it was pointed out that another

"Of course sympathy for the lit

verdict" stated the juror, "but we
also took into consideration the
fact that Filigno was the man on

sent the telegram to Gurley Flynn,

the fight, and that consequently he
was the greater offender"

VERY BAD WAY Of

which installed the cremation plant
for the city. J. w. Chute of Berke-
ley, CAL, who filed the claim with
the board of public works this
week, says that he rendered a bill
against the city at the time the
work was completed, after having
the bill o. KID by J. T. O'Brien,
secretary of the board of public
works at the time, and A. w. Mer-
rift, then crematory superintend-
ent. There is no record at the city
hall of these extras having been or
dered, but Chute pointed them out
while here to the present superin-
tendent, G. d. Harmon.
81 sent letter after letter here to
Mr.. O'Brien, but received no an
swer," said Chute. Finally the
house got tired waiting and sent
me here to look up the bill. The
work was ordered by Merritt and
O'Brien, Merritt suggesting the ex-'
tras and O'Brien concurring in the
suggestion. Had l known as much
as l do now l would have protected
myself against such contingency
as has arisen by insisting on writ
ten order for the extras.
Superintendent Harmon of the
crematory has refused to o. K. the
bill. J. T. O'Brien, the former pur-
chasing agent, processes to have no
recollection of the transaction and
says that all Of the crematory i'm
provement matters were left entire
ly to Merritt.
The crematory in the year 1908
lost the city $24,507.58 and If the
bill that has now turned up is add
ed to this enormous deficit it will
add still further to the grief that
has come from this department.
