BRIBERY CHARGE STlRS
ABERDEEN OFFICIALS
Declare Talk of Graft in Connection
With Fire Alarm Boxes Is
Absurd.

A stir has been created by reports
from Portland that officials connect
ed with the Star fire alarm system
had charged before the Portland coun-
ell fire committee that councilmen of
this city had been bribed to throw
out the Star boxes.
Mayor Benn, members of the coun-
Gil and especially the members of the
fire and light committee declare the
the charge absurd They say the
two systems failed to give satisfac-
ton after repeated trials even by the
Star men. The city was compelled
to abandon the Star boxes for the
reason that it would cost a great
deal to throw out the GameWell
switchboard, which had been install
ed before the Star boxes We're order
ed on lower bid, to be used in con
nection with Gamewell boxes.
