COMMITTEE PROVIDED
Mayor To Name Nine To Devise
Ways And Means In Water
Stock Sale Controversy.
APPEALS FOR AID.
City Fathers Asked To Subscribe To
Society For Protection Of Children
Other Matters.

By q resolution which the CITY
Council adopted last night the propo-
sition of devising ways and means for
the municipality to procure posses
sion of the States holdings of the
stock of the Annapolis Water Com
pany will be put up on a special
committee composed not alone of
mmbers of the Council, but with a
representation from the citizens of
Annapolis.
The resolution, which was offered
by Alderman Thompson, of the Second
ward, authorized the Mayor to name
a committee of nine members, two of
who shall be the city's executive and
the City Counsellor. The other seven
members will be three members of
the Council and four citizens. The
Mayors appointments to this commit
tee will be announced in day or two
and will Immediately get down to
work
Although the very vital question of
the States stock in the company oc-
cupied considerable time and discus
sion during the session of the Council
last night, nothing new was brought
out and the gist of the action was en-
bodied in the adoption of Alderman
Thompson's resolution.
Mayor Strange, as chairman of the
special committee named at the last
session of the Council to wait on the
Board of Public Works as to the sale
of the States shares, reported that
the committee had gone to Baltimore
to lay the matter before that body, but
had been unable to do so and had call
ed on Governor Crothers as one men,
ber. The Governor had promised to
lay the question before the Board of
Public Works at its next ses sion and
to notify the Annapolis committee of
the time and place of hearing. The
Governor also expressed himself as
favoring the city getting possession of
the stock when the State gives it up.
The Council, on petition, granted
an abatement TO the Mulhail estate for
the building on the property at Prince
George and Dock streets, which build
in was destroyed by fire last year.
Z Inc request of the Maryland Society
for the Protection of Children from
Vice and immortality for subscrip-
'tion from the city for the advancement
of this worthy work, was referred to
q special committee composed of the
Mayor and Aldermen Linthicum and
CLANCY.
A petition for aid was also re-
ceived from the Mayor and Common
Council of Black River Falls, Wis,
which was recently almost wiped off
the map by fire and flood, but this was
simply ordered filed.
On motion of Alderman Myers the
matter of improving the bed of Clay
street extended which the recent rains
had made almost impossible was re-
ferred to the Street Committee and
Counsellor.
To the same committee, with power
to act was referred the proposal to
bulkhead Brewer street at Spa creek.
Alderman Zelller brought up the
matter of cutting off the long point of
the sidewalk at the corner of Main and
Francis streets, and throwing this into
the street bed, and the matter was
referre1 to the Street Committee and
the Counsellor for report and recon-
mendation.

discerned in the darkness a man strug-
Cling to free himself from the grip
of two other men, both white. Off,
Ger Smith called out, but his call being
unheeded,h he fired bis pistol and prob
ably saved a man from a watery
grave. The two thugs left and it was
found they made good their escape as
they have not been apprehended.
Officer Smith found Thomas Thomp-
son, former quartermaster in the
navy, had been badly beaten and rob-
bed of 800, that sum having been
aid him yesterday upon his completion
of twenty years service in the navy

sn after having beaten him almost into

him overheard when discovered by
Officer Smith.
The injured man was taken to the
Emergency Hospital, where his
wounds were dressed and be is still in
bad shape and unable to leave for
his home in Washington, as was his
purpose.
