TO INVESTIGATE. PHONE
WORK AT PENITENTIARY
Building Com. of FreehoIders
Say installation Not Ordered.

The building committee of the Board
of Freeholders yesterday ordered that
the work of installing a local tele-
phone system at the county peniten-
tiary be stopped. Who authorized the
installation is not known, and Direc-
tor Evans and Chairman Roemmle. Of
the building committee, are going to
Investigate.
Recently Warden Martin, of the
penitentiary. requested the prison
committee to have phones placed in
the building and the committee in
structed Chairman Lacombe to confer
with the building committee, in whose
hands such work lies.
Mr.. Lacombe has made no report of
the matter. and even those members
Of the building committee who also
serve on the prison committee and
were at the p~enitentiary the day be-
fore were surprised to learn thai the
work had been started.
Director Evans learned that the in
s~tallation was going on when Warden
Martin asked permission to cut trees
at Overlook for use as telephone
poles. When the matter was first
spoken of it was understood that the
work would cose about Sl75. The UNI
authorized installation of telephones
going on now. it is said, will cost be-
tween $500 and $400.

TO INVESTIGATE
ASSESSMENTS
Alderman Welsh Declares Ger
tain Properties Were Not
Levied Upon at Real Value.

Impressed with the idea that GER
tain properties were not assessed at
their real value, Alderman Welsh,
at a meeting of the Common Coun-
ell last night. gave formal notice that
he will seek to have a committee APP
pointed to conduct an investigation
into the assessment on certain prop
critics. He will introduce a resolution
to this effect at the next meeting of
the council. He was not prepared to
take this action last night because
he feared that such a motion would
be defeated.
Alderman Archibald, chairman of
the finance committee, declared that
the committee was always ready and
willing to take up such cases and
would be glad to investigate any
case that Alderman Welsh might
have in mind.
With reference to the removal of
the city market by the City Plan.
ming Commission, it was suggested
by Alderman Biertuempfel that the
market should not be removed from
the centre of the city. Mulberry and
Commerce streets offered a desirable
place, he said. In this he was upheld
by several other members of the
council.
Whenever the civil service eligible
list is vacant the council will have a
right to make appointments, but
otherwise must choose from the list
even in making temporary appoint
ments. Word to this effect was re-
ceived from the Civil Service Com
mission, which will refuse to certify
salary lists unless this arrangement
Is carried out.
An appropriation of $3.50 was made
TO defray the expenses of Mayor
Jacob Haussling and a delegation of
city officials to the sixteenth annual
convention of the League Of Ameri-
can Municipalities, which will be held
at Buffalo on September is. 10 and 90.
The city comptroller was authorized
to issue forty-year bonds to the
amount of $27, 900. to date from Oc-
tober 1. for the erection of an addi-
ton to the Newton Street School.
While City Treasurer Elmer A. Day
Is on his vacation Chief Clerk John
J. Sugrue will act in his stead. Mr..
Days vacation will be from Septem-
Der 3 to 81.

HOLD UP BILLS TO SPUR
NURSES HOME BUILDERS
Freeholders Angered by Delay
on Soho Building.

Angered by what they consider I'M
necessary delay on the part of con-
tractors engaged in the construction
of the new nurses home at Soho,
the building committee of the Board
of Freeholders has notified them that
payment of their bills would be with
held until the work is completed.
The delay is the cause of much added
xpens to the county.
A petition from the laborers at the
Overlook Insane Asylum that their
wages be increased from $1,75 to 81
per day, which lahorers or the county
roads receive, was denied on the
grounds of dissimilarity of condi-
tions.
The price of IS per day for teams
employed at the asylum was raised
to $3.50 in consideration of the m
creased cost of food. A petition for
the increase was received from the
teamsters.
