Commissioner Orvis having stated be-
fore the commissioners Monday that
he intended forcing Barweu to resign.
claiming that he is the tool of politi-
clans.
Orvis at the council session started
to read a lengthy affidavit in which he
sought to explain his position with ref
erence to BarwelPs printed statement
that two postponements of a civil ser
vice examination was due to Orvis' in
reference. In the midst Of Orvis'
reading Commissioner Diver moved to
adjourn and the council quit business.
Orvis has promised that he will
bring the matter up at every future
session OF the board. He insists he
will force Barwen to quit the civil ser
vice board
The previous sensation came when
Orvis sought to have Commissioner
Atterbery's Office as head of the police
health department taken from him be-
cause he alleged he had caught the
chief selling liquor in his drug store.
The issue was not forced to a vote be-
cause it was found that Atterbery's
support was such he could not be
ousted.

The accident occurred about G

on Fifth avenue, and the men crossed
the tracks in front of the east bound
car and then discovered a car rapidly
approaching in the opposite direction
Seeing that they were caught like rats
in a trap, there only chance lay in
shooting through the gap. With the
throttle thrown wide open the ma
chine leaped forward, but was unable
TO avoid the west bound car, and &
loud report followed when the tire ex
