FAMILY WEALTH FUNDED.
Weltman Brothers Incorporate for
Mutual Protection.

New York, June 10.-The seven
Weltman brothers, Of this city, have
originated a protective policy for the
members of their immediate families.
Through their attorneys, Kantrowitz
& Esberg, 800 Broadway. the bro
theirs have formed the Weltman Fam
lily Fund, INCORPORATED. The fund
has at rs foundation a goodly sum Of
money, which will be added to each
year by the brothers and in case of
death of any one of them his will
bequeaths all to the fund. The pur-
pose of the Weltman Family Fund is
to provide money to aid any or all
members of the immediate family
who become helpless of in need, to
educate the children and 10 insure
suitable burials for all in the Welt
man lot.
The idea of this fund is somewhat
similar to the Rockefeller Founda-
ton, except that the Weltman wealth
is to be expended only for Immediate
relatives. The officers of the corpora
ton are the seven Weltman brothers,
six of whom are merchants. One
Nathan-a farmer. The brothers
say that should the plan work out
according to their expectations the
fund will grow to such proportions
that it's proceeds may be expended
upon all branches Of the fortunate
Weltman clan. At present all the
brothers are married and have chill
dren.

be better to wait until the new
budget came out.
Mr.. Crixell stated that In that time
the city would pay out a good sum OF
money to the county Jail. Mr.
Blackshear heartily endorsed Mr..
CriXeifs motion. The motion was
then voted on and carried.
Several o. Ked bills were ordered
paid.
M. Cobolini Asks for Investigation,
Mr.. Cobolini then read the follow
ing communication to the council:
To The Honorable Mayor and City
Council:
For the best interests of Browns
vile we should have harmony.
No mar is a patriot; politician or
merchant hat will not respect and
cherish public peace and public felic-
ity. Still, it is a public necessity to
discuss imparitally many public
questions.
The progressive element of today
will not evade a public hearing. The
right of the people is better analysed
by public Investigation. Whatever
may be the power of a man, either
assumed of conferred, when he is a
public servant, serving for pay or
serving for honor, he shall humbly
submit to the proper authority his
conventions, and never arrogate to
himself absolute decision.
] frankly stated that do not con-
Cur with Engineer Davis decision.
The street and bridge committee,
Mr.. Cain, Mr.. Crixell and Mr.. Browne
approved those claims without in
vestigating what facts may have in
the premises. Mr.. S%lattery and Mr..
McGary, citizen members of the CON-
mitee, and /, never did appear before
them, and never was requested to
do SO. This controversy, between the
~eX-chairman of the street and bridge
committee and the city engineer may
continue Indefinitely with nothing
more than an endless chain void Of
results.
The technical nature of the wood
paving subject makes it most diff
cult for those most interested-for
instance, the taxpayer, and the ma
jority of the members of the city
council itself, to understand. This
is simple. For lack of practical
ideas of their own, and for lack of
reliable, disinterested and practical
information from others, Mr.. Davis
article and Mr.. Cobolini's article will
not settle this complicated question.

have the same high respect for
Mr. Davis as Mr.. Davis has for me,
and there will be no love lost be-
tween two highly respected citizens
to ventilate their practical opinions
for the best interests of Brownsville
Mr.. Davis has a great amount Of
gray matter in his head-so have |.
Assertion ordinarily does not
prove anything Il be true or false:
what we need is facts and proof.
Respectfully yours,
LOUIS COBOLINI,
Alderman.
Mr.. Crixell stated that he hired
men to look after his business and
thought that they were competent
and felt that they were looking after
his business to the best of their abil-
ity, and hat the city had hired Mr..
Davis, a competent engineer, to look
after the interests of the city in re-
gard to engineering work and that
he thought that Mr.. Davis knew
more about it that Mr.. Cobolini. He
was therefore willing to take Mr..
Davis report as correct.
Mr.. Cobolini replied that he felt
sighted because he had not been
consulted in regard to the paving, al
though he was chairman of the street
and bridge committee. He further
remarked that he might be destroyed
politically, but not as a citizen, and
he would still stand for the best in
terests Of the city.
After some further discussion, the
subject was dropped.
Mr.. Cole informed the council shat
property in the paving dis
trict nave been requested to meet
with the city council next Monday
morning at ten O'Clock to consider
the question of assessments againsa
the property owners for their quota
of the cost of the paving.

have killed DR.. L, o. Thornhill, in

that the shooting took place at a

Doctor had refused to give the pre-

city council was held last Tuesday

first business to be transacted was
the election of city officers for the
year 1912. For a while things in

easy as falling on the ice. 1t was

But when it came to making new
marshal the song was sung in
double long meter in the key of six
flats. There were four nominees,
Milt Evans, Henry sammons, Bunk
Smith and r. A. Stone There were
two ballots, the first showing three
Sotes for Evans, one for Stone, one
for Sammons and one for Smith and
the second ballot was, as uncle Jim
said about his razor, just like it, A
cog had evidently slipped some
where, and having the members vote
in alphabetical order didn't help
little bit. The second ballot closed
the election for the time being and
the matter seems to have been in
