CITY ATTORNEY
MAKES REPLY
Refutes Attack by Health
Board Will Confer.

City Attorney G. c. Hommann in
an interview today on the attack b.
the Board of Health on his alleged
neglect in handling several legal
leases for the health department de-
clared that the reported charges are
outrageous, as he has no record Of
forty or more complaints filed with
him for action" and proposes to take
fthe matter up with President Justus
Kaletsch and other members of the
board before the next meeting, at
| which time 1t is the intention of the
board to pass a resolution providing
for a special attorney for the depart
ment.
According to the city attorney, the
board has taken similar steps before,
but the board at that time was in
terviewed by Mr.. Hommann and the
alleged differences settled. Mr.. HON
mann stated today that he will take
like action again and endeavor to
show the department that all COM
plants on hand at the present time
are receiving attention. He declares
he has received but few complaints
during the past few months and that
in nearly every instance the nuisance
has BEEN abated. Attorney HON.
mann asserts that only last week he
advised John Johnson, of the Feigen-
span Brewery Company, to abate a
nuisance on the company's property.
Mr.. Hommann questioned Robert
wv. Maean, a former commissioner
and during his term chairman of the
Judiciary committee, yesterday about
the charges and received a reply to
the effect that the committee had
never met with any serious legal set
back while he vas in office. The
board contends that legal matters
are neglected by counsel and desires
a special attorney be engaged. The
strong advocates Of such measure at
the board meeting on Thursday night
were Commissioners p. N. Kennedy
and George Wustefeld.
