PATROLMAN MURPHY
To GET A PUBLIC
HEARING ON MONDAY
Mayor Declares He Will Not Pre-
side; Somebody Else Will
in That Case

After a breezy session yesterday
afternoon City Council once more
postponed action on Mayor Royals
resolution to remove Andrew E. Muir
ply as a patrolman and naming Jacob
Kinley as his successor, until Monday
afternoon, when another special ses-
sion will be held at 4 o'clock.
The Monday meeting will be held
at police headquarters and is intend
ed to be a public hearing of the
charges against Patrolman Murphy of
INSTRUMENTATION, disobedience to or
ders, failure to report at proper times
and otherwise acting in a manner
prejudicial to the discipline of the de-
partment.
Mayor Royal has stoutly declared
that he will not preside at a hearing
of Murphy, and has insisted that he
has heard his defense and that Col
onel Joseph B. Hutchison, Chief of
Police, has heard his defense and his
excuses repeatedly. The other Com
missioners declared to-day that they
will select one of their number to pre-
side if the Mayor declines to do so.
Mayor Royal refused pointblanll to
hear Murphy. IF Council wishes to
do so. it may, but 1 won't" he said.

Commissioners Lynch, Taylor and
Bowman declared again and again
that they will support the Mayor in
his request for Murphy's removal if
the charges are true, and that they
have pledged him all the support pos
sible to maintain the discipline of the
police force.
But every man ought to be at least
given a hearing. 1t is fair to no man
to dismiss him without a chance to

uonalist army I'm charge of the executive
power in Mexico. This was announced in
telegram from General Carranza to-

commander Of the division Of the north
west was held under arrest by Villa
oBREGON STILL CAPTIVE.
After receiving long message from
General Carranza, Rafael Zubaran,
head of the constitutionalist agency,
authorized the following statement:
"Contrary to Villas denial that he
had arrested General Obrcgon who
had gone to Chihuahua on a special
invitation from villa himself, the lat
'st official reports received from Mex
.co city this afternoon by the consti-
Hutionalist agency make clear that he
IS still being held in the territory CON
rolled by Villas forces
81 view of this unnjustifable act on
villas part, Carran2a took prccau-
.ionary measures to protect the rail
roads giving orders to discontinue
temporarily service over them to the
north Of Aguascalientes. Thereupon
villa asked the first chief for an i'm
m"diat" explanation of this act Car
:anza answered villa that before he
would vouchsafe him an explanation
he demanded on Villas part an ex-
planation Of Villas conduct in unwar-
'antably holding General Obregon.
NOT TO BE REPRESENTED
Instead of giving to Carranza a salts
factory explanation, Villa informed the
first chief that he had given orders to
halt Obregon at Torreon and that the
forces under Villa s command would not
be ropbscnted at the national convention
10 be held in Mexico City on October |
In conclusion Villa said he no longer rec
ognized Carranza the first chief of the
constitutionallsts.
This sudden break caused profound
sensation here. Secretary Bryan would
make no comment and White House Off
cials likewise were silent.
1t was generally understood, however
that President Wilson. who has set no
date for the departure of American forces
rom Vera Cruz, probably would delay
the evacuation.

Says He Is Willing to Purchase
the Power Plant.

Editor Eagle:
was very much interested in read
ing your able editorial in yesterdays
issue, THE Electrihcation of the In.
terurban."
Bryan's best welfare demands this
improvement. Power TO operate is the
fundamental factor To duplicate any
public service is not an economic prin.
ciple, but rather than retard progress.
II sometimes becomes necessary.
To sell the interurban to the power
company as suggested, would break
into plans which contemplate building
interurban lines out from Bryan into
territory rich in commerce that can
be added to Bryan's trade. My sug.
gestion would be that the city take
over the power plant and then sell
power to any industry that would add
to Bryan's commerce at cost of prodnc.
ton. Or if the city will not do this.
! am willing to purchaes the power
plant at fair valuation and electrify
the interurban.
