There is a good deal of speculation
as to where the Commissioners will
put the knife when they begin to
cut expenses next month. In order
that there may be a clear under
standing of the salaries and depart.
ment expenses, we here give the fig
ures for the years 1913 and 1914,
taken from the official reports.
Some increases were made in sala-
ries in January 1914, but they were
not very material.
The commissioners will be paid
$500 each and the question is natur-
ally asked, where this money will be
saved? 1t is rumored that some sal.
aries are to be increased, which will
make the problem of retrenchment
more difficult. Under the new law,
there will be no officers for stated
terms, but officials will be merely
agents to be paid what they are
worth:
1t is understood that the Offices
of collector 50, 900. treasurer $3.50 and
assessor, nearly $500, will be abol-
ished, thus saving SO, $50. Then $3.50
more VII be saved in salaries paid Z

councilmen, making s4,2O0. 1t is
rumored that the chief of police
may be increased from $50 to 500
and one or more of the policemen
dropped. There are 10 patrolmen
paid $40 month and a night chief
paid SIS.
The Commissioner of Works
may also abolish the Office of engi-
neer, 1000, and employ an engineer
by the day while needed. The Com
missioner of Works will have
charge of the Workhouse, where ex-
penses ran to nearly $1,000 last year.
The contracts for water and lights
are fixed upon a basis that offers but
little opportunity for retrenchment.
The same is true of the fire depart.
ment, which has always been econ.
omically conducted and maintained.
Money saved will have to be saw
ed In the streets, workhouse, police
and executive departments. With
commissioners giving all of their
time to the city's business and in a
position to require actual services
for salaries paid, the public expects
great reforms.

Germany'S Defamation to Inf-

cellor's speech has completely dashed
any hopes the peace advocates may
have held on an early termination OF

fore the onslauVhts of the Bulgar1

French, and compelling them to give
up advanced positions.
According to reports from Saloni,-
XII, the retirement is being carried:
out in an orderly manner, but hOWyr
far it is to continue is much specUs-,
lation. Opinion is divided as tn
whether it would not be better tGA
abandon the en- ire expedition or re-
tain Saloniki as a base. The latter
alternative would it is believed, fu1-.
Their endanger the relations of the

even now are far from satisfactory

The undesirables said that thoy

the Eastern mill. They were on
the picket line in force and real
trouble threatened when one OF
them threw a rock. Fortunately,
the police, who have been rather
lax on the picket line of late, re-
ceived a tip and were on the
picket line in numbers. Only a
few blows were struck before all
of the Industrial Workers of the
World were rounded up and lodg-
ed in the city Jail.
