Council Discusses Crime.
The shooting of four policemen by
Krakus was discussed by members OF
City Council, sitting as a committee
of the whole last night, and Il is
probable that il wiz be considered at
the session Of that body again tomor-
row night The matter OF Council
aiding in the relief fund was brought
up by Councilman Slower, who said
he had learned that a fund for the
wounded officers has been started and
the Governor of the State has deemed
it of sufficient importance to head
the subscription list with a generous
contributed He also stated that
the citizens of Wilmington think IL
advisable to take up this proposition,
and he thought II would be we'll for
the City Council TO do whatever it
can toward helping in this worthy
cause. MIR. Stover said II would be
we'll worth their while TO consider
IL on Wednesday evening when they
meet in committee of the whole, and
to then determine what relief the Coun-
Gil can offer.
The other members of Council ap-
peared to be In hearty accord with
this movement, but IL was not dis
cussed further at last nights meet
ing. II was agreed by the individual
members who we're spoken to after
the meeting that the city should, and
most likely WILL provide a sum for
| the cause of the wounded policemen.
| Just how much this will amount to
could not be stated last night. but it
| is not thought the Council will con-
slider anything less than $1,000 for the
general fund While their right to so
appropriate money may not be clear
in every detail, the members hold
that they have as much authority to
provide $1,000 for the benefit of city
! policemen who have been wounded In
the brave performance of their duties
as they have to donate money to the
various private institutions which
the city helps annually.
