SUSPECTS STILL HELD
Police Are Working on Clues in
Double Murder.

Although several suspects are still
being held by the police department,
Chief of Detectives John b. Kues-
pert asserted Friday that nothing
new had developed in the investiga-
ton of the Muessel-Chrobot murders

Rogers. He said that there has
been no cessation of efforts to To-
cate the slayers, but that there was
no strong lines of evidence to work
upon as yet.

FIRE CHIEFS REPORT.
Grief sibrers report. which

Grief Sibrels report. which was
submitted TO the board, follows:
Gentlemen:-Herew 1 respect
fully submit for your approval the
annual report OF the fire department
for the year ending Dec. 81, 1915.
wish tn call attention 10 the in
creased efficiency of the department
in the last few years. This is due
almost entirely to the addition of
motor apparatus and a few pieces
Of smaller equipment that were a
great help TO the department. And
the cost of the upkeep Of the pres
ent motor apparatus has very great
~ reduced the expense of the de-
partment.
The quarterly inspections OF the
business district and factories have
also aided in keeping the fire losses
at a minimum. Also the discipline
OF the department as a whole has
greatly improved.
/ wish TO recommend the pur-
chase of a 75-foot auto aerial truck
10 replace the three-horse service
truck which is now in service but in
poor condition. If this truck is con-
tinued in service for very long it VIII
need much repairing and the addi-
ton of many new ladders The
decrease in the upkeep would be at
least one half.
Needs Pumping Engine.
also wish to recommend the pur-
chase of an auto pumping engine,
this to be used in the outlying dis
trict where water mains are small
and hydrants few This condition
means the laying of long lines OF
hose. thus greatly reducing the wa
ter pressure, and sometimes mean
ing the entire destruction Of build
ings in these districts. This pump
could also be used to a very great
advantage in the downtown district.
Any one of the several types OF
pumps are capable OF throwing
a one and one-half to one and three
quarter inch stream from the
ground on top of our high buildings
thus adding efficiency TO our depart
ment. / would also recommend the
appointment Of six additional men
to positions in the department.
In conclusion 1 wish TO state il has
been a pleasure as we'll as a duty
for myself and members of the de-
partiIent to perform our obligations
to the city and 1 desire to take this
opportunity of extending my thanks
10 his honor the mayor, the board
Of safety, the city council, the super
intendent of the water department
other city officials and the public at
large for the many courtesies and
the hearty cooperation extended
the past year
Respectfully submitted. Irving w.

be held, the call having been made by
the state central committee, the high
est party authority. This action was
decided upon after meeting of the
committee had been duly called and
held The meeting is not called as a
fractional gathering, but an invitation
is extended to republicans who have
the future national welfare of the par
ty at heart. The convention will rec
ommend candidates for delegates to
the republican national convention and
for the consideration of other matters
of national Importance TO the republi-
can party.
Vernon county, by the terms of the
call, is entitled to thirteen delegates in

state has taken similar action in the
matter of holding a convention to
choose delegates to the national nomi-
mating convention for president and
vice president.
