about half an inch in thickness. Put

meat chopper, adding at the same
time one onion and such pieces OF meat

wooden toothpick. Bake the potatoes
in a moderately hot oven until they
have been thoroughly cooked and serve
them very hot, being careful to remove
the toothpick before bringing them to
the table.

That was where the civil service &
commission got hit. Previously the =
commission had declared it was the
only proper inquisitorial body, as the
council committee couldn't admins
ter an oath.
With this prop knocked out, there
was no way to take witnesses from
the committee, and Capt. Coffin sug
gested that when his body finished
with witness it would be sent to the
council, if the council would recipro-
cate.
Mrs. Eaton, asked why she did not
pay Mrs. Rowe in currency, said that
Mrs. Rowe had declared she wanted
checks.
Aid. DePriest wanted to know what
influence Mrs. Eaton used to get her
job. She replied that it was a reward.
for her work in the campaign. The
alderman also wanted to know
whether Mrs. Eaton was living with
her husband, but was shut off.
Seymour Stedman, attorney for
Mrs. Eaton, followed her on the
stand, and made the general state
ment that the city hall should be
cleared out from top to bottom. He
detailed his conversations with Mrs.
Eaton about the alleged payments to
Mrs. Rowe, and said he learned of
them when the first is alleged to have
been paid.
The mayor and Mrs. Thompson did
not appear at either hearing. The
mayor said he might appear later be-
fore the civil service commission, but
would not notice the council commit
tee.
In careful detail, the story of how
Mrs. Eaton paid an alleged "rake-off'
to Mrs. Rowe was told by Fulton
Gardner, associate of Seymour Sted-
man, before the civil service commits
sion.

Mrs. Fitzgerald, in investigator, sus-
pended for six days and then dis
harged by Mrs. Rowe.
The money she says she paid to
lrs. Rowe was regarded as a loan,
Mrs. Eaton testified. She said she
expected to get it back from the city
comptroller.
But the big show came before Mrs.
eaton took the stand and while the
aldermen were arranging the prelim-
1aries to the hearing. .-..-~-
Though Capt. Coffin of the civil
servcice commission did not start
battle with the council committee,
tamely offering to trade witnesses
who appeared before his commission,
several aldermen who are strong sup
porters of the administration be-
came beligerent and offers to fight
were frequent.
When the council committee con-
vened Aid. Mccormick noticed in
front of Aid. De Priest, colored repre-
sentative from the second ward,
letterhead bearing the name of Frd
Lundin, official job dispenser of the
administration.
Does that letter contain your in
structions?" asked Mccormick.
De Priest hotly replied that he nev-
er received instructions.
81 never make perjury charges
against people hwo talk about me-"
declared De Priest, "but l am able to
obtain personal satisfaction"
Mccormick replied that he was
ready to accept an invitation.
Then Aid. Miller got his back up.
He objected to the insinuations that
were made against De Priest, and
added that he, too, was able to do a
bit of fighting if necessary, and could
defend himself.
Despite these warlike remarks,
