day qualified as alderman from Les
ward 10 till the vacancy caused by the
resignation of Alderman W. j. Gilman.
He was elected unaninl ousiy on tho
occasion OF the reores nlzatlon Of the
board Of aldermen Tuesday night.
The question OF the legality of the
election OF Colonel Csrundy was dis
cussed around city hall yesterday and
IL was pointed out thai the constitu-
ton specifically provides that no
member of council shall he elected 10
a position within lie gift of council
during his term or within one year
thereafter. An opinion 10 that effect
had been given in 1903 by City After
ney Pollard In the case of Councilman
Thomas II. Elicit whose colleagues
wished to elevate him to the board OF
aldermen.
In view OF the valuable services
rendered the city by Colonel Grundy
It is generally conceded that no Ques-
ton as to the construction of the
statute will arise and that he Will re-
sumo his duties as member of the
board and of the finance committee
