To the Honorable the Mayor and
Board Of Trustees of the City of
New iberia, La.
Gentlemen
1t becomes my duty to advise you,
as your Engineer on the work involv-
ed under the contract executed be-
tween yourselves and Leon Dreyfus
of Date October 18th, 1919, that the
said Leon Dreyfus has persistently
refused to observe the specifications
called for by the contract and that l,
pursuant to Article IS of the specifi-
cations in question, on the 26th., day
of May, 1920, served on him a written
notice of his violation of these speci-
fications and therein made upon him
specific demands, which l was auth
orized to make under the said specifi-
cations.
! attach hereto a copy Of the writ
ten notice referred to.
Notwithstanding this notice, Leon
Dreyfus has arbitrarily and dogmati
cally refused to give any heed thereto
and has proceeded and is proceeding
his work in absolute disregard Of my
instructions or my views and direc-
tions as your Engineer.
On the Goth, day of May, 1920,
served a written notice on Jules Drey-
fus, bondsman in the premises for
Leon Dreyfus, calling to his attention
the derelictions Of Leon Dreyfus and
demanding that he comply with the
specifications or affect a compliance
with the specifications, and notwith-
standing the fact that more than
forty eight (4S) hours have elapsed
since said notice was given Jules
Dreyfus, the said Leon Dreyfus and
the said Jules Dreyfus are utterly
disregarding the same and are as
Stunning to execute the contract in
question in utter defiance Of the spe-
cifcations.
beg to submit Article 16 of the
specifications for your official action
and to state in that condition that
under the circumstances, it is Idle for
you to have an engineer on the work
as Leon Dreyfus is ignoring him and
defying his orders and instructions,
as though he were free to do and act
as suits his purposes.
Respectfully submitted,
w. X. Frantz, Engineer.

Mr.. Villermin requests an opinion
from City Attorney L. 0. Hacker as
to the legality of the proceedings
with reference to contract OF Leon
Dreyfus and City of New IBERIA.
A communication from Mr.. j. +.

dered filed. Said communication be-
ing in reference to contrart entered
into between MIR. Crusel and the City

of date October oath, 1919.
On motion of Mr.. Villermin second

mously, the City Attorney was in
structed to 90 into the matter OF CON
tract and the failure on Mr.. Crusels
part to deliver the amount of oil
agreed upon within the time limit OF

against Mr.. J. Edward Crusel for da-
IMAGES sustained by his failure to
comply with his agreement,
On motion of Mr.. Villermin second

New Iberia, La, June 2, 1920.
The Board of Trustees of the Clty
of New Iberia convened this day IN
special session at 10 A. NJ, with May
or H. S. Sealy presiding. The pur-
pose of the meeting was to transact
any and all matters needing attention.
City Attorney L. o. Hacker renders
the opinion as to annuling the con-
tract of Mr.. Leon Dreyfus, in con-
formity with resolution offered by
Mr.. Sealy, that in his opinion such
action by the Mayor and Board OF
Trustees is premature; the notices
given by the Engineer to the Contrac-
tor and the bondsman of the contrac-
tor, as appears by said notices are the
prerequisite for the Board ito act on,
not in the annulment of the contract
which would be premature, but in or
der to make such inquiries and to
give chance to the Contractor to be
heard by the Board, because being a
party to the contract he cannot be
condemned without hearing.

SUNSHINE BRINGS OUT
LARGE NUMBER Of VOTES
Hart Seems to BE F'avorite Among
Republican Candidates-MayOr
Nlathes Leads Democrats.

The rain of early this morning
gave way to the sunshine, so that a
heavy vote is being cast. At noon
nearly half of the registered vote
was cast. which shows that the inter-
est Is lively.
Governor Hart seems to be the IA.
vorite among the republican candi-
dates for governor. although Hartley
and Conan have apparently devel-
oped more strength than they were
supposed to have in this city.
Among the democrats Mayot
Mathes seems the favorite, although
Senator Judd is receiving sorae
votes. The democratic vote is very
light, owing to the fact that there
are feew contests in thir party, and
many very lively contests among the
republican local candidates. Several
of the democrats are writing in
names on the county and Legislative
tickets where no one has filed. Ii
any persons whose names are SO
written in receive ten per cent OF the
democratic vote cast they will be
legally nominated according to the
new law passed in 1919.
p. NJ. Troy for state senator, Mrs.
Julia Waldrip and DR.. D. o. Nugent
for representatives. N. w. Mottingsi
and w. A. Perkins for commission
ers, are among the names being writ
ten in. Some also have written IL
the names Of r. M. Fuller for clerk,
A. s. Cation for. auditor r., E. Bakel
for treasurer. B n s. Sawyer f6'
prosecuting attorney. l.. e. Duval
for assessor and B. r. McClelsn To-
superintendent of schools. None o
these parties have sought the Offices
but they are being drafted by the;l
democratic friends to fill the Offices
for there is an excellent chance o
the election of some or possibly al
of Oem.
The third party is in session ant
will name a full ticket. In three
cornered fight the democrats will
without doubt fare as we'll as tn
factions of the opposition.

self justice as q speaker, but as his
voice gradually improved he carried
his audiences with him everywhere.
At Spokane, early in the. morning.
he spoke to large meeting Of first
voters, with an additional audience
of thousand or more. At the sub
sequent formal meeting at the Spo-
kane fair grounds he had an enor-
nous audience which soon caught
the spirit OF his speech and became
enthusiastic. At the smaller towns
along the way throughI the state ex
ceptionally large crowds were out to
hear the short, rear platform ad-
dresses. At Walla Walla Governor
Cox had two very large meetings. the
opera house and the high school
auditorium being packed to over
flowing. At Walla Walla. in addi-
ton to discussing the League Of Ma
tions. he dwelt on reclamation and
agricultural matters with an appar-
entity thorough understanding Of his
subjects. and audiences made up
largely Of persons nominally of the
republican faith applauded him
heartily and urged him to continue
speaking far beyond the time limits
set.
Despite bad weather. Governor
Cox had large and enthusiastic
meetings at Bellingham and Everett.
At Tacoma, the plans for monster
meeting in the famous Stadium were
upset by a heavy rainstorm and the
combustion incident to effort to hur-
riedly make arrangements for a
meeting elsewhere. Notwithstand-
ing the unfavorable conditions. hum

At Seattle Saturday night, tho
meeting was a tremendous success,
one Of the most pronounced success
es inded in the political history Of
the state. The Arena Auditorium
was packed long before the hour Of
the meeting. with all the people that
could be permitted under the law to
nter. and probably two thousand per-
sons gathered on the streets outside.
L hoping to hear q few words from the
democratic nominee. Governor Cox
attended his speech more than an
hour beyond the time intended to
give to It.
Despite inclement weather and the
temporary impairment Of Gov. Cox's
speaking voice. the tour of the DEM
ocratic nominee through Washing
ton was q gratifying success. and
there is no doubt about the good i'm
preston he made upon the electorate
of the state.

''Death Wind" Whose Lightest Touch
Brings Ruin, Explained by Scientists

Somewhere in Alaska cold wind
blew up late last week and wandered
southeast over British Columbia into
the United States. In southeastern
Nebra ska it blew over a warm, low
lying wind from Arizona and New
Mexico that was starting northeast.
The warm wind tried to rise above
the cold breeze, as was natural, but
the velocities of the two set up a
struggle
A gyrating, whirling motion was set
up. The aerial whirlpool grew in in
tensity and early Sunday morning a
group of full fiedged tornadoes swept
past Sioux City, Ia, headed east.
Sunday afternoon they arrived in the
middle west to wreak havoc on Chi
cago, northern Illinois, northern Ind
lana and Darke county, Ohio. The
slightest passing touch of it wrecked
many homes in northern Wayne
county.
Sundays tornadoes were typical Of
that most diminutive yet most violent
and destructive of storms. 1t is a
small storm within what meteorolog-
lists call an eXtratropical cyclone, and
usually originates from 20 to 500 miles
from the center of the larger disturb
ance. An extratropical cyclone is
simply vast wind center marked on
weather maps as 'low" areas.

nado is the black, funnel shaped
spout" that reaches down from the
low hanging masses of dark clouds,
whirling and dancing as it carries de-
structiOn in it's wake.
1t is always associated with violent
thunder showers and is usually accom-
panied by hail, squall winds, and ex-
cessive thunder and lightning. 1t al
most always comes during the warm
months of the year and the hottest
part of the day.
1t is usually less than 1000 feet in
diameter and the average speed with
which it covers the ground is SO miles
an hour, resulting in it's passing a
given point in a half minute. The
whirling velocity of tornado has
never been accurately measured, but
it has been estimated at from 200 to
500 miles an hour.
Tales of the freakish behavior of
tornadoes are without number. They
have been known to drive straws
through solid timbers and timbers

WANT 81
HOURLY, IN RICHMOND

Journeyman plumbers of Richmond
have presented a demand for 81 an
hour and double time for all work
over eight hours. These demands re-
suited from a meeting held by the
plumbers union last week.
Master plumbers are undecided as
to what disposition to make of the
plumbers demands. The present rate
is S5 cents an hour and time and a
half for all work over eight hours.
Double time is paid for work done
after midnight and on holidays.
Master plumbers are understood to
be disposed not to grant the demands.
Master plumbers rates are $1.35 per
hour and Is per cent wage increase
would mean a Is cent increase to the
public.
A committee composed Of H. H.
Meerhoff, l.. E. Stanley and j. H. Me
woehner, will meet a committee from
the plumbers union late Tuesday
afternoon. The situation will be gone
over.
