st one and not al the other? 1 am sin seeking that information, 1 also ask Why was my name dragged into this affair." l am still seeking that information, IT anybody has any good reason for using my name, l should like to know fl.
 "f think that the above statements will straishten out several questions you have in mind.
 Yours truly,
 w. II. JUDD. Mayors Answer The mayors reply ia as follows: Alderman William H. Judd.
 City.
 Dear Slr.--Your letter Of August 1. which l have received today has been carefully read by me and I appreciate your giving me such facts as you have at your command in relation to the charges you made about gambling at carnivals.
 II appears clear that there Is no foundation of truth in any of the charges or insnuations made that the chief of police or any other police de- partment official or city official was involved in any of these charges. I believe that all of our municipal executives as well as city employees are honest in their duty and faithful to their trust. Should any of them be found guilty of hetraying their oath of public office or of committing a breach of duty, they shall always be dealt with accordingly by the city administration.
 In the absence of information which would in any way show your state ments to be founded on fact. I shall consider that there Is no need of car rying on further correspondence in the matter.
 Very truly yours.
 A. M. PAONESsA,
 Mayor.
