CITY COUNSEL'S
 OPINION SOUGHT
Ruling Asked on CIassi- ficatiOn of Truckers,
 Drivers

Corporation Counsel Charles s. OConnor looked out on 1888 today and the rain which fell this morning. He was studying a request by Mayor Frank Hayes on request by Con- troller Sherwood L. Rowland for a ruling on whether it was right for trucks and drivers to be combined in payroll classification.
 "Ho, huIn," sighed MT. O'Connor.
 Later today ne will receive a re- quest for a ruling on whether the payments of the city must be ap- proved by the board of finance, writ ten approval by majority of mem- bers. This is the result of Controller Rowland's refusal on advice of his personal accountant and office man. ager, and the added advice of mem- bers of the board of finance, to sign sheets showing payments made in December.
 Questions Authority
 The controller contended that pay mentS were made outside the au- thority of the former controller, Daniel J. Leary, to which Republican members of the board of finance gave answer that, in many cases, it was necessary fol the controller to make such payments, submitting the list of such dispensations for later action by the board.
 The controller was reminded that the affairs of his office might turn into stew of considerable aroma II he were compelled to wait action by the board of finance, meeting only every two weeks, by special vote, on certain due accounts calling for supplies for construction, for in- stance. The construction would be held up at cost to the city during such time as the controller was forced to wait action by the finance board, 1t was remarked.
 The corporation counsel sighed again, remarked that he had heard nothing more concerning the ap- peal he has pending about the right of Controller Rowland to hire and fire in his office.
 Congressional Find
 Meanwhile, the political urn cre- ated by the potential cremation of ten veteran employees in the con- troller'S office, gave of the smoke of embers of resentment over the possibility that some deserving Re- publican, some Independent Demo- crat of importance to the Congress Sional scheme of J. Warren Upson, might not be considered for the post of accountant. The possible hold over of James F. Purcell, active as- sistant in the controllers prime mystery of the missing papers," was in faint handwriting on the wall, subject to erasure under pres sure by Chairman Upson.
 "H0, Hum"
 The name of William J. Arm strong, the controllers accountant Thursday, (Mr. Purcell being "Friday') so far, came up for con- sideration after the controllers fail- ure to obtain money to pay MT. Armstrong, or others, to conduct the audit he demanded from the finance board.
 "Ho, hum," sighed MT. O'Connor. "I1l take them as they come"
