RIOT BY IDLE DOES NOT TAKE PLACE Chief of Police Slover Stays at City Hall, 40 Patrolmen Within Reach. ONE ASKS MAYOR'S PARDON Srrrl Pay lnwi Authorized, fleck ,Vtrr SjMom HourM. IVnHj for Crrjlnc W'empons More Rljrld. Chief ef Police Slover wu present at the session of the City Council yester day morning and remained through the nt!r tneetlns: keeDinr hl eyes on the ait prnnnnlsef wtth a view to taklnK prompt action In case of an invasion of the chambers br Socialists or members of the Industrial Workers of the World A tareat had been made to Mayor Rushlight the previous day that, unless something was dune to relieve Jobless men. 20O0 unemployed would march on the city tiau ana siri wuu Before the meeting of the Council. Jn'lu. KnlsDel. who calls hlmseir a so cialist, and who was one of those who threatened to disturb the Council ses sion, called upon Mayor Kushltjrht and apologized for his part In the meet ins; of the day before. He said he was sorry that he had ever associated him self with Ed Lewis, a street haranguer. and said that Lwls had "been canned out of the Socialist party" and Is in bad standing; all around. Chief Ready for Tremble. Chief Slover was at the City Hall trlfht and early yesterday mora Inn. looking- over the around, and taking; observations. He remained until the Council adjourned, at 1 P. M. Plain clothes policemen were on hand for part of the session, in addition to Pa trolman Carr. who is bailiff for the Council. "Is It true that you had arrange ments ready to cope with an Invasion of aKltatorsT was 'asked of Chief Slover. "Tes, I took precautions." he replied. "T did not have many men at the City Hall, but there was a band practice, at tended by about 40 big; policemen, and ( knew where they were meeting-, in ree I needrd them." The Chief's remark about the band practir appears significant, and is ukfn to mean that he bad 40 policemen in reserve to be called into immediate artlon In case of need. The Council session was serene, how ever, and except for a few tribes be tween members of the Council, nothing out of the ordinary occurred. The gal lery was comfortably filled, among thuse present being a few Socialists. Salary Rises Graate. The most important business of the Council, perhaps, was the passage of an appropriation ordinance, carrying funds for the operation of the various departments during 11I, aggregating close to $3,000,000. A number of city employe, received increases of pay, which will total about 150.000 during the year. Chief Klectrtc-lan Savarlan and three linemen In the fire depart ment were granted increases. Mr. Sava rlan from 1150 to 1173 a month and the others from $110 to $i:S a month. The salary of Deputy Health Officer Bee man was Increased from 1125 to SISO a month. These Increases were brought up on the floor of the Council, but several others which were granted were recommended by the waya and means committee. The purchase of the Fleck water sys tem, a private plant In the southeastern section of the city, was purchased at a cost not to exceed lli.oy). negotiations for this to be made br the Water Board. This will give relief to residents In the vicinity, who have been suffering , for lack of water supply, as Pull Itun win be served to them when the con nections are made. Councilman Joy had been asking the Council to do this for several weeks. Councilman Baker helped to get the ordinance passed yes terday by making a telling argument for It. Wespss Peaalty lierraart. Ad ordinance was passed, authoris ing the City Treasurer to collect for the city the first per cent of funds collected on street improvements, this to be used for engineering fees, as re quired by the charter. Heretofore the city has taken the last money col lected. By unanimous rote of the Council, an ordinance by Councilman Burgard was passed, making the carrying of concealed weapons punishable by a fine of not less than $50 or more than $500 or Imprisonment not less than IS days nor more than 200 days or both such fine and imprisonment. The Council also authorized the en largement of the health and police committee from three to five members. Councilman Jennings. Its chairman, has been 111 for a long time and it has only hd two members to do the work, it waa explained. A report waa submitted by the spe cial committee on public markets, fol lowing the published outline of the plans of the committee as given In The Orrgnnlan yesterday.

"Little Eva," About to 3 love to Sub urban Home, Wins Against Joy' Plao to Rar Klne and Hen. Councilman George L. Baker, familiarly known as "Little Eva," has staked his last hopes on the gentle cow, the chicken yard and the fresh near-country air that abounds In the regions about the southeastern section of the city. Having purchased for him self and family a lot there and begun the erection of a home with a view to Installing the appurtenances named. he vociferously objected and witn re markable success, to an ordinance by Councilman Joy. designed to put the noor cow ami the chickens out or ousi nss In a neighborhood dangerously close to that of the Baker place. Councilman Joy. in the session of the City Council yesterday, asked that an ordinance, embracing the territory from East Twenty-sixth to East Fortieth streets and from Hawthorne avenue to Holgate street, be passed, and that no more barns be allowed there. -I can't see why Joy wants to put this through, lamented "Little rva" Baker. "Lots of poor resklents have to depend very largely upon their cows and chickens to support them. Who knows but what the same fate will befall me?" "Why. Eva. what do you meanT queried a colleague. "Business dull? Or do you expect your folly to bring you to those straits?" "I expect to go to heaven tomorrow night." replied Baker, "but. In case I fall to get there. I want this cow ordi nance thing killed before I start." The ordinance was voted down and the lowing klne will browse In the Baker yard accordingly. ARTIST DRAWS ADMEN G. n.
