Another matter which has been closelv watched for some time and which will no doubt furnish food for discussion tonight, is the petition of Rev. Charles Wilson Haker asking that Marshal Williams be reprimand ed for the action he took In entering the Parish house of the Kplsropal Church and stopping what Rev. Haker says was a private dance. The proposition bus been referred and re referred and as a befitting finale Mayor Hire placed the matter In the haiids of the cohneil acting as a com mittee of the whole. On account of the Mayor's action "side-steps" are out of order, and some definite action will have to be taken by the council tonight.
