Branches of Administration Expect ed to Clash Today a't Special Ses sion of the City Fathers. A special session of the City Council will bo held at 2 o'clock this afternoon to consider a report from the Executive Board relative to bide for fire apparatus. An animated discussion Is predicted, as the Council will be officially notified that the appropriations specified in the ordi nance were so arranged that the Board couldoot award the entire contract. The manner in which the Council makes appropriations has been repeatedly criti cized by Mayor Lane and the Executive Board, the Council at one time specify ing a certain amount for street brooms and making no appropriation for wagons in which to haul away the dirt. During his administration the Mayor has often charged that a certain faction of the Council studies up ways and . means to hamper him and his executive assistants. iLast Friday night, during a special in vestigating session of the Council Com mittee on Judiciary, Mayor Lane declared Councilman Bennett, the' chairman, as well as others, had done everything pos sible to annoy the Mayor. Mr. Bennett quickly denied the allega tions made by the Mayor, and said that the only reason the ordinance carrying annual appropriations were so worded as to compel expenditure of every cent in exact accord with specifications by the Council, "was to protect the city." . Mr. Bennett said It was "a matter of differ ence of opinion as to how best to- con serve the interests of the city." The session of Friday night was the stormiest for months. Mayor Lane ex plained to Councilmen Bennett and Cel lars, both members of the so-called "sol id ten," how the Council's appropriation ordinances work to defeat a progressive administration of the city's business af fairs. He took the ordinance appropriat ing certain sums for fire engines, and showed that every engine to be purchased was specified in the ordinance and a stip ulated sum fixed for each. Four engines were tobe purchased and in each case the appropriation fell justJSO below the lowest bid. " This is the situation that resulted in the call for a special meeting this after noon. Involved in the matter is also the question as to whether it is advisable to purchase the apparatus. Mayor Lane holding that the general fund faces a deficit, owing to the fact that certain corporations have refused to pa their taxes without legal proceedings. If tne appropriation ordinance is so amended by the Council that its terms will permit of awarding the contracts for' the engines, the Executive Board will then have to decide on the question of purchase, but if the ordinance is not amended, the Board is powerless to let the contracts. .

Nor ris, of New York, the representative of the Newspaper Publishers' Association, today repeated his statement before the House committee investigating the wood-pulp and print-paper industry, that the American paper manufactur ers bought large tracts of wood land in Canada, and charged thai Instead of cutting the timber on this land, "which they have bought almost with recklessness," they have gone into the market and artifically marked up the prices on themselves. He protested that the American consumers should not be saddled with the penalties of any such speculation. Mr. Norrls produced figures showing that there has been reduction in the price of wood pulp exported from Can ada He expresses the opinion that paper can be made for $20 a ton. The investigation will continue tomorrow. A telegram was read-from Her man Bidder, president of the Amer ican Newspaper Publishers' Associa tion, addressed to John Sharp Will iams, the Democratic leader in the House, stating that Judge Lacombe in New York had discharged the Manila & Fiber Paper Company, which had been brought before a grand Jury and ordered to produce its books. The com pany claimed that Its hooks had been given to an official, who had taken them to Europe. Continuing, the tele gram said: "They (the paper company) now claim that they have done everything in their power to recover the papers. "On this showing they were allowed to go free. What a farce. Our only -hope is the Stevens bill." Mr. Stanford (Wisconsin) asked John Norris, New York, who took the wit ness stand, if he regarded that tele gram showing the inability to prose cute the "Manila and Fiber Paper Trust" as a failure of Justice. "Not a failure, but a serious embar rassment," replied Mr. Norris. Washington The Senate Tuesday passed a House bill without amendment for the protection of game in Alaska. It provides for a license system under the Governor of Alaska, who Is to employ game wardens and to expend money collected from licenses in the protection of game.
