Graft charges made against Walter

will be Investigated at tbe regular
meeting of the fire committee of the
executive board Thursday afternoon.
The official la asked to show to the
committee that he was .not financially
Interested In certain hydrants of local

rejected the Ludlow hydrants. Mayor
Lane said he was told that Phillips

Mr. Phillips Indignantly denied that
there was any truth In the storv and
aeciared mat tne charges were absurd.
r ire Chief cararbell also ridicules the
idea and. Mayor lane ooesn t appear to
take the charges against the Inspector
seriously.

Walter O. Haines of the Ludlow Valve
6c Manufacturing company, appeared in
the committee-room and he and Mr.
Phillips Indulged in a wordy discus
sion in which the voioes of both were
raised and excited at times. Haines
said he did not wish to prefer any
charges again Phillips but that he had
heard from three distinct sources that
the hydrant Inspector was being paid
to reject the hydrants furnished by
Dr. E. V. Hoovsr. mayor of Roeeburg.

The startling Insinuations of Haines
were but a side Issue of the real pur
pose of the meeting which was brought
about through a resolution made by
Thomas GlVireene at tbe last executive
board session.
Mayor Takes Kes-ponslblltty.
The purpose of the special meeting
was to find out who was responsible
for. the delay In accepting or reject
ing the 86 hydrants furnished by the
Ludlow company to the city, which
lay on the street from May 1 to August
13. Greene said It hurt his feelings
to find that these hydrants were lying
there idle when he had .personally 'as
sured anxious cltlsens last summer that
there were none available.
In Asking for the Investigation Mr.
Greene declared that whoever should
be found responsible for the delay
should be "fired."
Mayor Lane assumed responsibility
for the hydrants not having been ac
cepted sooner and told the committee
that In the future he would be re
sponsible for delays. '
The mayor remarked that ha per
haps should be Impeached but that prior
to the Investigation he did not know
it was his duty to see to the accept
ance or rejection of the hydrants. I
