A somewhat amusing Incident oc
curred nt llio council meeting last
nlglit when thu matter of thn resig
nation bf .Patrolman Hilton t waa
dragged in by Conncllinnn Votmor.
He' wanted Mayor WJloy to toll him
wnothor Mr. Hilton wm ntllt on tho
payroll or tlm city. Mr. Wiley stated
that ho had asked (or and rocolvod
Mr, Hllton'a resignation and It wu
submitted to tho council last Mon
day ovenlng. "Woll. whydldn't you
Kot uilo act Upon It?" demanded tho
councilman from tho fifth. Whal.thn
mayor' answer would havo been rd
malm a mystery, for Uogerdus mov
od that llio resignation bo accepted.
t noemtng to loso sight of tho fact that
It , wa no moro before tho council
then than It wai u wook ago, Evident
ly'lt was thought thlfl wa a poor In
atrumont with which to jlln tho holo
thcah counclltnon want to put tho
mayor In, o docldod to postpone tho
taak for a more propltloua raomont.
Hut Volmor was out with hla war
paint on and whon ho could not
"hanit" anything on tho mayor, ho
waa going to put It on tho clilof of
pollco.
fllnco ho and Ilogardu vero foiled
Inlholr efforts to not Chief Wltaoh's
acalp by havlnic him removed from
tho pollco force, they havo been
aeoutlng around to aeo If thoy could

f, Tho councilman from tho fifth ward
atatcd tho chief rcruscu 10 mow mm
the" pound book, but whon qucstlhn-
od by tho mayor had to admit that ho
did not rofnao to ahow tho booka
.m T.nn.rv. 101. to dato. For
Information prior to that dato, tho
chief referred tho Invostigntor 10 u
roport on fllo with tho pollco Judge.
Tho iixcltabloJ rcpreaontatlTO from
tho fifth laborod hard to evado tho
facta, but tho mayor lod him gently
i.nt firmiv to tho nolnt at laauo, much
to hla discomfiture, a well a to the
nniiithinnmcnt of tho othor mombora.
Hut Ilka tho ghost of old. Volmor
would not down. Ha wnntoa 10 kiiow
about Wyun wa ho on tho payroll!
When Informod that ho had been
auapondod ae n result of tho Incident
urrouudlnR tho raid of which ho,

Intonation Booming to aay that alnco
tho fifth 'ward representative wna a
bona fldo momber of tho party that

wna. It would bo n porfectly proper
proceeding for him to fllo tho char
go. What Volmor thought about It
no ono will oyer know, for for onco
In hla llfo ho waa allont.
Thla Incident seemed to fumlah
tho bolllgoront councilman with suf
flclont oxcltomont for tho evening,
for ho sottlod down In hla aoat aud
permitted tho regular bualnosa of tho
council to proceed In n qulot and or-
