Mr, Seoue introduced the gumlon. and thought at the time there was no loubt as to the power of the Board, but the law appears, literally construed, to deline how the towns, after havinr agreed to support their 0or, gy return to the county system, aa now n vogue, but {s sllent us to huw the support of the pauyers can be placed on the towns, eotc., where the county system prevails, ‘The statute on the subject reads: 4*That the County Board of any county thut has heretofore adopted, or 1my herealter pdopt, the separate support of paupers, iay," cte., cte. ‘The statutes further provide thut where the towns are supporting thelr poor, that upon n petltion of twenty voters from o majorlty of the Lowns of the cointy, the County Board shall submit the question of the separate support of the poor to the voters st sonie general election, sfore than this the Inw dues not say. With Cook Connty the facts are, thut no system of supporting the poor hias been adopted, separate or otherwise, hence the Board s powerless. Besides this, the statutes do not provide for returning te the support by towns, but the attentlon of the lawmakers sccms to have been all the other way., To abondon the County Azent’s aflice, then, or leava the towns, the people, or the Board to say whether the pour shall be maintained by towns or not, somo lerris- lation appears to be necessary, atd ought to be had. The people should at least have the optlon of saylng how they will support tho poor. THR COUNTY ATTORNRY'S 8T, Louss * Tmp, County-Attorney Willett was back from “8t.

Ilu thinks that the bill will speedlly become o Jaw, and i satistied that whatever oppos'tion there was to it has been partly douy awny with, While there he also ‘looked after the status of the num- vrous bills pending touching the County Boaord, ote,, but sccomplished very Jittle, ex- cept to learn that there wnsa dlspusition to mnother the most of them in the hunds of the rinter for somo cuuse or anuther.” What i3 nown a8 the Citlzens’ Assoclation . biil, how- ever, he says, extends the suthority of the Bonrd boyoud .what it now la, and also clotlics each Commissloner with power that none of them would now think of assuming.

The city was thoroughly scoured in ol directions, No attempt was made to identify any one of thoso already under arrest, owing partially to n pres- aure of other business, nud partially ~to the fact that the police do not think any une wili be able to identify elther one positively enough toinsure conviction.
