The Chambers of the Kings Oounty Board of Supervisors were thronged to repletion half an hour hefore the time appointed for tne meeting of that august body, three o'clock, by about as “mixed”’'a crowd Of politicians and harpies as ever assembled im the Uounty Court House, The great sensation ‘Was the long-fought question as to ‘who snall be Keeper of the Penitentiary?” The office is worth $6,000 per annum. The interest centres in the fact that a fight has been going on between the leaders of the regulars or “the ring” and a has been effected by Supervisor Dick Newman. James Shevitin, of the Fifth ward, District Engineer, is the oholce of the democratic powers, and the quarrel was therefore a stubborn one, His Honor Mayor Kalbfleisch, an ex aficio member of the | Board, ooeupied his position nm the charmed circle, , William J. Osborn, Supervisor at Large, presided. The member fromthe Eleventh ward moved that the reading of the minutes be dispensed with, Loat—fourteen voting in the negative to eleven in the aftirmative. ‘The bills of the Court oficers—amountivg to about three thousand two hundred dollars in the aggre- | gate for the month of November—were reported by | the Anditor, and their payment directed by @ vote Of ai tos Supervisor HARMAN sald that $88,000 were paid ‘annually to political strikers appomted as Court oMoers merely for services rendered to (he party, Formerly the labors were performed for $8,000 a year.

The CHaixk put the question, which was lost. This announcement was received with loud applause in Whe gallery, and the Chair had to request the gen- tlemen present to restrain their enthusiasm until they regained tne open air. layor .KALBFLEISOM arose and sald that he pees that such serious accusations as that of pa which had been made, should be iuvesti- | do so it was but proper that they Srouta ee ar by postponing action until the | next Hae e truth or falsity of the matuer should ified to the bottom, in order that tae Sharacter of the Board might be vindicated.
