Depnties Paid For Work Neyer Done— An Expose of the Loose Financial Methods of the City Council, The City's Unauthorized Clerks. Under special instructions given by the editor in chief a Ber reporter has during the past two or three days made inquiries concerning the city's finances and the num- ber and salary of municipal employes. The first oficer called upon wa THE CITY CLERK, Mr. Southard was asked the question: “Has the city council, either by ordinance or resolution ever authorized the employment of deputies or clerks by you?" replied the clerk, “Do you know of any ordinance or resolu tion granting to any city officer the right to employ assistants “1 do not.” In the clerk's office the following men are employed H. G.

Wihile the as o authority given him by the city council to employ these cheerfully paid deputy s Couns- £100 per month; D, J.Bur- ry £100 per month, men that body had~ always the vouchers sent in by him_for their” salu- ries. The present force in the city treasur- er's office is as follows: Mr. Kitton, deputy Mr. Grid treasurer, salary $150 per month : ley, deputy treasurcr salary £150 per month; Mr. 18, bookkeeper, y $100 per month: Mr. Dresel, assistant bookkeeper, salary £0 per month; Mr. Burke, copyist, salary £50 per month. Mr. Rush stated to a reporter that his books were open to examipation at all times, and he recognized the propricty of the Bre in making any inquiries its editor might see fit to require. At the same time he wished the readers of this journal to know that he and his present force, are doing the same amount of work as that performed by ten men last year. “There are ledge said Mr. Rush, “‘on our books. treasurer has but The fifteen ledger ac ,and yet his force lucking one, is as T myself work twelve hours count large as mine, every day The ne M.

The reporter next called on THE BUILDING INSPECTOR. Mr. Whitlock did not treat the Beg repre- sentative with that courtesy exhibited by the above. In fact he w: v short in his answers and app anything but anxious to give the information desired, as may be seen from the following conversation : “Mr. Whitlock, T desire toknow how many men are in the cmploy of the city building inspector.” “What do you want to know that fo “T am instructed by Mr. Rosewater to make a few iuquiries of you, concerning the administration of this office.” ““Well, I have a clerk, Mr. Campbell, who draws a salary of 5 per month. T also em- ploy two de Duty inspectors whose pay is #4 you any authority from the city council to'employ these men! Do you set me down for a d—d ‘flat? Of course T havi “May I see “Well, T suppose you can." Mr. Whitlock then showed the reporter a copy of a resolution adopted by the council and approved by the mayor Ma 1887, in which the inspeetor is employ two depu s hing was o clerk but before the remark, said relative to the This closed the inter reporter left M: in substance as follows: “What docs the Bee want all this_information fort I sup- Rosewater will give me another raking als t0-MOrrow.

Mr. Robert Livesey, a contractor, ¢ views on the subject, and yesterday u Beg re- porter intervi Dan O'Keeffe, one of the best known practical bricklayers 1n the city, on the subject. Mr. O'Keeffe says, * “In Friday evening's Bex 1 read an inter- view with Mr. R. Livesey, whose attention had been attracted by an'editorial article in the Beg urging the necessity of an_ early ‘ment between by s and mechanics the coming season. He claims that last r the employes did not give value for ue r id that, unless matters be settled on a different basis than in 1887, the contractors will feel obliged to take little or no interest in work.

But some of the contractors, and among the number Mr. R. Livesey, did not see the necessity of ing the commit- tee. Iwill ask Mr. R.

Do you know what I'm going to do? The reporter admitted that he did not. “I'm going to open an undertaking shop right over there in that building. I've sent for a practical undertaker to run the pl for me and I'm going to sell coffins at ce that is, I'll charge just enough to pa man's expenses and the rent, and if 1 don’t open peovle’s eyes it'll be a caution.

No, sir th undertaker don't get any blood money out of me. From this time a man can die and be buried pretty cheap.’ Conductors Oppose the Bill. The members of the local division of rail- way conductors has, for some days past, privately considered the scnate file 574 ,what 18 known as the bill providing for the lice: ing of railway conductors within the Unite States, and which was introduced on the 15th of last month. The document does not find favor with them and will be formally discussed and acted upon at its next meeting which is to be held soon al divisions of the order have already sed their disupproval of the pro- posed legislation, among them being that of the Queen City, of Sedalia copies of which urc now the conductors in this city bation was unanimous o grounds: reulating among This disappr the follow] The cost of enforcing the law would be ex- cessive; the benefits sought are not commensurate with the expense: it would impose upon conductors many nee hardships; conductors do not 1 legislation the best judges of the ¢ css of conductors are thei he bill is vague and indef ary re inite in its pr The resolutions close with a request to the representatives in congress to work to defeat the bill.
