A Pleasant Surprise — Councilman Lee's Idea of a Gas Famine—Super- intendent Baker Without a Sal- ary—Postofice Revenues, Crippling the Fire Department. A reporter from the Bep met Mayor Broatch yesterday and asked him what truth there was in a report concerning un overlap in the money intended for the fire de- partment. “There is a great deal of truth in the report,” said the mayor. “The police und fire commission is now engaged in investigat- mg the subject.

The levy for the support of the organization is not ‘adequate for the purpose. “Hereafter,” continued the mayor, ‘‘the possibility of a recurrence of this unfortu- nate sta affair will n tuke place, at least, during my administration. Our com mission has just emerged from all its difi- culties and we now feel that we can run the departments committed to us without the in teference of other parties, We are now getting our reports into shape, opening books for the keeping of our accounts and so sys- tematizing the affairs of the office that not a cent will be expended which is nc within the limit and demanded the circumstances of the case.
