Insupport of the motion Ware claimed that the investigation of the charges called for the exercise of judicial functions the council aid not possess. City Attorney Hazelton combatted the proposi- tion and claimed that th a committee of the whole had full powers to investigate any charge that might be made against the chief or any bther appointive officer of the city.

He wrote to his uncle in advance, telling him that he was coming down to_settle up some bills of long stanaing which he haud con- tracted when lie lived there. He sesmed to have plenty of money, and stayed there for some little time. While I Kansas he be- came acquainted with the agent of the Adams Express company.
