Members of the city council are objecting to some of the members of the Taxpayers league making curbstone speeches, denounc- ing the council for not retrenching in some of the city departments. Several times the council has asked the league to make sug- gestions as to how the expenses of the city could be reduced. So far the only sugges- tions from the league have been to reduce the police force, the fire department and to cut off some of the electric lights. When these subjects were discussed at the last meeting of the council it was the unanimous opinion of that body that the police fo as it is today, ten men, is entirely too small. The fire department cannot be cut any with- out placing the taxpayers' property in jeopardy. As for the electric lights, the lighting company has a five years' contract for maintaining fifteen arc lig period of five years, which contract, the councilmen say, cannot be broken by the’ city.

PIERRE, 8. D, Jan. Special Telo- gram.)—The people about capitol have been throbbing with excitement all day over developments in the Taylor The state officials put very little reliance upon the story and profess practical indifference to it Wednesday night there came to the chief of police a letter from John G. Overton of Crawfordsville, Ind, Overton claimed to be an ex-county superintendent and gave number of references, telling the officer th: he might verify them by wire. He stated that at the time of his disappearance he went to his her's home In Lafayette, seri- ously sick t his friends, fearing for his safety, in view of his exposure, spirited him away from there and took him to the home of a mutual friend in Crawfordsville, Ind., where he has since been concealed and where he is (ill very seriously ill. The let- ter stated that Overton was well acquainted with Taylor and his family and knew whereot he spoke, and that he was in a position to deliver him to the officials ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTS. The police here communicated with Attor- ney General Crawford, who gave little dence to the story, but that immediate steps to verlfy it and communicated the substan of the letter to the eastern detective agency which is handling the case. The latter also placed little reliance in it, but began work at once. Yesterday Mr. Crawford had drawn requisition papers in blank, which were signed by the governor and left with the ecretary of state. Crawford left for the east on the night train, and all state officials declare he went not for the purpose of appry hending Taylor, but on other business. His departure was noted by friends of Taylor he:e, who immediately wired various peints in Indiana. Today replies were received, among. them one to C. N. Overton, from his brother in Lafayette, and all declare the story a hoax and that Taylor had not been seen. It fis the general opinion here that Taylor was in Crawfordsville, but that he had escaped. Attorney General Crawford fs by this time in Tllinois, from which point he Is expected to verify the story in its details, RUTH'S STORY CONTRADICTED, The investigation committee brought to light today some evidence of considerable in- terest. A day or two ago Mr. Ruth was e: amined and festified that he never had writ- ten the letter heretofore mentioned. He also stated that he never had had transac tions with the treasurer, except two, they being two deposits at his bank at Desmet of $5,000 each. Today Court Boyd, a tra: ing man dealing in blanks and Stationery, who s familiar with all the county officers in the state, testified that in the summer of 1892 he was in the county treasurer's office in Vermillion and there saw a letter written by Ruth addressed to Taylor, but sent to the county treasurer presumably by mistake. Boyd could not remember the phraseolog of ‘the letter, but stated its substance v that Ruth was unwilling to pay over at that time the $10,000, and also that he would not make the apportionment of the school money, which was then overdue, untik his return rom the east. Tho committee has examined: quite care- fully into Ruth's transactions in 1803, and promises interesting developments. Mem- bers state that Boyd's testimony is directly contradictory to that of Ruth.
