An agreement was entered into with Gray Bros. to build the archway according to drawings and specifica- ons furnished by E 5 per cubic sequently moditied by Qe s of walls from nine feet 10 two and a at asaving of about $6000. Atfer the completion of the archway the Commissioners advertised for bids from archi- to draw plans and specifications for te an¢ concrete work.

On August 8, 1896, a second contract | was made with Alexander McLennon for gran- | ite work to the four ballustradings above the | main drive viaduct for the sum of $16,000.

We have thoroughly examined all of the re- orts of Coxhead & Coxhead, Grunsky and avidson, and believe them to be fair and as nearly correct as it is possible to calcuiate. 1Lodge—This buflding Is but another evi- dence of the good judgment displayed by the Commissioners in Tesring a structure that is au ornemen: and a credit to the park, and conforms 1o the other improvements recen tly made. An examinaiion of lubor and material accounts couvinces us that the cost of the struciure is very reasopable. The old lodge building bad to be removea, and the Comm is- sloners disposed of jt 1o the best advantage, suving the cost of removal. Police—This subject received our careful consideration, and we most heartiiy commend the manner in which this branch of the pub- lic se:vice is conducted. Discipline is rigidly mainteined, alert in everything hat comes witain the province of their duties. Tabulated and itemized siatements and spe- cific reports upon the delivery and cousump- tion of coal, hay and grain, the purchuse and | ribution of loam and water pipe, the cost of granite bridge, embracing ail matters per. taining to its construction, and the cost of the vertical pump are on file. The experts report the books and accounts accurately and neatly kept. Every facility was given your commiitee to procure the facts and figures as given in this report, and the conclusion arrived at is that the Commission- ers have been and are carrying out their auties and the trust reposed in them in the best pos- | sible manner, and deserve the heartiestcom- mendation of their fellow-citizens. Several recommendations made by your committee were gratefully received by the Commissiouers and will be acied upon by them. Respectiully submitted, N F. FRAGLEY, SE, WHY ALL THAT CROWD?

(TURNER ISDICTED AGAIN. i Frenna, His Nemesis, Brings a Charge of Perjury Against Him. Clerk and Stenographer, Miss Lizzie O’Donnell, Also Indicted With Hm. His | The Grand Jury yesterday returned a true bill of indictment against J. F. Turner, real estate operator, and his clerk and stenograpber, Lizzie F. O'Donnell, for the crime of perjury. The crime is alleged to have been com- mitted at the recent trial before Judge Wallace, wherein Turner was the defend- ant cpon a charge of the theft of certain | deeds. Turner bad been previously tried on a charce of having forged the deeds | upon which he bad borrowed money—sey- | eral thousand dollars—from J. P. Frenna, | a barber. The deeds said to have been | forged were stolen during the trial, and | the prosecution failed for lack of them. | Then Turnor was tried upon the charge of having stolen them. On this trial the deeds were produced. They differed in essential particulars from the original deeds and it is now chargea that both Turner and his clerk swore falsely when they testified that thev were the original deeds. Miss O'Donnell tes- tified that she wrote the deeds herselt all |at one time. It is alleged that certain interlineations showing a different hand and a different ink go to disprove this statement. The committee on parks returned a full report of its investigations of the charges of mismanagement and financial prodi- gality made against the Commissioners |and superintencent.
