Goddard last night repeated his declaration that city improvements are costing too much and that certain councilmen are getting rich. Goddard came through the ordeal alive; he wasn't ousted from the council, be wasn't mauled or maimed or chewed up a bit The council's part in the matter ended in a farce investigation of fiftesn minutes’ duration, the conetusion of which was that no charges had been filed and there wad nothing further to do. There the matter rests, with Goddard's stattment relative to the excessive coat of improvements undenied, and a further iack of denial that certain Inembers of the council were getting rich The couneh proceedings were almost a burlesque. Many bers wanted the whole matter dtopped at the beginning, others insisted on considering it facetiously, still others thought it was a personal matter between Goddard and Murphy, « 1 were #0 many ideas as to What should be done that the proceedings went with much oratory fo the appointment of an investigation committee whose official existence was not more than a quarter of an hour With due solemnity the council! met and went into a committee In spite mem: of the whole to consider the Schlumpf resolution calling for an ex planation from Goddard.

EW DEAL NOW TO OUST BALLINGER PROBERS MAY FORCE TAFT TO ACT (By United Press.) BEVERLY, Mass., Aug. 31.—-That Secretary Ballinger is to be forced from the cabinet by a bold political stroke is the report current here today. Ballinger, instead of being whitewashed by the congres- sional investigating committee, will be censured, it is declared, this forcing President Taft to ask for his resignation. The success of this plan depends, it is declared, on the defection of Congressman Samuel W.
