Kiley. without action by Council as temporary uirrintondent of the city Barbara irematory, the controversy following the presentation of a bill for Mr. Riley's services sine the death of Superintendent Charles Cannon, the amount beinj? 17. After the bill had been read Mr.

Taylor said be bad been informed by the chairman of the crematory committee, of which he is a member, that Mr. Kile hnd been appointed superintendent teiuj-orarily. He said ho knew nothing about what the committee was do i since the ap ointment of ritra mVn lat summer. He said no meetings of the committee had been held recently ami he understood that the chairman had refused to call a meeting. He thought be should be consulted alout appointments at least, but he taid he had not been consulted.

As the minority member he did not expect to fay who should be appointed, but he thought he should be appointed. Chairman Willis of the committee paid he was sorry the matter was brought up at this time. He explained that it was necessary to have a head for the crematory force and believing ZSr. Kiley was a competent man he appointed him temporarily In charge, remain until Council should mke an appointment. Mr.

McCatrerty, also a member of the committee, paid Mr. Willis had consulted him and he had consented to the temporary appointment, believing Mr. Kiley to be efficient. Similar remarks were made by Mr. Zebley another memWr of the committee.

President McNulty, upon being as-Wed for his opinion as to the status of minority members of committees, said he would simply reiterate what be had said when the committees were appointed, that each member was just important as every other member. As to committee work, he said it was necessary to hive a chairman and the ruijonty of the committer, in the event of a difference of opinion, must control its actions. At the conclusion of the debate Mr. Kilty's bill was allowed, Mr. Taylor voting in the negative.

No further action was taken, and the inference is that Council, as a lody, Hoes not object to the temporary appointment, although there was a sultsequent discussion which proved that all of the members are not satisfied with the failure of Council to elect. After the bill had been ordered paid Mr. Lynch said be hoped Council would soon settle the matter at the crematorv. He said ever since the first vacancy occurred an applicant has been calling at his store relative to the matter, but he could give him do satisfaction Iwause cf Council's failure to a-t. Mr.

Lynch said be agreed with Mr. Taylor. Mr. Mctlovern, also a member of the committer, said he thought the matter should be settled, lie called attention to the fact that the city charter requires Council to elect such employes by ballot and by a majority vote. Mr.

McCafferty said although ha consented to the temporary appointment of Mr. Kiley and the work is probably being done as we.il as it could be done, be was not satiefied with the way the crematory affair is run. lie raid the truth hurts and the truth was never better expressed than in one of the evening papers recently when it criticised CcuDcil relative to the crematory matter. Mr. Taylor said be was consulted about matters coming before all other commute- of which he is a member.

President McNulty said if B.ajority of the committee was not satisfied with what Lad been done, it was their fault, as the majority should control the committer's action. Mr. Taylor, said he had tried to get three of the members to hold a meeting but they had declined to do it. Referring to some old rules of Coun-rii. be usdt-rdood that all committee meetings would have to be called by the chairman.

President McNulty icformed him that sub a as not the case. Mr. Taylor said a majority of the committee waited one eight until 11 clock to get a meeting, but the chairman refused to call one, even to the extent of hiding, and when they found him he still refused to call a meeting. Mr. McCatrerty baid he frequently isited the crematory and was satisfied with its workings until the death of Superintendent Cannon, but since that time he was nut satisfied, and unless it was run to hi? t-atiafaction he would ask to be taken off the committee.

Mr. Taylor said unless he was ocn-sulu-d about the committee's work he would ask to be taken or? it. At this juncture Mr. Kane made a motion to adjourn, which was voted down. Mr.

McCafferty explained his position in the matter, idier which another motion to adjourn was rnacie. Celebration of Its Eighth Anniversary Last Night. SPEECH MAKING AND DINNER Addresses by W. H. Berry, Joy Follard and Others.

Wn a l.urr Attendant! Mm-lra nil Vlsor Hrrn Miner ti tl Trnll In Ihc State Coin-rlrt leaning I'rwgramme of Knter-tilitmrMt, The Democratic League of Delaware celebrated its eighth anniversary last evening, in an appropriate way, at its headquarters, in the iarge building at the northwest corner of Fourth and King Tho attendance was large. Elaborate preparation had been made by the committee of arrangements, comprising George M. Gillespie, Daniel McClintock, H. A. W.

Behan, Frank Krejej, John Blattpry and W. C. Grotbaus. and they were given much credit for the suecesa of the affair, as wre the officers and raonsber of the club generally, who are never better satisfied than when extending their hospitality to their fellows. The building was approj lately deeoratod and brilliantly illuminated, and presented an animated spectacle throughout the even ing.

The festivities took rlaeo on too eoond and fourth Honrs, all available space being utilized for the purpose. Early in tho evening there wai epeeohmaking, at a general meeting, which was held in the meeting room on the fourth floor, and following this refreshments were served an-1 a general good time was had on thosenond Jloor, here being nn abundance of provisions for ail. Excellent "talent furnished entertainment while the dinner was in progres-i. Iti meeting wm presided over by Goldsmith i'j. Nailor, th president of the P-rtgue, who made a few remarks and introduced the other speakers.

Re-solutions were adopted objecting to the of the DenKrf-ratio party in tbe lat campaign and renewing allegiance to the IhhO and 19i0 platforms. Hon. William II. Perry of Chester, took this for a cue arid made a political address. advocating free silver, lie said a condit ion "of full industry must be established to maintain free men, ami he claimed that that Ron-diticn cannot exist with tbe trust in existence.

He attributed ibn growth cf the trusts to their maintenance of the gold standard of money. He it results in a restraint of the outpct. Prices must be maintained, he held, but there should be a more plentiful supply of money, the result, he jointed out, being a greater of property and a better opjiortunity to acquire it. The increasing cf tbe currency, he said, would relieve the situation. Tbe currency, he said, has increaseo 40 per cent since li, ami there has ben, as a result, more work and greater production.

He contended that the capital of the country is not half employed. He said if the trusts are destroyed there will be the wornt panic ever seen unless some other means are provided to keep up the prices. He eulogized Bryan for the stand he takes. He said he thought if 100 men no better qualified than he (Berry but as well qualified, to discuss the points he hai mentioned, were given a year, and expenses, to canvass the country, he believed it could be carried by the Democratic party without any trouble. He said he was willing to discuss the question with anybody and hire the hall.

Joy Pollard, a representative of the Western Federation of Miners, who 13 in the East in the interest of that organization, discussed the troubles in Colorado. He is from the Cripple Creek district, where the union men are on strike in an effort, he said, to bring about an eight-hour day for the smelter men in the mining industry there. He belongs to the miners, but there are affiliated organizations, such as the mill men and smelters, and he said it was for these latter class that the miners are holding out. He said in the Cripple Creek district, whete be belongs, 90 per cent of the miners are American born, while he expressed the belief that 99 per cent can read and write in the English language. He was formerly president of the Colorado Federation of Labor, and he said while he was serving in that capacity, six years ago, through the instrumentality cf the organization, an eight-hour law was passed by the Legislature.

Part of the organization of smelters, he asserted, quit work in an effort to enforce the law, but the matter was taken to the Supreme Court of the State, which declared that the law wad unconstitutional, as the Cou3titutionjas written, whereupon the strikers, he declared, accepted this decision and returned to work. Ia 1900, he explained, the people voted on six amendments to the Constitution, which would allow eight-hour law to be passed, and in li)02, the legislative fight on this was won, according to his calculation, by a majority of He said eight-hour bills were introduced in the Legislature, but that tndy adjourred before taking final action, and at the special session, which followed, the only business transacted was the passing of an appropriation for the World's Fair. He culled attention to the fact that his organization, the Cripple Creek miners, numbering about men, quit work in August, lxKKi, although they were receiving 1 per day of eight hours, the object being, he said, to reinforce the strikers who were endeavoring to have the eight-hour day adopted for ths smeltermen. He gave as his opinion that much lawlessness which nas been reported from that section as the work of the organized miners was not their work. He said there are 2 1 organizations in tha Western Federation, aud the membership of each ranges from 150 to 2,000.

He explained that uu appeal is being made to organ izod labor all over tho country to contribute to tho maintenance fund of tho organization, and while hero ha is calling on labor organizations.

An FfTort Urine Made to Connect th We Strr-I Main Hrforc llio of lh Year. Tho Water Department is making an effort to place tho new West street main in service before the end of the year, and as soon as it is in service tho water for tho North Side will go through it, instead of through the.

pipe-on Washington bridge. The laying of tho West street main was a big task and it was accomplished only after overcoming numerous diflioulties, chief of which was that of laying it under the 1 randy wine. The laying of this main will probably conclude tho dojiartment's new work for the winter, as it is impossible to do that sort of work with satisfaction in freezing weather. The department is receiving a supply of pii for use rext spring and summer. Some of it came by boat and some bv water, nnd it is being stored on the department's wharf, near street bridge over the Christiana Kiver, where it will be kept, until it is needed.

Plans for carrying on the work of the ej)cial commissicn recently ap-jointed by the Hoard of Health to investigate cases of Pneumonia, and ascertain, if possible, some way cf curbing the disease, have been made on a gigantic soule according to Dr.

Herman M. Riggs, Chief Medical Officer of the Department. "Tho first six months of this year brought deaths from Pneumonia, or about 1U.6 per cent of the total number of deaths, which was 42, 700. A similar report in showed 5,703 Pneumonia deaths out of 34,830 or 1G.5 per cent. It is well that the public is at last beginning to realize its danger and that these in authority are takicg 6teps to curb this dread disease.

We believe it is our duty to inform you that Pneumonia can be prevented and cured. If taken in the first stages of Pneumonia Father John's Medicine never fails to cure, and it will build you up and strengthen you so that there will be no danger from a relapbo or a second attack. Read what James T. Reilly of Kil-lingly, t-ays. His exjrience is the same as thousands of others: Dear Sirs: I think Father John's Medicine is a medicine that everybody fchould know about and keep in their house.

1 am never without, it and never bhall be. if ever a man was in a wt aliened condition utter cne and one half years' from Grip and then that dreaded pneumonia, followed by t-neh a cough as 1 am unable to describe in writing, again followed by hemorrhages. I could not sleep nights, and was unable to eat. I had given up all boi. Doctors gave me no relief and I was given up to die.

After using six bottles of Father John's Medicine I again went to work. My cough is all gone, and I have no hemorrhages thanks to your Father John's Medicine I have tried hundreds of other so-called cures without any benefit whatever. Respectfully yours, (Signed) James X. Reilly.
