Such Is the: question which the first named body submits to the latter In a communication approved at its meeting of last pTinirfR.- For some time past the fact ha,s been 'recognised that the Are depart ment fund would not be sufficient to en dure to the end of the year at the estab lished rate- of expenditure, and early In Its tdmlnistrat Ion the present board, upon application to the city attorney, received n opinion to the effect, that the members would in law be personally liable for any iDdPDiPaucss incurred in mount available In the psrtment. excess of the fund of Ihe de The condition of the fund v. as also brought to the notice of the city council through the financial statement of the comptroller, and at a recent meeting a number of expense bills which must have come out of the Are department fund were disallowed In the passage of the appro 'prist ion ordinance.

Following: Is the full text of the com aiunlcatlon: To the Honorable Mayor and City Council i me vity or iimann Dear airs: we ae sire to direct the attention of vour hon prabln body to the lack of funds necessary for , the maintenance ot the tire depart ment of the city. The Appropriation was tllta.OQO, of which, according to the state ment of the comptroller, there will be col lected, together with back assessments, the sum of 4U9.tkti.31. thus makina at the dis posal of the board for the maintenance of the fire department IU9,K.S.31. It also appears that the Hoard of Fire and Police lommlsalonere, composed of the mayor, es chairman, and Matthew H. Col- - Una and others, as members, carried over from I ant year bills amounting to about i3,50i, which the board as above const 1 luted paid out of the funds of 192. It alo appears that said board, at about January 2. 190J. ltirre&Mi the lira fnrtie bv lh ad dition of nine members, at a salary ot 170 - turn per roontn. e aTe Informed that this action was taken at the request of the. Commercial club of this city and upon some agreement or understanding with your honorable body and the mayor that the Increased expensa wouia oe proviaea tor. in some manner. aunt of lae UrneiaBcy. The present Board of Fire and Police Commissioners, since Its induction Into offtca on August 4, lint, has continued the force as It then round It and has not In any manner Increased the expenditures for tne nre department, lbere baa been ex pended In that department up to October 1 the aum of $!,246.aT, and If the aame rate of exronditure Is continued until the end of the year It would reaulre S128.327.IW. This shows that there will be a deficiency In the tire fund of H,7ul.e5. The principal ex pense consists in im salaries oi mo em ployes of the department. The other ex penses, such a the - alarm servtes, tele phono bills, grain and crovlalons for the horsesu etc., Delng Axed by contract, are Deyona tne control or tnis noara. .il'm tiMv-aUflvnev hns-advlsed this board that it roust notexprad beyond the amount of the funds provided. It will thus be seen that the only way In which tha board can reduce Its expenditures to come within the appropriation win oe to reauce tne rorce os firemen. In order to make the necessary reduction the board will have to discharge at least sixty men for the remaining two months. This can only be done by closing six or seven of the fire houses, thus ex posing a large part of the city to the rav aaea of fire. Such a reduction would Ut terly crinuUi the tire dcoartraent. it is a condition for which this board is in no way responsible, but which must be met. The lorce as now constituted witn lis men, Is til too small for a city spread over the territory covered by Omaha. Huctt a reduction of tne fire department can be thought ot only as a last resort, but under the Law it is the only thins; tnis "board can lo unless the funds are provided. To pro vide the funds is neither within the prov ince or power of the Board of Flra and Po lice Commissioners. We also call your attention to the further fact that it Is Imperatively necessary that - the department have C.oiO feet of hose. which will cost about W.OuO. Much of the hone which the department ia now using is dangerously old and rotten. You will thus mo th.t if anv semblance of fire protec tion Is to be afforded to the city Cor ths hazardous months of 'November and De cember, tha board must have fl6.0u0 more tire funds. .We deem a simple statement or tha I acta to oa aurocient. .Two Resignations Aeeepted.

Bernard Baer, the Chicago detective who worked up the evidence upon which four members of the South Omaha Board ot Education were arrested, says the alleged boodlers of the Magic City are the cheapest he haa known In a police career of many years. Interviewed by the Record-Herald, Mr. Baer as Id: "South Omaha'a Board of Education bood lers didn't get round shouldered carrying away some of the bribes they accepted. They were the cheapest men, in the matter of price, that ever risked good reputation and the freedom of thla life for the sake of lining their pockets with the public's money; the cheapest tbst 1 ever met, and I've brushed shoulders with pickpockets who would steal rar fare from a washerwoman without a qualm ot conscience. "Eight dollars Is the price that three members of South Omaha'a educational di rectory demanded as a salve for their con science in little boodling transactions which I arranged for the purpose ot getting the evidence against them," continued the cap tain yesterday as he discussed the develop ments in the western city. "Eight dollars Is what they wanted for selling out the people they were aervlng In thla particular case, but I understand that waa an ex orbitant figure, if they are to be Judged by what it Is said they have accepted In the past. I am told that they have closed their eyes and stood tor Illegal transactions in connection with some schoolhouse repair work when their fingers only cloaed over 12.60.
