"Members of the police force, whether In uniform or not, so long as thjry exhibit stars, must all be given free transporta tion or none at all," was the ultimatum laid down by the mayor. The representa tives of the motor company said they could not see their way to accede to the mayor a demand and tha conference closed without any agreement being reached. On btlmlf of the motor company It was contended that It would be Inadvisable to permit members of the police force to ride free merely on showing their stars. The motor conductors. It was contended, would on becoming acquainted with the ofllcers neglect to require them to show their stars and the result would be that men woulc" be permitted to ride free after they had left the police force. After the conference Mayor Macrae said: "We have submitted our ultimatum to the motor company and no half measures will be accepted. All of the members of the police force will be permitted to ride free whether In uniform or not. If the company does not concede this, which we claim it is required to rti under the franchise It Is now understo 1 to be operating under, we will in all f. liability take such measures as will br.lng t ic ques tion to an Issue one way or the other. If any conductor attempts to put a police officer off the car the officer will have orders to club the conductor, arrest him and take him to the city jail," The hearing of C. K. Durham, the con ductor who ejected Captain O'Nell from a street car Sunday morning and who was arrested on a charge of assault, was con tinued by agreement until Monday morning.

At a notable gathering of children at the home of Paul de Iangpre In Hollywood, Cal., Inst spring was the first time that Bennle Bonney attracted the attention of the groat painter of children.

There, he said, he would paint a picture of their boy, worth tt.non, which, after exhibition, he would present to them. Mr. Bonney, the boy's father, was re luctant.

Preliminary arrangements for the dedi cation of the new Carnegie library build ing were made at the meeting last night of the Board of Library Trustees. The dedication will be held Tuesday, Septem ber 12, and President Rohrer and Trustees J. J. Stewart, J. M. Oalvtn and Mrs. Ev erett were appointed a committee to ar range the program. It was decided to place the grounds in order by that time, and the committee on building waa author ised to prepare specifications and award the contract for the coping. The inscription on the-corner stone, -which was laid a year ago, was finally decided upon. On the Willow avenue side there will be "September , 1904," the date tho stone waa laid, and on the Pearl street side, the Inscription will be "Gift of An drew Carnegie." President Rohrer proposed that two bronxe tablets be placed over the settees In the entrance hall, one bearing the names of atl the members of the board who have been In office since the starting of the new library, and on the other the following in scription: "In Commemoration of the Phll- anthrophy of Andrew Carnegie, Who Oave the Funds for the Erection of This Build ing, the Board of Trustees Have Placed This Tablet, A. D. 1905." There was a dif ference of opinion as to the necessity of the tablet bearing the names of the mem bers of the board and this waa voted down, despite the earnest protests of President Rohrer, who accused the members of be ing too modest. The erection of the tablet to Mr. Carnegie was approved. President Rohrer stated he would bring the matter of the other tablet ip again, and hinted that he would be pleased to put It In at his own expense, provided the board acquiesced. Several of the members, however, stated they preferred not to have their names on the tablet Several bids for supplying the library with coal were received and were referred to tho committee on grounds and bulldlnr, with power to act. The contract for shades for the windows was awarded to the Stock ert Carpet company of this city on Its bid of 1106.75.
