V another tack yesterday hi Ita de-
termination to ouat Chief Joaee and. Bad
cha,,ea preferred and file with Clerk
Bapp against Chief Jones. With the pres
nt makeup of the comnMealon and Its
avowed determination to get rid of Chief
Jones at any coat, there Is little queetlon
but ttjat It will finally be sueceesful.
At the hearing before Judge Wheeler
yesterBay. afternoon the controversy

of Interfering with Chief Jones "oi account
of any action heretofore taken by the
Board of fir and Police commissioners, or
for and on account, or by. reason of any
appointment of him (Nicholson) as chief
of tha Ore department previous to this
date."
In the answer It la aet forth that the
commissioners on May i adopted ru lea and
regulations governing charges and trials of
officers and members of ths fire depart
ment and that on May 4 written and veri
fied charges were made and filed against
Chief Jones
In holding against the FVe end Polloe
Commission In Ita appointment of Nichol
son the order does not restrain the com-
tirl sal otters from proceeding -e-gainst -Chief-
Jones on the chargea filed yesterday.

The .chnrges against Chief Jonea were
filed try O. P. McKeanon. -a former resident

Interest In the Union Transfer' company
to W, A. . Southard, removed with his
family to California. For several weeks

In- conformity with the rules and regula
tions adopted by the Firs and Police com
mission, iCty Maransl Richmond yesterday
served upon Fire Chief Jones notice of the
charges filed against him by O. P. McKea

before the commission Wednesday momlag.
Pending being furnished with suitable
qaarteri by the city council, the Fire and
Police, commi salon la hcldlng Ita meeting
In the private office of Clerk W. F. Bapp.
It la possible that the bearing before the
commission may be delayed, as It was
stated last night that counsel for Chief
Jones 'would take into- court the question
of' the legality" of Mayor Macrae's apprlnt
mentg, seeing that the commission Is com
posed of two democrats and one republican,
while the law provides that It should con
aist. If practicable, of one democrat and
two republican. It Is contended that "It
waa entirely "practicable" for Mayor Mac
rae to have found two responsible cltisens.

Steel Tower I Bad Shape
While dismantling the 150-foot rlectrto
light tower at the corner of Broadway nd
Eighth street an alarming condition waa
discovered. Parts of the tower were In
such a rusted and weakened condition that
Its collapse, as had been the case about
nine years ago. waa Imminent. Some of
l the steel tubing, of which the tower is
constructed, waa found to be so rusted thet
It was barely a sixteenth of an Inch In
thickness. When the tower at Broadway
and First street collapsed about two year
ago a - similar condition waa found. - In
view of the extreme danger, the city coun
cil at that time ordered the tower at
Broadway and Fourth street taken down
and this was' done, but the others were
permitted to stand.
City Electrician Bradley will now make
a report to the city council recommending
the dismantling of the remaining six
towers on East Pierce at rent, Oakland ave
