Tliouth there Is no law requiring the publication of annual report of the variousn department of city government. City Comptroller Lobcck has unlit to the printer the copy for the official report for 1907, which the grand jury In Its report said should have been published long ago. It will be out In a week's time. There haa been no appropriation for the publication of theae reports for three years until now ami this has accounted for the delay In the publication, said the comptroller. The Vew publication will contain the reports tor three years. The publication will not contain the re ports of all departments, as some failed to Quintal) the. comptroller with them even though he asked for them several times, said the comptroller. What departments refused to furnish reports for the annual publication the comptroller at first de clined to say for the reason, as lie ex pressed It, "I don't want to knock any one." Inquiry was then made of nearly . every department head as to whether re ports had been furnished the comptroller and when the replies were shown that of ficial, he said that but three departments Lad neglected to furnish their reports. These three, he said, are the departments of health, water and fire and police com mission. Assistant City Attorney Punn Is authority for the statement that there Is no law com pelling the publication of annual reports containing the reports of the various de partments of the municipal government.
