MAYOR AND COUNCIL JOIN MOVEMENT TO GET FLORIDA BANKERS OFFICIAL INVITATION WILL BE FORWARDED TO PALATKA CONVENTION FRENCH NAMED INSPECTOR OF CONSTRUCTION. At the seinl-montlilv stated meet ing of the city council; held Monday evening, all members of the body were present except Dr. Klock, who was kept away by professional busi ness. Just before the assembly was called to order, Herr Schmidt, the president, started a "riot" of right respectable proportions because no fire had been built in the dinky little stove which Is sometimes pressed into service when the Florida climata goes off on a vacation. One of the fire department's venerable tradi tions was smashed when Chief French came in and started a blaze., but the wrath of the Teuton was ap peased. And It took a French man to turn the trick. Nine claims against the city, aggre gating $576.20, were approved and ordered paid. A petition signed by a dozen citi zens asked that a street llcht be placed at Volusia and the rallroa-1. Councilman Stevens, of the street committee, Etated that the matter had been taken up with the Public Service company, and it Is likely that the light will be placed at or near the point designated. The petition was referred to the street committee. J. J. O'Bryan's application for ap pointment as street commissioner, at a salary of $100 per month, was re ferred to the street committee. A letter from the F. E. C. Railway company, in reply to the board of trade's complaint about the unsani tary condition of toilets at the passen ger station, was submitted. The rail road disclaimed responsibility for th alleged neglect, and the correetno of tills attitude was admitted by tlie council. . Sanitary Inspector J. Wesley John son reported the city In a satisfactory sanitary condition, and that he had collected $180 during tlie month. Acting upon the board of trade's re quest, made through Secretary Dea con, the council unnnlmously passed a resolution embodying an invitation to the Florida Hankers' association to hold Its 1916 meeting In iw,m The first day's session of the 19'5 ' meeting, which Is to hp lioWl a r.. latka, commences Friday morning.
