T T Jacksonville Mayor Declares He Will Not Surrender Power of of Office to Trustees. JACKSONVILLE, July 26.—Mayor Van C. Swearingen gave out a state ment to-day regarding the trouble now existing between himself and the board of bond trustees of this city over the Jacksonville police ap pointment. He declared that while serving his term as municipal judge he had seen the workings rf the po lice committee of the bond trustees and hi 1 discovered that this commit tee was filing charges and trying policemen without authority. In speaking of this point, he said: ‘Soon after I took office, in fact it was about six days after I had been sworn in, I heard that charges had been filed against a policeman and that he had been tried and sus pended. I sent for the officer and asked him what had taken place. He told me and I took him to the station where I instructed the acting chief to put the officer back to work as he had been illegally tried. This was done. “The police committee of the board had been proceeding along similar lines for years past. The law* spe cifically states that no one but the Mayor can file charges. When these charges are filed they are filed with the entire board for the information of the mer-bers during the trial of the officer. In no case are they filed with the police committee and in no case has the police committee the right to try an officer. This is a practice which I h^-ve broken up and which they hate to quit. Trustees ‘Up in Air.* “After I had done this, the bond trustees went ‘up in the air.’ They iJbuld not stick to the laws but want ed to usurp the Mayor’s authority in regard to the control of the police department. I blocked their game and that is what caused the trouble. “The trustees have the right to control the organization of the de partment and I have the right to use it in enforcing the law’s; but what is the division point between th se two branches of authority? That is thj question. “When I met w’ith he police com mittee and the chairman of the board of bond trustees the other night, they wanted to compromise. They agreed that if I would meet * the station with them twice a w’eek they would not do anythin,, to which I might ob ject. That sounds allright to those who have not looked into the law of the case, but I would have been very foolish to have agreed to any such arrangement. Acting Fof People. “Now. the fact is. I am not acting for Van C. Swearingen, but as the Mayor for the people. I have notper- sonal interest in the matter which would cause me to want to quarrel with anyone. That being the case, it is up to me to do the best I can for the people who elected me to of fice If I ai . to do my best for the people I cannot afford to surrender mv power. I have the power I am contending for. that is. I believe I do, and I will continue to exercise it un til the lawfully constituted courts de cide otherwise. “That brings me to the settlement proposition. The trustees offered to submit the matter to a board of ar bitration. To this I would not agree as it would be foolish to waste time with a board which could not settle anything. 1 really believe that the bond trustees want to stay out or court because they fear thej will lose and they would not like to see me beat them. Chief Roach Suspended. „ “As to Chief Roach, he is suspend ed. I have been working upon charges against him for several days and will have them ready to file within the next few days. He will then be tried by th- board of bond trustees. I am of the opinion that they will find him not guilty, although I believe he is. If they clear him there is noth- ing'more for me to do in regard to the chief unless I suspend him again and • file other charges. “The bond trustees have been run ning this town. They serve without pay and have made noble sacrifices; but that does not warrant them in trving to take away the power of the Mayor. Council and everyone else. They will not exercise the Mayor’s prerogatives while I am In office, I can assure you. I do not know just when this matter will be settled, but I suppose it will not hang fire much longer.” PENSACOLA PHOTOGRAPHER WINS NATIONAL CONTEST PENSACOLA, July 25.—H.

F SUITE ASKS u.s. [aims IS Florida Railroad Commission Asks U, S. Judge to Make Railroads Obey Orders. TALLAHASSEE, July 26.—A new turn has been taken in the Federal Court in the suit originally instituted in the State Court by the Seaboard Air Line Railway and the Tampa Northern Railroad Company against the Florida Railroad Commission to enjoin the enforcement of three or ders of the Commissioners. On demand of the Railroad Com mission, the case was removed to the Federal Court, and the application for a preliminary injunction was argued before Judges Pardee. Shelby and Sheppard. The decision was in favor of the Commissioners, the injunction being denied. As the latest move in the case, the Railroad Commissioners have filed an answer denying the essential allega tions of the bill, and in turn asking for an injunction restraining the two railroad companies from further re fusing to obey the three orders of the Commissioners. This is the first time the Florida Commissioners have called on the Federal Court to enforce their orders, and the outcome is awaited with in terest. Counsel for the Commissioners has not stated whether there is a prece dent for his action further than to say that the course pursued is war ranted by good authority. The action of the Commissioners and their counsel in pursuing their remedy in the Federal Court is per haps explained by the fact that short ly after the dec ision of the three Fed eral judges at New Orleans, in which they sustained the Railroad Commis sioners. the Supreme Court of Florida, in a case involving the same points, decided in favor of a railroad.

But “Miss September Morn" played in harder luck in Pensacola. When a local dealer filled his show window with copies of the famous painting, it was not 24 hours before the Chief of Police ordered hem removed and prohibited the public display of the picture. The dealer thereupon turned all but one of the pictures to the wall. On this one he pasted a batn- ing suit and placed a sign'in the win dow reading. “Excuse me while I put on a bathing suit.

He stated: “I will not tolerate the so-caIl°d split skirts on the streets of Key West, and if I find anyone wearing them, 1 shall at once prefer charges against them and push the case to the extent of my power. The decent an 1 respectable women of Key West will not want to wear them, I am sure, and I have Ions ago taken the precau tion that the other kind should not. The split skirt will positively not be permitted in Key West.” In connection with this.

July 26—When the City Council meets August 6 the Playground Commission will lay a proposition before it to spend $20,000 in improving the playgrounds of the city. At the present time there is but one playground and it is not im proved as it should be because of the lack of funds. The commission has decided to ask the Council to provide for the estab lishment of a regular system con sisting of at least lour parks, where children can play under the direction of trained Instructors.

Figures show that last year more than 36,000 children visited the one playground in this city.
