"llosh' replied Uie Mayor. "H .a
certain Judge wants to make reprisals
let him reprise. The result may surprise
him. Wc are not afraid, but curious
of the results." . ,
"Nothing to say," wns Judge Ilrown a
reply to a question ns to reprisals.
lllrhnrtl Wegleln, president of Coun
cil, went over his Twenty-ninth ward
1st carefully and disclaimed responsi
bility for any of those to be dropped
but one.
Alexis .T. Limeburner said he wns not
responsible for ii single man on the
Twenty-eighth wnrd list of victims. "At
n mnttcr nf fact thev can't touch me,
he said. "I nm not responsible for n
I single job in City Hall.'' ,,
I "I recall n few of these men." said
Councllmnn Ilurhliolis, "Senator Mnr

I during his lifetime. Some have been
I in the city's employment for a great

"What can I do nbout It? I don't
know. I did not have them appointed
nnd while I would like to have them
stay there I guess wc have to take things

must hnppen at this time of the yonr.'
Slgmiind J. (Inns, of the Thirty
eighth wnrd, again ntwuined full respon
sibility for his vote ngalust the Mayor s
vetoes last week, saying that the dis
missal orders could not be taken ns n
slap at Mr. Acker, the purchasing
ngent.
The status of A. Lincoln Acker, the
cityV purchasing ngent, in view of the
repeated reports that he may be called
unon to resign his oflicc. hns not been
dctei mined conclusively. Mr. Acker has
(lllclnimed nil responsibility for the ac- i
tion of Councllmnn Higmiiud J. Onns' ,
desertion of the Mayor over the Mu- i
ulclpnl Court veto. The purchnslng
ngent wns to hnvc hnd another confer-
ence with the Mayor yesterdny, but the
meeting went over until today.
Mr. Acker had another conference
with City Solicitor Smyth, and Conn
cllinnn 'Jans also called on Mr. Smyth.
It Is understood Mr. Smyth is being
sought as an Intermediary to have Mr.
