Mahle, at Wllkcs-Barrc.aiul later arraigned him before Commis sioner llulin on tho charge of using tho malls for fraudulent purposes. Mohlo was held In $1,000 bail for a hearing this afternoon, Ho only recently loft tho Western penitentiary at Allegheny, where ho served a sixteen months' sentence for practically tho Identical offense of which ho is now licensed. On the for mer occasion also, he conducted ills operations in Wllkes-Barre, His game consisted in writing two largo busl. ness houses in the eastern states, and making big orders, representing him self to bo a man of wealth. In numerous Instances his letters contained offers of exchanging one kind of merchandise for another, mostly of a produce nature. Ho re ferred all parties to Wllkes-Barre banks and In some Instances is known to have sent out worthless checks on the hanks. The return of these and the discovery that they were valueless resulted in an investigation being In stituted, and Wednesday a warrant was Issued for his arrest. After the hearing he was taken to the Luzerne county Jail, In default of $1,000 ball, and this afternoon at '1 o'clock full testimony will be heard In the case, WANT W0RMSER TO EXPLAIN COUNOILMEN WOULD LIKE TO KNOW ABOUT BIDS. Tho Director of Public Safety B,o quested to Furnish Select Council with His Henson for Awarding Contracts to Highest Bidders. Committee Appointed to Investi gate Certain Actions of Controller Howell Sewer Contract Awarded. Other Important Business. The select council wants to know why Director of Public Hatcty Worm see nnd ox-ltocorder Molr awarded the recent contracts for a. flro engine and for flro hose to the highest, Instead of to tlie lowest responsible bidders. President Chittenden Introduced a resolution nt last night's meeting di recting Director Wormsor to give coun cils bis reasons for this action, and also reqtiest'ng him to furnish to councils tho names of tho agentB present In tho Interests of the successful bidders, Tho resolution was passed unanimously, without discussion. Council also decided to appoint a conunltt'je of three to Investigate tho alleged neglect of Controller Howell In not furnishing a statement of all de ficiencies to tlie councils at the begin ning of tho fiscal year and his action In refusing to oby tho couuciltnaiilo resolution dliectlng him not to coun tersign warrants for any bills not ap proved by Hie auditing committee. Chairman Chittenden appointed as members of this committee three of tlie controller's outspoken opponents, Messrs. Vaiiglinn, ('lemons and Oliver, The matter was brought up by tho reading of several communications from tho controller. One of these set forth that the amount of unexpended balances not subject to he merged re maining on bis books from last year amounted to $l,Gl:!.:!:t. Another com munication set forth that there are now on file In tho controller's ofllco de ficiency bills remaining unpaid to the amount of $!,7f)4.l.", this In addition to the $15,000 worth of deficiency bills piovided for In tills year's general ap propriation ordinance. CONTROLLER HAS KNOWLKDC.K. Mr. Vaughiin claimed that the con troller had a knowledge of a large number of these bills when the esti mates committee was meeting and he censured him for not sending them in at Hint time. It was finally decided to refer this matter and still another communication in which Hie con troller signified liis intention of con tersigning warrants for bills upon tho approval of the head of tlie proper department only, to tlie above men tioned special committee for investi gation. In this connection it is interesting to note a resolution offered by Mr. Mer rliiian. One ,of tlie warrants recently countersigned by tlie controller upon the mere approval of the head of the proper department was a warrant for $40 drawn In favor of Dr. AV. K. Allen, superintendent of the bureau of health, tlie money to be used by him in pay ing parties who bury dead dogs. After setting forth these facts and noting that the payment of this money to Dr. Allen was Illegal because it was an advance payment, Mr. Merrinian's resolution directs the doctor to pay back the money into tlie city treasury and further directs tho controller not to certify any such warrants in the future. It was passed unanimously. Council also awarded a contract, tlie first awarded by any but the heads of departments since the "ripper" hill went into force. This contract was for the construction of a sewer on Broadway, Moran court. Fourth avenue, etc., and was awarded to Donolnie & O'Hoylc, whoso hid of $l.til per lineal foot was the only one received. The bids for this were asked for some time ago by coun cils. TAX ORDINANCE. Mr. Cosgrove introduced the license tax ordinance prepared by City Ho licltor Watson, tinder tho direction of ox-Recorder Molr, a resume of which appeared in the Tribune some weeks ago. It was referred to the license committee without comment.

When tho ordinance providing for a sewer on Railroad alley, to relieve tho Lackawanna avenua sewer, came up on second reading, President Chittenden took the floor and succeeded In having it referred buck to comniittco in con junction with the director of public works, ilulming that the sewer was entirely unnecessary. Tho following ordinances were passed on third rending; Providing for n pave ment on Carbon street, between Penn nvcnuo and .tho Lackawanna river; awarding tho water contract to t)io Kcruntoti Has and Water company at $12,000 a year: providing for a lateral sower on both sides of Alder street; providing for a lateral sewer on Penn avenue, and Larch street, In tho Thir teenth ward.
