A recommendation for a thorough inventlgatlon wa* made to Connell by City Comptroller H. (J. Mowrer In the following letter, read at the regular meeting ot Council Monday night:

ocRAie City, Jnnt 6.

To the 1're.ldeut and Member* of Common Council of Ocean Clly— liKstruaucr:—A* tbe matter of Ibe city’* finance* haa been uppermost In the public mind, a* well a* your honorable body, I desire to call yoor attention lo a phase of the aame which ba* not been *erlou*ly considered. Fhl. I* the pracUce which ha* been maintained In Ibe past of city officials getting commlnlona or bonuses on

contract, for city anppllaa.

In order that the onus for theae -anaaetlon* may be fixed, that con - ttdence may be firmly established and recover any such diverted fund*, I ould recommend a thorough Invaatlgatlon. When 1 apeak of an tnrasltgatlon, I do not mean an audit, aa an audit would elmply prove aeeoants and figure*, which baa been done an-

many.

I realize very well that no fnnd* •ere provided for this pnrpoee In making our annual appropriations. However, if tbe matter la proparly endorsed and supported by your bonirable body, 1 believe sufficient money can be raised by private subscription io defray tbe ex peorn* of such an !nrstlgallon. 1 unuld .ug(Mt that a committee at iwo be appointed from your own number. together with two taxpayer*, with power to act at to course of procedure, etc., lu a
