BHce and prosecuted criminally by States Attorbey A. V. Smith on a charge of malfeasance in office, it was learned today. George Hollister. president of the village of Foxr Lake, hTu agked that two members of bhis council, Louis Brydges and Walter~ Hagberger, both trustees under the last village sdministration, be ousted from of-- after defeating Louis DeProfit, who was the incumbent, by six votes. States Attorney Smith decliared that hbe and hbis assistant, S. H. Block, were going over the facts as presented by Hollister to determine if warrants were justified, From Fox Lake residents it was learned thit members of the oid re-- gime and the new had failed to strike a common ground on which to administer affairs of the city and that, as a result. Hollister had not been given an opportunity io carty wut his projects. Hollister® charged. Col. Smith ad-- mitted. that HMHamberger operated a bardware store and solé supplies to the city although he was a trustee who investigated and approved his ow D bills. Both Hamberger and _ Brydges were emploved by the village, Hol-- l!ister told the prosecutor, to elrcu-- late petitions to gain approval for public improvements. Both oft the trustees accepted money for this and approved the expendtture, cac-- vording to Hollister's story. MAYOR ASKS THAT TWO ALDERMEN BE OUSTED BY STATE Brydges, Col.
