The Paving Of Myrtle Street to Proceed
Immediately.
YOUNG NEWMAN ARRESTED
judge McCluer Diss0lves a Branch of
the w. C. T. U.---General
News.

Contractor DOherty announces that,
weather permitting, he will to-day pro-
coed with the Myrtle street paving
operations, and by the same token no
injunction now obstructs the grading of
North Second. The much argued case
of Doe against the city in the proceed
ings to enjoin the work in those two
streets, was yesterday dismissed, and
the temporary injunction dissolved by
the decision of Judges Crosby and Nc
Cluer. The opinion of the court con-
cludes: LAS between the city and a
lot owner, the city by its council is in
control of the street and may exercise
such control to the same extent as if
it were the owner. For derelictiOn
or malversation in exercising such con-
troll and authority this is not the appro-
pirate remedy, and we place our de-
cisiOn solely on the ground that in this
form of action neither the question of
the regularity of the council proceed
ings in ordering or levying special as
sesSments to meet the expense of the
grading OF North Second street, or paw
ing of Myrtle street, nor the regularity
or jurisdiction of the commission ap-
pointed, nor the constitution llity of the
Sliot WI piOf1okoho piOf III oPSStoA
assessments. nor any misconduct of the
council or other officers of the city in
the use or management of public funds
under their control be considered or de-
termined." Mr.. Marsh proposes to now
enjoin the payment by the city to the
paving or grading contractors any
money not specially collected and set
aside for that especial purpose.
The re-arrest of Frank Neuman,
charged with bastardy by Miss Carrie
Fairbanks, was caused yesterday by
Mr.. Marsh. who has been after the
young man in one way or another with
a legal whip for many months. Last
spring young Neuman was examined in
the municipal court on the same charge
preferred by the same girl and dis
charged. Prosecutions for perjury and
finally civil action for damages against
Neuman, in which he was mulcted IN
$4,000, followed, and it was thought the
whole matter had ended there. The
warrant is made returnable before JUS
tice Starke. of Oakdale.
Judge McCluer yesterday dissolved
the corporation styled the Washington
County Auxiliary Branch of the W. G.
T. U, on the application of the latter'S
members. The petitioners alleged that
they incorporated in 1882. but as they
were obliged to pay half their member
by reason of being under direction of
the state organization they were
hampered and hindered in the perform
ance of their duties, and were unable to
carry on effectively the benevolent
work for which they Organized. They
now preferred to do this work as indi-
viduals. or as a voluntary. unincorpo-
rated body.
