Several Systems Suggested by the
Council Conmitfee-Eseh Member
to Submit One.

Atameeting Of the special street nam
ing committee Of the council. held last
night, NJ. w. Willis, G. Cowden and W. II.
r. Barnes were present. The discussion
took an entirely informal turn and ali the
gentlemen agreed that IL would be good
plan for those Of the public Eho were in
terested in the matter TO appear before the
committee ard make suggestions Mr..
Barnes thought that il was Advisable for
such as had plans or systems 10 submit
them in writing 50 that the discussion
could be inteliigently carried on.
A petition was presented from ". Choir.
He suggests that the streets in Edes and
Knights addition. including the southern
portion Of the city, running north and
south, be named after popular flowers IN
alphabetical rotation, and the streets run
ming east and west after those identified
with the property interests Of the locality.
Mr.. Barnes was Of the opinion that
streets cut 70 Lake Washington, running
north and south. should be numbered BY
figures
Mr.. Willis saw endless confusion in such
a plan. on account Of the fact that differ
ent outlying additions contained streets
that ran in divergent directions from
the central streets Of the city. He
thought the committee would have its
hands full IN putting an end 70
Implications, and IN preserving the names
of streets which have taken their appeiia-
tions from those Of tine Pioneers Of Seattle.
suggestion that streets he named after
members Of the present city government
was promptly rejected. Mr.. Willis said
he intended to keep pegging away until
he secured name and sign for each
street
Mr.. Cowden suggested the plan Of divid-
ing the city into four quarters-nortb,
east south and west; that Madison be
taken as one base line, and Rose or Dn-
vanish street be taken az the other No
plan was adopted, and the committee adj
journed to meet on Friday evening. each
member agreeing 10 present some definite
plan for consideration.

A ROW AT THE COUNCIL MEETING.
Ballard soions Resent Editor morrow's
Freedom of Criticism

The patience of the crowd which always
gathers TO hear the Ballard council pro-
ceedings was rewarded on Tuesday night
with an exciting scene. =. r. Morrow, ed
itor OF the Ballard Express, regularly
attends the meetings Of the council TO re-
port the proceedings and occupies prom
inent seat at the councils table next TO
Councilman Dow. He also freely and
fearlessly criticises the town council in his
paper, sometimes praising the members,
but oftener censuring them. Last night
the council decided to remove Mr. Nor
row from his seat of honor at the table to
place not SO conspicuous outside the
railing. Councilman Abraham Kilworth,
In making the motion. claimed that Mr.
Morrow failed to report the proceedings
accurately and twisted the speeches of the
eouncilmen to suit his own purposes
All the councilmen voted for the resoiu-
ton except Matthew Dow, who voted no.
Mr.. Morrow attempted to speak, but Mr.
Kilworth objected and the mayor sus-
tanned the objection. The mayor then
said that, as it was the desire of the coun-
Gil that Mr.. Morrow be removed, he would
request him after tonight TO take a seat
elsewhere.
subsequently Mr. Morrow was whisper
ing TO Councilman Dow about bill
ordered by the street committee, when
Councilman Holland angrly said he OBJ
iected To the editor telling the councilman
how to vote. Mr.. Dow holly replied that
he was as capable of thinking for himself
as Mr.. Holland, and Mayor T. W. Lake
raped on the table for order.
In the meantime Mr.. Morrow waxed
wrathy and at the close OF the proceedings
was furious. He doubled his fists and
raised his arm toward Mr.. Holland and
said:
Let me get at that willy councilman
III make him pay me the $40 he owes
me-"
Mr. Holland. who was standing about
three feet distant. looked frightened. but
Mr.. Dow persuaded the wrathful editor
that that was not the place nor the time
to collect $40, and they both quietly left
the council room
The council has not provided accommo-
dations for reporters, all of whom EXCEPT
Mr.. Morrow do their writing on bits of
board, books and other supports placed
npon their knees. Mr. Morrow has al
ways occupied the seat at the table with
The conncilmen, and few months ago the
council seemed willing TO do him any
honor. That was when Mr.. Morrow was
praising some of the municipal legislators
but the editor changed his mind: so have
the counellmen. One Of the councilmen
in lusuiying his vote. said: II do not
believe IN Editor Morrow kissing me one
iay and sticking pins into me the next. -

Theater-goers express their satisfaction
with the production of 'Forty-nine" at
Cordray's in warm terms. Both the mat

patronized yesterday. J. J. Williams and
Sam Morris give finished renditions of
their parts, and secure the major portion
of the applause. In the auditorium the
Derville family appear in an act which has
already gained them high popularity with
Seattle amusement lovers. The Du Rel
