CHANGING THE TRACKS.
Improvements Contemplated by
the Union Railway CompanY.

The Minneapolis Union Railway COM
pany, the corporation owning the union
depot is contemplating some improve
mentS to facilitate the handling of trains
in the union yards. The principal
change will be the building of a double
track iron bridge over the Mississippi at
the point now covered by the single
track wooden bridge which affords the
only outlet to the East side for
the big freight traffic carried on.
When the new bridge is built, the tracks
will be entirely changed. The bridge
over the tracks at First avenue north,
which formerly gave access to the old
Camp d Walker mill, will be removed,
us the railroad company owns all the
property between the tracks and the
river, thus making it unnecessary to
have crossing at this point. The re-
moval of the end piers of this bridge
will give opportunity for straighten-
ing of the tracks to Fourth avenue,
guaranteeing greater safety for trains,
and atfOrding better yard facilities.
Trans bound for the East side will ap-
proach the bridge on curve instead of
backing into the narrow cut at Fourth
avenue north, as now. A change is
being made in the st. LouiSatrack which
is on the West side. This is being
moved one track to the westward,
deal having been made with the depot
company satisfactory to both sides.
This will afford another track in the
yard.

would be burdened with an interest
debt for thirty years, for which sink
ing fund would have to be established.
Under the certificate plan the parks
cost nothing except what occasionally
has to be paid out Tor land condemned.
All of the new commissioners except
Brown seemed to think the certificate
system all right. Commissioner Brown
was of the opinion that under the GER
tificate system some property owners
pay, in special assessments, for benefits
never realized on account of the remote
ness of their property from the park.
Then Commissioner Ryan rose to offer
resolution.
"Mr. President" said he, II move
that all the hands now employed in Mr.
Loring's park be discharged, except
two, ore to feed the chickens and one to
look after the fences, and that all the
teams and wagons used out there be
sold or turned over to the fire depart
ment. l don't believe the poor groan-
ing taxpayers of the city ought to pay
for skating rink in the
wealthiest part of the city for the bene-
fit Of the nobility of the town. We
haven't any such vandingoes in New
Boston, and we have as much right to
them out there as the people around
Central park. Those people are rich
enough to pay for clearing off the ice if
they want to skate"
Commissioner Winston opposed the
resolution because the Ice in Cent?
park is enjoyed by people from all
parts of the city. Mr.. Ryan's resolution
was promptly defeated.
On motion of Commissioner Ryan, the
East side boulevard matter was post
1oODa6 and tho Cnanial communion n aU-
ing that question IN charge was request
university on extending the boulevard
along the old territorial road. 1t is
claimed that that part of the territorial
road lying between st. Paul and the
old st. Anthony limits belongs absO-
lutely to the university, it having been
given to that institution by the city
council in 1885. Commissioner Ryan
also desired that the mayor and the
city attorney ascertain if the Great
Northern road can be compelled to
bridge Its track at Eleventh avenue
southeast, SO that connection can be
made with the territorial road.
The matter of printing the proceed
ings of the board was referred to the
committee on employment and sup
plies. NJ. H. Eddy, II. w. Commons
and w. A. Kerr, of the Lurline Boat
club, submitted plaus Of the proposed
new club house. and asked that the
board lease to the club, for ninety-nine
years, the site offered some time ago. 1t
was referred to the committee on shore
rights and privileges. The budget,
amounting to 81 ,254.02, was passed. Sew
eral small claims, laid over from the
last meeting, were also allowed.

GINGENHUTT's RESOLUTION.
e. j. Davenport Says That Joe Is
Mistaken

E. j. Davenport, the eX-clerk of courts,
denies that there is a sum of about $780,
90 now lying in the hands of clerk Tir-
rell, part of which belongs to the city.
This matter was called up by Aid. In
genhutt'S resolution introduced III the
council on Friday. This money was
said to be the proceeds of FORGETTING
bonds. Mr. Davenport says:
The clerk of the court has no funds
whatever in his hands received from
forfeited bonds. The funds coming in
from such bonds go directly to the
county treasurer ana never come into
the clerks hands. | did not turn over
SS0.0O0 to my successor, and do not be-
lieYe that there is any such sum depOS-
iteu with the clerk at the present time.
My recollection is that | turned over
about $1,000. This sum was made up from
deposits made by railroads in condem-
nation proceedings. l presume that the
most OF that has since been paid out by
Capt TIrrell to parties entitled to it.
Deposits are sometimes made in mat
tiers OF litigation between private indi-
.Viduats, but it is very seldom that any
9amount remains with the clerk for any
length Of time, and it is also very-sel-
dom mat any sum is ever deposited in
which the city or county have any inter
est whatever"

There has been one park board meet
ing without discussion of Col. W. S.
Kings proposition. 1t was held yester-
day afternoon. 1t was special meet
ing, and the King matter will not come
up until the next regular meeting.
Immediately after the reading of the
minutes, President Haugan announced
the following standing committees:
Improvement - President Taugan, ex-
ofi1cio; Commissioners FolWell, Northrop,
Dahn and Ridgway.
udiciary-Bradish, Boardman and Stoft.
Employment and Supply-Allan, Board
man and Dahn.
Police-Winston, Demeules and Ridgway
Shore Rights and ileges-Northrop,
Love and DemeuleS.
Entertainment and Winter SpOrt-BroWn,
Allan and Ryan.
Forestry-Folwell. Loye and Brown.
Designation of Grounds-BOardman, Stoft
and FolWeQ.
Finance-Ridgway, Winston, NOrthrop
and Haugan.
The following special committees were
also announced;
On East Side Boulevard-Folwell, Ryan
and LOye.
on Powderhorn Park Enlargement-Allan
StOft and BOardman.
on Minnehaha Observation-Disclosures Bra
dish and Dahn.
On enclature-Fo dwell, Northrop and
Brown.
The enlargement of Powderhorn park
was called up by Commissioner Allan
and settled. The board decided to use
the $4,000 worth of bonds ordered sold
frr ba mt M nd
PowderhOrn park already designated by
the board. None of that $4,000 will be
used until the land at POwderhorn has
been secured. This is not bylny means
the total cost of the proposed enlarge
ment. The land to be acquired is val
ued at something like $125,OOO. The
owners of all but 900 of the property,
however, are willing to accept certifi-
Gates of indebtedness, and the $4,000
worth must be condemned and paid for
outright.
That matter settled, Commissioner
Boardman arose to explain, for the ben
eft of new members, the operation of
the certificates of Indebtedness plan,
and why 1t had been adopted by the
board. He took, as an illustration of its
workings, the recently acquired Sara
toga park. The property owners around
their willingness to pay for it. The
land was worth $4,000. The owners of
it agreed to accept certificates payable,
with interest. in ten annual INSTALL
ments. The interest would amount to
$4,000, making 100000 as the total cost
of the park. One-tenth of that is as
sessed against the benefited property
owners every year, and when the ten
years have expired the park will not
have cost the city or any of the people,
except the benefited property owners,
| one cent.
Under the old plan of selling bonds
every time property had to be acquired,
S75, 900 of thirty-year ~ per cent bonds
had to be sold. The interest for thirty
years would amount to $101, $50, making
the total cost of the park S176,250. I'm
der the old system S97, 800, half of the
purchase price, would have to be eX-
pended in improvements on the park, so
that only S37. 800, the other half, would
come back to the city on special assess
ments. The park, under that system,
would cost the city Sl3S, $50, and the city
