JUDGE BuRcH's BILL


The adjourned meeting of the eltl-
zens interested in the establishment oi
a dock line Mas held yesterday after
room, at the city hall. There was a
large attendance. and perfect unan-
imuy and good feeling prevailed on ali
material questions. Property Was rep
resented which was not represented at
the previous meetag, particularly some
on tue West side above the dam. and
some below the fulton-st. bridge.
The specific ohlec, of the meeting
Was 10 hear read and take action upon

bodying such legislation ~ is Thought

oat the establishment Of the dock line
on the lines specified IA the lali. ihe
specified lines are substantially those
adopted at the first meeting and as
published IN the Sl.IEc EcRAM-HERAI-D at
the time
The persons representing property on
the West side, above the dam and south
of the fulton-st. bridge, tell into the
project with celerlfy. They assenied 10
all that has hitherto been done, except
that they desired made some few
changes That viii tend 10 stralghtsn the
line as heretofore adopted and put lnto
the proposed bill. The bill VIII ifsst Dc
submitted 70 the mayor and c.sy attoI-
ney, and then sent on 10 Lansing. II,
during the preliminary stages ot the
bill, IN It's course through the Ieglsla-
ture, the owners of uhe property south
of the Fulion-st. bridge desire any
changes OF the line. apd ID run them 10
the extreme southern limits Of the city,
their wishes can be met by amendments
To the bill before its final passage Toy the
Legislature. 1t WAS understood that
these persons will get together and flx
something definite With relation TO the
matter.
Thus the citizens of Grand Rapids
may regard IL as virtually settled that
the approaching season viii bring about
the most important change an the ap-
pearance of the city that has ever been
made in It's history. Imagination can
scarcely picture beforehand what Grand
river will be In beauty and III sanitary
and industrial importance. The width
OF the river in the center OF the city
will be from iiye hundred and fifty 10
six hundred feet. This wall make a
channel both narrow enough TO ensure
a rapid flow OF water the year round
and broad enough 10 carry of safely
every drop of water that is likely ever
to get into it. Both AT the northern
and southern limits of the city the
channel will be much narrower than u
will be within the city. At tue j., g..
III. & NJ. bridge it will be 450 feet wide.
and at the sonth end of the city a ~ill
be S25 feet VIDE.

KINGSLEY HAD REASON.
He is Charged with the Commission of
aniInhuman Act

anInhuman Act
The fight of Patrolman G.. S. Kings
ley is explained by criminal proceed
ings which were instituted against him
yesterday by Max Fannhof, farmer
residing III the township OF Walker.
FannhoT alleges that Kingsley was
guilty OF criminal assault upon little
li-year-old adopted daughter of the
former, and fled the country to avoid
merlted punishment. The details of
the officers crime, as related by Mr..
Fannotf are of such n character as TO
stamp Kingsley, as being little short of
n monster. 1t is claimed that the gIrl
WAS taken from the Coldwaicr school
the same institution from which Nellie
Griffin was dragged to dishonor and
DEATH, and was nrecocious child.
She was placed in kingsley's FANNY,
consisting of wife and child, TO board
and attend the city school. Kingsley
had heeu bcfr.endcd 10y Fannhof, anu
hts gratitude was manifested by vicious
ly betraying the child. The crime was
made known by the confession of the
girl when u was discovered that she
was in u delicate condition. The par
tIcuIars are too cruel and disgusting for
publication.
Mr.. FannoH declares il TO he his de-
termination to bring Kingsley 10 justice
at any price.

NEW HEADQUARTERS
The Board OF Public Works Adopts
q Plan.
MYERS, OF DETROIT, GETS THERE
Out OF Four Different sets of Plans and
Specifications, The Piainest and Most
Digbified One Finally Adopted
Other Business.

The plans adopted by the Board of
Public Works yesterday. We're those of
Z. L. Meyers. of Detroit. Among the
plans presented. those of Architect os-
good, of Grand Rapids, called for Il
building the most ornate, and those
adoped were in some regards, the plain
est. Yet the Meyers plan is architect
urally the most perfect of them all.
The material OF the main walls is gran
lte boulders, md the outlines OF the
structure are plain and strcng. While
the building is by no means dark and
trowning.
The maximum cost of the new struc-
turc must not exceed $4,000. The
plan includes steam heating, Plumbing.
sewer connections, ETC., but not the
cells for the prisoners. The latter will
be put in under special contract. In
addition to the building proper, suita-
bic DOM is provided for the stabling of
eight horses. Through the basement
there will be q driveway for the de-
livery of prisoners. Storage room for
two patrol wagons is also provided.
1t is now in order for the board To ad-
vertisc for sealed proposals for the con-
struction of the building, and should
no tender accepta bic to the board he
received that will bring the cost within
the $1,000, then the design will be re-
jected, and the architect will have no
clam for compensation for the plans
already submitted.
hn additson -. Athe above important
action, the board has made estimates
Of the cost of paving various streets
with Silica Barytlc stone. The paving
of Kent-st., between Iyon-st. and Cres-
cent-ave., WILL cost s7,3l0; Pearl-st.,
from Ottawa-st. to the bridge, Sl6.525;
Monroe-st., from Pearl to East Fulton
ST., S3l 40; Crescent-ave., from Canal
to North Diyision-st., Sic, ,2SS.
