CHANGING THE TRACKS.

the Union Railway Company.

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 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 IL Walker mill, will be removed,
as the railroad company owns all the
property between the tracks and the
river, thus making it unnecessary to
have a 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 a curve instead of
backing into the narrow cut at Fourth
avenue north. as now. A change is
being made in the ST. Louis4track 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
a resolution.
"Mr. President" said he, II move
that all the hands now employed in Mr..
Loring's park be discharged, except
two, one 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 ii
they want to skate"
Commissioner Winston opposed the
resolution because the ice in Central
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
poned and the special committee hay
ing that question IN charge was request
ed to confer with the regents of the
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
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. II. Eddy, II. w. Commons
and w. A. Kerr, of the Lurline Boat
club, submitted plans 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.

PoWDERHoRN PARK.

1t Will Certainly Be Enlarged
Commissioner Ryan an Econo-
mist.
There has been one park board meet
ing without discussion of Col. W. S.
Kings proposition. 1t was held yester
day afternoon. 1t was a 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:

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
E.. Al, Rf &haI n,N II
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 bya means
the total cost of the proposed enlarge
ment The land to be acquired is val
ued at something like S125,O0O. The
owners of all but $500 600 of the property,
however, are willing to accept certifi-
Gates of indebtedness, and the $50, 900
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
that park DetltlOned for 1t and expressed
their willingness to pay for it. The
land was worth $4,000. The owners of
it agreed to accept eel tificates 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,
5000 of thirty-year AZ per cent bonds
had to be sold. The interest for thirty
years would amount to SOL, $50. making
the total cost OF the park S176,250. I'm
der the old system S37, 800, half of the
purchase price, would have to be eX-
pended in improvements on the park, so
that only $37. 800, the other half, would
come back to the city on special assess
ments. The park, under that system,
would cost the city Sl3S, 75o, and the city

WAS IT INTENTIONAL?
Mary Anderson Seems to Have
Attempted Suicide.

AbCcH1Dtcu SulCluc.
Mary Andersen,a middle-aged woman,
employed as domestic in the family
Of Rabbi Samuel Marks, at 1877 Ninth
avenue south. seems to have attemp ted
suicide. At 80 yesterday morning the
family of the rabbi were much aston
ished at the next door neighDors loudly
rapping at their back 1oor, and On in
curing the cause, discovered Mary
Anderson lying on the ground. Her
bedroom window, which was on the
third floor, was open, and the girl had
evidently jumped or thrown herself out.
She was picked up in very bad condi-
ton. The doctors called IN said they
feared her shoulder was broken and her
hip dislocated. The patrol wagon was
sent for and she was taken to the North
western hospital. She had been ailing
for the past few days and complained
of slight touch of rheumatism and
feeling generally sick. Consequently
she had not been attending to her regu-
lar duties. Yesterday evening ply
sician, who happened to be personal
friend of Rabbi Marks, called at that
gentleman'S residence, and the rabbi re-
Guested the doctor to see the girl. He
did so-said she was suffering from
slight catarrh and was also somewhat
feverish. He prescribed for her all
ment, and nothing serious was thought
of the matter until she was picked up
yesterday morning. She possessed an
excellent character, and had been with
the rabbits family eight months.

lINGENHUTT'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 i'll the
council on Friday. This money was
said to be the proceeds of FORGETTING
bonds. Mr. Davenport says:
1.-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 and never come into
the clerks hands. | did not turn over
SS0,0O0 to my successor, and do not be-
lieve that there is any such sum depos-
ited with the clerk at the present time.
My recollection is that l turned over
about $4,000. 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 TIrreil to parties entitled to it.
Deposits are sometimes made in mat
tiers OF litigation between private indi-
.giduaiS, but it is very seldom that any
saIMount remains with the clerk for any
length Of time, and it is also very sell
dom that any sum is ever deposited in
which the city or county have any inter
est whatever"

Another Bridge Project.

Nelson Williams and George A.

to build bridge across the Mississippi
from the foot of Sixth avenue south.
Four years ago the engineer prepared
plans for such a bridge, but the council
took no action. A short time ago a
meeting was held in the Guaranty Loan
building to discuss the question, and 1t
was decided that the bridge was pub

upon the council, and the council will
promptly pigeonhole it. There is no
money for bridge building, and there
