BOARD OF ALDERMEN.
Opposition to Change of Grade
on Olympic Avenue.
THE SOUTH END SEWER TUNNEL.
Mayor Halls Message Referred to a
Special Committee-ChanSe of Date
for Railroad Conference.

The unusual scene was presented last nigh.
OF large number OF residents of tho north end
attending the session OF the board of aldermen.
Judge Greene, George kinnear. J. B. Denny,
Z. I. Smart and many others were there for the
purpose OF urging or Directing to the leveling of
the grade Of Olympic avenue between Victory
and Short streets. There was as great
difference OF opinion between the alder
men between the residents OF the
north and south side OF the avenue. II was
finally referred to q eommitte consisting OF
Wilcox, Denny, Pontius, sweeney and Snyder,
who will meet today at o'clock.
On motion of Alderman korn, the mayor s
message was referred to a special committee
consisting of Korn, Wilcox aud Pontius, to act
with a similar committee OF the House.
Mr.. Korn announced that the railroad fran
ehise conference committee had on Saturday
decided to adjourn until two weeks from Mon
day, but he found that would be Washington s
birthday, so he proposed that the time be
changed to Saturday, February 20. This was
agreed to.
On motion of Mr.. Wilcox it was resolved 10
construct tireprooi vault in which to preserve
the valuable plans, ETC., in the city surveyor 5
Office.
The purchase of the triangle on Division and
Madison streets was authorized
Mr.. Denny reported in favor of proceeding at
once with the south sewer tunnel, and it was
agreed to.
On the question whether the city could
afford s., 600 for buoy, Fred Z. Sander, who
was present, said it was SO necessary that if the
city could not afford the money he would ad-
vance it for twenty years at per cent.
Resolutions were passed for the grading of
Brook street, Chestnut street, Rainier and
Renold streets; also, ordinance for planking
part Of Mikado street Several streets in the
Denny-Fuhrman addition were vacated. Co
lumbia street, from Third to Fourth, is to be
planked.
The ordinance granting franchise for street
car line on Third street to the Rainier Electric
and Power Company was passed
The petition of Fred E. sander to change his
Grant street franchise so that the line Will run
over Horton Instead of Kinds street was granted.
Petition against parking between the sidewalk
and abutting property on Drexel avenue and
other streets was granted.
A large number OF petitions were referred to
appropriate committees, and the board ad
journed until Monday night next.

SAWED THROUGH THE BARs.H
Five Petty Criminals Escape From the
County Jail.

County Jail.
Five county Jail prisoners, confined upon
charges OF petty larceny, broke jail come time
between Saturday evening and Sunday morning
and have not yet been recaptured. They were
all committed by Judge Rivers for terms not
exceeding forty days and their names are Frank
Wilson, George Davis, Frank Palmer, John An
derson and James Green.
The exact hour and manner in which the
prisoners escaped is not known. They were all
locked up in the same cell in the south JAIL and
by saving Off two iron bars made their way into
the main corridor, which extends entirely
around the double row of chge-like cells. II is
supposed that they got out of the corridor when
Night Jailer Woolery opened the outside door
and went inside to open the win
dows When the jailer opened the door
they could have slipped around the
corridor uuobserved until they reached the
door leading into the jailer's Office, which had
been left open Once in the jailer's Office all
they had to do would be to turn the night latch
in the outside corridor door, and from there
they could make their way out of the building
by at least half dozen exits.
Without exception the escaped prisoners are
hobos who have served many terms for petty
offenses. So long as they are out of the city no
effort will probably be made to bring them
back The men. have been wintering in the
county Jail. Wilson enjoyed but two hours of
liberty upon his last release before he was again
in Jail for stealing an oyereoat, and Davis once
remarked. .'Whats the use of paying out
money for your board and lodging when you
can get it for nothing" The officers say that
If the prisoners have left the city for good they
are satisfied that they should stay away.
