EXAMINING 1T.
The Council Committee and Others
Inspect the Ross Kennedy
Building.

Du1luluS.
This morning Aldermen Mackey
and HOefling and several cOntrac-
tors spent the morning inspecting
the Ross Kennedy building, on
SOledad street, which the city en-
gineer recently reported unsafe. 1t
is pretty broadly intimated that
an individual with whom the
owner of the Kennedy building
had personal encounter recently
has been seeking to secure the con-
demnatiOn of the building, which
seems to be as substantial as those
adjacent to it, and recently recon-
structed there. The contractors,
who have been inspecting it say
that it is not only safe, but sub
stantial and that the walls are
much more secure than those of
many other buildings recently
erected in the city. The walls
are much stronger than were
those of the old building destroyed
by the fire, and the safety of the
latter building was never ques-
toned.

DIRT BY MOONLIGHT.
Was Throwing it at
Great Rate

For some time several companies
have been trying to get franchise
for a street railway on the west
side from the city council but none
beyond that for existing lines has
been granted. The San Antonio
street railway company, however,
| have been afraid for some time that
some other company might secure
a franchise, and feeling that pos
session was nine points in the law,
started last night to steal a march,
not only on any other railway COM
panies, but on the city. Shortly
after o'clock p. m, by a precOn-
certed plan, that company took pos
session of South Laredo street, and
with a force of about 800 men COM
menced to tear up that street from
the corner of Nueva street and
working southwark. The way they
made the dirt fly and the rapidity
with which they dug by moon
light made the heads of the police
swim when they discovered them
there. They notified them to stop.
DllU IeSluenU w elSS, WHO was UHeTe
in person directing the movements
of his men insisted on going on.
Mayor Paschal was sent for and
when he appeared on the scene,
promptly ordered the work of tear
ing up the street to be stopped and
instructed the police to arrest any
and all persons who should at
tempt to dig up the street unless
authorized by act of the city cOun-
ell and having a written permit |
from the mayor so stating. The
work then ceased and the San An
tonic Street Railway company will
be called on to pay for the damage
done to the street which will be re-
paired at its eXpense.
Officer Peterson was sent out
with warrant this morning, and
at 10 o'clock he arrested j. w. |
Greer, superintendent of the San
Antonio Street Railroad company,
on the charge of Obstructing the
streets. He gave bond to appear
before the recorder tomorrow morn |
