Numerous Complaints Of Iueficiency-seek-
ing Relief from "a Contract.
The sprinkl;ng season is not yet q week
old. but there ere already a large number
of protests and complaints being flied at
the Office of the Board of Public Works
about the manner in which the work is be-
ing done. The board Is taking steps to-
ward r%emedying as man of the negli-
gences as possible, and Inspector Buschong
will be kept busy carrying out it's orders.
Yesterday morning at the meeting Of the
board there was a vigorous protest about
the dust on Coburn street. One OF the
property-owners who was In to see the
board even went SO far as to say that he
did not believe that the city wanted the
dust laid, because it was so deep now that
it served to hide the DOOR condition of the
street paving.
Complaints were also received from other
sources not only in regard to s%prinkling,
but also about the sweeping. Particular
attention was called to the districts which
are covered by contractor Robert Thomas.
Complaint after complaint has been re-
ceived about this mans work. and some
time ago the board addressed a letter to
his bondsmen. saying that they would be
held responsible for his derelictions. They
seemed to have been unable to make any
change in the state of aiIairs, and yester-
day she board instructed the city attorney
to take steps to relieve the city of it's con-
tracts with the man. liz is understood that
he will contest the action on the ground
that his contract simply calls for him to
cover his territory once in a specified tlmo.
and that nothing is said in is about how
clean the street shall BIO left when he has
finiehed.

HER QUEER DELUSI0N.
Mrs. Ida Delopp Believes She Is Pursued BY
Female Philanthropists.

Just before noon yesterday Turnkey Taffe
heard the sound of violent weeping in the
roll-call room of the station house. and, on
investigation, found a woman, middle aged,
and of respectable appearance. seated on
the stairway, and sobbing as If in the
greatest distress. Inquiry as to her trouble
eliclted a peculiar story. told with emotion
and half Historically. The woman said
she was Mrs. Ida Delopp. and lived with
her husband ut No. 20 North Pennsylvania
street. She said she had come to the sta
tiOn house to escape from the prosecutions
OF three ladies, who represent one of the
woman's Christian organizations of this
city. She gave the name of the women.
but could not be induced to describe
the nature of the wrongs inflicted
on her, only asserting that she was
afraid of them, and wanted to be placed
where they could not find her. She said
she left tho Oily the first of the week and
went to the country. butlt was OF no avail.
for members of the philanthropio society
followed her there. Mrs. Delopp. while she
related her woes. tightly clutcbed an old
teapot, and when asked why she brought
the utensil with her. replied that she in
tended making some tea for her friends.
This remark, compiled with the queer story
told, led the turnkey To believe her mind
unbalanced. and realizing the fact that be
had a mad woman to deaf with. he exer-
cised considerable ad%rOitness in offer
ing her the protection of q cell in the
female department. of the station. DR..
carp, police urgeon. was summoned, and
TO him the unfortunate woman again told
her singular story. He decided that she
was on the verge of violent insanity, aud
ordered her detained until her husband
could be notified.

STREET PAVING

Resolutions for Shelby Street and Arsenal
Avenue to Be Paved with Asphalt.
The board adopted the declaratory resolu-
ton for the paving of Shelby street yester-
day, and the material decided upon was
asphalt. The pavement Is to run from
Coburn street to the Pleasant Run bridge
and TO q width Of forty feet. There were
no property-owners in to commend or con-
denim the action as had been expected.
The brick people seem to have gracefully
submitted that they are beaten and to have
retired from the contest with nothing
more to say.
Similar action was also taken on Arsenal
avenue for the paving of it with asphalt To
q width of thirty feet. from Washington
street to Michigan. The fact that this
latter sction would be taken
was published in the Journal Of
yesterdsy morning. and it brought to
the office of the board Clint Hare. who Is o
large property owner along the line of the
proposed improvement. He came in early,
and asked the members of the board il
they expected to adopt the papers for the
improvement of the street at the present
session.

ident of the board.
but / want to know if you are going to
do anything about it," said the boards
visitor.
Mr.. Conduit said that he knew nothing
about 1t; that he had seen no papers for the
improvement. Mr.. Hare took it for grant
ed that that was the end OF it. and depart
ed. A few moments later the city engineer
showed I'D with the papers, and the board
adopted them.
Similar action was also taken for the
grading and graveling of Everett street. to
u width of fifteen feet, from Bloomington
to Decatur street.
Professor Denton, of Irvington. called on
the board TO protest against the i'm prove
mems of Christian avenue, along which he
owns some property. Otto Stechhan was
before the board, not long ago, with the
request that something BIO done in the way
of paving. and Professor Denton said that
he wished TO make it known that there
was no need of anything OF the sort. Tho
board assured him that the street would
not be reached in Its work this year.
A petition for the paving OF Second
street. from Delaware TO Pennsylvania,
with brick. was granted by the board. ana
the engineer was instructed to prepare the
necessary papers.
The engineer was instructed to prepare
papers for the laying of cement walks on
the west side of College avenue. from
Eleventh to Fifteenth street.
City Engineer Mansfield. to whom was
referred the petition for the paving of
street to Pleasant avenue reported favor
ably on it with the exception that the i'm
prOvement run only from Dillon to Reid
street, and IL was so ordered.

To Inspect a Garbage Plant.

Allen w. Conduit, Morris Defrees and
Adolph Scherrer, the members OF the Board
of Public Works, and Mayor Sullivan left
yesterday afternoon. at S o'clock. for Pitts
burg. where they will inspect the process
of destroying that city's garbage and night
soil by fire. When the board advertised
for bids for the disposition of the refuse of
indianapolis there were two received.
One wes by the Sirnonin process. which is
the use of chemicals, principally benZine.
and the other the one which they are now
on their way to investigate. The bid of
the Pittsburg concern was considerably
the lower of the two and as it disposes of
both the garbage and the night soil. while
the other only gets rid of the garbage. 1T Is
more than likely that the crematory process

Plea for the Extension of First street-Al-
leys to BE Vacated and Opened.
G. w. Stout cslled on the board about
getting an extension of First street. west
from the lndiana-avenue bridge. To do
this will necessitate the city donating
some of it's own around back of the City
Hospital. A few years ago it had land
there, and to spare, but every springs

ment if it was done properly. The board
addressed a letter TO the city engineer in
structing him to look the matter up and
ascertain what it would cost the city to
DO so.
Mr.. Stout said that while he was before
the board he might as well put In n protest
against the paving of Meridian street with
cedar blocks. He said that he wanted il to
be asphelted all the way up. He was told
that blocks would have to remain there for
this year. owing to the work of putting in
the W on the street, but that the board
hoped to improve IL IN better shape next
season. The following action was taken
on a number of alleys: DecisrstOry resolu-
ton was adopted for the vacation Of the
first alley north of Irwin street, from Belle
fontsine street TO the iirst alley west.
