Tne Government Official, 1t Ii Claimed I'm
authorized. Seeks To Carry Out Plans
Against the Wishes OF the People-Lesal
Opinion-The Situation To-day.
AS village attorney. H. A. Weld,
OF this city, was called to Milan Satur-
day afternoon, at the solicitation of
the council to give his opinion as to
whether or not the said council was
vested with the authority to tolerate
the laying of tracks through Milan,
without first petitioning and getting
the consent of the majority of the
property holders along said right of
way. Mr.. Weld gave as his opinion
that the council could not grant
such proceedings without violating
the statutory laws.
Why His Opinion Was Asked.
The circumstance which put Milan's
council in such an embarrassing po-
sition that MIR. Yields legal advice
was sought, was due to the fact
that Engineer H. Fl. Wheeler, who
superintends the construction OF the
Hennepin canal, having finished OPP
erations in that vicinity, of his own
accord caused to be laid a track
leading from the canal banks to the
Peoria depot in Milan, across which
the machinery. engines and other
materials used in the Hennepin con-
struction could be conveyed and ship
ped from the depot to the next
place of operation. Without even
having the consent of the property
holders, across whose lots and
grounds the tracks were laid, Euyi-
| neer Wheeler carried out his plans,
so far as the laying of the rails was
concerned. Expressions OF indigna-
tion went up from not only those up
on whose property the government
was trespassing, but Mr.. Wheeler's
unauthorized actions met quick re-
buke and were severely scored by all
the residents of the village. The
town council was finally appealed to,
but it being in doubt as to how to
move in the matter. sought the legal
advice of H. A. Weld, who gave his
opinion as stated above. While the
laying of the track was completed,
none of the proposed hauling was
done.
Today's SituatiOn.j
The Milan populace is pretty well
worked up over the affair, and as yet
nothing has passed over the tenn
porary railway. A petition is being
circulated among the property hold
ers today. granting the prosecution
of MIR. Wheeler's plans, but very few
are signing it, apparently owing to
the fact that their property would be
in danger of fire from sparks should
engines be allowed to pass their
houses. President Caldwell, of the
Milan council, stated today that he
had given permission to Mr.. Wheeler
to pass over the track with empty
cars and engines, with the provision
that no fire be used for draughtins
purposes. So far no advances have
been made by the government.

Near the end both horses fell, ia
