crossing committee expected to meet
officials of the Consolidated road at city

swer in regard to the plans submitted
to President Clark a short time ago rel
ings in this city. Word was received
from President Clark that no decision
had yet been reached, but an answer
would be given to the committee not
later than Friday of this week. 1t is
the general impression here that the en-
tire matter will go to the railroad COM
missioners for adjustment. The new
law so provides in case an agreement
lis not reached between the city and the
company within six months from the
passage of the special law. This time
