PHALEN PARK ASSESSMENT.
Judge Bum Listens to Objections in
the Case

The hearing in the matter of the
objection to the assessment for Phalen
park was resumed yesterday before
Judge Bum, pursuant to the cOntinu-
ance had last September. Most of the
day was devoted to obtaining testimony
regarding the method of spreading the
assessment.
c. A. Severance, Gen. John B. San
bern, H F. Stevens, Harold Harris and
Samuel Whaley represented the Objec-
tors, who are the owners of the proper
ty assessed for benefits, While Jared
How appeared in behalf of the owners

some $4,000 The city, which is de-
Tending the assessment. was represent
ed by Assistant Corporation Attorney
Phillips.
The DIRECTORS attack the assessment
on several grounds. They allege that
it was improperly made, that property
is assessed that is not benefited, and
that property actually benefited has
not been assessed. They also declare
that the price to be paid for the land
condemned is so excessive In amount as
to constitute in law, fraud. For the
purpose of ascertaining how the assess
ment was made, r. L. German, ex-
president of the board of public works,
and H. S. Fairchild, also an ex-mem-
Der, We're called as witnesses. They
testified as to the making or spreading
of the assessment. Later in the after
neon R. S. Mackey was called and ex-
amined as to the value of the land
taken Mr.. Phillips objected to the
questions put to the witness and an
argument ensued which will be resum-
ed at 10 o'clock this forenoon The real
struggle will occur today, when the
directors will endeavor to convince the
court that the price to be paid for the
land is much too high.

marine experiences, at Market hall, to-

Sweden, July Is. 1924, and came to
America in 1S47. Six years before the
Civil war, he entered the United States
navy, and served on the frigates Con-
gress and Falmouth. When in New

GARBAGE BIDS TOO Low.
DIR. Stone Says the Work Cannot Be
Done for the Price.

There promises to be a. lively discus
sion over the awarding of the garbage
contracts by. the council. Health Com
missioner Stone has presented the
mayor with a draft of statistics to
the effect that the work cannot be
properly done for the amounts named
by the various contractors in their
bids. According to the ideas of
DR.. Stone, the work cannot be done in
a thorough manner at $13.005, which
under the bids recently submitted, Is
the aggregate cost of the collection
and disposition of garbage for the
coming year.
Mayor Doran, seen yesterday after
noon, said there were evidently two
sides of the question. and from the
contractor who had the work to do in
1895 he learned that in the entire city
there were about 5000 receptacles fur
nished by the householders in that
year, in which garbage was placed to
be removed. The facts and figures
laid before him by the health COM
missioner, the mayor stated. would
be sent to the assembly Thursday
evening for consideration. There would
be no recommendation, so far as he
was concerned, as to what action
should be taken by the council.
One of the councilmen, in speaking
Of the matter yesterday, said there
appeared to be considerable interest
manifested suddenly as to the ques-
ton Of garbage. The bids for next
year were within $500 of the amount
paid by the city for the work during
the current year. There had been
no great fuss raised over the manner
in which the work had been done
during the year, and he failed to see
why there should be any particular
agitation at this time. 1t might, he
said be owing to the awards for doing
the work in several of the districts
being let to the lowest instead of the
highest bidder. The health depart
ment, aside from imposing fines each
month, ranging from $50 to $780, on
the contractor, had frequently inform
ed the council that the work was be-
ing satisfactorily done

CONCRETE IS PROMISING.
1t Is Likely to Be Used at Meeker
Island.

1t is more than probable that con-
crete will enter largely into the con-
struction of the new dam at Meeker
island. Capt. T. V. Abbot, chief of
the engineering department of this
district, returned Monday from a trip
to Marquette, Mich, where he inspects
ed the breakwater, constructed of that
material, and he is enthusiastic in
his opinion of the concrete. 1t can be
used for most of the work, although
in the places where there is the heav-
lest strains, it will be necessary to use
solid rock. The engineer in charge of
the work at Marquette is authority
for the statement that concrete Will
Withstand frost and the action of the
elements.
Capt Abbot, when seen by
G o b e reporter yesterday, was non
committal as to whether he would
recommend the use of concrete, but he
will certainly figure on it. He thinks
the materials for it's manufacture
could be obtained to good advantage

In Rock county he found the Jail in
a very poor sanitay condition. The

tains but one pauper.
In Pipestone the jail is new and in
fact is not quite completed. The poor
house is unfit for occupancy being an
old farm building-.but thiy matters
little, one would think. as there is not
an inmate there.
Murray county has a new poOrhOuse
with three inmates. The Jail there and
also the one in Mobiles county are in
fair condition.
