the treaty between the United States and

lRVINGTON ELECTION.
Two Parties Develop I'm the College
suburb.

The Irvington town election, which will be
held on next Monday, will bring into the
field two parties representing widely diff
ferent campaign principles. The Home
rulers, who stand for the unfolding of the
policy of the present administration, have
nominated the following ticket: Trustees,
Jesse Summers. Fred o. Ritter and II. U.
Brown; clerk, William NJ. Redman; treas
urer William /. Coons; marshal, Calvin r.
Mclaughlin. The party declares for the
permanent Improvement OF washington
street and opposition to the present method
Of preventing Improvements by injunction.
The other party, known as the Peoples
party have nominated the following ticket:
Trustees, William T. McVey, John c. Barn
hill and John H Human; clerk, Charles B.
Clark; treasurer, William l. Coons; mar
shall, Sam II. Smith. The principal point
in which this party differs from the oppo-
sition is in the stand the members take in
the matter of the Improvement Of Wash
ington street by what is termed the ccercive
methods of the present administration. The
technical point of contention between the
parties is that the name of William l. Coons
is used on the Peoples ticket for treasurer
against his will he being the authorized
candidate of the Citizens party. Among the
Improvements in IrVington is a bicycle path
to be built between the city and that sub
urb.

NO PAY FOR FIGHTING
CITY EMPLOYEES WILL NOT DRAW
SALARIES WHILE AT WAR.
Railroads Oppose Street Improve
ments-Beer Bottles and Bicycles
New Fire Truck.

At ths meeting of the Council finance
committee last night Mr.. Harstons ordi-
nance providing for the payment of salaries
Of city employees during their absence at
war was disposed of by the committee de-
Gliding on a report recommending that the
ordinance be stricken from the files.
Representatives of the Panhandle and c..
II. & I. Railroads and interested property
owners were heard with reference to the or
dinance providing for the alteration Of the
grade Of Southeastern avenue by the COM
mittee on sewers, streets and al
leys. S. o. Pickens and Engineer
Loree, of the Panhandle, explained,
in protesting against the ordinance.
that it would cost the Panhandle $1,000 to
make the changes required, as the track
would have to be lowered In both directions
from the thoroughfare. Mrs. Pickens said
that while the sidewalks had been made
with reference to lower street grade the
sidewalks could be easily and cheaply all,
tered to the present grade, and that the
company would rather pay this expense
than to change the grade of its tracks for "a
long distance. The most serious objections
to the change of the street and track grades
were made by r. d. Marshall, chief counsel;
Il. Jacoby local counsel, and Engineers
WdluO anu wilson, OIL the u, ii. d. i. COM
pany, who explained that the proposed
change of grade would cost the company
$4,000, inasmuch as their entire thirteen
tracks, from Washington street to State
street, and the grade of their yards would
have to be changed If the grade of the
yards were not changed there would be
danger in cars slipping back and causing
much damage, perhaps loss of life. The c.,
H. & l. people proposed a plan which they
regarded as just as satisfactory for the city
and the company as that proposed by the
ordinance. Stress was laid on the fact that
the c., H. & l. Company will have to bear
one-thlrd of the cost of improving the av-
enue from Washington to State street. To
this they made no objection, but thought
that they ought not to be compelled to go
to the expense of changing the grade of
their tracks for the entire distance in addi-
ton, as 1t would only damage them
The attorneys for both companies spoke
vaguely OF wishing to avoid litigation, but
insisted they were not making threats.
property owners were heard with refer
ence to the Improvement of east-and-west
streets above Pratt street, against which
they are demonstrating.
AFTER nearing demonstrators the commit
tee decided to recommend the passage of
the ordinances for the improvement of st.
Joseph street, from Illinois to Pennsyl-
vania street, and from Delaware to Fort
Wayne avenue; Fourteenth street, from
pennsylvania to Delaware street, from Illi-
noiS TO Senate avenue and from Meridian to
Pennsylvania street; the first alley west of
Meridian street, from st. Joseph to Eleventh
street, and New Jersey street. from Wash
to give the Southeastern avenue matter
further consideration.
