DELAY IN EVICTIONS.
Park Board Gives East Side Squat
ters Further Time.


The matter pertaining to the East
side squatters was considered by the
Minneapolis board of park commission
ers yesterday afternoon. Attorney
lockwood reported that some time ago
it had been called to his attention that
some Of the squatters, knowing that
time, had endeavcred to sell their
houses and land. He therefore consid-
cred it his duty to place executions in
the hands of the sheriff. These had
been served. Since that time some Of
the residents of the fiat had come to
him and requested that they be not
forced to evacuate Immediately, but be
given some time so they could make
arrangements to move. The attorney
reported that the costs in each case
had been $1S.S3.
The board discussed at some length
the advisability of enforcing the execu-
ton Immediately. Commissioner Stoft
pleaded for the squatters, and urged
that there was no necessity for haste,
and moved to refer the matter back to
the attorney and committee on the east
river bank. AS this was done the
squatters will not be forced to move,
at least until the next meeting OF the
board.
The report of the finance committee
Oh the receipts and expenditures of the
board for the year was accepted. The
receipts for the year are estimated at
$2O7, 5S6.27, while the fixed charges
amount to SPOT 1886, leaving an esti-
mated balance on hand at the end Of
the year of $47.51 OF the estimated ex-
penditure $39,579 will be used in the
maintenance of parks and parkways.
