IHe meetlnR OF tine bObru Ol AlutIineu
yesterday afternoon, though q prolonged
one. was not bit lively until after reso-
luton had been passed tEat when the
Board adjourned IL he To Thursday n orn-
ing, April q The thing that made the
meeting Interesting was the offering Of
resolution approprlasing sl0 600 for work
on the Blackstone Park. According to
the ideas of those in favor OF the Iesclu-
tion, immediate action was necessary in
order tDat shrubs ana eGs sloul1 DO put
out as early as possible. There was n
warm discussion soine time a9o over the
spteawa aud athletic held at Roger Will
Iiams Park, abo c,rtain mem bers Of the
boaru who opposed The speedway project
favored the Appropriation for blackstone
Park yesterday, and the friends Of the
speedway got back at them In "A way that
plsased themselves and made some of the
Blackstone project devotees very angry.
One alderman spoke very sharply To an
other while tho mayor was talking with
the city clerk about some matters on tns
table, and after the melting was over Al
derman Mccarthy accused Alderman
Reynolds of trickery, and the latter got
very nervous anu accused the former of
telng 100 zsslous In getting his consS,tu-
ent, positions in the diti.reut departments
VI the city Lali
Alderman freeman enjoyed the contro-
versy because he was friend OF the
81 ee.way and everything Al erman Mo
Cartny wants Alderman Fireman op-
poses, and there are memories Of a con-
test for pre- sident tf the hoard Of Alder
men that both men do not recall as the
pleAsantest event In their care, rs. While
Mr.. Freeman was Instrumental I'm de-
feating Mr.. MoCarlhy. the speedway
project has been dead ever since.

not to lay the appropriation on the table
until tue next meeting, and Alderman
key ynolds insisted, win Aid, rmen Free
man and Love, toat the resolution max
ing the appropriation lie on the table
under rule 5 until the xt nesting.

the ground Of economy. and said there
was an approx ration made a year ago
which it was Understood would cover all
the work TO te done ~ the park named,
and he asked for delay
Alderman Gray ursei immediate ac-
tiou rs the work should be fegun at
onqe, and said the original resolution did
not include tie work 1t was proposed
| now to do.
Alderman MCCARTHY opposed the lay
ing of tie resolution on the table and said
the moIey had been collected for this
purlose.
Alderman Vincent favored delay and

way appropriation being oelsyed.
