ever, is that the work of repairing the
streets will begin at once. "A gang will
be put TO work on Bull street to-day"
said Mr.. Shreve. I'VE have not under
taken TO repair these pavements before
because the soil had to be allowed time
in which to settle. The open places on

the electric Light people and the new tele-
phone company all three hard at work

All sorts of Opinions About the Re-
suit at Tallahassee.


Tallahassee, Fla, April 16.-Every in
coming train to-day was loaded with prom
inent politicians from all parts of the
state Interested in the contest for the
United States senatorship. Hotel CORR
dors and porches are full of hustling Pas
co and Taiaferro men.
The balloting begins Tuesday and in
dications are that little business win be
transacted until the strength Of the lead
ing candidates is ascertained by a ballot.
Claims and estimates OF old politicians
differ very widely, but general opinion is
no man viii have a decisive lead on the
first ballot. Many are still of the opinion
that Pasco and Taliaferro may each re-
ceive from th4rty-hvc to forty-hve votes
on first ballot.
No reliable estimate gives Call over
eight votes. While excitement is high,
there is little bitterness. Practically every
legislator in town is around the hotels to-
night discussing the senatorial contest.
Few bets are being made and these are
generally even.
Tuesdays roll call will divulge the
strength of the leading candidates and
also settle question of entering a dark
horse.
Pasco and Taliaferro both express ut
most confidence tonight. All three avow-
ed candidates will address the legislature

COUNCIL MAY DECIDE TO-DAY.
Plumbing Ordinance and Quarantine
Questions to Come Up.


The City Council will meet this after
noon to further consider the plumbing ord
nance, and possibly the quarantine ques-
ton. 1t is stated that the board has con-
Guided that about everybody who desires
to do so has had say on the subject, and
that the issue as to whether the govern
ment shall be offered control of the station
is settled.
1t is admitted that the plumbing ordi-
nance has behind it a principle which
makes it one of the most important the
board has yet tackled. Many believe the
precedent 1t will establish is whether it is
proper to throw an Office holder out for
purely political reasons. There are few
aldermen who do not frankly admit, judg-
ing from those who are behind the move
ment, that the ordinance is indirectly the
work of politicians. With this fact In
view, and the further fact that the board
of plumbing examiners is TO be reorganized
without any one on it who has had any
practical experience in plumbing and san
itation, there IS much interest in the way
aldermen will vote. II has been impossi-
bic to learn exactly how the board stands
on the ordinance, but those who oppose It
seem to think it will be passed.
If the special committee appointed by
Mayor Myers to draw resolutions Offering
SavannaTs quarantine to the control of
the government is ready to report, this
viii be another interesting matter to come
before the meeting. An outline of the pos
sible provisions or at least, those which
were discussed at the first meeting of the
committee, were published in the Morning
News some time ago.
