MEETING FOR TUESDAY
Of Committee / Consider Twentieth
 Street rossing Matter

Chairman Graham, of the special com mittee of the board of aldermen appointed by Mayor Drennen to consider the various remedies offered for lessening the danger at the Twentieth street railroad crossing has called a meeting of that committee at the council chamber next Tuesday evening at 8 o'clock
 He urges not only that every member of this special committee be present, com posed of all the chairmen of the regular standing committees of the board, but also all citizens interested in the matter; those living on the Southside and in other parts of the city. MT. Graham says that the citizens seem to be taking a great deal of interest in this movement, and he expects some very valuable suggestions to be given the committee by them.
 One of the latest schemes which has been suggested, is that of getting the railroads to move their freight yards from the heart of the city, as they are now situated to the outskirts of the city. where they properly belong.
 After all suggestions are heard, the com- mittee will formulate some plan and sub- init 1t to the board.
