MIR. AMMAN RESIGNS.
Notified City Engineer C1aussen
That He Will Drop Out.

G. L. Amman who for the past ten years
has been one of the four assistant city
engineers under City Engineer Rundlett
yesterday notified City Engineer Claus
sen that he would resign his position.
Mr.. Amman has been offered a position in
the engineering department Of the Great
Northern railway and will enter upon
his new duties Aug. A.
Railroad engineering work is not new
to Mr.. Amman, and as he stated yester~
day he felt that his position in the city
engineering department was only a ques-
ton Of a very short time and as he had
received an advantageous offer he had
decided to resign. Previous to his enter
ing the engineering department Of the
city in 1899, Mr.. Amman had been con-
nected with the engineering departments
of the Union Pacific road at Omaha, the
Burlington read in this city, and had
several years of experience in railroad
work IN Mexico and was connected with
the Mexican central road as Office en-
gineer.
City Engineer Claussen in speaking Of
the resignation of Mr.. Amman said he
was sorry to lose such valuable as
sistant, but he felt satisfied that the
change would be for the best interests
Of Mr.. AMMAN. Mr.. ClaHssen said he had
not considered the naming of a successor
to Mr.. Amman, but would take the matter
up next week Report has it that John
H. jacobsen, of the firm of Ruechner &
Jacobsen, is slated for a position in the
city engineers Office if he will accept it.
The plan is to have the dutiese of Office
engineer which have been so ably cared
for by Mr.. Amman and a part of the
duties which devolved upon H. H Fuller.
given to MIR. Jacobsen who will be named
as first assistant engineer.
G. ]. REIN and T. T. Darragh. who
have employed in the engineering depart
ment as sidewalk inspectors were yester-
day relieved from duty. The positions
were created at the suggestion of the
local department Of the city, who in view
of the numerous suits brought against
the city for damages, decided that money
could be saved by having two inspectors
make reports TO the city engineer as to
the condition of sidewalks in all sections
of the city. City Engineer Cleussen gave
the two inspectors to understand that the
positions were to be abolished.

interesting information to give regarding
the new mining fields and the Northern

STRUCTURE TOO SMALL.

Supervising Architect Taylor returned

sites offered for the public buildings to be

opinion that the new building will be in
adequate for the use Of the government
by the time it is ready for occupancy.

measures should be taken 20 retain the
use of the present building for the diff

in the new structure. 1t can, he thinks,
be fitted up for the occupancy of the Gus
