Peace Conference Lost In Skirmish--
City Council Proceeding.

City Council Proceeding.
In giving his opinion to the City
Council Monday night, in the matter
relating PRESCRIPTIONS to the deed CON
veying IL portion OF tie Polly kellogg
property to this city, City Solicitor Es-
gate said that he did not believe 1t ad-
vlsable for this city 10 go into court for
the purpose Of obtaining additional
property. said to be purchased, ana
not included in the description in the
deed.
The property n question is that part
of the Kellogg estate, at the corner OF
Crosby and Maple sts., recently pur-
chased by this city, as site for one OF
the proposed new engine houses. Mr..
Kryder, administrator of the estate,
made proposition to the Council for
the sale of part of the property, and
the specifications In his proposition
were such that plans We're prepared
for the erection of the engine house In
the center of the lot. Council accept
ed the proposition and ordered the
property purchased at the price agreed
upon. Councilmen allege that the de-
scription of the property, in the deed,
changes the lines of the lot, so that 1t
would be impossible to build the en-
gine house in the center Of it. The de-
scription also, declare the Councilmen,
does not include the full amount OF
property purchased.
1t seems, however, that the City
Commissioners changed the plans of
the Councilmen, and accepted the deed
for the property. The Board set aside
the proposition accepted by Council,
and thereby, according to statements
of Councilmen, lost quite bit Of land
for which payment had been made.
with our eyes wide open we accept
ed lesser for greater" said Solicitor
Esgate.
President Fiebegcr said. who's re-
sponsiblc for this?"
II don't know replied the solicitor.
Mr.. Brady: Did tho Council ask
you to draw up a deedi''
NO.
Commissioner McNlillen said that
he had no hand lI changing the plans
of the Council. Il was away when this
was done" he said.
Mr.. Paul said: "Didn't Council pass
a resolution, designating certain
amount of land? After Its being
changed by the Board, why was the
matter not referred back 10 Council?'
None of the members of the Board
volunteered an answer 10 Mr.. PaurS
questions.
President Fiebeger said: eve want
our own, and think that this is q
good case to so ahead with"
Mr.. Koontz presented II motion tt

ondcd by Mr.. Markle,
The City solicitor read from sections
of the Commissioner law points TO sub
stantate his opinion that Council hat
no right to purchase the land, 18th,
Commissioners only have right tC
purchase lots for tire engine houses,
said the Solicitor, "and this city coult
not win this suit in thousand years.

MORE TROUBLE.
The disputed land also came into
prominence during the discussion of an
item in the payroll.
The item read: "F'rank Lukesch,
extra excavation, s215O."
The extra excavation was caused by
the change in plans relating to the
kellogg property. and Mr.. Mcrz spoke
vigorously on the subject, asking for
an explanation concerning the extra"
work. He said: II think there is
something wrong. | think some one
is pulling wool over our eyes. Why
should these things always be hap

statement, the city has purchased three
