The joint session of the county commits

committee on streets from both branches
of the common council which was sched-
uled to take place last night did not ma
terialize.
1t is doubtful if another attempt to get
the bodies together will be made, as the
object for which they were originally
called is out of the question. 1t was
hoped that some arrangement might be
made between the county and city where
by municipal court and central police
station might be built in conjunction
with the. county jail. Since the county
commissioners decided to build on the OLD
site such a plan is out Of the question,
as there is rarely space for the county
jail alone without other considerations.
The county commissioners have clinched
: the matter by accepting plans and
specifications for the new structure
which do not make any provision for the
additional features.
Unoficially the county commissioners
say that the jail will, to all appearances,
be an extension Of the northeast wing of
the court house, and that there are still
two wings on the north side of the build

purposes If the city; desired to do So
