W. MeCKRIDGE TONIGHT.
Prospects Indicate Large Audience
at PEOPLES Church.

In spite of the many important must
cal events that have followed each other
so closely during the past two weeks,
the Mockridge Concert company promises
to pack the Peoples church to it's doors
this evening. 1t is at least certain that
the Y. M c. A. is to score another pro-
nounced success with this third number
of it's fine entertainment and lecture
course. Whitney Mockridge was for a
long time the highest salarled singer in
any of the Chicago churches, receiving a
handsome income for rendering two solos
per week. During, the past six years he
has been singing in London, Eng, with
brilliant success. He returns to America
binging with him two English artists of
the highest standard, who have met with
peared in this country. Seats are for sale
at the Dyer music store, or may be had

TRUSTS new LEASE
FOR RENEWAL APPROVED
IN COMMITTEE
PROTEST FROM scHIFFMANN
Says Corporation Is Not Entitled TO
Free Site, as 1t Is Not a
Struggling or Infant
Industry.

The committee on streets of the board
of aldermen yesterday gave it's approval
to a fourteen-year renewal of the West
side levee lease held by the American
Can company, but the action was not
without a protest from Aid Schiffmann,
who referred to the concern as "a soul
less trust"
eff my memory serves me right re-
marked Dr. Schiffmann, "the West side
levee was apportioned among manufac-
tories for the purpose of fostering infant
industries. The Horn & DanZ plant has
got beyond that point and should now
be compelled to pay more than 81 6 year,
or 1-3 cents month for the ground it
occupies. 1t is not right that a firm of
this size and commercial Importance
should be pitted against some weakling
which has to pay thousands of dollars
for the ground it uses, and at the same
time submit to price dictations, or be
crushed
The doctor also included little history
concerning his own business relations
with the company, and the fact that the
company had increased the price of cans
fully 60 per cent.
Aid. Murphy intimated that the COM
pany, in spirit of revenge, might shut
down it's plant if antagoniZed, while All.
Moriarty interrupted to inform the COM
mittee that it was one of the best and
largest labor employing concerns on the
West side He also informed the COM
mittee that the company intended to en-
large the plant, which would undoubted-
ly call for the employment of additional
men.
The American Can company carries a
lease to one lot which Is now covered by
a large warehouse. The lease expired a
year ago. though it practically became
null and void through the failure of the
Horn & Danz company to come before
the council and obtain permission for a
transfer when it sold its holdings to the
American Can company
The application of the American Hoist
and Derrick company for an additional
levee lease for the purpose of charging
its plant on the West side was considered,
but no action taken. The company wants
to extend out into the river, and this
some of the members are opposed to.
They fear that it would interfere with
future trackage facilities for factories
that may be established below Robert
street, and at the same time endanger the
south piers of the Robert street bridge.
The company wants to make fill about
fifty feet out into the river on what ls
now a slough. The local federal govern
ment engineers, it is understood, are also
opposed to the plan.
