MINNESOTA TRANSFER COMPANY
DESIRES VACATION OFF OLD
TERRITORIAL ROAD
TRY TO SLIP A BILL THROUGH
Resolution Is Drawn Strongly Pro-
testing Against the Measure
Aurora Avenue Improve
ments Held Over.

AS the committee on streets of the
board of aldermen was about to adjourn
yesterday afternoon Aid. Dobner stated
that the Minnesota Transfer Railway
company was trying to quietly slip bill
through the legislature vacating the old
territorial road at the Minnesota Trans
fer. Aid. Dobner also stated that the va
cation is opposed by every business inter
est in the Midway district. He thought
that the matter would come up before the
committee on municipal legislation of the
senate today and that the board should
go on record as opposing it by adopting
a resolution. The committee according
ly authorized Mr.. Dobner to draw up
such resolution, which was done, Mr..
Dobner's efforts receiving approval by a
unanimous vote.
The resolution protests Strenuously
against the passage of the measure as
introduced by Representative Rich, char
acterizing it as detrimental to the man
ufacturing and commercial interests of
the Midway district and forever closing
one of the most important thoroughfdres
between the two cities.
The resolution will be laid before the
senate committee at it's meeting today.
After considerable discussion it was de-
cided to lay the matter of awarding tho
contract for the curling and the boule-
varding of Aurora avenue, from Rice to
Dale streets, over for two weeks. This
was done on motion of Aid. Bantz, who
promised to call on every one of the
property owners on the street and ascer-
tain whether they wanted the street inn
proved.
The estimate of the city engineer as to
the cost of the proposed improvement
was $500, while the bid OF Fielding IL
Shepley, the lowest bidders, was S7,130. A
delegation of property owners was pres
ent and presented a petition with the
names Of seventy-nine property owners
along the street. who objected to the i'm
provement. Another delegation was also
present and asked that the improvement
be made. The specifications call for the
curling of the street with sandstone and
some of those present thought it should
be granite. Assistant City Engineer Will
son stated to the committee that either
sandstone or granite would be satisfac-
tory, and that no difficulty would be ex-
perienced as to durability.
A contractor who was present told the
cents cheaper than sandstone. Mr.. Shep-
ley, of Fielding & Shepley, however, de-
MED this statement.
The committee decided to make favor
able report on awarding the contract for
the curbing and boulevarding of Laurel
avenue, from Chatsworth to Victoria
streets, to Fielding & Shepley for s2,110.
DIR. Ohage's resolution to build toilet
rooms in the several public parks was
referred to the park board, as the COM

constructing a sewer on Margaret street,
from Arcade to East Seventh streets. His
bid was $3.50, and the estimate of the
city engineer was $341.
The hearing on the proposed paving of
Eagle street caused considerable discus
sion between the property owners fav-
oring the Improvement and those in op-
position. The chief contention of some
of the objectors was that they thought
the street could be repaired and + t in
good condition for about $500. Many
al gued that when the upper part of the
street was paved a year ago, the board
spread the assessment, and they We're
forced to pay for. paving done in the
next block above their property. Phe mat
ter was taken under consideration by the
board. The hearing on the Eagle street

was continued until next Monday after

The board also gave hearings on the
paving of Jackson street, from Ninth

CITY NOT CONSULTED IN SALE OF
HORNE ~ DAM
FACTORY
ORDINANCE IS VIOLATED
Lease to Site Has Expired, and
Clause Referring to Sale. of
Property Was Disre-
garded.

The American tin can trust has form
ally taken possession of the factory and
plant of the Horne & Danz company, on
the West side of the river, presumably in
the full belief that it's business will not
be in any way interfered with. There is
one thing, however, whicha~was perhaps
overlooked by the parties to the sale, and
which may result in serious trouble if
not in actual dispossession of the site on
which the factory is located.
The Horne & DAM company. secured it's
site from the city by virtue of Ordinance
14Gl, passed Sept q 1890; permission to
erect building on the levee and occupy
site being granted for a period of ten
years This term expired last year. and
the council has not since renewed the
grant of the premises. Until and unless
the permission of the council is secured,
the city therefore has. the right to de-
mand surrender Of the property. This
apparently has not been considered in the
deal with the trust. and complications
are quite likely to result
This is not-the only flaw in the DEAL
for section Of the ordinance referred to
above has been violated. This section
reads: mo rights acquired under this
ordinance shall be Transferred to any
other person unless the consent of the
common council shall be first obtained.
This has not been DONE .ef1this there is
no doubt, and the trust in openly con-
senting not to advance the prices of the
factory, for some time may discover that
it has mightier questions to grapple With
than the determination of the exact time
when prices shall be raised. In the alb
sence of any renewal Of the ordinance
the site has lapsed to the city, and, in
the second place, the late owners of the
business have done the precise thing that
the third section of the ordinance was
designed to prevent. 1t is an open ques-
ton whether the council would have
consented to a transfer of the site and
property. In the presumable absence of
any arrangement with the members of
the council on this point, it is safe to
look for some interesting developments.
