Rock Island Road Files Or
dinance Permitting Entry
of B. G. r. & n.
WEST SIDE TERMINALS
Right to Traverse Many Streets, Sew.
eral of Which Are Ungraded, Is
Asked-RaiIway Will Raise
Their Level.

Under the name of the st. Paul Ter
minal &, Transfer company, the Rock
Island road last night filed with the
assembly an ordinance permitting the
entry of it's new branch, the B. G. r.
& n. into the city The terminals are
located on the West side, directly east
Of Robert street, and in order to reach
them permission to cross the various
ungraded streets which traverse what
is known as the flats are asked.
According to the plans, the tracks of
which there will be two, Will, after
leaving the belt line bridge at South
St. Paul, cut directly across the flats,
meeting the river at point below the
bend Here a dyke will be construct
cd, and the river will be followed until
the terminals are reached. The track
age to be constructed will be about six
miles long, four of which will be in
the city limits.
The streets which the company asks
PERMISSION to cross are Robertson,
State, Fenton, Minnetonka, Chester,
NyandOtte, Alabama. Rutland, Eaton,
Amy Nicholas, Brott, Bancroft, Hal
stead, Kansas, Arthur, Winifred, Bel
Iidge, Lucy, Wyoming, Versailles, Nj
agara, Brown, Annapolis, Tennessee,
st. Lawrence, Congress, Bancroft,
Halstead and Whitman.
OF all these streets, only one is grad
ed, and that is State street. The others
are largely imaginary, the majority
having no other existence than the
names which adorn the city maps.
Much of the ground which these
streets traverse is unplatted. The
crossing of these streets also includes
a number of spur tracks.
For permission to cross this section
OF territory the Terminal & Transfer
company agrees to bring its tracks UP
TO grade, taking State, the only graded
street in that locality, as it's level. On
streets hereafter graded suitable
crossing are to be constructed and the
same safeguarded.
Crossing as it does much marshy
ground, the construction will be of
u costly nature. Heavy fills will have
TO be made, and where the line of the
river is followed, which will be from
about Missouri street west, an en-
bankment or dyke will have to be put
In in order to bring the tracks above
hlgnWater mark. This will reclaim
much of the marshy ground and pre-
vent the inundation of the flats, which
in years past has been of frequent oc-
Curence.
The Rock Island company is now
busy on its big freight house and ter
minals, which will cover two full
blocks of ground, owned by the COM
pany. The foundations for the freight
warehouse are now being put in and
instead Of piling concrete and. stone
are being used, this being sunk to bed
rock. Later the sandpump will be
Put to work and the entire ground
brought up to the level established
by the city engineer, and agreed upon
by the company.
Under the terms of the ordinance
the company has thirty days in which
TO accept it after passage, and must
Eegin work at once. When received
last night She measure was sent to
Ile committee on streets to undergo
inspection.

Often-M, Doran Sr. Annointed

Crawford Livingston yesterday ten
dered to Mayor Smith his resignation
as a member of the water board, and
Michael Doran Sr. was Immediately
selected to fill the vacancy.

out of the city frequently, and in his
capacity as president of the board
this was serious handicap.

Small Boys Cannot Wait
Until Today to Shoot
Themselves
BUSY WITH REVOLVERS
One Lad Is Dangerously Wounded in
the Eye, and Another Has Wad-
ding Embedded in His
Hand.

Hundreds Of st. Paul youths could
lot contain their enthusiasm until to-
day, and as early as o'clock last
evening began to discharge giant fire
crackers, blank cartridges and all
kinds of fireworks. The demonstration
was continued throughout the entire
night, making it almost impossible
for anyone to sleep, and as a result
eight casualties We're reported up to
midnight. Most of the accidents were
due to blank cartridges from careless
ly handled reVolYers.
Frank Kelnhofer boy living at 762
Butternut avenue, on the West side,
was one of the enthusiastic lads who
could not wait until today. The
youngster came down stairs yesterday
morning, and, noticing a friend with
a. pistol loaded with blank cartridges,
asked him to let him shoot it. He
took the weapon in his hand, and in
pulling the trigger he accidentally
pointed the muZzle into the palm Of
his left hand. The force or the pow
der drove the wadding into his hand.
DR.. V. J. Hawkins attended the lad,
and extracted the wadding and pow
der. Besides a badly burned and LAGER
ated hand, the boy did not suffer any
serious injury, and the hand will be
saved.
Shot in the Eye.
A small boy named Anderson, living
at 658 Lawson street, was badly shot
in the eye with a blank cartridge near
his home yesterday. The boy was
playing with another lad, and the two
became engaged in a dispute as to
who should shoot the revolver next,
and in trying to get possession of it
the weapon was accidentally dis
charged and young Anderson received
the discharge in his eye. DR.. G. w.
Doran, who attended the injured boy,
stated last night that he had hopes
of saving the eye.
Another to suffer injuries as the re-
suit of blank cartridges and a pistol
was George Farrell, boy living at
$50 Edgerton street. He was firing a
revolver, when some of the powder
from one of the cartridges struck him
in the face, painfully burning him. DR..
Doran picked the powder and dressed
the burns.
A young man named Charles Knut-
son, living at TAO East Seventh street,
in lighting giant firecracker last
evening, was just a little bit too slow
and the cracker exploded in his hand,
badly decorating and burning it. He
was attended by DR.. G. A. Binder, who
picked out the powder and dressed
the wound. DR.. Binder stated last
night that KnutsOn would not lose
his hand.

LEMON THINKS HE WAS
BADLY TREATED BY PALS
Secret Service Agent Eetke, Who Is
Running Down CIeWS, Will Re-
turn on Monday

Secret Service Agent Peeke, who has
been working on the case OF John
Lemon, who is awaiting sentence on
the charge of swearing falsely TO get
naturalization papers for Italians, Will
return to Wilmington on Monday. 1t
is expected there win be further de-
velopments in the case at that time.
His whereabouts are unknown, but
he may arrest other Italians who were
in the conspiracy. Lemon is only sore
against them because they have so far
escaped, while he is languishing
in jail. He alleges he was not treated
right by them. In several cases these
Italians, who were at the head Of the
scheme. got as high as SIS and $40 a
head for getting the naturalization
papers. Lemon did not get more than
$3.50. and sometimes as low as 81 for
the part he played in the plot.
IL was learned this morning that
some parts of Lemons confession were
not as complete as it might be. Some
of the officials believe he is holding
back certain information. However
the information in the hands OF the
Government is strong enough to war
rant arrests being made.
The grand and petit juries will meet
on Tuesday.
