INJUNCTION CONTINUED
Sewage Plant Pump Controversy
Comes Up in the District
Court.
---------
judge Caswell Overrules Motion
to Dissolve Injunction
Secured by City.
Ernest Thompson Seton Sc.
cures Squirrel Tracks--His
Change OF Name.

Judge Caswell this forenoon heard
arguments on the application of the
st. Louis Electrical Supply Company
to dissolve the temporary injunction
secured by the city restraining the
supply company from installing the
pumps shipped here for the sewage
disposal plant. The pump controversy
has been hanging fire for some time
but the city council expects to receive
which were called for in the original
contract. When received the city will
proceed to install them and collect the
cost price from the supply company.
The st. Louis concern, which has
pumps of another make on hand III
this city, sought to secure the disso-
luton of the injunction, preparatory ia
putting the pumps in before the city
could do so. After hearing the argu-
ments Judge Caswell overruled the
motion OF the company and will allow
the injunction to stand until the hear
ing comes on to make the dissolution
permanent. At this hearing 1t is
probable that the merits of the contro-
versy and of the two makes of
pumps, as we'll as the contract between
the city council and the supply COM
pany. will be gone into, as the court
informed the attorneys there were
some questions that could not be de-
cided without evidence. The hearing
on the application of the city to make
the injunction permanent is set for
Thursday of this week.

ANOTHER ONE LANDED
Galvanized Cornice Mandatory
Secured for the City by
Secretary Sears.
Leases Expected to Be Closed
Today..Will Employ 10
to Is Men.
Several Other Industrial Projects
Being Investigated or
Encouraged.

Secretary Sears, of the Commercial
Club. by hard work and without finan-
cial assistance on the part of the public,
has succeeded in landing the galvan-
lied cornice mandatory. At least the
lease for the necessary building and
other matters are expected to be closed
today.
The details of the project are not yet
ready for announcement until the nee
essary papers are signed up, but one of
the interested parties is here today for
the purpose of closing up the contracts
and securing the necessary building for
the installation of the plant. An option
has been held for some time on build
ing on South First street suitable for
the plant. The owners, as soon as the
business is started and orders are Sc
cured, expect to employ from ten to fif-
teen men in the manufacture of cor
nices for business blocks and other
buildings.
Asked in regard to the outlook for Sc
Sears spoke encouragingly. He has
been working to secure large cooper
age establishment, but this has failed
for the present, owing to the fact that
the man with whom negotiations are
being conducted has all the business he
can take care of at present at the two
plants he now operates.
Another shoe factory proposition is
being investigated, the promoter saying
he has the company already formed and
all that is now lacking being the loca-
ton. Something may come of this pro-
vided the company is not seeking q big
bonus.
Mr.. Sears is still in correspondence
with the men who were anxious to
move their harness factory to Mar
shalltown. This institution was Sc
cured, it was thought, at one time, but
owing to private matters of one of the
members of the company the negotia-
lions were declared off for the time be-
ing.
Mr.. Sears is working in conjunction
with a local capitalist with view of
forming a company and establishing a
large brick plant, for the manufacture
of vitrified paving brick and the better
grades of building brick. II the nee
essary combinations of clays can be
found In his vicinity there is a prospect
of the Company being formed. Secre-
tary Sears has several other Industrial
ventures In hand that may be developed
into realities,
The new cracker factory is testing Its
new ovens and viii soon be in opera
ton, and the pottery plant managers
are pushing the plans preparatory to
the erection of buildings, ovens, etc.
