Toward Securing the Stub
bIefie|d Home.
OVER TWELVE ACRES OFFERED
Trustees Inspect Various Stes-WiII
Reach Conclusion Some Time
Tomorrow.

Councilman Smith was the principal
orator at the council meeting last
night and he scored the trustees Of the
tubblefield home in a very severe
manner When a motion was made tC
donate the ten acres of land mention
ed in the resolution passed by the
council Tuesday night Smith said:
Il would have liked to see all of the
trustees of the Stubblefeld home pres
ont tonight to take action on this mat
ter and all of them should have been
here 1t appears to me that they are
letting the proposition go along in
rlipshod manner. AS l understand the
matter some of the council are In
favor of donating $500 to aid in this
proposition, while others are not. l
also understand if the $500 is donat-
d it will be vetoed There has been
100 much chasing of rainbOWs in this
matter, and l am about ready to wash
ny hands of the entire affair."
The councilman took the position
that the trustees were asking TOO
much. He understood that they had
expressed themselves as being Wiling
to accept the 10 acres first proposed,
without what the Ladies' Relief So
ciety had since offered. Now that the
society was willing to put in it's home
at $4,000 as a part of the required slo,-
O00 and that either the offers or w.
w. Baker and Mrs. John b. Allen
would make at the least about $I5oo,
he thought that the council should not
be called upon to give more than
$500. He then proposed that the city
make a donation Of twelve and four
tenths acres located east Of Water
town addition to the city
C. M. RAIDER, one of the trustees, said
that the trustees did not care where
the land was located. All they desired
was to receive the $4,000 or its equiv
olent in property.
The motion to donate the ten acres
first mentioned was withdrawn after
which by a unanimous vote the last
proposition, as made by Smith, was
carried. -
The Commercial Club was repre-
sented at the meeting by President
Harry H. Turner, and Judge William
H. Upton.
It was rumored on the streets today

Late this afternoon it was announced
that the freight handlers for whole

refuse to handle goods destined for
the street railway. A carload of strike

morning, 500 policemen guarding them
There was some disorder about the

At noon Mayor Harrison admitted
that nothing had been gained toward
a strike settlement and that he had al
most abandoned hope. The steam rail

be prolonged. Every available coach
