rolling mills at Capitol avenue and Merrill

MAY ACCEPT FRANCHISE
AGREEMENT EXPECTED BETWEEN
WORKS BOARD AND RAILROAD.
Mayor and City Omcials Inspect Thir-

Viaduct Plan.

President Megrew. of the Board of Public
Works, gave out statement last night
which indicates that the Indianapolis, Lo-
gansport & Chicago Railroad will accept
the franchise offered it last Monday,
which provides for depression of its tracks
at Thirtieth street and elevation at Geisen-
dorff and Douglass streets.
Mr.. Megrew said: THE franchise will
not be signed before next week. Asked
if he does not think the road Will accept
the franchise, Mr.. Megrew said: 1.-THE Of
ficals of the road are not comforting with
the Board of Works Tor nothing. They
mean business. There are large number
of little matters which the board and the
an understanding about before a franchise
can be signed"
Mayor BOokwalter. the members of the
Board of Works and Park Superintendent j..
Clyde Power and Acting City Engineer Gull
ley, made a trip to Thirteth street and
the crossing of the Big Four yesterday to
arrange a plan by which the indianapolis,
struct a viaduct east of the Big -Four tracks
at Thirtieth street, instead of between the
tracks and the canal. Mr.. Megrew said
it would be much better for the road
TO change its route so that IL will pass
Thirtieth street before il crosses the Big
Four tracks. The plan of building via
duct for the l., l.. & c. at Thirtieth street
east of the Big Four tracks Is much better
than having the road pass that street be-
tween the canal and the Big Four, he said.
Mr.. Megrew had a conference with City
Attorney Joss last evening.

WANT OIL TANK REMOVED
CITIZENS MEETING ADDRESSES RES
OLUTIONS TO COUNCIL.
They Fear Repetition of Recent Fire
and Declare Water in NefghbOr-
hood Is Polluted.

Eleventh ward citizens living in the vicin-
pany last night held a mass meeting at the
offices of G. Ittenbach & Co.. to draft a
petition which they will present to the city
authorities and to Council, asking that the
Standard Oil Company be forced to move
its plant out of the corporate limits of the
city. Over 40 property owners were pres
ent and the meeting, from the petitioners
standpoint. was a successful one. On ac-
count of the recent fire in the tank yards
of the oil company the entire neighborhood
has become apprehensive, fearing a repe-
tition might result disastrously to life and
property near the oil yards.
The meeting was called to order at s
o'clock and the following petition was
drafted and will be presented to-day to
the city authorities:
Whereas, 1t is the universal sentiment
of the property owners present that the
Standard Oil Company's plant is dangerous
to life and property in its present location
on account of liability of serious fires and
explosions, and injurious to health on ac-
count of the pollution of wells, therefore,
BE it resolved that we pray the honorable
city government to take immediate action
in regard to forcing the said oil company
to remove its plant from the corporate linn
tsi of the city by passing general ordinance
No. 5z, with amendments. and enforcing
the same at the earliest possible period"
A committee of seven property owners
was appointed to make canvass of all
the people who live property adjoining
and in the neighborhood of the plant of
the Standard Oil Company, and secure
means with which to prosecute the case in
the courts if necessary. The residents, 1T
is said, are determined to compel the oil
company to remove its plant. and will carry
the fight to the Supreme Court If neces-
Sary.
