PAIRING TO MAKE I'M
PROvEMENTS.

Manager Sam Jackson has formed
definite plans for the improvements at
the ball park aid will begin work on
both the grsnd stand and grounds as
soon as he can get all bids in and as
certain whether or not the cost will be
too great to move the grand stand.
~ will cut the middle flight Of
steps out of the grand stand" he
stated" and will have but one en-
trance. Both ends or one end of the
grand stand will be arranged for a
general exit so that the entire crowd
can step down and out of the grand
stand. have contractors figuring on
rolling the ground and one moving the
grand stand. IL do not have it
moved, l will make plank walk from
the car tracks to the park"
Mr.. jackson also intends to inaug-
urate a new plan at the gate. He
will have one walk way leading to the
bleachers and one to the grand stand.
He will assign the patronage to the
proper place from the gate and this
will do away with ticket takers at the
grand stand.

bottles under front porch aud "hoo-
dooed" her. She stated further that
she would not return until the bottles
and switch had been removed The

The Finance Committee Will
Recommend $1.65.
Held Q Meeting This Morning--Re-
ported That the Schools Will
Be "Shy."
MAY SHAVE RATE TO sl.6O

The joint finance committee Of the
general council held . meeting this
morning at the city hall to discuss the
tax rate for the year, and present were
President Reed, Of the board Of alder
men. and Chairman Hannah, Of the
council, and Aldermen Orme, Single
ton and Kraus, Councilman Ingram,
and Mayor Yeiser.
The amounts necessary to run the
various departments were carefully
considered, and it was stated after
the meeting that the tax rate to be re.
commended will be s1.65 as forecast in
The Sun yesterday, although Presi.
dent Reed stated an effort would be
made to shave IL down to LEO, five
cents less than the past year.
The council will hold called meet.
ing this evening to hear the recon.
mendation Of the committee, and the
board Of aldermen will be asked to
act on il tomorrow night ct the regu.
lar meeting. The council will also act
again on the street car franchise sale.
II tax rate Of 81. 65 is agreed on,
il may possibly result in clash be-
tween the legislative boards and the
board Of education. The latter have
asked the boards for Gas. 900 claiming
that this much is needed to run the
schools. while If the tax rate is fixed
at 81. 65 the probable total valuation
of city property will enable the boards
to raise but s35, 900 for the schools
with the maximum levy under the
charter, 35 cents, which is the same
amount the schools received last year.
The members of the board OF educa-
tion claim that they can get an i.junc.
ton and compel the general council to
make the tax rate large enough 20
raise the money they need, $46, 600 il
the general council has to impose the
limit, tl.65, which is the largest tax
rate second class cities are allowed. 1t
seems some Of the members of the leg
islatiye boards are under the impress
sion that they can make the tax levy
what they please and then give the
schools their 35 cents, no matter what
the latter may be, or whether IL is
enough, or not half enough, to run
the schools.
From present indications there is to
come up nice question in this con-
nection for the boards to settle.

William White is Believed to b6
Innocent.
The Other Colored Brakeman, VIM
Lightfoot, is said to Have Killed
Roy Sloan.
TRIAL SET FOR FRIDAY

william White, the colored brake
man who acknowledged that he let
Roy M. Sloan, who is alleged to have
been murdered by trainmen at Wood
stock, Tenn, Sunday night, ride on
his train, was yesterday afternoon re-
leased by Police Judge d. l.. Sanders,
the evidence not connecting him with
the murder.
William Lightfoot, however. the
negro arrested here, is being held and
will be given a preliminary hearing
before Judge Sanders FRIDAY morning,
when it will be determined whether
or not the evidence Is strong enough
to justify him in being held and sent
back to Tennessee for trial In speak
ing of the matter this morning Judge
Sanders said: 81 didn't think the
evidence against White strong enough
to hold him over and send him back
Now suppose I had done this and
White was caught and mobbsd 1t
Woodstock bv the indignant white
residents. Maybe he is innocent snd
then would be in q measure re-
sponsible for his death. This kind Of
business is risky. and from all evil
dence before me White had nothing to
do with the matter and Is . hard
working negro"
Lightfoot, however, will be tried
and il is said that he is really the
guilty person. Officer Dick Tolbert,
the I. O. Waterman here. who arrest
ed him with Detective J. Clumsy at
the pay car yesterday, stated that
Engineer f. +. Hudson aud his fire.
man, Mr.. O. r. Dean, would both
swear that Lightfoot and Sloan got ON
the engine together at Woodstock and
secured drinking water. Lightfoot
got impudent and Hudson kicked him
of the engine. Lightfoot claims he
was on the train and on the contrary
was in Paduoah. arriving here on the
night Of the 18th. The murder was
committed on the 10th so this would
let Lightfoot out. if his story be true.
"We can prove beyond doubt"
an 1. o. Detective stated this morn
ing THAT Lightfoot is the man.
Whoever did the killing used lantern
on Sloan and beat his brains out.
After having accomplished this, the
body was thrown of the train. Il is
one Of the most horrible murders on
record. Lightfoot once beat up Con-
ductor Fink, in an unequal fight, and
has done other things of . criminal
nature and is generally considered o
bad negro"
