PASSED UP TO
R. R. EXECUTIVES
PLAN PROPOSED FOR ABSORB
TION OF SWITCHING CHARGES.
Problem Too Much for Flour Commit
tee-New System of Checking and
Sealing Is Suggested by Railroads
to Head Or Shortage Charges.

The executive officials of the rail-
roads will act upon the demand of the
flour millers that Minneapolis termi-
nal switching charges be absorbed by
the roads. The Minneapolis flour
committee decided, at it's meeting yes
terday afternoon, in the office of the
chairman, w. l.. Martin, that the ques-
ton was not within it's jurisdiction,
but one for the executives to decide.
The abolition of the present system
of checkers and sealers at the mills
was considered seriously and action
will be taken later. Now, the rail-
roads hire several checkers and seal
ers each; they check the loads and
seal and sign clean receipt. AS a
consequence, when shortages are dis
covered at terminal points, the rail-
roads have to resist shortage claims.
Under the proposed system the rail-
roads would furnish seals to the mill
ers, and upon their guarantee of the
load, joint signer would issue clean
negotiable receipt. Having checked
the loads themselves, the millers could
hardly make shortage claims and at
the same time the railroads could re-
duce expenses by dropping the sealers
and signers now employed. -l...- "a
It is expected that the millers will
resist the change with numerous Srea-
sons for retaining the system now in
vogue. -' a'.. ..-.-

One Of the taking features of the
auditorium plan is the offer Of the
company building the music hall to
grant it's use one day each week for
free public entertainments. The plan
underlying this offer is that programs
would be presented for their educa-
t1onal value and that the cultivation
afforded by such programs would be-
come an important force in broaden
Ing the musical culture of the city.
While there are many small must
Gales gicen free in the city, they are
either by invitation or so hedged about
by barriers that those outside of the
recognized musical circles who might
desire to go do not feel free to do so.
The concerts and other entertainments
given by the Thursday Musical, the
patriotic societies and others in
crowded sections Of the city are much
appreciated and largely attended, CIV
ing evidence of a real hunger for
good things in music, art and litera-
ture. The experience OF these work
ers among people who have little to
spend for pleasurs should set at rest
the fears Of some musicians that after
the novelty wore off the patronage
would not warrant the trouble and
labor Of providing fine programs and
that the concerts would not reach
those for whom they would be special
ly intended, the people desiring the
best but not able to pay for it at
ordinary prices. s.r-%-'

The period of quiet between the en-

statement made, by President Pritch-

Minneapolis photographers who are
members Of the employers associa-
ton say they have heard nothing Of
any such a break and that they would
be informed at once should one occur.
They think President Pritchard is
handing out cheering news to the men
who are now idle, but say that it may
be based upon the fact that in some
instances members of the employers
association have been granted per-
mission to continue at work merely
on account of peculiar conditions ex-
listing in their districts.

CITY WATER PIPES LET 10000, 900
GALLONS ESCAPE DAILY.
Big Leak Somewhere-Supervis of
Waterworls Was in. a, Dilemma
When He Started East Side Pump
.-...-
ing Station-Loud Call for Pressure
from Fire Department.

Was John Mcconnell, supervisor Of
the city waterworks system, between
the devil and the deep blue sea- when
he started the East Side pumps with
out notifying the city council water
works committee? This is the ques-
ton now asked by McConnell's friends
who are inclined to resent the at
tacks on the supervisor. ......
In the course of rather lively con-
versation between Alderman Schoon-
maker and Mr.. Mcconnell this morn
ing, the two important facts were dis
closed: That Mcconnell started the
East Side pumps under pressure from
Fire Chief James r. Canterbury, and
that for the past two months or more
the city has been pumping nearly TO-
100000 gallons a day more than the
community ordinarily uses in the win
ter months, and nearly ,as much as
is consumed in the summer months.
Canterbury kept calling for more
pressure on the East Side as soon as
the break in the Twentieth avenue N
main caused Mcconnell to shut the
water off from the east side at that
main. Jack didn't want to start those
East Side pumps, but if he hadn't
yielded to Canterbury's demands, and
a big fire had eaten up the East Side
because there was no water pressure,
he would have been up against 1t,
sure said one of his friends this
morning.
In the conversation between the SUI
pervisor and Alderman Schoonmaker,
Mcconnell admitted that the city was
pumping 10000 gallons day more
than it should.
why don't you find the leak?"
Alderman Shoemaker demanded.
How can without a tester, which
costs $250?" answered the supervisor,
and this answer recalls the system
now in vogue at the city hall which
compels the city to advertise for bids
on anything purchased at an expense
Of over 500.
The big break is supposed to be in
the river somewhere and will probably
be discovered only by accident, just
as the recent break in the Twentieth
avenue N main was found. It is not
regarded as possible that any big
business concern or block can be tap
ping a main to the amount Of daily
loss which the waterworks system is
experiencing. 1t is stated, however
| that the meter in one tenement block
on Cedar avenue near Washington
hasn't moved in two years, and althc
it has been repaired more than once
| the bill for that block has always been
| the same. There may be, others.
