WORK WILL NOT
BE HELD UP
Failure to Acquire Buoenzer
Property Will Not Affect
Building of Road
TEARING down OLD FOUNDRY

workmen IN the employ Of the p,
B. & W. railroad yesterday began dig
ging a trench along the tracks of the
railroad in the rear of Bubenzer prop
erty al Water and West streets but for
some reason it was held up
BY inquiry as to the cause OF. the
stoppage of operations it was learned
this morning that the delay was but
temporary owing to some slight change
in the companys plans and that work
viii be resumed in few days.
II is now said that failure to come
to satisfactory terms with Bubenzer
has not materially affected the plans
of the railroad. At first it was the in
tention Of the company to extend Its
freight track as far north as West
street at that point but now rails will
be laid only to Justison street The
tracks Of the main line. three in num-
Der. win be placed as first designed.
Under the direction Of Contractor
David Dangle workmen today began
the razing Of the old foundry purchased
from the Harlan and Hollingsworth
Company and work viii be pushed as
rapidly as possible. When completed
freight yards viii be established at
that point
A rumor was current today that Bu-
benzer might arrive at an understand
ing with officials Of the Pennsylvania
railroad regarding his property with
out the aid Of his attorneys.
MR.. MARvELs STATEMENT
Josiah Marvel attorney for Chris
topher F. Pfrommer. who owns prop
erty along the line Of lne elevated
road. said today that the statement
that the statement that Daniel Buben-
zer asks s125.Jv0 far HE (Bubenzer's)
holdings, is without foundation.
Speaking for Mr.. Pfrommer,' said
Mr.. Marvel. Il can say that his posi-
ton all along has been reasonable and
such as any other property owner
should take. Mr.. Pfrommer does not
desire to sell his property, but would
do so. Of course. II he secured his price.
The only price suggested by him has
been about one-third Of that paid by
the railroad for property just across
the street from him and about equal
TO the minimum price paid by the rail-
road 70 any of the property purchased
by IL for the purpose of its improve
ments in this city,
i would say further that Mr.. Rfrom-
mer has not increased his price ons
cent since the injunction was granted
by the Chancellor. The price suggest
ed a year ago was thought by him tc
be reasonable then ana I Is reasonable
now and he has no desire to force the
railroad to extra engineering efforts
for the purpose Of getting an unreason-
able price from 1t for his property
The story that Bubenzer demands
S125,O0 Is all nonsense. can fur
n.sh the railroad with al the property

TO BUILD LARGE RESERVOIR.
Engineers of the p. g.. & w. rail-

ss,nyrnora July -a.ct1he -COInilunlly Is
H. Interested In a case that con-
tains abhorrent features. tn Friday
evening last Mrs. M. Il. Foreacre made
afidavit before Magistrate Cnmmins
that Bayard Stanley, aged 25 years,
had been using her daughter. Clara,
who Is not yet rs years Of age, for inn
moral purposes.
The accused was arrested and the
girl corroborated her mother, her tes-
timony indicating that Stanley had
accomplished his purpose by threats.
The magistrate held the young man in
5000 bail for court.
on Saturday the mother, 1t is stated,
went to the Office of the magistrate
and withdrew the charge, the girl ac-
lcompanying her The magistrate then
ordered the young mans release upon
his payment of the costs. The under
standing was that Stanley's friends had
promised Mr. and Mrs Foreacre that
he would marry the girl
On Saturday evening the mother and
daughter. believing Stanley would not
keep his promise again visited the
magistrates Office and asked to have
the case reopened as they wished to
renew the charge. The magistrate
says he told the mother that this was
impossible "as that chapter was
closed"
Now the citizens of Smyrna who are
mot lawyers want to know how the
man could have been released in the
first place from this serious charge.
The girl as stated. is not yet fifteen
years Of age, and is about TO become
a mother.
The impression is that the ahidavits
of both mother and daughter which
lresulted in the mans original commit
ment, removed the case from the ju-
lrisdiction of the magistrate and placed
! it under the province Of the Attorney
General. The latter, It is suspected,
will now take cognizance Of the az
fair.

Explanation Of Disaster.

San Francisco. July 25.-George +.
Kutz. a retired chief engineer Of the
United States Navy, and now a marine
engineer with the Charles G. Moore
Company here. yesterday gave the fol-
lowing explanation Of the probablli-
ties OF the disaster on the Bennington.
In the published accounts Of the ex-
piosion Il does not appear mat the
shell Of the Bennington's boiler burst.
My opinion. based on the information
at hand, Is that the furnace burst in
ward--caved In. as it were-and that
the steam OF the boiler water shot
down and ont through the firebox and
then up through the hatchways, food
ling the entire vessel.
"The awful loss of life must have
been caused by the steam instantly
filling tue gundeck compartments
lwhere the crew make their headquar-
tiers. The men were cooked to death
before they could even attempt to es-
cape. sometimes water or steam
test does not bring out a defect IN a
boiler. recall having examined a
launch boiler thoroughly IL stood the
tests. yet when 4 had it swung clear
of the ground and tapped it with a
hammer I knocked a hole IA it The
spot I happened TO hit was correded
and weak. but so small IN area that Il
had not yielded TO water pressure. In
the case of the Bennington, ! am OF
the opinion that the crown plate. sep
arating the fire from the water caved
downward under the pressure OF
steam above"

A well known citizen of Roosevelt
writes to the Statesman that the game
law in section is being openly violated.
A large number Of deer and elk have
been killed, and the law otherwise
violated. No game warden has been
appointed for that section and no licen-
SEES can be secured. The writer says
that the Thunder Mountain section is
one Of the finest game countries in the
world, but in five years there will not
be a hoof Of wild game left there unless
the law is enforced.

Plans for New State House.

for the new state house. The fee Maid

architectural supervision of the build.
ing.
The plans and elevations presented by
the successful firm of architects shows
building modelled on the plans of the
Wisconsin state capitol, which Is one of
the three handsomest public buildings
in the United States
The commission proposes to emn)ov
convict labor in a great deal of the ronph
work. Only by adopting that plan can
the building be constructed along the
lines now proposed. The amount of
money available is comparatively small.
but with convict labor to quarry and
trim the stone, dig the excavations and
perform other labor there will be- snf-
ficient funds to carry out the present
plans.
The work on the foundation viii ba
begun soon. The commission will o;va
close attention to this feature of the
construction. It is possible it will NOT
Dc done by contract. It is believed that
by putting first class foreman in CHARGE
and furnishing the material a mucb
more substantial foundation can be se-
cured at no greater cost than if the
work were done by contract.

The Paducah sun. [volume] (Paducah, Ky.) 1898-1906, 1905-02-14

The city has had under advisement
for several weeks the matter of fur
nishing the city solicitor and prose-
cutting attorney with an Office, or pay
ing the Office rent of the same. There
does not appear to be any law requir-
ing the city to furnish these officials
with an Office, and II has never been
done heretofore, but If the city de-
sires to do it it's all right. If the city
desires to give them Offices, however,
why does IL not fit up the half of the
brick building adjoining the city hall
now occupied by the lookup keeper,
which would give it four or five
rooms that could be used for offices
at no cost whatever? At present the
city receives $40 month rent for
this half of the building, and is ask
ed to pay $11 as half the rent of one
attorneys downtown office, and the
boards allowed the other attorney
nearly 500 for last years Office rent,
This makes the city pay twice as
much money for Offices for these two
attorneys as 1t is getting for half
the house next to the city hall. II
could by converting the other half of
the house into Offices as the side far
therest from the city hall now used
by the street inspector and city en-
gineer, save the whole amount. II
the attorneys were not satisfied with
these Offices they could provide aud
pay for Offices that suited them bet
te, and not expect the city TO have
anything further to do with proyid-
ing them an office.
