OBJECT TO NEW HOSPITAL
LAKE STREET PROPERTY OWN.
ERs PETITION COUNCIL TO PRO.
H1BIT TUBERCULOSIS INsTI-
TrTTE

At the council meeting last evening
a protest was received against the pro-
posed hospital for the treatment of tu-
berculosis on Lake street between For
ty-sixth avenue and the river. The
protest was signed by the owners of
real estate in that part of the city.
There were fifty names on the petition,
among them that Of E. G. Walton, who
controls 347 acres.
The petition was referred to the
council committee on health and hospi.
tails. and the aldermen Of the twelfth
ward. It will probably be considered
at the regular meeting Of the commit
tee to be held Sept. 10.
The chief objection against the pro-
posed institution is that it has ten
dency to depreciate the value Of real
estate in that part of the city and to
make it unsaleable. It is charged that
the proposition has already had that
effect and that persons who had ar.
ranged to make investments in that
part of the city are holding back or
abandoning their plans entirely.
