Gilman Wallace took advantage of the OPP
portunity to show MIR. Lewis the condi-
tions existing at the Great Western rail-
road crossing on Woodbury. avenue, where
for more than a year past the residents in
that vicinity have been trying 10 induce
the city council to pass an ordinance re-
curing the railroad company to construct
a viaduct.
MIR. Lewis admitted that the crossing
looked a most dangerous one to him. but
was not. prepared to say what action the
commissioners might take In the matter.
He however. impressed upon Councilman
Wallace that the commissioners would not
take any action in the matter until suoh
time as the city council passed an ordl-
nance requiring the railroad to construct
viaduct. II this was done by the city
council the matter would be in such shape
that the commission could give it atten-
| ton.

each time he has brought it up it has been
reIegated to the background by the other

meeting of the special committee OF
the city council appointed to take charge
Of the negotiations for municipal owner
ship of the water works will be held this
evening in the once OF the chairman,
Councilman Wallace. The other members
OF the committee are Councilmen Olson.
Knudsen and Hendrix, 1t Is said the meet
ing Is for the purpose OF discussing the adj
visibility Of suspending all negotiations for
the purchase of the present plant and TAX
ing steps to construct an entirely new
water works system, with. possibly an
electrical plant as an adjunct.
The visit of Z. r. Sykes. a contracting
and construction engineer of Minneapolis,
is said to be responsible for this change
Of front on the part Of certain members
OF the special committee Councilman
knudsen yesterday expressed himself In
favor Of building an entire new plant In
conjunction with an electric light plant
He stated that the committee would most
likely engage the services Of Mr. Sykes
to make an investigation Of the present
plant with view to estimating it's value
and also prepare an estimate Of the cost
Of a new water works system for the city
and another estimate for the construction
of a joint water works and electric lighting
plant
As no appropria ton was made for the
employment OF n consulting engineer, It
is said that it is doubtful II the committee
under the circumstances can engage the
services OF Mr.. Sykes, and some of the
cOuncilmen are opposed to using any more
Of the citys funds for such a purpose, in
view of the fact that under the contract
with Harl g. FINLEY, special counsel en-
gagged by the city, the municipality has
already made itself responsible for the
payment to them under certain conditions
