A SIXTEENTH STREET PLAYGROUND.
Purpose Of the Water Department OmoiaI-
~ Made Public.


At the meeting of the Board of Water
Commissioners, yesterday afternoon, a
communication was read from the
Clerk of City Council, requesting that the
property owned by the board at Sixteenth
and Walnut streets be turned into a play
ground. The letter also stated that
Council had received petition signed by
$50 persons, asking that Council recon-
mend that the Water Department make
a playground out Of the property. Mem
bers of the board stated that they had in
tended to make such use OF the ground
and therefore no action was taken.
The board some time ago requested the
Street and Sewer Department TO condemn
Wooddale avenue from Eighteenth to
Twenty-second street, and Iwenty-second
street to the Boulevard, so that water
mains could be laid there. A letter was
read yesterday from the Street and Sewer
Department stating that the owners OF the
property would deed the necessary land to
the city, provided the Water Department
paws for the execution Of the deeds, and
the grading. The matter was referred to
Chief Engineer Lessen.
An application was received from James
A. Hamilton, for the position Of superin-
tendent,of the new stable being erected. 1t
was filed.
The weekly payroll, s1,404l7, was
approved and ordered paid.

that the action of the carriers in deny
ing carload rating on tlckings, drills
and sheetings TO Denver is unlawful"
As regards the rate for 100 pounds on
cotton piece goods, the commission rul-
ed that the result OF the excessive rates
on such class OF freight between Mis-
souri, river points and Denver and APP
plication of full locals in making UP the
through combination rate from New
ford, Boston and other eastern points,
taking the same rate TO Denver, is to
make the through rate excessive, and
that such through rate to Denver to be
reasonable should not exceed $3.50 a
hundred.
The question now Is, What will the
railroads do since the commission has
ordered that the rates IN no case shall
exceed the transcontlnental or Callfor-
MIA rate which Is $3.50 hundred
pounds? II the water lines follow the
usual rules Of 80 per cent dfferential,
in vogue on all commodities, the cot
ton piece goods rate from New York by

stead Of Sl.S5, as It Is today. Mr. Kin
del says:
The waterfall lines must give us
the same rate basis as Is enjoyed by

Follows salt Lake In Rate on Cotton
Piece Goods


The recent successful agitation on the
part OF salt Lake Jobbers to secure an
equitable rate on cotton piece goods has
stirred up Denver which In turn has
secured similar concessions. The case
In point is striking illustration of
what awaits the proposed revolution
aries when their rate scheme becomes
law.
IN compliance with a recent decision
by the interstate commerce commission
and action by the Transmissour Traffic
association, the rate on cotton piece
goods from Missouri river points to
Colorado common points has been re-
duced from SIPS TO 50 cents per 100
pounds by the Burlington. Union Pa
cl1c, Missouri Pacific and Rock ISL
and The new tariffs became effective
March |.
This is the sequel to an investigation
BY the commission following COM
PLANT and petition for relief filed by
George j, Kindel of Denver. The de-
lendant roads were the Boston 4 AL
Dany the New Haven, and other east
dn roads forming through lines to Dem
yer and Colorado, common points and
relr excuse was that water COMPETE
lIon compelled them to make the rate
complained or In It's decision the COM
mission held.
Carload rating was established on
cotton piece goods from the east 10 the
racine because OF water competition
and the fact that duck and denims were
given carload rating 10 Salt Lake and
Denver to encourage manufacturing in
teres's In those points. While, else
where, throughout the country the
rate on cotton piece goods Is the same
Tor any quantity, It does not indicate
