OF the Chamber of Commerce, and one Of
the possibilities in the development OF
real estate along both sides OF the rail-
way, and more particularly upon the
north side, is in the erection of factories
and warehouses to accommodate the class
Of business above described.
Mr.. Topham, yesterday. in speaking of
the reasons leading TO the choice Of the
site III West lexington, said II was nee
essary TO locate his factory near the
place Of shipment He said goods from
his factory were sent not only to every
State in the United States, bat 10 Can
ada. 10 Australia, and many points in
foreign countries. He said il was not
economical TO haul the material for manu-
faCtuTe some distance from the freight
terminal and haul il back again when
manufactured. The conclusion arrived al
in this matter seems the only logical one,
and other merchants and manufacturers
are turning their attention 20 the solu-
ton of the same problem in the same
way.
Sale of Fourteenth street Property.
Stone & Fairfax yesterday announced
the sale of the lot at the northeast
street The property is 107 feet by 40
feet, and the sale was made TO a local
purchaser, who intends shortly 10 i'm
/ prove the lots with a building Of a large
and substantial character.
Another Improvement Of considerable
| proportions was announced during the
week. The District authorities will aC-
/ quire by purchase and condemnation pro-
ceedings six lots on Fourth street be
/ tween Pomeroy and Grant streets. IN the
Howard University subdivision. On this
site will be erected the new sixteen-room
school building for which authorization
has been granted by Congress. This will
| be one Of the first Of the larger school
| buildings TO be constructed according TO
| the new ideas developed by the present
| board of education, the idea being 10
erect larger structures with more rooms.
and not so many small buildings. The
sum of $l25O 900 has been provided for
| purchasing the site and putting up the
| building.

DEMOCRAT IS ELECTED

Lincoln, Neb., May "a canvas
Of the returns of Tuesdays election

endum as part of the governing ma
chinery OF the city. The question

ed ten years ago, when the Popu-

It's adoption optional. At the same
time the city elected by a majority

the Republicans was that Lincoln
ought not to have a Democrat as
mayor, when Bryan is presidential
nominee next year. Under the in
itiative and referendum, II is provid-
ed that the voters may initiate any

CANTON APPROPRIATION CASE.
Probate Judge Bow Thursday
morning took I'D the preliminary
hearing in the case of the city OF
Canton against Charles ID. Rood and
Magdalena Sprankle. The city seeks
to appropriate a tract of land be-
longing to the defendants which
Joins the land upon which the NC
Kinley monument is being built. IL
is the purpose of the city to procure
title TO the property for park pur-
poses and In order TO prevent un-
slightly buildings being constructed.
At the preliminary hearing the
only question to be determined was
whether the city had proceeded ac- |
cording to law and had right to |
appropriate. After the proof was |
submitted the court found In favor OF |
the city and fixed the hearing for
May 20 at Q a. m, A jury will be
drawn In the meantime.
JUDGE BOW DISMISSED BAKER.
The third hearing that Attorney
Allen Cook had with Charles Baker
resulted In an acQuittal for Baker
just as the previous two hearings re-
suited. The third hearing was had
before Judge Bow yesterday. II was
the desire OF Cook to have Baker put
under peace bond compelling him to
keep the peace. The trouble between
these men, II seems, grows out OF
an unpaid grocery account, at least
Baker says II Is not paid while Cook
claims the contrary. After hearing
the proof. Judge Bow stated he could
see no just reason for placing the
defendant under peace bond and
accordingly dismissed the case at the
costs Of the prosecuting witness.
