WORKS BOARD WILL
BUILD SEWER

If the Burrell Construction Com
pany fails to show by tomorrow its
intention TO carry on its contract to
build sewer in lower Market street
the Board of Public Works will revoke
the contract, which expires next Tues
day, and proceed TO have the work done
either under the award OF another
contract or by day labor on its own ac-
count
This was decided upon at a confer
ence held yesterday morning I'm the
Office of the Mayor. at which Works
Commissioners Aigeltinger, Eagan and
Duffey and G. II. Burrell. president of
the company named. were present.
Attorney James A. Devote had sub
mitted an opinion to the effect that the
charter empowered the Board of Works
either to let new contract for street
work in case of the failure of the
original contractor to complete his
contract within the time fixed in the
contract, or else TO carry out the work
on its own account on dle affirmative
vote Of fourteen members OF the Board
Of Supervisors that the work be so
done.
Burrell pleaded at the conference
that he be given an extension of ninety
days on his contract. which the Board
OF Works had already refused him.
President Duffey OF the Board Of Works
reiterated his charge that the Burrell
Company had not shown good faith in
prosecuting its contract TO an early
completion. Duffey said that Burrelrs
excuse for the delay that he could not
get sewer pipe and piles was not well
founded.
II was then decided by the city on
cials present that Burrell must by to-
morrow secure the necessary material
and show a disposition to build the
sewer at once. and only on that show
ing would his petition for an extension
be given favorable consideration at the
hands Of the Board of Works. The
board viii not brook any more delay.

Progress of the Work

Meanwhile the work Of construction
goes steadily forward. Notwithstanding
this is the winter season. Within nine
ty days cars will be running out of
La Porte, Indiana.
II happens that the first piece of road
needed by the company is that running
out of La Porte, in order to facilitate
the work OF construction. over this
track the company can deliver its own
materials, laying them down at precise
ly the point needed. Arrangements
have been made for leasing the power
necessary to run this portion of the
road until the big powerhouse to be
built on land recently purchased south
of La Porte is completed. The grad
ing for this piece of road has
been practically completed into the
thriving city of La Porte. All neces-
sary franchises have been obtained,
seventy-five carloads Of material have
been ordered for immediate delivery
and a part is already on the ground.
Tracklaying will begin in January, and
unless there is unavoidable delay in
the delivery of material, due to traf-
hc congestion. April will see the first
cars in operation.

MANY MINES RELOCATED

The policy of the company is to buifd

der of the road is building This is one
OF the strong features of the proposi-
tion which appeals TO investors every

road from Chicago to New York will
be a paying proposition for local busi-
ness alone. to say nothing of the enor-
nous trafic which it will command as
a trunk line connecting the two great
est cities OF the United States. AS
rapidly as possible this track from La
Porte will be extended west. with the
result that before many months cars
will be plying between La Porte and
Chicago This section will then be
built east to South Bend. then 70

reaches New York. Meanwhile the
completed divisions will be earning
