PAVING SIDEWALKS
THE CONTRACTORS BEGIN WORK
 IN PENSACOI.A.
Forty Miles of Walks Arc to Be Paved, Twenty of Which Was Contract- cd by City nnd Remainder
 by Reside nfs.

Pensacola. Fla, Feb. 2s.-{Special.)-- The work of building approximately forty miles of sidewalks. twenty miles contracted by the city and the re- ma!nder by residents who are not fin what is known as the sidewalk dis- trict, commenced this morning by a Birmingham firm, which received the contract from the city at 10 cents per foot, with discount of 10 per cent for cash, and with an agreement that any property owner in the city can en- joy the same price and advantages as under the city contract.
 The city has undertaken to have all of the sidewalks in the down town district built uniformly, and under the charter 1t has the power to do so, provided thirty days notice Is given the property owner that It is the inten- ton to do so. This thirty days notice has been given and the work has now commenced and 1t Is expected that fully a year will elapse before the im- mense contract Is completed. Under the terms. of the contract, the property owner has 4he Tight to pay cash. and secure the 10 per cent discount or to pay one-fourth cash and the balance in three years at 6 per cent interest. Many have already chosen the latter.
 A Strong Denial.
 A strong denial that Eastman Spears. the negro who last Monday killed young Ernest Mertins. is in the County jail has been made. although the officers admit that the two United States prisoners have been brought here from the navy yard and placed in jail.
 The commandant of the navy yard, when called up over the telephone. con- Armed the statement that the negro had not been taken from that place. but Is still held in custody. It is prob- able that when the negro leaves the navy yard he will be taken to some other county until the date of the trial. There has been much comment in out side circles regarding the action of the commandant of the navy yard sending troops to the city to protect the pris- oner, and without authority from Washington, but this action was taken upon the urgent request of the sheriff. and also from Judge w. B. Sheppard of the United States Court, who stated that he would correspond at once with the department If the commandant would only act at once. It was real ized that If once trouble arose that it would be of very serious consequence, inasmuch as thousands of persons were on the streets in mask celebrating Mardi Gras. Governor Broward. in or der to clarify the situation has made a formal request for troops, and this, with the request to the department upon the part of Judge Sheppard has complied with all necessary require- ments for sending government troops to assist State and county officers.
