MEANS SAVING FOR CITY.
New Dumping Ground Gives Shorter
Haul for Refuse.

Although the city cannot formally
take title to the garbage plant site at
the foot of Twenty-fourth-st until July
l, the appropriation OF $27 900 for its
purchase not being available until
that time, Supt. Aldrich. of the garb-
age and street cleaning division, Is
getting ready to utilize the site. The
council will be asked to allow enough
money from the general road bal
ances to pay for putting piling out TO
the harbor line, and then the river
end will be filled In.
we will be able to dump 10000
cubic yards of dirt and refuse there
and will save 81 for every three yards
dumped says Aldrich. The saving
will come in the shorter haul to this
point than to dumping grounds in the
outskirts of the city. We shall haul
our dirt there from the district be.
tween Woodward-ave. aud Fort
Wayne, and as far north as Myrtle
St"
When the lot. which is 900 by 10O
feet in size, is all filed in, 1t will be
utilized as a city dock for receiving
sand, stone and other materials, which
come by water. Storage barns will
also be located upon II.

that all the property between the
Western boulevard dock and the garb-

TALK OF MAYORAL TIMBER.
Politicians Already Discuss Possible
Candidates for Next Year.

While II Is still a year and half
to the next mayoral election, specula-
ton is already beginning as to the
lines Of campaign and the candidates.
Naturally. there is more talk as TO the
Democratic nominee. and three men
are mentioned most strongly. Will
lam b. Thompson has not lost his fol.
lowing, while there are great many
who would like to see Police Justice
Edward j. Jeffries come out as a can
didate on a municipal ownership plat
form. There Is a notable undercur-
rent. however, toward Judge James
Phelan as the most available material
for the place The Judge has had nine
years on recorders bench and might
be persuaded to leave at the end Of his
eleventh year there. He has refused
TO make the run for mayor In the past
but many believe that he would con-
sent TO come out IL convinced that
the people of the city want him for
the place.
While Mayor Breitmeyer has the ad-
vantage for the Republican nomina-
ton, there Is more or less talk Of 9TH
er men as possible candidates, faction
al feeling having broken out to some
extent in the Republican party local

The prime motive for this ordinance
Is desire to prevent habituaI cheats

to tell where they take goods.

would make a collection agency Of tho

van owner said his drivers were un-

to go to school before they could obey

against the ordinance was that peo.
