purchase by the city Of the Seattle
Transfer company's site for the
new city stables. the deal TO make
this purchase was revived at the

The exposure OF this deal ut the
time the tacit offer was made
threatened TO develop into a gen.
eral scandal. and Goddard was not
even allowed TO officially tell his
story TO the city council, which he
asked to do. The matter was
hushed up as quickly rs possible
and those who before had been so
persistent In efforts TO have the
city purchase this property went
to talking about how much better
Il would be for the city stables to
