This is substantially the message

mittee of the common council, as
result of a meeting of the committee,
Thursday morning, when Engineer
Frederick T. Barcroft's proposition to
defend his appraisal before the COM

The meeting, Thursday morning,
was a remarkable one in many ways.
in calling IL to order. Chairman
HARPER announced that the purpose
Of the gathering was to discuss the
street car proposition preliminary to
taking some definite action, but Mayor
Breitmeyer was along with his little
airship and invited the aldermen to
take a flight with him. All piled In,
with the exception of Aid. Gutman,
and soon the whole outfit was away
up in the air.
In the absense of Engineer Bancroft,
who declined an invitation from Aid.
Owen TO attend the meeting, the alder
men grew exceedingly bold. Those
who had remained silent at the con-
ference in the mayors office last week
when Mr.. Bancroft explained his pro-
position and expressed his willingness
to answer all questions, now felt quite
free to attack him. after first making
sure that he was not among those

vehement After looking around the
