The other plan that is being consid-
cred by the Plaza block owners is the
drawing back of their front property
line on Pioneer plaza in order to elm
mate a portion of the projection which
now interferes with traffic and gives
that side of the plaza an irregular
shape.
In connection with this plan, Gen.
Mills has made an offer to the city to
set the southeast corner Of his build
ing back Is feet if he be permitted to
extend the southwest corner out an
equal distance. BY doing this the
passageway in front of the Sheldon
would be widemed to permit double
street car tracks and heavy traffic to
pass through the plazas without caus-
ing a blockade. A conference between
the mayor and Gen. Mills's representa-
tive will be held while the general is
here to consider the proposed change
Should this change be agreed to and the
Plaza block owners set their property
back. very nearly straight line would
be established between the oregon
street corner and the Herald building.

ROME PREPARING FOR
EXHIBITION OF 1911
Wants Modern Gas Works Re-
moved from Circus MaximuS

ROME,sJuly appropriations for the
exhibition of 1911 are proceeding WIN
rather more alacrity Parliament mas
been asked to grant an extra allowance
to civil servants and other government
functionaries in view of the rise OF
prices and rents which is certain TO
take place next year, and the Conte Gil
san MARITIME, the chairman of the COM
mittee, and his friends have, delivered
series of lectures on what has been
and what remains to be done.
The most interesting of these
speeches are that of Professor Ian
ciani, who described the archaeological
exhibition proposed to be held in the
baths of Diocletian, and illustrative
of the relations between imperial Rome
and her thirty-six provinces, and that
of Colonial Borgatti on the artistic,
geographical and military collections
of later periods in the castle of San
Angelo. The work of the so-called
zona monumentale between the arch
of Constantine and the walls is also
going on, and Professor Ciccottl mas
presented to parliament the report Oh
the parliamentary commission appoint
ed to examine the notifications of the
two original schemes. The report,
signed by all the commissioners, con-
stitutes a complete refutation of Pro-
fessor Baccellis theory that vast

to a democratic newspaper, by line

and cover forever those monuments
of "the goddess Rome" which are be-
lieved to be buried in that region OF
the city.
Professor Ciccotti also urges the re-
moVal of the hideous gasworks from
the Maximus and the excavation of
that area. His report ends with mo-
ton urging the government to intro
duce a bill before the end of the year
providing that the zona monumentale
shall be thoroughly excavated, and
that such excavations shall be in no
wise jeopardized by the present works.
Another similar question, that of the
recovery of the Roman ships from the
lake of Nemi has been raised in the
chamber by a deputy, who drew the
governments attention to the state
ment of an illustrated newspaper that
bronze statue, a portion of one of
the ships, had been on sole In London.

SUPREME COURT UPHOLDS
PAROLE LAW OF ILLINOIS
Three Hundred and TWenty-Four
ConviCts Will Be Held Until
They Find Employment

CHICAGO, July 2.-One hundred and
seventy-five paroled convicts from the
Joliet prison, who since last February
had lived in dread of being forced TO
give up their positions and return to
their prison cells, became free men yes
terday.
Since the ruling of the supreme court
that the parole law was constitutional
they feared their paroles would We
declared void. but under the court s
decision the state pardon board yester-
day recommended their final discharge.
Within two weeks the majority of the
324 prisoners serving indeterminate
sentences, who have been confined elev-
en- months or more, will be told that
they have won paroles, but instead or
being sent out to freedom they will be
kept with forty-three other convicts in
their cells.
The reason is that no employment
has been obtained for them Some who
will obtain paroles will be cared for
by friends or by societies that assist
convicts, but the greater number have
no prospects of a position and cannot
be released until a place is waiting.
