INSTRUCTIONS
D|SREGARDED
bYTHEb0ARD

Great indignation has been
caused along North Division street,
north Of the hill, when it was
learned that the board Of public
works had deliberately cut off a
water main at Wellesley avenue
that the council had ordered to pro.
coed to the city limits and had set
aside the money for that purpose. :
This main was intended to fur
nish water to the region north OF
the Good Shepherds home, as far
out as Byrne's addition. The money
was set aside to lay the pipe and
the first the councilmen knew that
the order was not being carried out
was when citizens brought in the
word that the board had chopped
off the pipe at Wellesley avenue. q
John Chfistianson, property
owner of that section, visited the
city hall this morning with blood in
his eye and some Scandinavian cuss
words on his tongue. He was look
ing for Mayor Pratt to tell him
what he thought of the board of
public works and the mayors as
sistants in general.
Councilman Peter Nelson will
probably introduce another resolu-
ton in the city council ordering
the board of public works to carry
out the improvement as at first
ordered. Nelson was indignant over
the action of the board in ignoring
the order of the city council. 1t is
parallel with the action of the board
in countermanding the building of
the standpipes on the south side.

REVOLVER IS
IMPORTANT IN
MURDER CASE
(By United Press Leased Wire,

WATSEKA, ILL.,, April 2.-The
prosecution in the Sayler murder

with which Banker Sayler was
killed. to connect Mrs. Sayler, CO.
defendant with her father, John
Grunden and DIR. William Miller,
with the murder Ira Grunden, Mrs.
Sayler's brother, was placed on the
stand by the prosecution. He tes-
titled that shortly after Sayler was
shot and killed Mrs. Sayler gave
him the revolver, saying that she
had found It, Later deputy sher-
If took the revolver from him. The
authorities have been endeavOring
to ascertain to whom the revolver
belongs.
The state also asks permission to

show that Mrs. Sayler was present
when her husband was shot. instead
of running away as she remembered
she did. The court reserved its de-

FIRST WARD SEWER BEING
TORN UP AT EXPENSE OF

ANOTHER WALL FALLS
PRATT RESPONSIBLE FOR CON.
TINUANcE IN OFFICE OF
RALSTON.

To Mayor Pratt In the end be-
longs the responsibility for the
costly mistakes Of City Engineer j.
c. RaIston, as it is by order of the
mayor that RaIston is maintained
in office, in spite of his known in
competence, as 10 evidenced by the
records OF the court in the Spraguc
avenue fill case. There is no justi-
fication for the retention Of Rails
ton, which is but another and a
further disregard of the rights Of
the taxpayers and the best inter
ests Of the people. Here are some
more testimonials" as to RaIston-
ism:
FIRST WARD SEWER.
Crews Of men are engaged in
tearing up several blocks of the
First ward sewer in Union Park, de-
signed and built under the supervis-
ion of J. c. Ralston. The sewer
when completed was up and down
like camel's back, and as a result
during the heat Of last summer the
decaying slaughter house refuse
from the Stanton packing plant
clogged the sewer until a stencil
that was almost unbearable filled
the neighbOrhood This was caused
by imperfect drainage in the sewer,
which permitted the waste matter
to stand in the channel. In addition
number of catch basins, that were
in the original plans, but somehow
omitted by the contractor, are now
being installed at public expense.
The tearing up and rebuilding of
the sewer cases comes out of the
pockets of the general taxpayers, as
does the cost of Ralston's fearful
blunder in the Sprague avenue fill
