was also passed. The street in ques'
ton is Walnut between the east line
of Lincoln and the west line of
Steuben avenues. The council went
on record In favor of making any
alley as drainage facility entirely
secondary to its use as a thorough
fare. The matter was definitely
brought up by the request of H. P.
Farrelly that levee be removed
from the alley next to his residence
so that it would again be open to
traffic. A motion was carried that
the alley be restored to its original
level condition.
The leaking sewer in the alley be-
tween Highland and Lincoln and
connecting Third and Fourth streets
again aroused much discussion
among the council members and
also remarks by ]. H. Simmons and
F, w. Nixon. Councilman Filson
as chairman of the sewer committee
recommended that the sewer be
fixed. All were agreed on that
point but the question whether re-
pairs or what would be entire recon
struction was needed, and the con.
sequent difference in manner of pay
ing the cost seemed to be trouble
some. Whether covering the ditch
would thereby properly repair the
sewer and whether the two problems
should be considered separately also
was in question. A motion was
carried that the city engineer ascer-
tain what is necessary TO put the
sewer in first class condition and
report at the next council meeting.
The parks proposition and plans
for rest rooms and several other
matters were not reached by the
council. An adjourned session will
be held Friday September ~.

important possibilities for the city.

make preliminary negotiation with
