The man IS a farmer and when a WON

spare potatoes or vegetables. he said. or
anything else he could give them. Finally.
thinking II would be the least he could
do. one OF the committee asked him for
few bundles Of corn stalks with which
to decorate "a booth lie refused on
principle perhaps, and remained obdurate
for q long time Finally. long coaxing
had some effect and he decided to grant
the corn stalks. hut on tho express con-

DELAY PROGRESS
OF IMPROVEMENT
Grading of Twenty sixth Street
May Be Impossible This
Year.
MARKET MATTER UP AGAIN
Frank Clencse Wants go for
Bruises Sustained by His
Daughter.

That the city will be unable TO af-
ford the Improvement Of Twenty-sixth
street between Thirteenth and Eigh-
teenth avenues by grading. was the
statement made yesterday afternoon
before the municipal commission as
the result Of an estimate by City En-
gineer Wallace Treichler placing the
cost OF the Improvement at al least
81 300. No official action was taken
on the matter 10 allow the members
Of the commission 10 inspect the street
and 10 see the conditions there which
require that action for the improve
ment be taken within a short time.
Clarence /. RitChey. representing the
property owners, and II. II. Hull, rep
resenting the board of education, talk
ed in favor Of the improvement and
urged immediate and favorable action.
The commission, facing financial de-
ficits on all hands. stated that it may
be possible to relieve conditions along
a portion OF the thoroughfare at the
present time and so delay final improve
ment for another year, when the funds
Of the city will be in better shape TO
carry out the Improvement.
WANTS 500 FOR BRUISES.
Frank CIenocse. 100 Forty-fifth street,
wants the city 20 requite him for some
minor bruises inflicted upon his 2
year-old daughter a fortnight ago,
when she was knocked down by a
wagon used in the employ of the city
for the cleaning of alleys. The driver
of the wagon appeared before the com
mission and stated that the wagon had
not run down the child, neither had
she been hurt beyond a few bruises
through contact with cinders. The
commission took no action on the mat
ter because no formal presentation of
facts was made by the father of the
child.

The much mOoted market matter
was brought up again yesterday after
noon and the question of pay for the
market master, days for operation and
time for starting the market was dis

gested as pay for the master and in
spector of weights and measures. The
opening of the market will be defer
red till the shipment Of standard
weights and measures arrives in this

days each week. The question Of
renting space TO vendors was left I'M
decided. II was the statement of Com
missioner Archie Hart that eventually,
should the market prove a success, he
hopes TO see II taken away from its
chosen site-Sixteenth street south of
Third avenue-and removed to Flat
