SHAPING PLANS FOR
MUNICIPAL OFFICES
Council to Finally Decide at Next
Regular Meeting.
ALL TO BE UNDER ONE ROOF
Proposed Additions to Present Chamber
Will Mean a Real City Hall for
Annapolis.

When Ithe City Council holds its
regular monthly meeting on October
ID. unless a special meeting should
be called in the meantime. one of the
most important questions to come Nj
for consideration and probably final
action will be the plans for enlarging
the present municipal quarters so
that all offices pertaining 10 the mu-
nicipal government will be grouped
under one roof.
Tentative plans have been mapped
out along several lines, one of which
provides for building on the lot in the
rear of the present Council Chamber,
upon the lot recently purchased from
the Independent Fire Company.
Probably the proposed plan that
will afford the greatest convenience
from every standpoint, however, and
the one which it is believed the City
Fathers will finally adopt, is that
which provides for building a second
story to the Chamber. have a large
room on the second floor for the meet
ings of the Council, and the different
municipal offices located in other
parts of the building.
The proposed additions will include
offices for the Annapolis Water Com
pany, now under municipal control,
as well as an Office for the City Col
lector and Treasurer, City Engineer
and the City Clerk. At present the
Water Company has temporary quar-
ters in a room adjacent to the Coun-
Gil Chamber, while the Collector and
Treasurer, Mr.. Winson &. Gott, con-
ducts most of the city's business from
his law office on School street.
City Clerk Philip E. Porter has
regular office hours at the Council
Chamber, and the City Engineers s
office is in the SOuthard Building.
The Council has had the proposition
of grouping all offices under consider
alton FOR long time, and it is now
hoped that active work looking to
this end may soon be started.

 President Hedges of the Browns believes Stovall will make good. MT. Hedges Issued this statement on the situation Tn deposing Mr. Wallace as manager of the St. Louis Browns, we deposed one of the grandest and most gentlemanly ball players that baseball has ever known He has been connected with this club since it's start and in all the last ten years he has been loyal and faithful in every possible way. However, we feel that the best interests of the club demand the appointment of a new manager. Greatly as we regret deposing MT Wallace as manager, the welfare of the ball club is paramount to the in- dividual. We want and must have. a winning ball club. Expense and ef- fort will not be spared to get one. For that reason We make the change"
 It is some consolation. however, to know that Wallace will drag down the same salary he received as manager and that he will play shortstop under Stovall. Wallace started playing ball
