ing the Club Through the Sale

J. E. Covey, ]. 7. Lawler. Judge
Doremus and Mr.. Ed Hall both were
out of the city, and Mr.. Fairman was
unavoidably detained from the meet
ing.
The directors were enthusiastic
over the work for the coming year,
and after a short talk on prospects
the secretary called the board to-
gether for the meeting. Calling for
nominations for the Office of presi-
dent, Maj. L. L. McInnis was nomi-
mated for reelection, and while he en-
deavored to persuade the directors to
make change this year, the directors
would not consent and he was elected
unanimously Mr.. A. w. Wilkerson
was unanimously reelected vice presi-
dent, and Mr.. L. NJ. Hewitt unanimous
ly reelected secretary. Miss Mary

tary and treasurer.
Upon motion a committee, consist
ing OF the president, vice president
and secretary, was named to make the
appointments of the standing COM
mittees.

for the next four years through the
sale OF lots in the southwestern por-
tion OF the city, on the extension OF
the trolley line, which was referred
to the board OF directors from the an
nual meeting of the club, was then
considered and discussed pro and con,
and the following decision was made:
That a committee consisting Of ]. W.
Bats, chairman; J. D. Martin and
H. H. Newton, canvass the business
section OF the city between now and
10 o'clock Tuesday morning and re-
port the number Of lots subscribed for
on the following plan:

dues to the Commercial Club for the
term of forty-eight months will be
awarded a lot in this plot. In other
words, the lots will cost the purchaser
$240, divided into forty-eight equal
payments of S. each. 1t was the unan-
imous opinion of the directors that
this was a perfectly feasible plan, and
not only a feasible plan but that 1t
was plan that assures the purchaser
a profitable return. 1t was then sug,
gested that those present signify their
willingness to subscribe to the lots

WILL ATTACK
PANAMA LAM

Washington, April 24.--Interest in
the growing popular interest in the
settlement of the Panama Canal tolls
controversy is found in the fact that,
with single exception, every subject
set down for discussion at the seventh
annual meeting of the American So
ciety of International Law, which
opened here today, relates directly to
the problem. The governments policy
is to be attacked by some of the most
noted lawyers in the country. The

CITY COUNCIL MEETING
Arrangements Made to Take Up All
Outstanding Warrants-Water
Extensions and Other Mat
ters Discussed.

The City Council met last night in
adjourned session, the Mayor, all the
Aldermen, the City Marshal, the City
Electrician, the City Secretary and his
deputy being present.
The meeting was called to order by
Mayor w. w. Harris. and the minutes
of the adjourned meetings of the 14th
and 10th instant read and approved.
The following applications for the
office OF Street Commissioner were
laid before the Council: H. G. Dick
son, o. l.. Lusk, Lon DeHart, and ]. w.
Hamilton. The applications were ta-
bled until later meeting.
w. r. Fairman petitioned the Coun-
Gil for a crossing over to his airdome,
saying that he has just completed
cement walks around his property for

along the south side OF the Pico prop
erty before putting in the crossing.
A. A. Smell appeared before the
Council In reference to the bill he has
put in for the labor used in drilling
the well he has just completed for the
city. A dispute has arisen over the
Interpretation OF the contract. In the
contract Mr.. Smell is known as the
party OF the first part, and the city OF
Bryan as the party OF the second part.
The contract states that the party of
the second part shall furnish all labor
to operate his equipment" Law Hen
derson, counsel for the city. pointed
out that the city had no equipment,
and that clearly the obscure phrasing
was the result of an error in the draft
ing OF the contract. 1t was understood
by the Council that the labor vas to
be furnished by Mr.. Smell, while Mr..
Smell thought under the wording OF
the contract that 1t should be paid by
the city. The amount involved in the
dispute is 1888. The Council, acting
upon the advice of the attorney,
passed a motion that Mr.. Smell be paid
s495 for the well, and then should he
desire to bring suit for the additional
1858 he is at liberty to do so.
]. T. Lawler reported to the Council
the result OF his Investigations on the
cost OF a water tower and the direct

he had received, were: 100000 gal
Ions, $1,000; i25,000 gallons, $500;
100000 gallons, $4,000. 1t was stated
that by using the $4,000 which will
be available for the water system from
<the sale of the bonds which are to be
issued, for the purpose of extending
the water mains over the city, the in
surance rate will be greatly reduced,
Mr.. Lawler offered to furnish the city
direct pressure for two years, and put
in a 10-horse power engine as a guar.
antee that no breakdowns would oc.
cur, for the sum of $3.50 per annum.
