BAV|S To ALLOW 0|L|NG
UNDER PRIVATE CONTRACT

A delegation of east end citizens
waited on President Bavis, of the
board Of public works, this morning
and requested permission to have the
streets on which their properties are
located oiled under private contract.
At first Mr.. Bavis refused to consider
such a proposition until after the city
had awarded the contract for nine
teen blocks, the oiling of which had
been petitioned for under the provision
of the state law. Finally, on the sug-
gestion of City Engineer Charles, he
authorized the oiling of streets under
private contract up to the date of hear
ing of petitions which have been filed
with the board, May 10.
President Bavis informed the dele
cation that by permitting streets to be
oiled under private contract before
the letting of the public ontract, which
provides for less than one-third of
the streets, the bids of contractors
might be higher than would be expect
ed otherwise. He also said that the
city this year wanted to have street
oiling done in systematic manner,
and to permit private work to be done

before the public contract work or at
the same time might be confusing.
1t was agreed to permit private con-
tract oiling up to May Is. providing
the work was done in accordance with
the specifications drafted by the city
engineer After May 10 no private
contract work can be done until the
contract for the public work has
been let.
Street oiling under public contract
will start about the middle Of June,
and in the meantime streets damaged
by public service corporations will be
placed in repair Today President Ba-
Wis ordered the Water Work company
to repair streets at 116 different places
and to repair all cross walks on South
A street, from Twenty-third street to
Second street. At the same time he
ordered the Gas company to repair
streets at 1876 different places.
Attorney Ray X. Shiveley told Mr..
Bavis that if the administration was
able to make the public service corpor-
ations repair streets damaged by them
the present city government would go
down as the most successful one in the
history of the city.

DIRECTORS OF PARK
RUSH CEMENT ROAD
Promoters of Morton Lake
Hope to Get Car Extension
Soon.

Richmond's two long sought trac-
ton extensions have been promised
by the T. H. l. and E. Traction COM
pany officers at Indianapolis. Direc-
tors of Morton Lake and Park COM
pany we're asked yesterday to notify
the company as soon as Contractor
Slick has North Nineteenth street
ready for the car line. Beallview park
extension will also be built at the
same time.
From Twelfth street east on North
] street, the concrete and cement
work has already been begun and
there are several squares of cement
curbs laid now. Since the grading has
been completed and the bottom foun-
dation for the paving made ready, the
work will progress rapidly. Part of it
will be ready for traffic to Morton
lake within about sixty days.
The park directors will make an eff
fort to have Slick concentrate on the
street over which the trac-
ton line will be built
and if this is done, there is a
possibility that the line will be ready
for services by the first week in June,
providing the traction company abides
by the promise.
At the meeting last night, directors
voted to have two weeks sale of lots
starting with the opening day which
probably will be the first Saturday in
June. Lots will be sold at a fifteen
per cent discount from list prices and
six per cent discount for cash. The
original lot sale to stock holders was
on practically the same basis.
Since the location for dancing pa
vilion has not been agreed, letting the
concession has been postponed. The
shooting gallery concession will be let
in day or two.
The advertising committee will
hold another meeting in few days
to set the date definitely and officially
and to complete other arrangements
for opening day. The plans of the
boosters trips are in the hands of sub
committees which are arranging the
route, the automobiles, places for
luncheon, advertising features and
other details.

RAIN STOPS GAME

Just as the members of the Earlham
and Franklin baseball mines took the
field yesterday old J. Pluvius decided
to take a hand in the proceedings,
opening up a downpour that threat
ened to wash the diamond away. AS
this was the second time that the
Quakers and Franklinites have at
tempted to stage their game, managers
of both teams kept their men on the
field with hopes of playing the game.
After the rain, however. it was decided
to call the contest, as the diamond re-
sembled a duck pond rather than a
ball field.
