work incidental to such is being con-
tlnued with vigor. This is especially
true in the Ninth ward, where local
contractors arc dumping earth from
various building operations about the
city. Hundreds of loads of earth
have been used to fill in Monroe street
from Twenty-siNth street northwest,
and within short time that street
will be dotted with houses. The
same condition exists at Twenty
seventh and Twenty-eighth and Mar
ket street, where earth from the ex-
cavations of the proposed county and
municipal building is being dumped.
