COULD USE EARTH
FROM EXCAVATIONS
FOR RIVER FRONT
Many Puzzled as to Action in
Hauling Away Tons Of Good
Material

The average citizen cannot under
stand why thousands of tons of filling
material which is needed to complete
the park treatment of the river front
Is being deposited in quarry holes and
waste places along Cameron and Pax
ton streets. Inquiry of the proper au-
thorlties brings out the statement that
the cost of hauling this material now
being eXcavated in Mulberry street
at Front and Second streets, is re-
garded as too heavy to justify the ex-
penditure, much as the dirt is needed
now and will be needed hereafter.
This matter was under considerati tion
by the City Council, but the proposals
1or hauling were regarded as too high
and nothing more was done. Already
1000 loads have been deposited in the
vicinity of Cameron and Paxton streets
and the contractors stated to-day that
there would be at least 10000 more
loads before the excavation shall have
been completed.
Where "F1lI" is Needed
Those who have made any study of
the conditions along the river front
between Iron alley, where the river
wall begins, and at several stretches
between that point and Seneca street
where the wall will end. realize that
all of the filling material now being
wasted on the score of economy is
needed at the present time in the
proper grading of the slope to the de-
pressed park along the wall. Even IL
the cost now is more than might have
been the case year or two ago, owing
