OBJECTIONS MADE TO
PROPOSED PEVING
Richard Evans Files Objection With
Council to Proposed Improve
ment Of Second Street.

The city council today received
from Richard Evans . protest to the
contemplated paving on Second street,
which follows:
Gentlemen: As city emp1oye l
have feeling Of hesitancy in making
Ia protest to the contemplated paving
on Second street. But Is q citizen
and tax payer, earnestly ask that
said improvement be not made.
First: Because the one-half OF the
stree: adjoining Buck-Reiner Co. is
now without chuck hole or depres-
sion of any kind. It is as perfect on
that side as any macadam street in
the city.
Second: Because there 10 no water
course across Second and Johnson to
carry surface water OF. Thereby the
water courses diagonal towards the
alley to the east side Of the alley at
Buck Reiners. which has caused a rut
to be cut in the street.
Third: Because said street can be
for = very little outlay, put In first
class condition that will last for years.
Fourth: Because am obliged to
face conditions that for q few years
to come will greatly place me In
strenuous straights, beg chat you will
reconsider doing the work.
Respectfully yours,
RICHARD EVANS,
129 South Second street.

COURT RULING
AGAINST FEDS
Judge FoeII Makes Permanent In
junction Restraining johnson
From Playing With
Federals.
DECISION Is IMPORTANT
Wholesale Raids BY Feds Were Plan,
ned Had the Decision
Gone In Their
Favor.
DECISION Is IMPORTANT

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service.]
CHICAGO, ILL.,, June 3.-Judge Foell
in the superior court today made
permanent an injunction preventing
Pitcher George (Chick) Johnson
from playing with the Kansas City
team OF the Federal league. The in
junction was granted on the petition
Of the Cincinnati league team, after
johnson had jumped his contract with
the Reds and signed with the Kansas
City Federals. The Injunction only
prevents johnson from playing with
the Federals within the state OF ILL
nois. where the superior court has
Jurisdiction.
Justice Foell's decision was on the
motion of the Federal league to dis
solve the temporary Injunction under
which Johnson was restrained from
playing with Kansas City and the re-
lection Of the motion. made the injunc-
ton permanent
Lacks MutualIty But Valid.
Judge Foell held that the contract
between johnson and tho Reds was
one-sided and lackd mutually but de-
cided that under the laws of Illinois
this fact did not void the contract.
Under this point he cited many deci-
sions saying actors, singers and 9th
ers were held under contracts that
were similarly one-sided, but sustain
ed by law. The Feds had attacked
Johnson's contract with the Cincin-
natl club because It contained the
ten day clause, and 1t was their on
tention that this clause invalidated
the contract because the club derived
all the benefits from its enforcement
and the player none.
Regarding this contention Judge
Foel said: ut seems incredible that
the players should submit for SO
many years to so unreasonable .
hardship as these contracts impose
but the fact that this hardship exists
does not invalidate the contract

Refuses to Comment.

DURANGO, Mexico, June 3.-Gen-
eral venustiano Carranza today refus-
ed to comment upon the proposal OF
the Niagara Falls mediators to permit
the mediation conference to discuss

statement that Huerta will eliminate
himself as soon as Mexico is pacified
and the government of the country
placed under control of joint COM
mission.
