There is small chance that the gas

One of them was wounded Friday

Mr.. Bowers was detained at his

In a few minutes one of the thieves

1t is known that great mass OF
new evidence Is being piled up by the
defense, preparatory to the writing OF
the motion for a new trial. Frank in
his cell at the Tower is working on
his own case, and his wife is help
ing him, while his lawyers are spar

BUDGET 7
Aldermen viii Ask Two Slight
Amendments, Which They Are
Sure Will Be Granted.

An end of the Ions budget fight was
seen Saturday, when Alderman James
R. Nutting, one of the four who has
held the Council deadlocked for al
most two months, declared that he
was confident the Aldermen would
accept the proposition of the Finance
Committee.
Alderman owens and myself will
meet Chairman Humphrey, of the FL
nance Committee. for another con-
ference to-day" said Alderman Nut
ting. We are going to ask for two
minor amendments. which we think

almost say that a compromise has
been reached. Ter the new attitude
of the Finance Committee OF willing
ness to concede 10 some of our de-
mands means iust that"
The additional amendments pro-
posed are mainsprings of some of
the real politics in the situation.
$500 Wanted for West End.
If s3,5OO is not secured for the paw
ing of Lucille avenue, in West END,
Councilman S. L. Dallas, junior Coun-
Gilman from the Seventh Ward and
one of the strongest supporters of
the insurgents, will be left holding
an empty bag.
In Campaigning, Councilman Dallas
declared that he would pave Lucille
avenue so smooth that traffic would
move over it as noiseless as a silent
six When the Finance Committee
failed to appropriate money for this
street or any other in the Seventh
Ward, Councilman Dallas arose in
arms and led in the organization of
the insurgent movement.
The Aldermen don't want to sacri-
flee any of their supporters in maxi
ing a compromise, and they will in
sist that $500 be provided for Lucille
avenue
Fire House Fight Center.
The other point at issue is whether
Alderman James w. Maddox or his
colleague, Councilman Jesse B. Lee,
shall have credit for a new fire en-
gine house FOR the Fifth Ward.
The old matter of Councilman Lee
being nominated by a majority of
three votes has been brought into
this controversy. Friends of Alder
man Maddox claim that he delivered
those three votes, but when Mayor
Woodward named Councilman Lee to
the Finance Committee the Council
man pursued a financial policy of his
own, without consulting the Alder
man. He secured 50, 600 to begin a
boulevard over the Proctor Creek
sewer, and $1,000 for widening the
approaches to the Bellwood avenue
viaduct
When Alderman Maddox decided
that a fire station was more needed
tina these improvements, he joined
the insurgents. How Loyalty he has
stood by them is indicated by story
being circulated of how he lost the
job of County superintendent of Con-
struction when he was in position to
cast the deciding vote for the budget.
"No" Settles Question.
It is said that he was informed that
If he would vote for the budget he
would get the support of Mayor
Woodward for County Superintend-
ent, and that that would have meant
his election. But Alderman Maddox
said. No"
The Finance Committee and Coun-
Gilman Lee have come 10 the conclu-
sion that a fire station is the most

Ward

en- the right of selecting their
mates 10 to be broken down
Men will soon see how much
to their advantage il is to marry
women who have had an equal
privilege with themselves Of
showing their preference.
Wonan's inherent intuition
will spare her the chaerin of being
refused. She won't propose un-
til she knows what the answer
will be.
It is the only way man can be
sure a proposal shows real pref
erence, and not merely oompro-
mise on the part of the women
because they (the women) have
no other choice.
So says Miss Maria Thomp

Chicago that more women than
men are proposing in that city.

way Chicago accounts for wonderful

up by John H. Mack. Of the Marriage
License Bureau Of Chicago. and the
Rev NJ. F. Boynton, OF the Lexington
Episcopal Church. The latter says
he has evidence that many women
are proposing, especially widows; and
that women generally will propose
when people come to believe that 1t
is woman's right to choose and to
make known her choice.
