Bryan arrived late for the meeting,
reaching the executive offices at noon,
an hour after the session had con-

Count Won Bernstorff called on Lam

None OF the cabinet members would
talk about the note but it was the sole
subject OF incarceration. 1t was under
stood that President Wilson's original
position was sustained with only slight
modification. Whether it will be ca
bled tomorrow depends on the amount
of revision required by the diplomatic
and legal experts. Rumors of differ

when Secretary Bryan failed to arrive
for the opening of the session.
Bryan Worried.
The presidents statement is taken
to mean that he won the agreement
Of all his cabinet to his ideas of what
the note should contain. Several of
the cabinet officials are said to have
agreed with reluctance.

to leave the cabinet room and his smile
was not with him. He wore an anX-

COMPENSATION ACT
PROBLEMS FOUND IN
SUIT Of LIPSCOMb

Workmen's compensation problems
are taking a big part in the trial at
the court house of the suit of the es-
tate of Charles Lipscomb against the
Standard Oil company for $4,000
damages.
Judge Fox said today the case is an
unusual one, bringing in many unex-
pected legal questions. Most of the
principles involved are those taken
up by the workman's compensation
act which was passed by the 1915
legislature, but is not yet effective.
The trial was slightly delayed today
when attorneys for the Lipscomb es-
tate attempted to settle in evidence
questions regarding the ownership of
the electric light which caused the
explosion of the oil tank in which
Lipscomb was killed. After Ray
Shiveley, attorney for the plaintiff,
had cited a number of cases of the
introduction of such evidence, Judge
Fox remained unconvinced and sus-
tanned the objections of the defend.

Field Agent Client for the Stand.
ard Oil company was placed on the
stand today Mr.. Client was Ques-
toned regarding his knowledge of the
! circumstances around the tank before
the explosion. He admitted he gave
the directions for making the repairs
while Lipscomb was in the tank.
In the body of men who will de
eide the case are Senator Walter Nc
Conaha, who participated in the enact
ment of the workmen's compensation
act, George Eggemeyer, Henry Stems
and other Commercial club members
who made study of the new act.

COUNCIL PASSES
ORDINANCES FOR
$4,000 BONDS
City Engineer Charles Ex-
plains Method Used in
Making Estimates of City's
Share of Cost.

! Council, satisfied that the appropria-
vtions made by the city for each per-
manent street improvement authorized
this year were perfectly fair and equit-
able. passed an ordinance last night
authorizing a $4,000 bond issue to
pay the city's share Of various i'm
provements contracted for this year.
City Engineer Charles explained to
council the method pursued by him In
making estimates of the city's contri-
button toward each. permanent i'm
provement. To the uninitiated 1t
would appear that the city in the
South A street improvement was dis
eliminating against the property own
ers on North A street.
In the former improvement the city's
appropriation is half Of the estimated
cost while the city's contribution in
thekorth A street improvement is on
ly one-third Of the cost.
Explains Discrepancy.
But as the engineer explained
after the city has paid for the entire
cost of intersections on both streets
it would have AZ cents per yard to
apply to the relief of each South A
street property owner and 40 cents
per square yard to apply to the relief
of each North A street property own
err. This difference of two cents is
accounted for by the bids, which was
$3.50 for North A and $1.75 for South
A street.
Today Mayor Robbins and Control
Ter McMahan made arrangements to
advertise for bids for the sale Of the
$4,000 bond issue, which will bear
per cent interest, payable semi-an
rually. The Dickinson Trust com
pany AS selected by draw as the
citys ~"ntative in handling the
issue.
Interest will be paid to this bank
for trasfer to bond holders, and the
bonds on maturity will be taken over
by this bank for the city. Bids on the
bonds will be received the latter part
Of the month, as the city has to ad
vertise for bids for three consecutive
weeks. Bids for all or any part Of
the issue will be received. AS the
bonds are exempt from taxation it ii
anticipated they will Offer an attrac
