COLD WAVE DUE
TO MODERATE
THIS EVENING
Thermometer Reaches Low Mark
for Winter Yesterday and Sub
Zero Weather Prevails.

The cold wave which has held the
Mesaba Range in its grip together
with all the northwest for the past
48 hours is due to moderate tonight.
Extremes in temperature were at
tanned yesterday and during last
night when the government ther-
mometer recorded a sub-zero record Of
80 and half degrees below zero, es-
tablishing a record for the present
winter.
At 9 o'clock last evening ordinary
thermometers in exposed positions
about the city recorded temperatures
as low as 45 degrees below zero, but
he official thermometer at the High
school tailed to record more than 32
and half degrees below zero, half
degree above yesterdays minimum
record.
Despite the fact that the cold was
the most intense of the winter Vir-
ginia people felt it little. The air was
still and filled with white frost. Even
light wind would have intensified
the cold.
At TAT this morning there was re-
corded by Weather Observer Quick
stead a sub-zero temperature of 26
and one half degrees. The minimum
for the past 16 hours was 81 degrees
and the maximum 80 and one-half de-
grees. A light wind was blowing
from the southeast. The forecast is
"Cloudy with slight moderation in
temperature continuing throughout
most Of Friday"

RECALL OF FOUR
ALDERMEN BEING
ACl7ATED TODAY
Messrs. McGhee, Harvey, Mathe-
son and Coffey Are Threatened
With Recall Petitions by Those
Who Disagree With Their At
titude on Sewer Construction.
Mayor Boylan Declares He
Knows Nothing of Petition
and Sentiment Over the City
Seems to Be Emphatically
Opposed to the Movement.

Rumors are rife today that petitions
will be circulated for recall election
to recall Aldermen Harvey. McGhee,
Matheeon and Coffey. So far as the
Enterprise was able to learn up to a
late hour this afternoon the circulation
Of the petitions had not begun, but in
authoritive quarters last night, it was

men would be begin circulating them
this morning.
Over the telephone at noon Mayor
Boylan said he had nothing to do with
any recall petitions and had no know
ledge of any except such as came to
him from unemployed workmen who
were threatening to circulate them.
The rumor of the recall for the four
aldermen was general over the city
this morning. Their attitude in op-
posing the storm sewer construction
in the alleys to the north and south
of Chestnut street. was cited as the
ground upon which the petitions would
be brought.
Plan Is Unpopular.
In the business district of the city
this morning where talk of the recall
was indulged in sentiment was against
it almost universally. 1t was freely
predicted that if any recall was started
it would be made to apply to the en-
tire council and the mayor as well.
The hope was generally expressed
that it could be avoided. Interviews
up and down Chestnut street this
morning disclosed the fact that senti-
ment as to the necessity Of the con-
struction of the six-foot sewer is gen.
orally in favor of it. Several of the
most prominent Of local business
houses believe the sewer should be
built. Several Of the biggest property
owners on the street oppose it. AS
between tenants and landlords the
issue is anparently even.

French Embassy Makes Report.

WASHINGTON, April 15.-A full
report has been made to Paris by the
French embassy here regarding the
recent clash between the French
consul general at New Orleans, Paul
Ferrand, and certain members Of
French societies in that city, growing
out Of the consul generals insistence
that the descendants Of French citi-
2cns in this country were liable to mil
itary service in France.
II is understood that the report re-
veals that there has been a misunder-
standing as to the real attitude Of
the consul general. and the belief here
is that no official action in the case
will be required.
II was pointed out today that the
cause of the difficulty was the radical
variance between French and Ameri-
can organic laws regarding citizen
ship. the former denying the right Of
c~Npatriation. and even claiming juris-
diCtion over the children Of French
emigrants born in foreign countries.
