the proposed municipal plant, as sub
mitted by Albert Buys, the engineer
who was retained to make an inves-
tigation and report to the directors.

PASS RESOLUTION To GET PARK

Kelly Joins with Democratic
Forces and Park Resolution is
Carried by 5 to z Vote-Hot
Shots at Session Last Night.

Determined that the park project
should be put through at this time
and that a public park was needed
in the northern section, the five
Democratic members of the Board of
Aldermen, passed a resolution to
purchase the former Merritt land

last night. All of the Democratic
members voted to adopt the resolu-
ton and the two Republican men,
bers voted against 1t. Chairman
Chris Jorgensen, reported progress
for the park investigating commit
tee concerning consideration of wa
ter front property for park purposes
There was some discussion upon
the parks and several petitions were
received One of these was a mon
ster bulk Of paper approving the ac-
tion of the council in authorizing the
purchase of the Merritt land. 1t
was signed by 71S persons. Dur
ing the discussion Alderman John j.
Clark scored Alderman William G.
Wilson for opposing the purchase of
the Merritt tract upon the ground
that he did not want to have the
city purchase the Johnson water
front property.
Mayor Garretson opposed the res
olution for financial reasons. he set
forth In a letter ACCOMMODATING his
veto. He maintained that the bond
ed indebtedness of the city was now
SO great that care should be exer-
cised in stepping In the future.
Copies of his letter of explanation

STAMINA WON
 FOR WILLARD
JOHNSON LED IN THE BEGIN ING BUT FELL
 AWAY.

HAVANA, April 6.-The latest ac- counts of the great fight here yester- day for the worlds championship agree that the youth and stamina of Willard won the day for him. In the first twenty rounds Johnson led the fighting and gave Willard a bad beat ing but it seemed not to have the slightest effect on the big white who, as stated before seemed to hay, the edge on his man even in the first half. Jess was nervous at first and swung wildly several times but in the nine teenth and twentieth rounds he settled down and seemed to gain confidence. As Willard found himself, Johnson weakened rerceptibly and in the twenty-frst the white man started the aggressive which he maintained in the twenty-second. For time after that both men stalled but a little later Willard's awful blows began to take effect. He rallied savagely in the twenty-ffth and went after his man. like a wild beast. In that round he drove in terrific blows on the blacks face and body. At the start of the twenty-sixth Johnson was nearly gone. AS he rose from his corner Willard met him two thirds of the way across the ring and smashed his left into his face while he sent an aw- full right to the body. Johnson stag gered into the ropes and then they cinched. In that clinch or just as it was breaking, Willard administered his final punches. He sent his left to the body and followed with the right to the face. Johnson went down and out.
 Johnson came to all right after his beating and appears to be a very mis- erable man. He has decided to go to Martinique to raise chickens and pigs and settle down to a simple life.
 Willard is arranging to go on long theatrical tour and has been offered an immense sum for his appearance.

WHAT U. $. SAYS ABOUT
 THE BRITISH BLOCKADE.
This Country Expects Preparation For Every Act Against Inter-
 national Law.

WASHINGTON. April 6.-The text of the note of protest sent by this government to the British govern ment relating to the declaration of the British blockade against Germany was made known last evening. It ad- mits the right of Britain to lay an em- bargo on German trade. This govern ment, however, expects that repara- tion must be made for every act which is regarded by international law as a violation of neutral rights. The pro- test is not at all as sensational as it had been expected to be. The request of the British government to keep the matter secret until April had led to the belief that the note contained more serious expressions.
