20 W. C. Buck, of Minneapolis, consult
ing engineer, is in the city and is gath
ering data and information in regard
to installing a heating plant to be op'
Grated in connection with the munich
pal power and light plant.
The proposition as planned is to lay
system of mains and connections
for steam heating and use the exhaust
from the engines with what additional
live steam necessary to maintain a
given degree OF heat or temperature.
According to the estimate of Mr..
Buck the proposition could be handled
with an investment of not to exceed
$4,000. This amount would be paid
by the earnings of the plant without
any increase in taxes. The plan of
running the mains contemplates the
use of the alleys with the exception of
a few blocks of streets and street
crossings. These can be made mostly
by tunneling, and would not interfere
with traffic or close more than half the
street at the time the work was being
done.
The system would cover the bust.
ness section extending far enough to
take care Of the court house, the pub.
lie schools and library, as we'll as all
the business buildings.
That there could be a great saving
iii heat from the exhaust that is being
wasted at the plan; is self-evident
TO illustrate: A pound of water con.
verified into steam and at pressure of
125 pounds would contain 1892 heat
units. After passing through the
cylinders of the engines this same
steam released or at air pressure
would still contain 1850 heat units,
having lost but one-half of one per-
cent. The loss would be from the con-
densation while going through the
cylinders and there would be further
condensation in the mains, but the
Heat available would be immense and
direct profit tc the plant instead of
being wasted as at present.
Mr.. Buck is going over the daily and
monthly reports of the city plant to
ascertain how much exhaust would be
available and will make detailed re-
port at the next meeting of the coun-
Gil on June 6.
The sentiment of every business
man and interested person interview
ed so far is in favor of the proposition.
Some who have hot air heating plants
say they would replace them with
steam if this service was installed. It
appears to be another case of where a
municipal project rightly handled
would be of great benefit to the people
III service and saving.

Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, Sept. 25.-The ghost
of the Federal league lowered over
the Brooklyn Dodgers today as they
struggled on toward the National
league pennant and worlds series
honors with the Phillies yelping close
upon their heels.
Joe Tinker. leader Of the Chicago
Cubs and former manager Of the
Whales in the Federal circuit is out
to pull the Dodgers from the pinnacle
which they now hold by only gam g
and half, if it is humanity possible.
The Cubs and Dodgers are to stage
a double header this afternoon.
Tinker Will fight every inch of the
way and If the Dodgers are beaten
and the Phillies turn in another vic
tory over the Reds, Pat Moran and
his men will jump into the lead.
Following their engagement with
the Cubs, the Dodgers have three
games to play with the Phillies at
the end of the week. If Tinker ap-
proaches success In his hope of up
setting the Dodgers he will send
them into these games with their lead
cut down to such point that the
final struggle will be one Of the
highest since the historic series be-
tween the Giants and Cbus in 1908.
Tinkers Old Score.
Tinker has an old score against the
Dodgers, dating back to the winter
Of 1912. Tinker managed the Reds
in 1912 and when purchased by Presi-
deaf Ebbets of the Dodgers an argu-
ment over salary followed. Tinker
claims he would never have gone 70
the Federals if Ebbets had paid him
the salary he understood he was to
receive when the trade was made.
But Ebbets stood pat on his refusal
to meet the terms Joe insisted upon.
Tinker then leaoed to the Feds and
the Gilmore circuit Immediately be-
gan to boom.

real start of the Feds along the road
/ which tore the baseball world inside
| out. As a climax Tinker now charges
Ebbets as being responsible for the
! circulation of rumor that he was to
be deposed as manager Of. the Cubs.
AS result it is no secret that the
! feeling stirred UP is bitter. The Cabs
have taken ono game from the Dodg-
ers and have four more to play. It
will be fight to the finish.
This afternoons double header, just
like the twin bill which was pulled
of Saturday, promises to provide
some real excitement.
The Chicago leader had saved his
star hurler. Jim Vaughn. to use
against the Dodgers Saturday and
Waugh won for Tinker. pulling the
Dodgers down a full game In the fight
for the leadership. He still has Jimmy
Lavender and Nick Carter, two stars,
on deck and they probably will be
used today.

American Race Tight.
The last full week OF the American
league season finds the race In that
circuit still undecided today. The
Red Sox have slightly weaker hold
on the leadership because Of their
defeat in Cleveland. while the White
Sox were winning. The Tigers also
won. so they kept pace with the
White Sox and still stand half a game
behind the. second place club. The
White Sox are within two games and
a half of the lead.
Eight games remain on the Red Sox
schedule and to cfnch the pennant
they must win i've, in case the White
Sox win every game Of their remain
ing I'VE.
Today's schedule In the American
league calls for another clash be-
tween Red Sox and Indians in C1eye-

Tigers and Senators and another
