STUDYING PROBLEM
OF LOWER PORTION OF CREEK
Thought and study is now being
given by the board to the lower por-
ton of Shockoc Creek where the qucs-
ton of route viii largely determine
the final cost OF this portion of the
creek. One route TO the river from
Washington Street will be by way of
Fifteenth Street. which appears from
the estimates of the CITY Engineer to
be the cheaper route; the other route
following approximately the old chan
mel OF Shockoe Creek. between Fiji
teenth and Seventeenth Street, enter
ing the river at the Warner Moore
Mills. Before the cost of this route
can be determined with accuracy by
the board 1T will probably be necessary
TO receive proposals upon both of these
routes. and with these figures in hand
the board can with absolute certainty
ascertain and determine the proper
course TO pursue III the adoption OF
the cheaper route.

WHOLE UNDERTAKING MAY
BE COMPLETED by 1920
If the Council provides during the
year 1917 the necessary money to en-
able the Administrative Board to award
contracts for that portion OF the creek
from Seventh and Hospital Streets to
the river, the final completion of the
work OF wallingin and building the
channelway on Shockoe Creek and Ba-
con Quarter Branch. exclusive of its
tributaries. Will be finished before the
year 1920. 1t is also to be hoped that
the Council will provide sufficient
FUNDS Tor general sewer purposes to
enable tho Board TO award contracts
for the completion of the Cannon's
Branch and Griffins Creek sewers in
order to take care of and to relieve
the present conditions on the Northside.
The Administrative Board as whole
has taken Il deep interest in this work.
and 1t is to be hoped that with suffi-
cient funds the desire of the board to
complete this important public work

Of these voted today.
Council Gets Together.
After the primary was ordered
there was strong belief that even
after the voters selected their man
tbo council might still refuse to con-
firm if the selection was not popular
with them. Mayor Mullis pledged
himself to nominate the man selected
in the primary, however, and this will
be done at an early meeting. Since
the ordering of the primary, however,
lho council has got together on a
number of things and the hope is
stronger now that those opposing the
mayor will abide by the decision Of
he voters. Mr.. Avis, who received
ten votes in the primary today is the
man wanted by the opposition. and
in the past they have consistently re-
fused TO vote for any other man.
In sympathy with Mayor.
Mr. Ford is known to be in sympa-
thy with the mayors policies and If
he is nominated it will give practical
ly five votes to each side on questions
where there is a division along fac
tOna lines Some of the aldermen
have changed their support from one
side to the other on many questions.
In fact the only question so far in
which the division has been fixed
was the selection of a man to fill the
vacancy on the council.
Going After the Gamblers.
A new feature has been brought
out in the past few days, or since the
appointment Of Jim Johnson former
deputy sheriff, as night policeman.
One Of his first acts was to file q
complaint against two men here on
a yagrancy charge. He alleged they
had no visible means Of support, but
the police Judge refused to sustain
the charge because Of lack of evil
dence' This case is generally regard
ed as the first step in a fight on
Gambling, and it is believed now that
there will be other charges filed.
Mayor Mullis is quoted as saying that
there is gambling going on here it
must stop and that he will leave moth
ing undone to see that the laws are
enforced.
