FAIL TO
AGREE ON
CARLINE

Negotiations by the city council
with Manager Bean of the T. Il.
& p. company for operation OF the
city's tideflats ear line by the
street railway company came to a
half Wednesday morning when
Mayor Fawestt and Bean became
deadloeked over transfer arrange
ments between the two systems.
Bean made a concession from
former demands of his company,
by offering to transfer passengers
between the city and 7. II. & =.
cars on a basis of Ia cents to
the company and 1 "a cents to
the city on every transfer. He
had formerly refused to grant
more than one-to-four cent offer.
While other members of the
council were willing to accept
Beans offer, particularly after
Commissioner Gronen produced
figures showing that the city line
could operate at u profit on such
a rate, Mayor Fawcetts demanded
a split of two and three cents on
every transfer.
After an hours debate the coun-
Gil suddenly adjourned until
Thursday. Bean was requested
to apear once more before the
council and work out a solution Of
the deadlocked question.
The debate caused several tits
between Mayor Fawcett and Com
missioner Gronen, who announced
boldly that he was ready to ae-
cept Beans offer.
Were not in a position to die
tate to the street car company"
said Gronen. f"The success of our
line depends on whether we get
transfer agreement. Since Bean
has made this concession, l be-
lieve We should accept"
"My heavens, why don't you
stand by me and the people?" de-
Fawcett. "I've been in
business long enough to know that
we can't run the line on Beans
basis and make money"
"You don't mean to say you
know the street railway business,
TODD do you. mayor?" interiected
Bean.
"Yes, l know enough about it
to know what the city needs
Bean is willing to operate the
city's line at actual cost for a tenn
porary period, during which time
the city and company can deter
mine what permant arrangement
be made.
The new line begins operation
Monday.

AUDIT COSTS
CITY $6,5Sl

Expert auditing of the city's
books during 1917 by state exam

Commissioner Atkins Wednesday.
OF this sum, $3,647.15 has been
for auditing general accounts, and
$2,934.75 for checking the light

German-Americans to fight for

II speak as one who has seen
the spirit of the Prussian govern

having at its disposal and using
to the full capacity every agency

Speaking of the possibility of

God grant tina, the German

outcast."

for cause as high as any for
which ever people took up arms,
does not feel a solemn urge to
rival and Guido his natiye-born

It provides that every public
