the park when il is made
I The committee reported that it

ening of Lockwood street.
r. *. Atwood, agent for the Lock-
wood. was called on but said he had
nothing to add to what the mayor had
said.
Ex-Mayor Horace Purinton said
/ that he believed the change was Verv
desirable and that it would eliminate
the danger at the corner of hte
bridge, which he considered was ex-
Z tremelv dangerous, especially when
the mill operatives were coming ard
going from the mill. Mr.. Purinton
( said that he believed the expense
would not he very great as the Proc

and the Joseph lot at $500. He point

raised the value of adjoining proper
\ ~ and said that the owners Of the
Bay View were willing TO share in
+ the increase of taxes because Of the
Improvement.
Mr.. Purinton expressed himself
heartily IN favor OF the change and
said he believed II could he done
/ for not moro than $4,000
pr. J. F. Hill said that the danger

$4,000 and later cost $1,000 Also to the
piece Of property occupied by The

L. S. DOING ALL POSSIBLE
TO FURNISH INFORMATION
TO SOLDIERS RELATIVES

Washington. May 17.-What is be-
ing done toward furnishing all pos
sible information to relatives of AM
orleans taken prisoner by the Ger
mans is summarized in a statement
tonight by the prisoners of war sec
ton Of the adjutant generals Office.
Although considerably more than
1000 American soldiers have been re-
ported by Gen. Pershing as missing.
the statement says only about 100
have been located in prison camps.
Efforts to locate 1873 Americans
claimed by the German war office to
have been captured in recent en-
gagement SO far have proved futile.
