ABOUT
LAURIE STREET
Condition of Street Makes it
Impossible for AmbuIanceS
to Get to Rear of Hospital

Owing to the condition of Laurie
street, which is to be paved shortly,
1t is, and has been for some time,
impossible for ambulances carrying
sick and injured persons to the local
city hospital to take the ear IN
trance to the hospital and conse-
quently all patients must be admitted
by way OF the front door. This ne
cessitates the carrying of the patient,
generally on stretcher, up several
flights of stairs which would not be
necessary were it possible for tho
ambulance to approach the building
from the rear.
Laurie street has been dug up, pre-
paratory for paving, and the holes
and ruts are such that an ambulance
cannot go through it. This matter
has been brought before Mayor Frank
Dorsey by Chauncey c. Baldwin, one
of the hospital governors, and the
mayor in turn has taken it up with
Alderman Christian Andersen, chair
man of the street committee. The re-
quest has been made that ashes be
dumped in the street to a width
large enough to make passage of an
ambulance possible. Alderman An
.dersen has been notified by the on
tractor however that II ashes were
placed there they would have to be
removed before they could go ahead
with the paving.
The contractor has told the chair
man of the street committee that
they are about ready to go ahead
with the paving of Laurie street. In
the meantime some temporary way
of fixing the road to allow the am
bulance to so to and fro is asked for
by the governors of the local hos
pital who point out that the present
method of carrying patients up the
front stairs is dangerous to the
health of those being moved as we'll
as troublesome.

blow themselves insanely. their
orgies do not halt. although
we've told them plainly to put
their dimes in salt. We've ar
gued and implored them. we who
are up to snuff ; for long, long
hours we've bored them with
wise Ben Franklin stuff; and
still they blow their plumber for
gilt and gingerbreads. and bid
us go to thunder and likewise
soak our heads And we who
talk so sanely. and weep the loud
boo-hoo. hand out our wisdom
vainiy. because we're spenders,
too. W>'re strong on admoni-
ton, on pl~cepts high and fine;
our neighbors' sad condition
brings from our eyes the brine:
we'd like to see them dropping
their coin in savings banks, and
not keep Hades popping with
wanton, wasteful pranks. And
then we buy some rubies, or cars
not made OF tin. as wild as other
boobies who blow their money
in. Among the shops we wan
der. to see what is for sale: for

useful. wholesome kale. And

Agreement Between C0ntending
Factions Returns Ebert to
Head of Government.
COMPROMISE IS MADE
Strikes Called BY Ebert Bring Counter
RevoIutionists To Time Quickly
New Government Received
But Little Support.

Berlin.--The counter revolution in
end of the road. There is strong
probability that shortly one govern
ment will be in control and that Presi-
dent Ebert will come back to Berlin
with his ministers.
A basis of agreement between the
government set up by DR.. Wolfgang
Kapp as chancellor and the govern
ment of President Ebert is enunciated
in a declaration issued by the present
Berlin government Announcement is
made that negotiations with a settle
ment in view have been opened be-
tween the two governments at the in
stance of President Ebert and his as
sistants. There is, however, no direct
confirmation of this from Ebert, who
is understood to be at Stuttgart.
Briefly Chancellor Kapp is agree
able to the continuance of the present
imperial president''-wh is. Friedrich
Ebert; he renOunces the formation of
a new minister and places the direc-
ton of affairs in the hands of the I'M
dersecretaries of state.
The agreement as set forth by Chan
cellor Kapp provides for a cabinet,
which shall include professional min
isters," or experts; elections within
two months for members of the reich
stag and the Prussian national assem-
bly,, and subsequently, an election for
81 Inv, hn
until which time Ebert shall hold the
reins of power.
Strikes Cause of Compromise.
One significant clause in the pro
nOuncementS says:
THE new and old governments shall
issue a joint declaration that under
present conditions a general strike is
a crime against the German people
Herein lies the explanation of the
proposed settlement.
A number of persons were killed and
several wounded in clashes between
soldiers and crowds at various places
in the outer suburbs Of Berlin. The
soldiers used rifles and machine guns.
have erected barbed wire entangle
ments at all the street corners, to pro-
tect the government buildings and
barracks from possible surprise at
tacks. No newspapers appeared, ex-
cept some special sheets of the LOkal
AnZeiger, which, in accordance with a
government decree, contains only
news pleasing to the government
The public is extremely skeptical of
the reports published in this form.
One man remarked, they are throw.
ing bait at u.s." as he read the promise
of the government to obtain a food
supply.
Another remarked 1--WE are not SO
stupid as TO believe that quarters Of
Germany support the new govern
ment."
