FIGHTS FOR FUNDS
Lambert Ready to Sue IL Commission
Tries to Divert Money.

Commissioner Ray Lambert put the
city commission on notice Monday that
if an attempt is made to divert money
from the river improvement fund to
the bridge fund in order to pay for a
wing wall at the Mill bridge, he will
resort to court action. This notice was
given after the park commissioner had
read a letter from w. L. Simpson, en-
gineer. expressing the opinion that the
cost of bridge ordinarily includes the
abutments. wing walls and approaches.
The retaining wall" which has been
built to hold the earth underneath the
approach to the bridge and which the
street commissioner and city engineer
are contending is river WALL" the
park commissioner insists is nothing
more than a wing wall and a part
of the bridge. The city engineer vir-
tually admitted this when questioned
closely by the park commissioner Mon
day.
The commission meeting Monday af-
ternoon was brief and devoted to rou-
tine. the only feature being that it
began promptly at 4 o'clock. Mayor
Black was absent. Appropriations of
$4,000 for merchants bills and $3.50
to pay interest coupons were voted by
the commissioners.
