STREET NAMES
MAY BE CHANGED
Council Considers Plans
for Remaining Streets
in KenOsha.
DISCUSS TWO PLANS
May Merely Eliminate Duplica-
tions or May Adopt a Plan
for Remaining of System.

Changing of the names Of the
streets of Kenosha was the question
discussed Monday evening at a meet
ing of the city council, sitting as a
committee of the whole. The discre-
pencies in the present system of nam
ing Of streets in Kenosha and two
plans for changing these names We're
discussed by the council. No definite
action was taken inasmuch as it was
believed that more investigation of the
question should be made and that the
opinion of the people of the city
should be ascertained before definite
action was taken.
The question has been con the fire"
in Kenosha for several years as Of
ficials in this and preceding city adj
ministrations have realized the diff
culties arising from a haphazard sys-
tenn of names which has resulted in
having several streets with very
similar names.
The application of residents of Julia
street to have that street name
changed to Iowa street, revived the
tion of plan for remaining the entire
street system Of Kenosha.
1914 Streets-240 Names.
City Manager Osborn and City En-
gineer Robert Smith presented reports
Of survey showing that there are
actually 104 streets in Kenosha but
that there are 24Q names. This sit
uation arises fro mthe fact that where
uation arises from the fact that where
in another part of the city, a new
name has been adopted for it. This
report also showed that much difficulty
arises from the fact that there are
several streets with similar names
such as Park street, Park avenue, Park
row, and Park court, or a similar set
with Prairie as the word key.
Two plans we're suggested to the
council; one to revise the entire
method of street naming in Kenosha
and adopt new names for all of the
streets; the other to merely eliminate
all duplication and similarity in names.
Might Honor Presidents.
It was suggested that if an entirely
new street naming system is adopted
it might not be bad plan to name all
streets running east and west by num-
bers, such as First, Second and Third
streets and to name the streets run
ming north and south after the presi1
dents Of the United States. The north
and south streets might even keep their
present names if this was so desired.
| 1t was suggested that in naming the
streets after numbers that Grand
avenue or Market street should be
taken as the dividing point and that
streets should be named from this
point as North First street and South
First street, etc. 1t is also possible
to take a theoretical starting point
such as the state line and figure the
name Of the streets from that
The council will welcome any sug-
gestions from citizens regarding the
adoption of new names for the streets
of the city.

Two decoy letters containing money,
proved the turning of the road and
the possible undoing today Of George
D. Nielsen, $50 Charles street, who has
been for six years an employe of the
Kenosha post-office, and at present
mailing clerk.
Just at noon today Nielsen was ar
rested after he tried to slip away
from the federal inspectors who were
questioning. He was taken to the Of
flee of Postmaster German and a
severe grilling followed. Nielsen de-
MED having any intent to steal and
did not explain satisfactorily how he
happened to be caught with the decoy
money his person.
Caught After a Chase.
There was something of sensation
on Park street just after twelve
o'clock, as people we're hurrying in
cars and on foot to their midday meal
at home, when a man was seen leap
ing from the steps at the rear OF the
post office, and beating it across lots.
1t was George Nielsen.
He landed in the affectionate arms
of patrolman, Police officer Maurer,
who was just completing his rounds
for the morning and on his way home
to dinner. Maurer with the assistance
of Motorcycle officer Larsen, passing
in his civilian clothes, took Nielsen in
tow. The police officer took the
chance that the runner was fugitive
and his surmise proved correct.
Been Watched All Morning.
1t was then learned that Nielsen had
been under the critical cool eyes of
the federal inspectors for some days.
Complaints have been received of the
Disappearance of money sent through
the local post-ofice, and the inspectors
dropped down here to take up their
watch. Late Monday night it was
said, decoy letters, one containing
seven dollars and the other three dol
lars, were mailed here. The course
Of these letters was then narrowly
watched.
All morning the inspectors kept tab
on Nielsen while he sorted the out
going mail, and every move of his was
noted. When the letters were found
to be minus their contents in, the bags
outside to which they were assigned,
Nielsen was caught,
1t was said that he had been seen
to open fourteen letters only this
morning, and examine and tighten
the contents by placing the bills in
his own pocket.
Neither the federal inspectors nor
Postmaster German would give out
any information today as to the
amount said to have been missing
from the mails, Nielsen continued to
remain in the postmaster's Office under
fire of questioning this afternoon.
The postal clerk has wife and
family and for this reason as we'll as
the fact that he has been SO long
an employee of the department, the ins
cident is deeply regretted by his
associates.
