That the question of who Is to pay
for the 81, 500. 900 Belt, Railroad

At close Of conference Of city and

agreement was reached, ana the
meeting will be continued today.
Confereees were William Bosom,

city engineer; II. G.. Wray, track
elevation engineer; p. j. Landers,
superintendent, and Joseph j. Dan
iels, attorney for the indianapolis
Union Railway Company,
Members Opinions
Charles Coffin ex-presldent OF the
board Indicated he would be salts
fled If the indianapolis Union Rail-
way Company would agree to pay
30 per cent of the expense, while
William Fl. Freeman and DR.. M. j.,
Spencer. other board members, said
they favored yielding to demands Of
the railroad company to expedite
track elevation,
ogden said today he would con
tinue to oppose the Views Of the
Belt officials on the ground that 1t
would not only force the tax payers
to finance the 81, 500, 900 bridge, but
would lead to demands from the Big
Four and Pennsylvania railroad com-
panies that similar arrangements be
carried out in constructing other
bridges.
