Tho inability to take action cu tl,ss two important matters ls drought auout by the faet that the subdivision ut the grand list into districts has Eot b'eu completed and VI. res Ir. UGtH about Monday Of u.At Ec,S.

 l. IS also believed that a report Will ha made on the traffic situation at poolIttle's crossing, where q tentative plan proposed by the state highway department is now being given a trial. Much unfaNorahio comment has been heard on the ar ranEement, not only rom nearby residents but also motorists who have occasion 10 pass over the railroad tracks at this point, Under the present plan. one crossing Is eliminated hut the one now in use is so narrow that the situation Is much nor" dangerous than when the wider crossing existed. IL is known that city officials favor the elimination Of the grade crossing entirely and l' is very probable that a vote will be taken tonight 10 inn part that knowledge 10 the public utilities commission Clty and stat" officials were looking over the sit nation yesterday but no statement Was made in regard to their inten- tloDs.
 The matter ot approprla'inE the sum or Ss5 year 10 each policeman for a clothing allowance is another matter which will probably be brought before tho council. the board of police commissioners al their meeting last Thursday evening rec  ent time all officers assume the en- tire cost Of their clothing. should the council vote in favor of the clothing allowance. all uniforms will hc placed on q standard basis. the style to be selected by Chief Ernest T.
