Erie was the leader in the rise. of
the speculative rails. With earnings

ket, with aA high as Is per cent
predicted for call money by the mid
die of the month, held back many
speculators who might otherwise
have entered the market on the bull

COUNCIL FIXES
CITY PRECINCTS
New Division Expected to
Aid Manager Forces.

An ordinance providing for 255
precincts averaging 625 voters each,
passed by city council Wednesday
night, is expected to aid the city
manager group in obtaining fair
election in November.
The ordinance previously had
been submitted to election coSmls-
sioners and approved by commis-
sion Of the City Manager League.
Although the original intention
was to get $50 voters in each pre-
cinct. the lower average will relieve
crowded voting condition, said Coun-
Gilman John F. White of the redis-
tricting committee The measure
provides eighteen precincts more
than county commissioners had
provided
Previous division ran from pre-
cincts with as low as 100 voters to
as high as 1900. An attempt was
made by council to cut the down
town precincts with transient popu-
lation as low as possible.
Other ordinances passed were an
authorization for the sale of minor
park board property: an appropria-
ton for 1915 to provide for clerk
in the controllers Office, and an ap-
proval of sale OF buildings and crops
on the airport property.
