BARNESDALE SEWER
 RIGHTS COMPLETED
City Department and Prop erty Owners Arrive at
 Agreements

An agreement has been made with A. w. Williams for sewer rights of way through his Barnesdale prop, crty, removing the only obstacle which has stood in the way of the trunk line sewerage plan for this district.
 After the finance committee of the, common council gives it's approval this afternoon, Mir. Williams will be paid $1,000 for the rights which he will give, and the owners of the Sandberg tract will receive S4,000, a; compromise amount agreed upon after the city had offered S3,000 and the Sandbergs had held out for $6,-. GOO for several months.
 Layouts for the sewerage plan were prepared more than q year ago and were approved by the board of public works and the common coun-, cil. Delay was encountered when: the Sandberg and Williams tracts were reached, and the council and board of compensation ard assess ment have been working cooper, atively in an effort to arrive at an agreement.
 In anticipation of settlement Of the difficulty, work has been started at either side of the Williams plot, and will now be carried across that land.

REPORTERS JAILED
 IN CONTEMPT CASE
Washington Newspapers men Refuse to Violate
 Ethics Code

Washington, Oct. 30 P}-Three reporters for The Washington Times. afternoon newspaper, were today sentenced to 45 days each in jail by Judge Peyton Gordon in the District of Columbia supreme court for re- fusing to reveal to the grand jury the names and addresses of persons from whom they claimed to have purchased liquor.
 In passing sentence for contempt of court, Judge Gordon told the trio, German M. Hendricks, @5; Linton Burkctt 30, and Jack F. Nevin, Jr., that the questions asked them by the grand jury were entirely proper. The law, he said, did not recognize the ethics of the newspaper pro- fession as sufficient grounds for plea for immunity.
 The men told the court they had bought liquor in 49 speakcasies in Washington. They explained they had gained admittance through friends and that they had promised not to reveal the names of the boot lcGgers, asserting their only purpose in going to the speakeasies was to develop new stories relating to crime conditions in Washington.

 Among the changes which will be made when the addition to the Franklin school is completed is the transfer of the kindergarten pupils from the main building to an en- larged room in the addition. The Kindergarten room will be used as class room.
 George Levitt of the school board said today that the kinder Gartcn room at the Franklin school IS too small but the one at the Lin coin school is too large.
