NEW BRIDGE FOR RIVER AT OUTLET (Continued from first .page). ped. Mr. Troppman stated that he only wanted to conduct the auction on a small scale to rid his store of much surplus stock hefore fall, as he had planned to do a great deal of re- modelling and #he extra stock would interfere. Alderman Bailey made a motion to present City Assessor Lloyd with fifty dollars for his work with the Board of Equalization which he was not required to do, but which he cheerfully assisted with, All the al- derman proved in favor of the idea but as the Council could not legally raise Mr. Lloyd’s salary that amount the City Attorney suggested that he be asked to present the City with a bill for that amount. New Bridge at Outlet W. A. Gould adressed the Council and stated that he had experienced a small amount of trouble over a bridge deal near Bemidji and that as a result Commissioner Rako had been left $2000, which was to be spent this year for improvements. The money was the remainder of an appropria- tion made by the state and Mr. Rako was in favor of giving it over to building a bridge across the outlet, if the City would raise a similar amount. If the City did not wish to take advantage of the proposition the Commissioner had planned to divide the amount with the other members of the board who could use the money in their districts. The aldermen did not appear to be willing to let an opportunity of this kind pass and arranged to raise the amount in the near future. This improvement will mean much to the city as many hun- dreds of dollars have been spent every year for repairs on the bridge which is in poor condition. The new bridge will cost in the vicinity of $5000. Frank Lane asked for a renewal of his liquor license which was granted The same desire was asked by the Proprietors of the old McKinnon saloon now owned by Mr. Anderson. The question was voted down upon an unfavorable report of the investi- gation committee. The Municipal .court report was presented and was accepted. Bonds of Louds Eckstrum and Herb Doran. were also accepted. Bids were opened for storm sewers on Beltrami avenue the amount of each being much above the Engin- eers estimate. Louis Eckstrum was a- warded the contract. Some discussion was made as to the city doing its own work but the matter was dropped before anything materially developed A motion was made to have an arc light light placed on the corner of Seventh street and Minnesota avenue and the matter was turned over to the light committee. A cement side walk was also order- ed built on the Lake shore between the Roberts property and the Rustic bridge. As there was no other busi- ness of importance to be transacted the Meeting adjourned. BIG RAIL STRIKE MAY BE AVERTED Conference At Washington Is Hope- full Of Success—Would Amend Erdman Act NEWLAND ° MEASURE PENDING Both The Railroads And Their Employes Have Agreed To Ac- eept Arbitration of Congress ‘Washington, July 15.—Labor lead- ers and railroad heads looked toward ‘Washington, hopeful of a favorable outcome of the strike conference with President Wilson. The roads having refused to arbitrate under the Erdman act In its present form and the em- ployes having refused to modify their demands, apparently the only compro- mise possible lay in alteration of the law by increasing the number of arbi- trators from three to six, thus remoy- ing the railroads’ chief objection to the act. With a strike authorized by an over- whelming majority and ratified by general committees of both unions Presidents W. G. Lee and A. B. Gar- retson of the trainmen and conduc- tors respectively, were authorized to defer calling a walkout pending the outcome of the Washington confer- ence. President Wilson, Secretary Wilson, Chairman Newlands of the senate in- terstate commerce committee, Clayton of the house judiciary committee and Republican Leader Mann represented the government; President Samuel Rea of the Pennsylvania, Daniel Wil- lard of the Baltimore and Ohio, George W. Stevens of the Chesapeake and Ohio, W. C. Brown of the New York Central lines and Frank Trumbull, chairman ot the board of the Chesa- Peake and Ohio, represented the rail- Toads. Presidents Garretson and Lee represented the employes. Concerns Two Measures, The conference between the railroad men and President Wilson concerns chiefly two bills pending in congress for amendment of the Erdman act, pro- viding means for arbitration of wage disputes. It is understood that both the brotherhoods and the railroads ‘are Jsatisfled with the Newlapds bill, al ready passed in the senate, but that the Clayton bill is not as acceptable. Acceptance by the house of the New- lands bill, which also has been ap- proved by the Civic Federation, un- doubtedly would remove the possibil- ity of a strike. 6 The unions are willing to meet the railways in an effort to settle all dif- ferences by means of arbitration un- der the Newlands amendments to the Erdman act, according to the an- nouncement of A. B. Garretson and ‘W. G. Lee, heads of the raflway train- men. The announcement of the rail- way managers, they sald, was a com- plete reversal of their previous declar- atlon not to arbitrate. The attitude of the Erle, which with: drew last weeR from the conference of managers with the statement that it would not agree to wage increases under any circumstances, remains un- changed.
