OPPOSITE THE MONUMENT DEAL FOR PARK LAND Commissioners Once More Resume Negotiations for Purchase of Alling Property at Foot of Glen Street. Negotiations are once more being resumed by the local park commis- sioners for the purchase of the Judge Willard I. Alling property at the foot of Glen street, it became known today. There was a story current this morn- ing that the deal was closed yester- day and the price pail was $475 an | acre, but this was not verified by any | local official Corporation Counsel James E. Cooper said this afternoon that he was not aware of the trans- | action being closed, but admitted that the deal was pending. The property is a wooded land and comprises ap- proximately forty acres The land in question has been de- sired by the park commissioners for two years. At that time the commis- | sion purchased the tract in the northern end of the city from E. O. Kilbourne and it was planned o ob- tain the Alling property in the south- ern end for a public park. It was believed that a prohibitive price was set on the land and consequently the deal was never closed. From present indications it is thought that the property will be acquired by the com- missioners in the very near future.
