The moval avmosphere of Sixteenth stecet, between Capitol avenue and Dodge street, was slightly streaked with blue early in the morning and the ruffled tempers were attributable to the vargaries of a milk wagon. A trolley car, crowded to the steps with passengers, was doing Its best to get its human freight In time to resume the labors of the day when it struck & snag—the wagon—apparently glued to the tracks. For case of locomotion the driver had selected the Applan Way, and when he endeavored to bring his charge off at the sound of the bell the vehicle refused to budge, try as he might to urge the willing steeds, It was not untll the* trolley car officl with poles lent a helping hand that the signal, “all clear ahead,” could be given, but by this time part of the cargo had Jelllloned itself.

WOULD PAY LABORERS FOR CITY EVERY DAY Oty Clerk Butler Has Scheme to Save Street Waorkers from Loan IShurks’ Operatl City ‘Clerk Butler has taken up with Councilman Berka the question of making official arrangements with City Comptrol- Jer Lobeck to issue pay checks to the minor ¢ity employes eyery day, if they want them. Mr. Butlér's idea, with which Councilman Berka Is inclined to agree In a general way, Is that the city can afford to do for the laborers what the money loaners do. Workers on the street force, for instance, are not employed steadily, some being given a few days' work this week and some other next weék. Many of them are in the ’mhn of ‘selling their day's wages to the money loaners every day, or every other to keep them running. They must | have ready cash, as few, If any, of them | have any credit account at stores. For a 32 check they get $1.80. and In order to keep ip touch with the men at work the men who supply the money make a daily § of the time books in the office of thé street commissioner and the city enginser.

FRANKLAND ASKS FOR A NEW HEARING Tom Johnsonm Wants Another Trial on of Statement in a Newse paper. Attorneys for Tom somnson, the colored murderer of Henry Frankland of Chicago, are arguing a motion for a new trial be- fore Judge Sutton fn dlstrict court. One of the principal grounds on which the motion is based is that there appeared in newspapers the statement that Johnson wishes to plead guilty and take a life sent- | ence. This offer was retused by the state, |the case went to trial and Johnson was sentenced to death. During the trial and just after the jufy had been impanelled Johnson's lawyers asked the jury If they had read the article in question and ‘they said they had. But the attorneys did not sk the jurymen if they had been prejudiced thereby, and it may now be to late to raise the point of projudice, Another point which it is attempted to make is that police officers in numbers were in the court room and in the en- closed space before the bench while John- son was on the stand, the implication being that they were there to influence the jury. | It 1s doubtful if this point will have much welght with the court and the:: s & pros- pect that this motion for a new ‘rial will result as such motions usually do.
