A. SIMRELL, 52.V31 Linden St. STREET QUESTION (founcu Says City TO Order Construction Work Beyond Wiaona Street. Whether or not the city will order the sewering of two blocks on West Market street' bavond Winona trot will have to be decided in the courts ir tne Electric Boulevard company insists on refusing to lay a sewer 1n that section of the city. This much was decided on yesterday in council la the controversy between the city and Boulevard company over the right of the city to order the sewering of that street between the two blocks, beyond Winona street, The matter had been referred to City Solicitor Davie and he informed council yesterday that after a week of study he was not" convinced that tne city did not own the land.

The solicitor, in other words, thinks there is a cioud on any title which the Boulevard company may claim to the land and is rather Inclined to the belief that the city may have the real fee simple in the two blocka Will Carry Out Plan. Council talked the matter over and decided that the original plans for sewering the two blocks should be carried on and If the alleged owners of the land desire to dispute the rights of the city to order the sewer work and compel abutting property owners to pay for it, the company will have to go into court to contest its claim. Minor troubles relating to paves, sewers and things of that character served to keep the city councilmen in more or less hot water during the session. The first thing that aroused trouble was the Twenty First ward sewer proposition, Everybody who has been able to find an excuse for so doing has asked council to exempt them from the trunk line so. they, would not have to pay their pro rata share of, the cost of construction.

So many and numerous have been the requests that council yesterday took the "bull by the horns" and laid dawn a sure and fast rule. All properties west of Lincoln avenue between West Gibson and Oram boulevard will be eliminated from the trunk line syestem and all other properties wlH ibe. required to pay their pro rata of the trunk line but will not be asjesfced anything for the laterals. Advertising Worth' It Dr. R.

Wheelock wanted the city to pay him seven dollars, for two broken springs on his auto, due he charges, to defects in the paves. Di rector Hayes suggested that as the city gave him advertising worth twice that amount during the fly swatting campaign that the doctor ought to call it square. In committee council to, report favorable the paving of Costello court from Olive to Pine streets, the court to be paved with vitrified brick. Director Hayes said that something must be done to give the Pittston ave nue people better streets. There were several minor matters which were sent to committee or referred to de partment heads for solution.
