POPLAR STREET PARKS UP IN AIR
UNTIL THE MEETING OF COUNCIL
fleport to Grass Was Adopted, But
. Alderman Gave Notice of Motion to
Reconsider, and Nothing Can Be
Done Until That Motion Can Be
Disposed of.
Mr. II. T. Adams said that the reason
why cotton was stored on the streets was
becatuo It had to bo moved out when
■old. Insurance In the street waa fur
Greater than in the warehouse. At to
his warehouse, he was on the r.!de of the
street with the street railway track, and
he was therefore compelled to place hjs
cotton temporarily In the park. If the
council overrides the wishes of the people
in grassing the nurkK he would Insist
on having the street railway truck moved
to the center of the nark, otherwise B.
T Adams & Co. would have to move.

matter, and Mayor Miller, In accord
ance with that notice, informed Aider-
man Brunner that ho would not begin
the work of grassing the parks until
•fter the meeting of the coming week
The subject was broached at tho to-
ginning of the meeting. Just nfte- the
reading of the petitions, by shoving
up the order of business so that tho
report of the committee on public prop
erty on the petitions of sundry prop
erty owners on the street asking that
the parks remain as they are. and tin
petition of the Civic Federation asking
that the parks be grassed, could be
read. This was done, the report being
signed only by Aldermen Brunner and!
pnow.
Alderman Adams, the third member
of the committee said that he dissent
ed from the report, because, ho said,
to grass the parks would be a detri
ment to tho business houses on that
street, and that there were not enough
wagon yards in the city to take care
of the country teams. .«
Alderman 'Brunner moved that the
report bb adopted, and the n the argu
ment began. Alderman .Brunner, said
the matter had been thoroughly thrash
ed out at the last meeting.
Alderman Mayor said that Alderman
Brunner’s committee had taken upon
Itself the grasrlng of the pnrks with
out any threshing out. They had
plowed up the park In the egrly
morning. This was an Important mat
ter. Ho hnd talked to farmers, and
they were opposed to It. The Third
street people simply slept over tholr
rights when they allowed that street
to be parked. The farmers would bo

fate as the other.
The vote was then taken on the
tlon to adopt the report of the committee
which recommended that the parks bt
grassed. The ayes nnd nayes were call
ed. and the vote resulted as follows:

Alderman Brunner said he was sat
isfied that the Irrgcr portion of the
city would be pleased to gee the parka
grassed. There was a tlmo when all
the warehouses on the streot were a
quarter of a block In slxe. Now all
are smaller, and fewer of them, and
Alderman Maver’a warehouse had been
reduced to half the slxe within the
past twelve months. He believed there
were plenty of places In the city In
which to house the country teams, and
it was hts belief that the city would
