JUNE 12. 191 PEACE IS NEAR IN CANNON DISPUTE There is every indication that the fabled bird, the dove of peace, is hov ering the warring camps of the park board and the adjutant general's office, rumors of clashes to the contrary not yvithsta tiding. The adjutant general himself is au thority for the statement that the brief armistice, agreed upon in the debate over the Fort Walker cannon, is likely to develop into a permanent truce. He said today that he would go over Park Director Carey's head and press the state's claim to the big guns before Mayor Winn. He thought that the mayor would recognize the state's un disputed title and the cannon would be forthcoming. It is to be placed at the Hunter street entrance to the state capitol Director Carey, although admitting that negotiations were pending to set tle the row by arbitration, is letting none of the Grant park grass grow under his feet. He is said to lie mo bilizing the park department employees armed with picks and shovels to give battle to the soldier boys if General Obear resorts to the militia. The adjutant general's idea is to mount the guns on the grajiite abut ments at the Hunter street entrance to the capitol exactly in the manner two such brass six-pounders are mounted on the steps of the assembly hall at the United States naval acad emy.
