There was to have been an appropriation of $10,000 for a temporary bridge at Canal street, but the council men finally come to the conclusion that it would be a waste of money to build a bascue bridge on piles, and so the appropriation was made large enough to pay for concrete abutments. It will be remembered that the coun ty council made an appropriation of $8,000 for the purchase of forty acres of ground Just north of the fair grounds. This was in spite of the fact that the owners of the ground demand ed $9,000. . After the appropriation was made Charles Daugherty. Frank Meeker, exAuditor Bailey and Gostlin, Meyn Co. refused to accept that amount. So it was necessary for the council at this session to. make a new appropriation of $9,000 to make the purchase possible. The appropriations for the purchase of the courthouse property at Ham--mond was held up until the county commissioners can find out what the Elks' property and the Hayes property can be purchased for. The county council omitted to make an appropriaton for the salary of a county sealer. This will mean- that there will be no county sealer until the appropriation is made. The candidates for the offioe have about given up hope that the office will ever be
.created....,. . .w.
MISSION WAS
SUCCESSFUL (Special to The Timks.) East Chicago, Jan. 6. The East Chicago and Indiana Harbor delegation which went to Crown Point Thursday in the Interests of the proposed bridges at Chicago avenue and Canal street. were successful In their mission. The county council granted an appropriation of $75,000 for the Chicago avenue struc ture, together with an appropriation of $1,200 to apply on plans for the same, while $23,000 was appropriated for the Canal street bridge, with $200 additional for the plans. The appropriations were favored by six of the councilman, only one. Councilman Foster, disapproving. He voted no. - Mr. Foster gave as his reason for opposing the project, the high cost of the bridge. He declared that cheaper ones would answer the purpose. He declared that the county would only be "helping out the street car company," which he believed ahould be made to bear a share of the expense of erecting the bridge at Chicago avenue. The original proposition for the Canal street bridge, was based upon a $12,000 cost. The structure this plan provided for was to have had piling at both ends. Another estimate was for the $25,000 structure finally agreed upon.
the extra cost being made necessary tol 1 . construct a concrete caisson one end, ILak county' newest interurban line.
on which to ret the machinery. The men who went to Crown Point to wait upon the council in the Interest of the bridges, were Thoma O'Connell, C. A. Westberg and W. B. Van Home, of the Harbor and Mayor Schlieker, Aba Ottenhelmer, Walter Spencer, A. G. Slocomb. Edward DeBrla of East Chicago Messrs. Overholz and W. A. Smith were also there, representing the Frlck properties.
