City water study funds and paving drive early 20th century
Mayor and local businessmen urged officials to improve the water supply to attract firms. Mr. Baker funded a watershed study and later financed paving around 1914, with street work continuing from earlier brick crossings to stone paving. Fences at property lines caused mud crossings, prompting an ordinance. Minutes from 1787 to 1916 are being reviewed for a published summary.

Yeltsin crisis deepens as court weighs fate of presidency
About 5,000 people split over reform as supporters back President Yeltsin and hard liners oppose him. Roughly 200 demonstrators protested in rain before Moscow’s parliament while other streets stayed quiet. Kostikov accused foes of heightening tensions and the Constitutional Court began an informal review, warning the address violated the constitution. If the court rules against Yeltsin, Congress could remove him. Kostikov criticized the court chair for partiality as Yeltsin plans a referendum and decrees on emergency rule. The army remained loyal and away from the political clash.
