City Council Votes and Resolutions on Street Projects
The Common Council convened with quorums in place and debated street and public works matters. Topics included damages assessment for Elizabeth Brownwalter and Crozier street grade changes, vacation requests by Iron and Steel for South Seventh, and a fence or lake plan for Red Pond. An opposing stance halted automatic bell mandates for transit, while multiple ordinances for widening, paving, and opening various streets and alleys were discussed and referred to appropriate committees.

Bakers Strike Prolongs Window Glass Workers to Europe Trip
About 200 window glass workers plan to leave for the Paris Exposition next week as summer shutdowns begin. The exodus, largely Americans, aims to visit old homesteads and bring families. The poor market and high stock levels cited by Abel Kim Co and O Leary Bros reflect a weak trade for glass. The Central Trades Council suit against James Campbell and others was postponed pending DA succession.
