Determination to . reroute street
' cars in the congested area so that
they will run only one way on a
street, with no left-hand turns In the
shopping district, was shown yester
day by the members of the council's
special committee on traffic They
declared that this was the first step
towards solving the traffic problem
i City Commissioner Barbur. chair
man of the committee, was the author
of the scheme. He declared that if
the traction company would agree to
the change the rest would be simple.
City Attorney Grant was requested
to find out whetner the city charter
empowered the city council to force
the reconstruction of tracks a
loons as was contemplated.
Attorney Grant stated that he had
not studied the charter to determine
this question, but did know that the
franchises eranted to the street ran
way company called for two tracks
on each street. He declared that it
was Dossible that the charter made
some provision whereby the council
could force the use of but one tracK.
The committee decided that the next
subject which can be solved immedi
ately is the designation of a stage-line
terminal. The committee voted to
view suggested sites tomorrow and
then formulate recommendations to
the city council on this subject.
Commissioner Barbur said he fa
vored establishment of two such ter
minals, one to be used by the stage
lines running to the north and the
other to be utilized by the busses op
erating to points south of the city.
It was announced that as quickly as
the committee found out what steps
it could take in connection with the
street-car tracks the members would
study other features of the traffic
congestion problem.

Asleep in Market Basket.
In a bed of pansies at the home of
C. S. McGeehon, 674 East Thirty-fifth

been received from an unidentified
woman. Mr. McGeehen went into the
yard and there found a market bas

had been tenderly protected with pink
and white baby blankets and was fast
asleep when taken into the house.
It was shortly after 9 o'clock Tues
day night when Mr. McGeehon an

warned by a woman's voice to watch
out for burglars and to examine his
premises before he retired. At about
midnight he was again admonished
to get up and walk about the house
before he retired. A few minutes
later a third call asked him to look at
his pansy bed. The same woman

Thoroughly mystified, Mr. McGee
hon went into the yard and found the
baby some time after midnight He
took the infant into the house, but
did not notify the police.
At about 3 o'clock yesterday morn
