'The east side 1s getting anxious con
cerning . the time of completion of - the
Grand-avenue fllL and tha Improvement
association is urging that day and night
erurts be placed on tba contract ao that
the present embargo on central east aide
trade may be removed aa soon aa possi
ble. In furtherance of this program, tha
association appointed a committee of
three at lta last session to meat with
tha executive board and urge tha matter
on that body's attention. Tha board at
lta last night's meeting heard tha com
plaint of the committee, but aald that
nothing could be dona until tba con
tractor applied for an extension of time,
when the complaint could bo given full
weight. . . .
Though a vaat amount of dirt has been
delivered, the "progress Is not yet satis
factory, for tha center'of the fill keeps'
sinking, thought for several daya paat It
haa not dropped enough to stop traffic
over tha embankment, and for most of
tha time the street railway company has
been able to. route Its cara over thla
track when going and- coming) from the
East Twenty-eighth street barn.
One of the chief worries now troubling
tha workmen la the action of tha fill oa
ina pig sewer mat runs unaer wis nil
along tha noflth bank .of the gulch. .- The
cribbing I, Laced about the sewer for Its
protection baa been forced out of place
by tha pressure of dirt to the north,
and haa carried tba sewer soma dis
tance out of Una Though workmen
have been employed alnca tha flU .was
started In an effort to keep "the sewer
from being wrecked, tha conduit at pres
ent Is badly out of line, several big leaks
have been sprung, and at present It looks
aa though about 100 feet .of tha drain
would hare to be relald when tha fill la
completed. . - . .'..', .'; j
FAVOR GUARD RAILS.
Xorrlsoa Srldjre Flaa to Be. Adopted aa
. Baa Bttde Struct ares. -Soma
of the east aide business men
who employ several teams in their trade
have recently made an attempt to secure
the removal of tha guards on the Mor
rison street bridge that prevent the
teamsters from using tha full bridge
and force -them in tinea ona .abreast
aoroaa the structure, f This attempt.
however, haa not met With general ap
proval, , and It tha sentiment, as ex
pressed by the East Side Improvement
association and other clubs is taken as
guide,- the new bridges to bo built on
the east aide will have the same guards
and the teamsters will-have additional
causa to bewail. ,.
Investigation : ahowed soma. 'months
ago that cara carrying 18,000 people
crossed the Morrison street bridge each
rtav while there were less than 1.000
teams paastng over the structure during
the same period. When there were no
guard rails, the moat significant wagon
could blockade tha rlejnt of way on the
bridge, holding up half a doaen cara with
perhaps too people, and the motorman
had no recourse. . -
Since tha rails have been placed, team
trafflo la aald to move across the Mor
rison bridge at as rapid a pace as when
the entire structure waa open, because
there Is no crowding or delay in passing,
and five and ten minutes has been cut
from the schedule of the cara using the
structure. .
