rEN HERALD AND HEWS . Tuesday. Aug. 81. 1845 CITY COUNCIL OUSTS DOWNS AS INSPECTOR The city council last , night suspended A. W. Downs, city building inspector, who is in jail charged with arson. Tem porarily stepping into the posi tion will be Police Judge Harold Franoy, who was granted per mission to Dass on construction until a new building inspector Is chosen. Councilmen decided to with hold $15, which Downs alleged ly owed the city, from his sal ary. The former building inspec tor is specifically accused of burning one local building. Arising with the business of building inspector was a re quest from Mark Green of 515 Jefferson for permission from the council to continue work on a house he was building. Green had gotten permission to re model an old building on the back of his lot, but when he discovered that it was beyond repair he was granted a build ing permit to build a 3-room cottage there as he wanted to save the front part for another house he planned to build at a later date. After the concrete foundation had been laid Downs then advised Green that he move the house to the front part of his lot as Green was building a two-story house in stead of the three-room cottage. Green's request to continue the work was referred to the may ..; or's office. The baseball question raised its head again last night when Mrs. Charles Hdllenbeck of 625 Adams street, charged that an other window in her house had been broken. She has added 14 baseballs to her collection dur ing the past week. The council stated that it could do nothing about it as she had not allowed it to put up on her property, screens which would protect her from the baseballs. Mrs. Hollen beck declared that the park was a menace to property and was a chicken yard. Councilman Paul Landry asked her to bear with the council and the games as only a few remained to be Stayed. Councilmen Landry and larvey Martin arranged to meet with Charles Hollenbeck this evening in an effort to settle the matter. ' A bill for $14.60 from the Glass House was presented to the council by the West End .'market, charging that their store window had been cracked 'by a rock left on the street by the city when a nearby sewer was Being repaired. E. A. Thomas, city engineer, explained that a loose rock in the street had been thrown by a truck or car, cracking the window. He pointed out that the rock was not necessarily left there when the city had repaired the sewer but could have come from number of other sources. This matter was referred to the city attorney to determine if the city was liable. Thomas requested permission from the council to put in a storm sewer at S. Riverside next to the California Oregon Power company warehouse. The outlet which in the nast had gone into low property has peen lunng up until it is now necessary to run the storm sewer to a lower point. This project, costing $300, was ap- jjrovea cy me council. . A recommendation from the gift commission advised the council that it purchase lots from Mrs. Geneva Finnell for the Memorial park. The city at torney was authorized to pre pare tne necessary papers to carry out the $12,000 sale. The gift commission also advised that the city pay Syd Evans $7000 for block 27 of the orig inal town, this property to be used in the Memorial park. This was accepted by the council with the understanding that Evans was to remove buildings vi uic jaiiu wiiuiji six monins. '. The council moved to pur chase lot 3 and the west 12 hi feet of lot 2, block 29, of the original town for $3300 to be included in the Memorial park. It is owned by Dama Lennan.
