Borne of the members who took part In the discussion claimed that the railroads discriminated in favor of the coal dealers, aa against the grain dealers when It came to the question ot cars. Representatives of several of the leading railroads . were present and denied the al leged discrimination. They explained that the shortage of cars was due to the ex traordinary conditions resulting from the strike of the coal miners. The bylaws were amended so ss to make the dues payable quarterly in advance In stead of monthly, thus .saving postage and bookkeeping on the part of the secretary and treasurer.

City Clerk Phillips has for several years also acted as clerk of the Park board and the meetings of the board were usually held In his office. The rental of the newly acquired office Is $110 a year, but the commissioners expect to save $100 a year by dispensing with the services of Clerk Phillips and having one of the members of the board prepare tha records and do the clerical work. With the exception of raising one of the sections of Bayllss park the commissioners do not expect to expend much money on tB&dlty parks this year, as they anticipate a. heavy expense 'in defending the suit brought by Wright A Mayne. - f" Maceabees Give a Dance. : .
