LOCATED ON A VACANT LOT Contract Awarded for Moving; It and Hale of . Building; to Julias Jensen la Ratified by the City Council. As a result of a conference Meld yesterday afternoon between the members of the city council and representatives of the Commer cial club, the National Horticultural con gress and the Auditorium company, the fire station at the foot of Bryant street will not be moved rut Into the street Intersection In front of the main entrance of the audi torium while the new fire bouse Is being constructed. A plan for disposing of the old engine house wus agreed upon which Is satisfactory to all the Interests Involved. It was decided to move the building di rectly across Main street to the lot formerly occupied as a wood and coal yard and more recently by the Nevada Mptor company. This locution will afford the fire depart ment convenient means of getting out and into the building and will remove It entirely from the street and away from the audi torium. The cost of moving the building across Main street will be but little mora than that of moving it twenty-five feet from Its present site Into the street inter section. Following the conference the city council, at the suggestion of Mayor Maloney, held a special meeting and took formal action in the matter, directing that the fire house be moved across Main street and a contract with Hollenbeck Brothers for moving It was approved. The city will bear the expense of moving the bulldlpg, which has been sold to Julius Jensen for .77 under his bid filed last Mondsy. Jerujn's bid provided that ths city coulM retain occupancy of the build ing as long as It needed tov CANVASS OF VOTES IS COMPLETE Con aress man Smith Runs Akead of the Ticket.

Monday, December 14, has been desig nated as Council Bluffs day at the National Corn exposition In Omaha. Announcement to this effect was made yesterday by Our don W. Wattles, who has charge of the arrangements for special days during the exposition. Victor E. Bender has been re quested by Mr. Wattles to preside at the exercises planned to be held on that day. In his letter to Mr. Bender the following suggestions are offered by Mr. Wattles: We wish to make It an event which will attract the attention of the people of Council Bluffs generally, and make their attendance worth while. My notion Is that you ought to preside at the ex ercises and that the mayor of your city should make a brief address. The mayor of Omuha might be expected to make a brief address of welcome. I wish to lift the program of Council Bluffs day out of the perfunctory order of exercises and make of It something worth while. How would It do to get a band and have a special train of motor cars to leave Council Bluffs at a given time and place It has been suggested since Mr. Wattles letter was received that the special day for Council Bluffs should be for Council Bluffs and Pottawattamie county, as the farmers In this county are evincing much Interest In the exposition. The commission tn Pot. tawattamle county has done some good work and aroused considerable enthusiasm among the farmers and for this resson It is suggested that the special day on December 14 should be for Council Bluffs snd Pot tawattamie county and not for Council Bluffs alone. It Is expected that this sug gestion will be made to Mr. Wattles and the other managers of the Nstlonal Corn exposition. Real Estate Transfers.
