How long will the jury in the case
of Joe Camion, charged with forgery
and passing, be out?
This is a live question about the
courthouse as a result of Judge Fish-
er’s talk to the jury and the response
to it made by O- P. Basford, foreman
of the jury.
The Jury which retired late Wednes-
day to consider its verdict reported to
Judge Fisher Thursday morning that
it had been unable to agree.
In reply, Judge Fisher pointed out
that his court will b in session until
Dec. 24 and urged the jurors to retire
again and take plenty of time to con-
sider thelr verdict. He told them they
need be In no hurry.
“What date did you say, Judge?*
asked Mr. Basford.
“Dec. 24.” answered the court.
“Very well, your honor, we will be
here,” was the rejoinder as the jurors
again retired.

the Eleventh Street paving, he would
move that the $4000 obligation on the
part of the street department to the
general contingent fund, be cancelled
and the money allowed for the Eleventh
Street work.

Mayor's resolution was passed and that
was shortly before the session was
closed.
They were assured at the outset by
Mayor Wooldridge that there need be
no fear that Eleventh Street would get
no paving. The Mayor went over the
grounds of the city’s obligation to or-
dering pacing on Eleventh Street be-
ause of the appropriation made by
i the State for its part of the work and
the resulting moral responsibility of
the city to keep faith and do its part.
"While the ally's part of paving
Eleventh Street has not been provided
for in the estimates,” the Mayor said,
“there need be no fear about getting
the money. I do not see how anybody
can dissent to the belief that Austin's
first duty in paving is to pave that
street. Because paving on that street
is of such supreme importance, it will
probably be the first to receive atten-
“Ion.”
1 “I tell you, we are getting tired of
.playing Indian,” said Tom Walling,
one of the Eleventh Street paving ad-
vocates, “If Eleventh Street is to get
paving, why can’t the Commission say
so? Why can't the matter be settled
one way or the other go we will know
what you are going to do and accord-
I ingly know how to act?”
In reference to the delay. Mayor
Wooldridge said that one member of
the Commission had said words to the
effect that the city had had to wait
, on the state and now the State could
I wait on the city.
"That's just what we are here to
' learn about,” said one of the Eleventh
Street men.
“Why didn't you include Eleventh
: Street in the list of streets to bo paved
which you made the other day?” asked
Mr. Walling. "It only costs the city
approximately >17,900 to have Eleventh
। Street paved from Brazos to Reel River
1 Street. You didn’t fail to include West
I Avenue in the list and paving for that
street will be much more expensive
Ito the city than Eleventh Street pav-
Ing. And you didn't fall to include
’the block on Nineteenth Street from
(West Avenue to Rio Grande Street
I in that list.”
I "How about a fair distribulion of
I the taxpayers’ money on the east side?”
asked A. F. Martin. He and Mr. Wal-
ling were the most urgent advocates
of Eleventh Street paving present.
Commissioner Powell took occasion
'to call attention to the* fact that the
Commission has as yet made no ap-
| propriation for the paving of any
j street. "The only money that has been
appropriated.” said Commissioner
Powell, "is that which the State has
appropriated for its part of the
! Eleventh street paving. It is first nec-
i essary to get all the estimates before
us tefore any appropriations are
'made. We now have the engineers at
। work on th© specifications for the
'bridges that are to be built. These
must be considered as well as the pav-
Jing. There has been no idea to leave
'out Eleventh Street. There has been
i no Intention to omit Eleventh Street
from those t be paved.”
| Attention was called by some one to
the fact that Eleventh Street was in
'a list printed in a newspaper and pur-
porting to-be the list of streets omitted
from those to be pave Commissioner
Haynes said that any statement that
Eleventh Street had been omitted from
consideration for paving was unau-
thorized by the Commission.
J Mr Walling asked If the Commission
1 didn’t officially decide on Eleventh
I Street for paving the other day. He
’ was told by a member at the Commis-
sion that such was not one
At length, after the West Avenue
matter had been re-opened and dis-
cussed again from the standpoint of
•fair distribution of the paving money,
' ommissioner Haynes rose to his feet
tend declared that he thought the peo-
ple of Eleventh street were asking
। very little, and he moved that Eleventh
; Street be ordered paved from Lavaca
I Street to Red River Street. Mayor
Wooldridge offered as a substitute, mo-
tion that no appropriation save for
raving on Eleventh from Lavaca to
! San Jacinto, be made. Commissioner
Bartholomew requested that Commis-
1 sioner Haynes withdraw his motion, as
he considered it best not to take in too
much at once. Commissioner Haynes
finally acceded to the request.
There was a new turn to the West
/venue paving question. Francis Fish-
er announced to the Commission that
he represented a number of West Ave-
I nue people who were perfectly willing
Ito have the paving on West Avenue
| postponed for some time. He called
the names of several property owners
who he said would rather wait for tha
l paving than to have it done now. Wal-
ter Bremond commented on the West
Avenue situation, saying that it seems
rather funny that the Commission
should order paving where it is not
wanted and decline to allow paving
I where it is wanted very badly. He suid
I further that so far ns the matter hav-
i Ing been definitely derided. It was
ahsurd to consider It closed until the
contract for the paving had been let.
• Ram Sparks denied that the majority
of West Avenue property owners do
rot want paving, saying that they fest
: just the other way.
I Otto Stolley made a very decided
talk in commenting on the action of
’the Commission relative to the West
Avenue paving. He declared that no
one save the people who live on West
A A venue want paving there, that pavirg
West Avenue would be paving a pri-
vate boulevard and that such action
I would be nonsensical.
A. J. Ellers, a member of the citi-
I sens' advisory paving committee, also
| epoke on the action of the Commission
iv voting to order West Avenue paved
1'1 think you have put too much money
I In West Austin," he said. “Rio Grande

of the city to pave. A* a member of

I you will reconsider. I am talking for
