Carnegie library. Thirty-four of the
41 estimators were present and gll but
oue, Estimator Anklam, voted In favor
of Uie bond issue. Estimator McGraw
was excused from voting on the
ground that he was Interested In a
business way in the project.
Loss than an hour was sufficient for
the board to meet, consider the prop
osition, vote the bond Issue and ad
journ. The need of the additional
land in connection with Detroit’s new
$3,000,000 art center for Woodward
ave., was quite generally understood
by the board of estimates, and the
recommendation of the council and
library commission went a long way
in aiding them form their judgment.

referred to the committee on educa
tion and library funds. The commit
tee was in session 16 minutes. Lib
rary Commissioner Duffleld explain
ing the plan in detail. It was on Mr.
Barnett’s motion that the committee

port. He said that the two lotß pro
posed to be taken are owned respec
tively by Mary C. W. Black, who
asks $40,000 for her property with a
frontage of 67 feet on Woodward-ave.,
and Moore, who asks $76,000
for 116 feet frontage, owned by her.
He said that the appraisal committee
of the Detroit Real Estate board had
appraised the lots at $37,600 and $46,-
200, respectively. The value of the
two lots as estimated by the commit
tee Is $83,700, whlU* the total asked by
the two owners Is $116,000. Mr, Duf
fleld explained that unless the library
commission could get the land for
about what the real estate board satd
It is worth condemnation proceedings
will be Instituted. He said the com
mission will not need $120,000, but a
sufficient amount was asked for to
cover all contingencies. Bonds will
be issued only for the actual cost of
the land.
The land will be purchased so that

ACCUSED CONVICT SAYS
HE’LL PROVE INNOCENCE
JACKSON, Mich., Nov. 30.—Joseph
Davidson, the ’’Shonicker," charged
with complicity in the plot to burn
the binder plant at the prison, has
made his first statement regarding the
riot and charges made against him.
He says he was iu the prison hospital
when the riots took place.
Davidson was sentenced to Jack
son for from two and one-half to 14
years for forgery from Kalamazoo In
llill. He was a traveling salesman
at that time. The circuit judge of
Kalamazoo suspended sentence. Dav
idson was arrested later for breaking
his parole and sentenced to prison.
It Is pfobable that before the case
against Davidson comes up, the state's
attention will be called to the fact that
Jackson county has been defraying
the expenses of these state prison
coses for a large number of years. As
they are state cases in which Jackson
county is not particularly interested,
the state will be asked to defray ths
0031&.
Three years ago the grand Jury in

and two years ago the dynamiting
case came up and Jackson county also
defrayed these expenses.
