1034 root-44 the following order :-2nsigno J,

rnittee, of which he was a member, had taken in respect to
their selection of the cetripetinr; schemes of railways for
the metropolis. Ile contended that nukes the house were
prepared to deal with the whole question, the only course
would be to accept the reports of the committee.
Sir J. SHELLEY said that the discussion proved that
the House of C 011.1111( ne was not a proper tribunal to deal
with the subject of metropolitan railway legislation.
The amendment was negatived without a diribiun.
Mr. CRAWFORD then inovcd the following amendment
to the motion of 1\ lr. Pd. (;ilion, that after " Tot tcr,ham and
Farringdon-alreet Railway," odd, "and so much of Ihe Me-
tropolitan District Railways Bilt, No. 33, as refers to the pro-
posed works situated to the eastward of lilackfrinim-bridge
to-ether with the Metropolitan Distinct Railways Bill, No.'
to-
ether
He contended that the construction of the underground
railway to which his amendment referred would be attended
with the greatest obstruction to the traffic of a most impor-
tant thoroughfare of the metropolis. He did not think
that the house was called on to adopt the suggestion
of a commi tieeof gentlemen which more materially affected
corns of the most valuable property in London. Having
referred to the hardships inflicted on some of the humbler
c
classes by being driven out of their dwellings through the
of railway undertakings in certain districts,
he appealed to the house not to sanction the construction
of
_the railway to which ho adverted.
