extension OF Canslst and the widening of Wslkerst
He aid T considered that the Alderman of the Fifth
would join him in asking that the time sough, for be
given as both Wards were heavily assessed. The
Tenth Ward which would be more benefited by the
proposed meas than any other, taxed only to

blocks nine each side and beside there very
erroneous valuation ana estimate, which he (Ald. to

Mayor sent in that paper that he was at all acquainted
with the merits of the case He says the property
holders not in in favor Of this Railroad but know
they are and stated reason foI voting for the

souer stating that the at present assigned To that
DEPARTMENT In the Hall Of Records not sufficient,
and that the Clerks employed were forced TO occupy
rocms different from those in which the head OF the
DEPARTMENT acted business and that this of itself
was great Inconvenience and he asked that the sec
cond story Of tie new building the northeast corner
of the Park fronting Chamberss, be assigned for the
of that Department.

which the Board were then assembled ought 10 be as

rooms found In the other buildings for the Courts OF
Law This arrangement would be more convenient
ard better for all parties and he Ad. 81 trusted the
matter would be referred with instructions 10 makea
special report on the entire matter.

building being used by the City Government which V
that there would be so many papers TO be kept as
