DeJdtes-Mr. COSOyER cOntended that by the adop-
ton Of the resolutions the people would be injured In
stead of benefited The streets specified for the farm
eIs to stand in are great business horoughfares, and
this resolution would block them up entirely. The
hucksters are pursuing fair and honorable business
pay their rent and taxes 10 the City, and should be
protected Just much the farmers, who do neither
lie would be in favor Of approx nating Hudson Canal
or FourteeDth-st TO the market wagons but IN the
streets proposed the wagons would be nuisance.
He moved as an amendment to the second resolution,
that the farmers and market men be allowed 20 occupy
the west side of Canal ST. from Broadway to the river
Mr. PRESIIss was opposed to putting the market
gardeners in Canal-st by the removal OF shantes on
the buIkhead aud around Washington Market, plenty
Of space wonld be afforded to the farmers IN That
neg hborhood
Mr.. MAxwELL advocated Mr. Conoyers amend
meI..
that uIti the people asked Tor IL, and ample accom-
uodafoLs are provided for them up town the market
gardeners should remain where they now are. He
said this was the with OF the farmers themselves.
Mr.. RIDDER said he had beard no good argument
IN favor of giving the market gar ieners the right to
stand IN the streets Ire mOTemeft last Winter
in consequence of the distressed situation of the poor.
He thought it absurd to crowd all of the marketmen
down town the people would find Il impossible 70 get
at them, and grocers and mic de-fnen would mOnOp-
Ollie az before. De would favor general dsirbu-
i'm ii The fRrulers thrnnrhnut The GifY.
