Mr. WM. A DARLING, Pr sident OF the Third ave-
Due Railroad Company said dthatthe ordinance, though
SAID to be passed more particularly tor the benefit OF

that on the contrary, il wss good for them Add,
even in Broadway, the slush 10 the street is very
poor substitute for soigrng, as the rnnners cut
