A MARVELLOUS IN THE SEVENTH WAN
Pursuant to caI published in several Of the citv
papers, meeting of the Seventh warders was
held at the Island Hall last evening The attend
ance was quite slim, owing to the limited publ
cation of the calls, and to the circulation Of an
impression that the meeting was called by parties
in one only the several sites designated
for market house in that ward. Those present
however, comprised persons from all parts of the
ward, and all the several interests very fairly
as tn pToportionate numbe;s.
The meeting was called to order by Mr. Geo E.
Kirk, on whose motion Mr. SamuelY. Atlee was
chosen to preside. and Mr.. Chas Allen was called
to act rs secretary.
Mr.. Kirk then stated the object of calling the
meeting, which WAS that as one branch of the
City Council had selected so uare O. 49S on Four
and-a-half stree:, between II and l. as the site for
the market-house, and as this was Objectionable
to large number Of the residents in the ward. it
was deemed important that the people of the ward
should at once give some expression of opinion as
to where the majority would prefer to have the
mar house located. This meeting he thought
altogether too small to take any decided action in
the premises. and, therefore, moved the appoint
ment OF a committee to consider the matter obtain
all the Information they can and report at future
meeting, OF which general notice to all the people
of the ward shall be given.
This motion was adopted: and Nessrx VIM
ettibone, John Van Reswick. J. s. Cassell, VIM.
Wise, Samuel Humphrey, George Mattingly and
George w Jarrett Were elected such committee
that this meeting disapprove Of the selection Of
square 49e. (that selected by the Board Of Alder
men, as the site for the contemplated market
house This elected very considerable discussion.
Notwithstanding the chairman ruled IL out OF order
it was strenuOusly opposed by several; and final
ly, as the whole subject had been previously re
ferred to the committee, II was withdrawn
The meeting then adjourned until next We'd
nesday evening the 18th inst to meet in the same
place. in the lower story Of Island Hail. entrance
