CItY PAssENGKR RAiLRoAns-At the last meeting OF
the Council petition presented from Messrs Brum'
NELL Lancaster and Others asking the right OF way for
city passenger railroads, through the the following
streets;
lst From such point at Rockets they may select,
20 Main street. along Main TO 9Th sh or yin street.
along those streets any OF them TO Broad street
thence along Broad street far west as they may de-
sire.
9i From the intersection of Main and 9th street, up
Main street as far west they desire, thence by any
street to Franklin thence down Franklin thence
by Ninth street. any other cross to Main street
Sd From the Intersection Of Broad and 9Th streets TO
Leigh street. either by Ninth street. by Broad and
Tenth Streets thence up Leigh far west as they may
desire thence by any cross street Clay street thence
along Clay street to either 9th or 10th street.
In the hrst named they ask leave to construct
either single track with suitable turnouts or double
trick, rs upon close examination they may find most de-
srable upon the other routes only single track with
suitable tutuOuts.
The petitioners state that since their first application
they have fully Investigated the subject and have become
fully satisfied that such roads cannot be constructed and
maintained in this city, without loss, if the fare IS hm
ted to i've cents and the required TO pay four per
cent Of the gross receipts the city. They therefore
ask that the ordinance passed the 10Th ut, may be
amended permit them to receive fare not great
e. than six cents head, and ia lieu Of all taxes and as
seSsmen to pay to the city per cent OF the net pro
fits of the company derived from the transportation Of
passengers within the city limits.
The petition referred 20 the Commissioners OF
Streets. who viii have meeting the 9Th May, aud
possibly az an earlier day, if they urged to do So
