GreenSsteet, which cannot be bridged, He
also spoke of the necessity of running all the
freight trans, which we are about to remove
the track from the common to get rid of,
either directly through the depot at
Green street, or on the outside, in
either case cutting off access TO passengers, and
leaving no room for hacks. He alluded to the
difficulty likely to be experienced in obtaining
the necessary space between Green and Grafton
streets, and with the aid of the various plans
exhibited, showed the precise effect of such loca-
ton.
Hon. W. W. Rice, for the Norwich road, fol-
lowed Mr.. Nelson, in a lorcible argument favor
ing the location between Green and Grafton
streets. He claimed that depot so located
would best meet the wants of the people of
the county, the people of the city,
and the railroads coming into the
city from the north and south, while the differ
ence to the Boston and Albany road would only
be in the cost of the land on which to build
The matter Of a few hundred thousand dollars,
he said, ought not to be taken into consideration
in fixing the location for all time of a depot so
important to the welfare of the city He made
a strong point of the fact that by locating the
depot on the proposed site east of Grafton street.
the roads passing through the city, north and
south, are compelled TO turn mile and a half to
the east Of the direct course, and enter the de-
pot in such a manner as to leave them COM
pletely turned around, while by good rights
the roads running north and south should
be allowed direct course, as well as
the road passing through the city to the east
and west. He admitted that this direct course,
so necessary to continuous travel, had been
broken by the taking of the rails from the COM
mon, but claimed that it was unreasonable to
ask the roads to go so far out of their way as
would be necessary if the depot should be To-
Gated east of Grafton street. He believed that
there would at some time be a consolidation of
the roads coming into the city from the north
and south, and then the travel would all be con-
tnuOus and could not be subjected TO the in
convenience of the backing and turning made
necessary by a depot in Pine meadow. In
enumeratng the advantages Of the Green street
location, he dwelt upon the fact that it would be
much nearer the center of the city than the
other; reckoning the center of populatiOn-lrOm
north to south-to be at the junction of Main
and Southbridge streets, and from east to west
at the junction of Park and Portland streets
while the location cast of Grafton street would
be on the eastern border of the city, with the
growth of the city tending altogether to the west
and southwark.
At the close of Mr.. Rice's statement the COM
mission took carriages and visited the locations,
also viewed them from Union hill and the hill
southeast of Washington square, after which
they rode to the western limits of city, and thus
had an opportunity of understanding the effect
from all points. The hearing will be resumed
ut nine O'Clock this morning.

THE PRAYER BOOK QUESTION.
New YORK, Sept. 11.-Rev. Mason Gallagher,
associate minister of the Emanuel Episcopal
church. prefaced the exercises of that church
yesterday by stating that he had always been
in the habit, when conducting service in Il
building not under the control of the Episcopal
church, of using such forms as occasion re-
quire. But now, having determined henCetorth
to use the union prayer book, it seemed proper
to withdraw from the church the liturgy of
which he should cease TO use. He then read Il
letter to Bishop Potter, giving the causes for
Withdrawing from the Episcopal ministry Rev.

his hand, said:
Good morning, bishopP
The bishop refused to return the salutation,
and said:

garb."
The bishop then spoke to the wardens, but
Warden Crane assured him he might proceed
with the ceremony wholly or partially. Cheney
would assist or not as the bishop pleased, but
Cheney must remain in the chancel, as he was
rector Of the parish, and no power of the bishop
or Others should keep him out

head of the church.
Crane replied that no force was used. The
