STREET CLEANING.



The Board OF Police has issued instructions In
wiling propositions for the contract for cleaning the
streets OF the city in the event Of the failure OF the
present contractor to perform the work In man.
ner satisfactory to the Board. Under the act re-
Gently passed by the Legislature the Board of Police
gets immediate control over the contract but until
the 4th day OF June the Board does not come into
all the power given to II by the act Just passed.
from that date the Police Commission
ers assume entire charge Of the streets,
and can at will give out the contract to another
party or create bureau OF street cleaning, and do
the work through the department. The feeling in
the Board at present Is that this would be an
amount of extra labor on the Commissioners for
which they have scarcely time, and the chances are
that the prospect OF success would be only doubt
ful. Another means OF doing the work that has
been proposed to the Board Is to divide up the city
into districts, and appoint separate contractor for
each division. This plan, however, is not likely TO
gain upon the Board, the difficulty In the way o.
nndng number OF men to take the contracts who
would DC In position to perform the duties re-
an Oh Them Is very great The principal obstacle
the want OF the necessary machinery to clear up
ana carry the dirt The probability IL, from present
Tor the cleaning OF the entire city to one man. If the
work IS not properly done up to the Fourth OF June
BY this means the Commissioners win be able to keen
up q strict supervision OF the work, and give the
people the much needed blessing of clean thorough
subject Is the dumping OF the garbage and dirt re-
moved from the city. The Commissioners of Police
place within the city limits, but will insist
upon the contractor putting oil the dirt, garbage
and other refusal into boats at the foot OF some
then taking it all away from the city. Whether the
useless portions OF the refuse will then be flung
into the water at Sandy Hook or deposited upon
some island set aside for the purpose has not yet
been decided by the Board but In all probability a
place will be found down the bay for the purpose OF
dumping the garbage on. Commissioner Barr is OF
opinion that the cheapest and best way to clean the
streets and keep them in healthy condition would
be to give the work to one man and by q constant
surveillance by the police keep him up to his work.
