BOARD OF ALDERMEN.

The City Fathers held regular session yesterday
afternoon. The usual crowd of interested local
statesmen were present in expectation that Mayor
Cooper would send in list of nominations for
the numerous commissionership vacancies. but no
communication to this effect was transmitted.
Mayor Cooper sent in q veto Of high.soundng reso-
lutions recently passed condomnatory OF the mi an.
agement Of the L railroad companies partic ulsrly
with reference to the alleged obstruction of Battery
Park. In concluding this veto the Mayor says.-
'The occupation Of public streets and places by the
elevated other railroad without compensation to
the city and to the of tho adjacent property
damaged thereby Is an injustice which should not
have been permitted and which should be corrected
wherever legally possible. will request the Coun-
sci to the Corporation to take proper proceedings to
elevated railroads upon Battery Park other public
parks whenever any such encroachmcnts shall be
tempted. Upon visiting Battery Park do not find
anything to indicate that any further
structures are now in progress or In prepar.
alton.
The Mayor also sent In veto OF tho resolution ex-
cmptng tho Roman Catholic Orphan Asy lums from
pay ment OF Croton water taxes. The veto is based
upon opinion of the Corporation Counsel relative
to this matter recently published In the HERALD.
On motion of Alderman Stewart (who remarked
that the Board might expect an important
cation from the Mayor ut that timc) the Board ad-
journed over until Thursday next 1t ~ understood
that veto OF the Chambers street railroad lob will
be in. ten days will then have expired since
the passage OF this peculiar resolution. Under tho
rules tho veto will have to remain ten days on the
files of the Board before II can be acted upon Rumor
and the City Hall gives out that tho resolution will
be passed over the Mayors veto.

BROOKLYN RAPID TRANSIT.

The Kings County IL" road case came up before
Justices Barnard. Gilbert and Pratt. sitting at Gen.
eral Term of the Kings County Supreme Court.
yesterday, when argument on the confirmation
of the report of the commissioners appointed
to lay out the route took place. Henry
M. scudder and ex-Judge Emott appeared in
behalf of the railway company and for the onrma-
ton of the report. Tho report was opposed by
General B. L. Tracy. William G. Dewitt. Edgar NJ.
Cullen and Winchester Britton. who represented
number of property owners. The same points AZ
were presented before the Court OF Appeals were
again brought up by exJudge Emott for the railway
company, yesterday. The formation OF the Mayors
commission, the organization of the company, the
appointment of the supreme Court commission and
the action of the Common Council in granting the
company the privilege of constructing its road, he
claimed. were all legal. The issue now was simply
those of individuals. The confirmation OF the re-
port opposed by General Tracy. who claimed
that the action taken by the commissioners was
VOID, because they exceeded their authority. Tho
fifth section of the Rapid Transit act requiring the
commissioners to invite the submission of plans
for the construction and operation of such rail-
way, not, ho stated. complied with;
also, that the report of the commissioners
appointed by the Court. so far 1t gave consent to
the building of road ON Fulton street should not
ba confirmed. for tho reason that the time for the
completion of that portion OF the railway, liked
by the Mayors commission had expired The action
claimed, invalid. Mr. Dewitt also presented
arguments against the confirmation of the report
similar to those presented to tho Court of Appeals
Decision reserved.

TUTORS SALARIES.

The trustees Of tho College Of tho City of New
York held n meeting yesterday with President Wood
in tho chair. when the Executive Committee pre-
sented resolution rcpcaling section 50 OF the
bylaws. which provided for the exhibition OF the
junior class. Mr.. Jcllfro explained that II
was thought advisable to do away with
the exhibition, and tho bylaw was unani-
mously repealed. The Executive Committee
submitted II resolution, recommending that the
salaries of Mcssrs. Kenyon Davis and Kopp, tutors
in the college, be increased from 81 200 to 81 5CO
and that Messrs Smith and Morgenthau, also tutors,
be advanced from $500 to 81 900 year. MIR. Watson
speaking of the two last named, said II was dis.
grace. rather unfortunate, that such young men,
only six months out of baby byhoud," should be ap-
pointed instr,ctor in the college. He believed
tLat these boys should begin at the foot of the lad
der and work up and he was not in favor of AL
vancing their salaries until they that they are
worthy of 1t. He would not object to raising them
at the proper time. After further discussion, in
which President Webb and Messrs. Jelliffe and
Wheeler supported the proposed increase, the sal.
aries were raised suggested by the Executive Com
