By the order of the Police Commissioners, and
under the supervision OF Captain Williams, spring
sfreet-cIeaning was begun in the lower part of the
city Yesterday, Almost the entire street-cleaning
force, consisting Of several hundred laborers and
cartnen was set to work 10 the morning on the
thoronghfares west of Broadway below Canalst
Greeuwich-st, through which the Ninth Avenue
Elevated Road runs, was the worst condition,
being covered for the most part with an accumula-
ton OF ice snow and mud almost foot deep. The
ice in some places SO firm that II was with dtn
culty removed with pick and shovel That part OF
Westinghouse lying below Canal-st which
rivalled its near neighbor in extent and quality OF
It's filth was also cleaned. gang OF laborers was
set at work in NewCburch-st, and greatly improved
its appearance and condition by removing the ridges
of ice and filth that had been thrown up at the
and vet greatly in need of it, again laid bare
to the light. These streets were cleaned inst be-
cause they were Ia the worst condition. and the
work was done yesterday because the lncessant
traffic through them makes it impossible to clean
them on weekday 1t is proposed to proceed with
the sisaning as rapidly as possible until the streets
throughout the city are all in good condition.
