Commissioner Appointed.

Judge Wales has appointed, at the
request of City Council, the following
commissioners to estimate the damages
and benefits to arise from the opening
OF Madison street, from Front street
TO the south side of the p, w. e. B.
II. H.: Albert w. Smith, John p,
Springer, H. X. Bringhurst, John r.
Doughten, e. X. Crawford.
This commission was asked for at
the request of the Wilmington Coal
Gas Company, who desired Madison
street, extended from D. point below
heed stieet TO- the railr6ad, IN order
to facilitate contemplated improve
ments to their works. Madison street
has for years been opened from Front
TO heed, but the bed is not owned by
the city, and hence the commission
was made to cover this part also.
As far as the extension especially
desired by the Gas Company is con-
cerned, the damages will be merely
nominal, but the widening of Madison
street from Front street down, it not
being full width at present, will be apt
TO prove costly, as a number of houses
ON Maryland avenue would DO serious
ly impaired, and gOodly slice taken
from the Wilmington Il Northern r.
II. Co. Is freight office. In view of this
TACT it is not likely that anything will
be done by Council beyond extending
the street from the gas works TO the
railroad, the eest of which will be
small.
