GENTLEMEN: The COMMITTEE on Public
Buildings, City property and Markets, TO

Mccarthy IN regard to the purchase OF a lot
IN the Sixth ward for public market, report
that the establishment of public market is
public necessity, but your committee do not
believe that one lot would be sufficiently large
TO be OF any particular value as market
place.
Your committee favor the purchase of two
or more lots, while property can be purchased
at reasonable figures in the Sixth ward, for
market purposes; but as there are no funds ap-
plicable for that purpose at this time, your
committee recommend that the cost be ascer-
fofr of url,a ,artxY rOr111 hn

that the same be included in the tax levy. Re.
