most favorable auspices.
 Jackson Street Bridge. There was to have been a meeting yester- | day morning of the Committee on Bridges of the Board of Public Works to look into the matter of the proposed bridge at Jackson street, Fair Haven, over the Shore Line track, but in consequence of 8 proposition made by President Wstrous the meeting was postponed to give the committee time to con- sider the proposal and possibly lay it before the Board of Public Works. What MT. Watrous offered to do in the matter could not be learned, but it is understood his com pany favor having the railroad cross the street either above or below grade equally as much as do the residents of that vicinity. Accident to a Hack-LO<s of Two Horses.
 Robert Craig, hackman of this city, went down to the depot yesterday to await the arrival of the Hartford express which is due shortly before o'clock. As the weather was cold, the horses became impatient and took trip up Union avenue towards Water street. They started to go down Water street, and reached the crossing just before the train did. The railroad gate was shut, but the horses ran at it full tilt and broke the gate, but were unable to get the hack across before the train struck them One horse was instantly killed and the other so badly hurt that he will have to be shot. The hack was completely demolished. The acci- dent was great loss to MT. Craig.
