After the EIectton,
[From the Brooklyn Daily Eagle. ]


 One effect of the election will be to main tain the building activity, so notable in the past two years, and which seems destined soon to bring Brooklyn to the first rank of American cities. In the value of the struc- lures now erecting, Brooklyn is second only to New York. Among the most remarkable is that recently completed by the Messrs Owing ton on the site of the one burned last Janua- ". Six stories in height, it. is at once the largest and finest building of its class in the country. The main floor is devoted to bric- a. brac, the entresol to silver; the staircase landing is expanded to a spacious picture gallery; the second contains all those pretty table furnishings, now considered SO necessa- ry, while the upper landing stage forms a crystal gallery, and still higher story is de- voted to dinner sets of every character, and to an art room, rich in bronzes and cera- mics, while yet above this garret filled with ancient furniture. Visitors crossing the bridge should not fail to come 8 few steps farther and visit this attractive building.

 The Committee on Ordinances held a meet ing in rooms 10 and II City Hall last evening, Alderman Law presiding. They first heard parties interested in the ordinance for the removal of all wooden sheds and stables in the First ward. The petition for such an ordinance came principally from lawyers oc cupying Whites block on Center street. MT. White, W. K. Townsend and others sp- peared in favor of such an order, while N. D. Sperry, George E. Hoadley, Charles Ruickoldt and others appeared in opposition.
 The committee voted in executive session to lay the matter on the table until the next meeting.
 Another proposed ordinance considered was that all permits for buildings outside the fire limits should be referred to the Board of Aldermen. This matter was referred to Chairman Law of the committee to draft an ordinance and report at the next meeting.
 The locating of expressmen on Center strest created considerable discussion. The expressmen had been given leave to stand on this street and parties who live on the street want them removed. After fully considering the matter it was laid over until the next meeting.
 Alderman Law referred to the communica tion from the Board of Public Works in re- gard to an ordinance requiring more uni form method of watering the streets. He thought the matter one that should be con- sidered, and after discussion it was laid on the table until the next meeting.
