&. That the citizens living along tho line
of Seventh street, from New York avenue

cent action of District commissioners in
granting permission TO the Western
Union Telegraph Company to erect q
line Of poles on that street was fully
demonstrated in the large aud indignant
meet ny held n, Myers's Hall last evon-
ing. Mr.. Il, G. Hewitt was called to the
chair. The object of tho meeting was
then stated by Mr.. Stone, who declared
| that the matter was one not only
OF local interest, but ono in which
| the welfare of tho whole COM
munity was concerned, The reason
for the bitter stand taken by tho resi-
dents of Seventh street was that the
poles should bo removed from other
streets and placed in front Of their prop
erty which would suffer rs much thereby
as had the property of the residents OF
the streets upon which the poles are at
present. Rev. VIM. Barries also spoke
very bitterly against the commissioners
proposed action. A committee was ap-
pointed for tho collection of money to
defray the expenses Of the suit, and quite
a handsome sum was subscribed last even.
