Granite or Trap Rock For Meadow

 The committee of conference of the Boards of Councilmen and Aldermen in ref erence to the Meadow street pavement held a meeting last evening. The opinion of the two Boards is divided on the subject between a pavement of granite blocks and one com posed of trap rock. Engineer Hill appeared and answered the questions put to him. Ac- cording to the engineers opinion the granite pavement will give better satisfac- tion, being more smooth for vehicles.

Continuation of Edwards Street.

The city now owns the land required for the extension of Edwards street from Whit ney avenue to Prospect street. The owners of the Hillhouse property have neatly fenced their property along the dividing line on the south side of the street. The grading of the extension of the street is matter to be con- sidered by the Common Council some day, though it will not probably be done for sev- eral years to come owing to the expense which will attend the work, there being so extensive a rise of ground between Whitney avenue and Prospect street. The extension connects State street almost directly with the Winchester armory and Dixwel avenue, and the opening of the street will be necessity sometime. One reason therefor is that there is no cross street at present between Whitney avenue and Prospect street, from Sachem's Lane to Gamer street (recently opened), distance of about three-quarters of mile. Before the opening of Gamer street the space was unbroken from Sachems Lane to Highland street, distance of about a mile. Highland street is the street on which St. Francis orphan asylum is situated. The extension of Edwards street would make direct communication between two important and contiguous thickly settled portions of the city now widely separated.
