 The railroad commissioners met President Watrous yesterday in regard to the proposed changes at the Chapel street railroad crossing near East street in this city and at Pardee's crossing in the Annex, where the late Wat rous I. Miller was killed by the cars. Ex. Governor Ingerson represented the town of New Haven at the hearing, as also Selectman Treat. It is proposed to have Center street go under instead of above the track in order to prevent further danger from accidents at that point. MT. Ingerson argued that the railroad should bear the whole expense of the change. MT. Watrous replied that the town was equally benefited and should in justice bear part Of the cost.
 At the Chapel street crossing, inst below East street, bridge is proposed. Mayor Holcomb, ex-Mayor Lewis and Mr. H. w. Crawford, of the Public Works Board, viz orously favored the bridge and MT. Isaac Anderson and MT. Baldwin, of the sawmill, as vigorously opposed it. Corporation Coun- sel Driscon handled the case for the city and called Engineer Hill, who testified as to the feasibility of the scheme which necessitates the lowering of the tracks.
