GRAND AVENUE SEWER

The Large New Sewer to be Built
 From Bradley to East Street-PubI1c
 Months Job.
 The city begins the work directly of build ing new sewer in place of the old one on Grand avenue, from Bradley to East streets. It will be necessarily large sewer and the work will occupy several months and travel in that direction will be impeded considera- ply as natural result. Whether the horse railroad company will be allowed to lay and use a temporary track for the public accom- modation is not yet decided. President Ives, when seen by reporter last evening, said ''We want to take up the old tracks where the new sewer is to come and lay tenn pora- ry track so that our patrons will thereby avoid changing cars at that point and walk ing two or three hundred feet. Our Fair Haven patrons are now obliged to change cars and walk some distance owing to the new sewer being laid on Grand avenue from Atwater street to Clinton avenue, and they have been thus inconveniencedf for number oi weeks. The passengers where that sewer work is have to walk from 200 to 300 feet in changing cars, and the Fair Haven people naturally revolt at the idea of being obliged to change cars second time and a second time have to walk 200 or 300 feet. The rail. road company wants and proposes to lay a temporary track from East street to Bradley street, and are ready and willing to so do for the accommodation of the public, and espe- ciall' for their Fair Haven patrons, who con- stitute large portion of the patrons of the road. Of the travel on the Fair Haven & Westville horse railroad three ffths of it comes from east of State street. We do not propose to have passengers change twice if we can avoid it, and as I said, we propose to obvi- ate the difficulty by laying a temporary track over the distance between the points named. We have applied to the proper authorities on the subject and have not yet been no tiied of the decision in the case. If it is favorable we shall proceed with all promptness and dispatch to lay the temporary track. The work of building the sewer in question will occupy from two to three months. Inspec- tor Dillon thinks it will occupy about three months, and people do not want to be put to the serious inconvenience which must eEsue if our application is denied"
