BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS.

MT. DriscOll Has . Pr0pOsitiOn-Plans
 for the New Rock Lane Bridge
 Adopted-IncOnven to the West
 Haven Horse Car Road.
 The board of public works met last night and the members signed large stack of bills. Ex-Corporation Counsel Drisooll with large roll under his arm appeared and pro- oeeded to show plan of the new street just below Bristol street. and which may be called Driscoll avenue MT. Driscoll, on behalf of himself and other owners of property on that street, had proposition by which the own CTS would pay for 8 sewer there, but that the city would have to build about 300 feet on Ashmun street to make it connect with the Bristol street sewer. Mir. Driscoll explained that the new street had been paid for entirely by the property owners on it and that several houses were under way of building. He con- sidered the change had put money in the city treasury, as from the tax assessment of COW pasture 1t would be changed next year to 8 tax of twenty or thirty times that amount. granted. He said that they asked the city to lay the sewer on Ashmun street, as there were so many property owners there that no arrangements could be made with them to build it without expense to the city. The matter was referred to the committee on sewers.
 plan of the new Rock Lane bridge, which had been shown at previous meet ing, was adopted. The city engineer was instructed to make plans and specifications for the abutments and advertise for bids. There is enough money appropriated for the construction of the bridge, so it was decided that only the abutments be put up this year. The cost of the bridge will be $l1 ,000 be- tween $5,000 and $6,000 of which must go for the abutments. The appropriation so far is $7,500.
 The West Haven horse car railroad was given permission to lay transfer track on Howard avenue during the construction of the sewer between Portsea street and the Howard avenue bridge.
 On motion of Commissioner Whitney it was voted that two new sets of jaws for the new stone crusher be secured If the Blake company will take back the old sets at fair price.
 Acting City Engineer Ferry was instructed to see that the danger to passengers on the West Haven horse cars caused by the sewer ditch close to the track on Howard avenue be remedied
 Bids for the top dressing and curbing of the sidewalk on the Green from Trinity church to Court street were opened and re- ferred. Terrence Brady was the lowest bid- der, at 124 cents per square foot.

Some Facts About the New Haven

FOStmASt6fsh1pe
 Some of the rumors which have been foat- Ing about concerning the postofice in this city seem to have no foundation. The facts of the ease are as follows: The appointment of Mr. Sperry as postmaster was decided on some time ago. Both senators of this State and others of the powers that be conourred in his selection. There has been no attempt to bring about any other result, and the ground has been SO completely covered by MT. Sperry and his supporters that any such effort would have had very poor show for success. Concerning the time when MT. Sperry will enter upon the duties of post master there is now little doubt that Post- master English will be permitted to serve out his term.
