room, to further consider the matter of
a street railway. Judging from the
published reports of the former meet
ing, there were undoubtedly some who
expected to hear our city officials de-
nounced for their "dead-and- alive
itiveness" in slch matters, but such, if
there were any, were disappointed. The
meeting held Friday night was of cool,
calculating business men, who woulG
never think Of denouncing city officials
or any class of citizens whose good will
was really necessary to the success of
their enterprise. The meeting was COM

reported 156 shares taken, amounting to

large number who expected to sab
scribe for stock as soon as they were
prepared to pay the requisite ten per
cent, and most of the stock would be
eagerly taken by residents on the streets
of the proposed railway. The COM
mittee were instructed to continue
their labors, and an adjournment was
taken until next Wednesday night at
Z O'Clock. Some other matters OF 8
local nature were informally discussed,
and it was sometime after an adjourn
