THE TERMlNALW WON.
CONTINUED from Fourth Page. |

Does that cover Your resolution Mr.
Ankle shook his head in a mournful way,
and the Chair then directed that Mr.
Ankles motion be put. That was done.
and the resolution was defeated
The Chair-It is understood that these
maps can't go to Baltimore until after TO-
nights meeting of Council,
MIR. Brandfass-No, sir.
The Chair-What next.
Mr.. Faris-We have closed up that prop
0SltlOn. | move that we now take up the
Terminal Company ordinance.
This motion was put, and carried, and
the Chair announced that the papers
were before the committee.
Mr. Brandfass-In view of the action
just taken, think, in justice to the city
this matter ought 10 be postponed. II
there is no chance Of treating with the Bal.
timore and Ohio Company, see no reason
why everything the Terminal Company
wants should not be granted, but if the B.
X o. Company will move, there will be
some objection TO part Of that ordinance.
Mr.. w. u. Hubbard-At last nights ses-
sion some suggestions were made and
seemed to be agreed to, and l have endeav-
ored TO put them in shape. After they are
considered, | suggest that this ordinance
ought to go TO Council, where vote could
be had, and if it differed with the majority
OF this committee then there might be q
chance for US 10 go ON.
Mr.. Hubbard read the resolution UNI
der which the committee was acting,
and proceeding said:
Council may come 10 the conclusion that
this Committee hasn't done what il was
told TO do; il may think that the time OF
a. ~ I ,,,1.
Council ought 10 be given Il chance TO say
whether this work is 10 20 on or not. This
Committee, so far, has done nothing. II
hasn't found out anything. Can any mem
Der Of this Committee say what the Balti-
more i Ohio Company will do! Let us &c
on and DO what all the members of this
Committee concede ought 10 be done. Does
anyone think that if the Baltimore X Ohio
Company wanted TO really do anything, il
would not have 4 committee of It's Board
of Directors here if Mr. King has not the
authority empowered 10 accept what the
city had TO offer! Council ought not TO be
prevented from doing anything. That
body ough; not TO be deprived of passing Z
measure after il is in shape. We ask the
Committee 70 pass these amendments; get
this ordinance in shape, and send II &c
Council.

Hubbard is very anxious 10 cover up the in
tentions Of this committee to get the tracks
on Sixteenth and Seventeenth streets, and
he undertakes 10 lecture this committee in
way which is not right. This committed
will not do anything against the interests OF
the Terminal Company, but think II ought
70 defer action on this ordinance for short
time. | don't think Mr.. Hubbard's remarks
are called for.
Mr.. HUBBARD did not intend 10 take
any advantage of the committee. I've SAID
nothing about Sixteenth and Seventeenth
streets. WHAT | complain OF IS this com
mittee holding back the Bridge and Ter
miual Company'S ordinance. AL we ask IS
that the ordinance so 10 Council. would
like TO offer some amendments to the ordi-
nauce-not amendments OF the Company
but 10 merely put in shape the suggestions
Of the committee. don't suppose it's i'm
portant, but we desire 10 keep these little
things straight as we 90 along
Mr.. Hubbard then read amendments,
covering the disturbing OF water and
gas pipes and sewers, giving the com
pany five years time in which TO com
plete the work, to provide for litigation.

The Committee was then asked b!
Mr.. Hubbard what it was going to do
and he begged them to report the ordl
nance to Council with recommendation
that il pass. unless Council saw fit TO Sc
/ il aside in favor of the Il. II o. PROPOSE
ton. Upon that there was long an'
wordy war, during which Mr. Arkl'
pointed out that the Committee, in vo
ting down his resolution, had virtual.
rejected the ordinance. Finally Mr.
BrandfaSs moved resolution. embrac
