Street Falls Through.

street II ais 1nrOug Oh.
The board of public works yesterday
confirmed the assessments for the grad
ing of Sixth street, from Commercial
street to Maria avenue, at the estimated
cost of S14, 1855.
E, In the matter of paving East Fourth
street, the whole of the proceedings
have dropped through. The engineers
estimate for the work was close upon
SO, 900, and after months OF negotiation
the property owners on one side of the
street who were opposed to the improve
ment finally declared themselves in
favor of it,on condition that the st. Paul
~ Duluth road, whose freight houses
are on the other side of the street, would
defray half the cost of the improve
ment. This the railroad company
agreed to do, and the proceedings
went through the regular routine of
the board of public works Office and the
council. Yesterday the board pro.
ceeded to open bids which had been adj
vertised for, but all were rejected. for
at the last moment letter was received
from General Manager Plough, of the
Duluth road, Notwithstanding the offer to
pay half the costof the improvement.
The board has for Two years consid-
cred that the paving of Fourth street
was absolutely necessary, for the road
is III fearful condition, but naturally
the property owners on one side of the
street objected to being assessed for the
total cost of the improvement, while the
railroad company on the opposite side
was exempt from assessment by state
law.
The board will report the matter to
the council and request that the final
order passed ordering the paving to be
carried out be annuled.
