A new and powerful organization, aim

Association and is composed only of prop

tracks. Father Gil,e has Interested him

future is predicted for it.
For months property owners north o1
the Erie tracks have been complaining
that their property has not advanced il
value with the SAME rapidity
as that of other sections of the
city. They think this is because
their interests have been neglected not
only by the city officials but by them.
selves. They complain that their property
is being made dumping ground for the
sewers OF the Hill. They want
some of the streets north OF
the Railroad opened up to the Hill. and
they intend having it done If time, energy
and money will accomplish that end
They are cut of at present, they say
from all access to the Hill. and theiI
streets are but paths extending from the
water front to Jersey avenue.
The new association is headed by Mr.
Patrick Connolly and from him emanates
the determination to have some of the
streets opened to the HILL On Grand
