Two yetoes, which Mayor Sanderson
wrote at the close of the year and held
back because he did not desire to be over
ridden by the outgoing Board of Super
vsors, were read and passed to prinl. The
first veto objected to the granting of privi-
leges to Henry M0tfatt aud Harry c. Somers
for dispostug oil garbage. The reasons of
the objection were that there is nothing IN
the franchise that binds the grantee TO the
performances OF any of its requirements;
that the city is not 10 receive cent from
the profits that would accrue TO the CON-
pany holding the franchise, and that many
Eastern cities derive large revenue from
their garbage and sweepiDgs.
The second message from the retired
Mayor was a veto of the order granting to
Eugene lie Roy and associates franchise
to construct railroad upon ID, First avenue
aud Powell street. The objections to the
franchise are that it is am biguous, and
there IS nothing to show whether the inten-
ton IS that the grantees shall have the right
to run for one block, five blocks or twenty
blocks upon either of the streets named.
"Such legislation as this" says Mr.. Sander
SOB, In my Judgment, cannot but be PERM
cious. Street-railr0ad operators are reach
ing out for every main thOroughfare in the
city. Conflicts between rival companies on
the same street are constantly occurring,
and the least that should be insisted upon
in making any new grant should be that IL
should be de finite and certain in the specif-
cation of the privileges awarded. so as not 10
leave ID open TO any double construction"
