NEW PEWIEY STATION.
Council Committee on Wharves
Considers the Proposal
TO GIVE UPa SLICG0F TIE WHARF
For Needed Additional Railway
TracEs-No Conclusion Reached,
and the Committee Will Inspect tho
Ground next Monday-one of tho
Ways out OF tho Dlftioulty that have
been Suggested.

Last evening the Council committee
On wharyes met again to consider the
proposal OF the p, W. & KY, Railway
Company to take slice of the north
end OF the city wharf to accommodate
additional tracks, necessitated by a
proposed new passenger station, City
Wharimaster John CrOCkard, City So
Icitor Robert White, Mr.. W. 2. Hub
hard, attorney for the railway company,
and Hon. Alfred Caldwell and Mr. j..
d. Ewing, attorneys for steamboatmen,
were also present, and Mr.. Dobblnss, In
addition to acting as q member oil tho
committee, represented the interest oil
the county commissioners.
The meeting was brought about by q
reference by Council to this committee
Of an official communication from the
county commissioners, representing
that the county is a large stockholder
in the railroad and that II is to the in
torest OF the community that tho new
station should be built, and asking that
the amended proposal Of the company
DO considered. After this communica.
ton had been read, a plat OF the ground
in question was exhibited and tho gen-
tlemcn present gathered about to dis
Cuss 1t.
There was the usual difference OF
opinion as to the effect OF the change.
Mr.. Crockard said that at river stage
above twenty-eight toet the encroach-
ment would be serious, apd II would in
teriere to some extent at any stage, oc-
Cupying space needed for piling freight.
Alter talking over tho situation Tor
some time, it was suggested that the
only way to reach an intelligent opinion
was to meet in daylight at the wharf
and look over the ground. There was
talk Of half dozen changes, but moth.
Ing definite in any Of them, The com
mittoe finally adjourned to meet Mon
day afternoon at 8 o'clock and inspect
the ground.
The retaining wall which the COM
pany desires to build is outside its
tracks, and extends from the proposed
new station 425 feet southwark, which
brings it to within eight feet OF the
north line OF the Windsor hotel alley
extended.
One idea was advanced which seemed
to offer a way out Of the difficulty.
This was that instead OF taking any part
OF the wharf tho railway company
should move its additional tracks east
ward. BY securing q strip of the lots
at the southeast corner OF Water and
Eleventh streets, tho city could give
the company the needed extra ground
of that part Of Water street between
the present passenger station and the
houses on tho cast side. The buildings
on that corner are old and rickety, aud
tits said are to be torn down this sum.
MGR anyhow. 10 move Water street at
the Junction OF Eleventh eastward ton
or fifteen feet there would much i'm
prove the grade OF Eleventh street, now
almost useles by reason OF it's steep-
ness, aud doubtless the needed strip
could be- bought at n reasonable price.
