The subject of stopping the Front street
cable line in order 10 allow Of the construc-
ton of the sewer. was again taken up By
the house of delegates. Delegate Shields
asked what objection there could be TO al
lowing the line 10 run from Queen Anne
10 Union street.
nr. kioeber replied that the transfer OF
passengers from the cable line to the cleo
trie line could not be arranged without the
consent of the receiver and he refused TO
make such arrangement. Or. kioeber
thought the work could just as well be
done at night. but Delegate Carlisle replied
that IL could not and that to agree to
what was asked was surrender TO the
railroads. 1t was stated that the work
could be quite we'll done from Cherry
street south without interfering with the
road.
DR. Kloeber said nobody could promise
how long IL would take as the material
could not be procured in the city. The
brick, IT obtained in the city, must be
burned yet. and that will take time. He
appealed 10 the house not 20 put to such
great inconvenience hundreds OF men who
must be at their work by u : and O'Clock

must be done, even at Inconvenience to a
portion of the people. Ii occurred to him.
however. that If the cars ran for fex
hours each day Il would be very little
trouble To cover the slots with boards and
so prevent the eonduits being filled up.

road weTe shu: down all the rripFnen and
conductors would be thrown out Of work
Delegate Cook considered that the wark
could he done lust rs Weli at night as IN
