Opposes use of Holt Street.

A petition to the Street Committee OF
the Common and Select Councils is be-
ing circulated. 1t is being numerously
signed by residents of Holt street and
others specially interested in that
street anu prays that no permission be
given to any railroad company to run
OH that street.
The objections urged are that a rail-
road on that street would impair
values; that there are number Of
costly churches on the street; that
there is q school for boys. one for girls
and Girls Orphan Asylum on the
street. and that the lives OF children at
this asylum, at ST. Mary's asylum.
near by the pupils of the schools men
toned and pupils of the High school,
who Use this street, would be endanger-
ed. II is also urged that Holt street
is too narrow for such uses, and Tint
the use of Holt street bridge by the
railroad company would entail n heavy
expense on the city for Its proper main
tenance.
The petition is evidently aimed at the
Chesapeake Transit Company, that in
tended to lay its tracks through Will
liams street to the tracks of the Nor
folk and Atlantic railroad.
The change OF route that now arouses
objection was suggested by the Bram-
bleton Local Improvement Board
