tion.
The special committee on the third

mend a plan for a six-room building.
with a hall, similar TO the building
erected or Manton avenue. On this
matter also lively discussion is looked
for. The report OF the commissioner or
public works submitting plans and es-
Inmates for new street from Market
square to Prospect street, will proba-
bly, be taken from the table and sent
TO the highway committee for careful
consideration. The disposition is to
favor the building OF the surface road
from South Water or South Main street
over TO Benefit street, coming out in
church, the cost Of the viaduct plan
being considered too great.
