that the cutters on Grant road received
special attention from his men and were
swept every week. This he declared was not
done to any other county road in the Dis

Several matters relating to the city streets
were disposed of at the semi-monthly meet
ing of the city council last evening. A COM
munication was received from Superintend-
emit Colvin of the Washington, Alexandra
and Mount Vernon Railroad Company, re-
questing permission to raise the tracks of
the electric road on each side of Fayette
street to conform to the grade of the Rich
mond. Fredericksburg and Potomac road
After some discussion the petition was
granted temporarily. Mr.. Uhler then offered
a resolution directing the city engineer to
ascertain whether the tracks of the last
named road are above the proper level at
that point, which was referred.
The committee on light returned without
recommendation the ordinance offered by
Mr.. Brill at the last meeting, providing that
persons be permitted to use lncandescent
lights, with power supplied from the cleo
trio road, for decorating purposes on condi-
ton that they agree not to decrease their
committee thought it better to have each
request of that nature brought before coun-

Snowcen moved to recommit and the mo-
ton was lost On motion of Mr.. Spinks 1t
was laid on the table.
A petition from Policeman Sherwood for

unable to do duty By reason of injuries re-
ceved while engaged in his regular work
