COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS.
Regular Fortnightly Meeting Of the
CITY Fathers.

At the meeting of the city council
held last evening the following business
was transacted:
Petition OF Carlson Bros. for a re-
tail liquor license referred to commit.
tee on health and police.
A remonstrance from property hold
ers on irving avenue requesting that
the present grade on that avenue be-
tween Thirty-fifth and Thirty-ninth
streets be not changed was referred
to the street committee.
A Representation signed by the prin-
cipal property owners interested IN
the Improvement of Exchange street
between Fourteenth and Seventeenth
streets strongly opposed the use of
plank in such Improvement holding
that rock would be much more advis-
able as being permanent and making
better street. They also object to
such Improvement being attempted in
the winter, for obvious reasons, and
asking that the improvement be de-
ferred until spring. The remonstrance
