ing to the Fort.

An ordinance will be introduced in
the assembly shortly calling for a bond
issue of 100000 for the naeadamizing
Of West Seventh street from Tuscarora
to Fort Smelling. 1t will follow a pre-
Hninary order calling for the work.
''The bond issue would be asked for
right away" said Peter Van Hoven, of
the board of public works, yesterday.
but some of the property owners want
a part of the street boulevarded, and
want to wait until the park board can
be consulted regarding the planting Of
trees. Some persons are under the i'm
preston that the proposed bond issue
IS in doubt because of the defect In
the law which authorizes the issuance
of 100000 worth of general bonds, but
1t is not. This is a special act, and
has no connection whatever with that
measure.
To macadamize and boulevard the
street will cost nearly SIS 600. Nearly
every one of the property owners favor
the Improvement, and little trouble is
expected in securing the issuance of
bonds permitted by the law.
