ducea d resolution of much the same nature and
this like Nfr Sullivan's passed without a dis
senting vote.
Alderman Diemer introduced resolution making
the heating Of horsecars mandatory The period OF
the wear was not mentioned. but the measure

Another appropriation of s25OOoO recommend
ed for the use of the Department of Parks in the
construction of roads and driveways
Alderman Donohue introduced a resolution recon-
rneniing the appropriation of $4,000 for the New
York Geological Society in The Bronx Park Alder
man Behrman opposed its adoption, declarlhg tilat
the appropriation unnecessary in view of the
fact that the society had received from the city
s250Go0 last May. Furthermore, said he. the So
ciety is so close a corporation that it was able to
change the route OF the rapid transit tunnel when
il was Intended to push It through the park thus
making the lire a mile and a half longer. Alder
man Donohue asked to be excused from voting.
Alderman Mccall opposed the motion and said
he was In favor Of having an investigation OF the
WAY in which the money voted the society had been
par
shown hv the reports OF the society, and that IL
cost money to support any such park. Those who
did not wish support grants for It's maintenance
he said id wish any such pleasure ground.
Alderman Mathews said he thought that IT was
ahoil4 time to call a halt and spend the Si5WG IN

get somewhere instead of spending IT for an ostrich
cage. -. - ..; -
