Delay was Caused by Discussion
as to Whether Macadam Was
a Pavement or Not.

The slight difficulty which Inns do
layed the work on the paving of Smith
street, from State to High, with as
phalt, has been removed, and the con-
tract signed, and work will probably
be commenced very shortly.
The difficulty, which is claimed by
several to have never in fact existed,
was in regard to the re-assessment of
the property owners for asphalt when
they bad once been assessed for the
present macadam pavement.
When two of tho aldermen were
seen, this morning. they said that
they expected the work to proceed
rapidly from the start, which is ex-
pected soon.
City Attorney Hommann said that
the contract had been signed, and that
he expected the contractors, Jones &
Meehan. of Boston, to ooommence work
within short time. He dIselaimed
all knowledge of any opposition to the
assessment of the taxpayers for the
imDroyement.

QUESTION is WHERE
TO PUT STEAMER.
Contractors are Rushing Work on the New Houses
in Hope that All WILDE Ready in Time Chair
man Stacey Has it Figured Out

The contractors on the several new
fire houses ana extension are being
urged to complete the work as ex-
peditiously as possible. in prepafation
for the receipt of the two engines. An
acute puzzle has develupedin regard
to the housing of the steamers upon
their arri val, and, pending the latter
event, Chairman Stacey, Of the special
committee, is much -harrassed man
in an endeavor to provide suitable
quarters for the machines.
AS told in yesterday g News, il was
announced at the council meeting.
Monday night, tnat letter had been
sent to the manufacturers requesting
them to hold one Of tho STEAMERS for
a few weeks. pending the completion
of one or two of tile buildings now
under way.
No reply has as yet been received
by Mr. Stacey relative TO the above
request. Although the cost OF ship
ping both engines at one time would
be considerably less than that Of
shipping each of them separately. II is
believed that the company will aecede
to the municipal request, and mid the
COMMITTEES in their search for soIu-
tion of the difficulty now confronting
them. The eighty day limit for the
delivery of the engines is practically
at an end, but, should the company
hold one or both OF the steamers pur-
suant to a written request, theysssoan
not be held to the eighty day clause
in their contract. v
Work was, this morning started on
the moving of the sbed IN the renr Of

Dennison has rushed the completion Of
the Washington Hose Company house

together with the starting ut !, 'rk On
the new Mcclellan house on appor

have the new quarters in shape and
ready for occupancy at as early date
as possible. Taking into consideration
the fact that the present Washington
house on Water street can also be used
to accommodate hose or combination
