COLLARD STREET
OPENING.
Street and Water Board
Listens to Arguments for
and Against the I'm
provement.
ERIE RAILROADS. PROTEST
Representative Says the
Street Will Interfere With
Plans Which Property
Owners Desire.
ERIE RAILROADS. PROTEST

AT the meeting of the Street and
Water Commissioners yesterday after
noon at the City Hall. Representative
Bell of the Erie Railroad appeared be-
fore the Board and made strong pro-
test to that body, which was sitting as
the whole. against the opening of Cohard
street, in the northern section of the city,
between Laidlaw and Beacon avenues.
Property owners in that section of the
city have long complained to the Board
that il the above mentioned thorough
fare was cut through at this section it
would greatly improve it. These owners
were represented by Mr.. David Berg
mann and Mr.. Peter johnson. The prop
erty owners have complained for a long
time that the street should be improved.
This tract is now used as a street,
but is composed of vacant lots. Mr..
Bergmann and Mr. Johnson are the own
ers of the property that is being used
for street purposes and they claim they
are anxious to have the street cut
through and expressed their willingness
to pay the assessment for it. Former City
Attorney John Wahl Queen, who urged
their claims, in speaking to the Board,
said
The final assessment map for this inn
provemnt has heen fled and the Board
has not vet concurred in it and we think
the city should go ahead. The railroad
can easiiy~ssnd property AT some other
point as well as here My clients own
this property and want the improvement,
as do the other owners in the vicinity.
The people Of this section have always
made a cut through these lots and it
has been understood for a long time that
the street was to be improved This idea
was supported by the partial improve
ment of both ends of the street, and
there would seem to be good reason for
the realization of the expectations of the
people thereabouts."
Mr.. Bell, in protesting against the
street being opened, said that the Erie
is opposed to it because plans are being
drawn and other work being done for
the cutting away of the tunnel roof at
that point and that the improvement
would interfere with its work and delay
it for years.
''The Erie Company has planned for a
long time to convert the present right of
way under the Hill into d cut, said Mr..
Bel, fan Improvement chat will be most
beneficial tor everyone concerned. Now
If this street is cut through it takes away
the possibility of our placing such yards
there and thereabouts as we have plan
ned. This Board mnst realize that the
cut would be to the interest of the city
and of the property owners. We have
gone so far with the preparations that
we thought of beginning the work in the
spring and we will do SO unless we are
hampered. A canvass of the property
owners affected has been completed at
last and shows we can 60 ahead without
opposition. But there is required such
