CHANGES AS
TO ROUTE
OF TUNNEL

Chairman Kendrick again presided at
another meeting OF the joint special COM
mittee on railroad legislation held at the
city hall. yesterday afternoon, and the
only absentee was Alderman Mccarthy.
The committee spent three hours con-
sidering various amendments to the sub
stitute bill for the construction of a tun-
mel 20 the East Side and the amendments
were I'm line with those suggested at the
recent hearings I'm the city hall and at
the state house.
One amendment stipulates that all the
money raised shall be expended in Provi-
dence county, and arother that the west
or down town portal OF the tunnel shall
be at least 50 feet north OF Thomas street.
This would take the tunnel mouth away
from the immediate vicinity OF the First
Baptist Meeting house. Both OF these
amendments were approved by Attorney
Buckland. representing the New York.
New Haven and Hartford Railroad COM
pany.
Furthermore, Mr.. Buckland expressed
himself in favor OF the greater part OF the
amendments. but there were some things
on which II was necessary for him to
confer with President Melen, and he left
last evening for New Haven for that
purpose.
The committee will report TO the oIty
council on Monday evening at the regular
meeting OF the latter body. and will
recommend that the city solicitor go be-
fore the legislature to advocate the pass
age OF tunnel bill with certain amend
ments as safeguards.
