PRAISES AHEARN'S ACTION.
Vesey Street Business Mems Association
Thinks He Did Good Work.

A statement relative 10 the removal of sthe un-
used tracks in Nesey street and a report 1t by
the Citizens Union Bureau of City Betterment was
given out yesterday by the Nesey Street Business
Mems Association. II said:
The present refusal of a Supreme Court Justice
permanently enJOin the Borough President from
tea ring up the tracks in Nesey street which
the railway company made preJence of run
ing cars resulted in their removal by the bureau
of highways
It 0he bureau reporD does not tell why the
judge refused make il permanent. why IL
before him. 1t does not answer the purpose
of the party getting up the report to enlighten
the public about the removal. Tne merchants do
ing business in Vesey street wrote to the Borough
President, describing the annoyance and loss caused
by the unused tracks in the street, and requesting
him to have them taken before paving the street
with wood. He wrote back that the Injunction ia
the Amsterdam avenue prevented him from
removing them.
AS President Ahearn convinced that
he had the power 10 remove the tracks he started
10 do IL. Immediately he served with an in
junction restraining him from removing the tracks
remaining i'm the street. When the case de-
clded against the railroad company the tracks were
taken up.
The bias, which Is s clearly shown I'm the mart
or The report which refers TO the removal the
tracks by President Ahearn. throws doubt on the
whole

the Quakers got the deciding tally and won by the
score of goals To /.
PENNSYLVANIA drew first blood In the opening pc
rod, the ball being funbied in front OF Columbias
goal after which it shot in sharply about 20
feet from the outside right This ended the scOr-
ing until half time Columbia evened up matters
after the restart. Hartog, at centre forward.
passed accurately Dwyer at inside left. and the
latter during a miX-up before the succeeded in
forcing the ball across the line off his body. Both
sides struggled zeaOusy for the odd point there
after. but fortune eventually smiled upon the ef-
forts Of the mon from Philadelphia. A combination
play. which carried the ball from outside right 20
inside right and from there to the centre forward,
resulted in the second Pennsylvania goal being
scored. The halves were OF thirty-fve minutes
each.
Columbia has decided forfeit the remaining
