Quite q surprise was sprung IN the
Board sof Aldermen last night. when,
by u vote OF four to three, that body
irafused to concur In the action of the
city Assembly with reference to the
acknowledgement application Of Messrs.
| Gill Brothers for certain privileges.
1t will be remembered that after a
stiff fight the Assembly passed q reso-
d. permit to Gill Brothers allowing
them to erect a woodward, shed ana
engine ouse at the corner of Ninth
and McDonough Streets.
II was thought that the fight would
be continued before the Board last
night, but such was not the case. The
matter was acted upon without u word
for or against the proposition.
Tie Assembly took the question en-
tirely out Of the hands Of the Fire
Committee, and this evidently had con-
siderable weight with the Board. JUST
what step the ellis will take now Is
not known, but It Is thought that
conference committee will he asked LOT.
