teenth Street is Considered

OAKLAND, Oct. 9.-When the ordi-
nance granting to the Southern Pacific
company a franchise for the Oakland
mole and additional water front space
is brought before the city council to-
morrow evening for final passage, sew
eral minor amendments probably will
be incorporated. These were consid-
cred at conferences between Mayor
Mott. members of the council and board
Of public works and representatives of
the Southern Pacific company The chief
amendment viii be one providing for
crossing for Fourteenth street over
the railroad right Of way.
The Key Route. in accepting fran
clise from the city, agreed to extend
3 street. Thirty street and
Fourteenth street from their present
terminus TO the bulkhead line or
through the Key Route tidelands. Four
teenth street now does not cross the
Southern Pacific tracks at the bay
shore, and the conferences were held
chiefly TO agree upon a crossing. 1t is
likely that the Southern Pacific COM
pany viii consent to make an overhead
street crossing for Fourteenth.
Other amendments which it is known
viii be proposed are Of lesser import
ance, being corrections of provisions
in which conflict or ambiguity occurs.
