Standard specifications for granite
block paving was agreed upon yester-
day at a conference of municipal en-
gineers and granite block makers, held
in the Hotel Belmont. in Manhattan, on
the invitation OF City Engineer Morris

those present will be laid before a
similar conference of the American
Society for Municipal Improvement, to
be held this month in Chicago.
The plan of yesterdays meeting was
TO adopt a uniform standard for the
blocks so that better material might
be furnished by the manufacturers at
the same or less cost. 1t was decided
that the depth of the block should be
five inches, the width from 80 to Az
inches, the length s inches, the blocks
to make a joint of not greater than
half an inch in width at the top and
an inch at the bottom. In addition
the face of the block must come within
one-quarter of an inch of any point
on a straight-edge laid on its surface.
A subcommittee was appointed to
draft a form of specifications. The
members are Mr.. Sherrerd, John c.
Sheridan, city engineer of Brooklyn;
{. II. Rust, city engineer of Toronto.
and two granite block manufacturers.
George w. Tillson, chief engineer of
the bureau of highways, Manhattan.
