ciates for Quick Action.

said should be acted upon al an carly

tension Of the avenue southwark, because
until that was done the exact route could
not be laid out. 1t was finally decided

sion that the other commissioners were
going to vote for the order, too, and he
did not see why there should be any FUR
Their delay.

was issued. He admitted that the railway
companies might he putting in Irrelevant
testimony, but said they would appeal 10
