City Engineer Boiling offered -four
suggestions In favor of his proposed
route. The grade of Virginia street
between Gillian and Marshall, he
says, as now established, would have
to be changed where the railway
crosses, hut this could be done with
out serious damage to anyone. The
grading on Orleans street is insig-
nificant, the only criticism being that
the grade between Erin and Gillian
is ST per cent. The curve along the
ravine to Marshall street is slight
Where the line crosses Virginia street
a slight fill would have to be made
but the Virginia street surface water
can be carried under the fill by pipes
At Grade Now.
Union street to Williamsburg ave
nue. is practically at grade now. and
the railroad would enter WILLIAMSBURG
avenue about $50 feet east of Battery
street on level ground and outside OF
the heavy traffic that enters Williams
burg avenue at Tenth steret.
In the return line the railroad would
enter Virginia and Taylor streets and
follow along Virginia TO Union on
easy grade The grades for the route
are good, and the cost for excavation
would be slight
Objection to the route along VIII
liamsburg avenue as suggested by the
railway company lies in the fact that
there would be expensive grading. and
because Malone street, along which

The Third Route.
The third route. known as the RIA
vine route, begins at Louisiana and
Gillian streets. with a double track
along Gillian to Orleans, thence on a

Mr., Boiling objected to this because

is 40 feet and the grade az per cent.
The grade on the curve along the ra-
