NEAR,S|DE RULE
WILL DIE TODAY
Board of Works Will Rescind
Obnoxious Ordinance at This
Afternoons Meeting.

Within the next few days the near
side trolley stop will have passed
into oblivion, and the travelling pub
lie will not be forced to plow through
mud and slush in boarding and get
ting off trolley cars
The Board Of Works at its meeting
this afternoon will pass upon third
and final reading the amendment to
the present traffic regulations, abol-
ishing the ''near-side' stop which has
been found obnoxious.
The amendment was introduced by
Commissioner Gillen at last weeks
meeting. and by a suspension of the
rules passed upon first and second
reading. Now it is up for final pass
age.
Ever since he "near-side" rule
went into effect on January |, there
has been continual howl from the
public generally, Everyone wanted

effect at the solicitation of the police
department, but it has not worked
out as satisfactorily as was expected
The amendment reads Ito go into
effect Immediately" but ii will prob-
ably be several days before its en-
forcement win be insisted upon by
the board. As explained by Commis-
sioner Gillen. the change will affect
nearly the entire system of the Pub

pected to put it into effect in a day.

The board will also take up the
next bylaws which affect in a large
measure the entire Board of Works
system. isasmuch as number of i'm
portant changes are provided. One
important change is the shearing of
the power of the chief engineer, who
has heretofore been head of the en-
tire system.
Under the new bylaws, which are
expected to be adopted without OPP
position, the engineering and account
ing divisions are separated, thereby
dividing the responsibility. Under
the present order the engineer is con-
sdered the head of the department,
including the accounting division.
The present aim is to make the
accounting division a separate de-
partment, and under the head of the
cashier. Other minor changes are also
provided.
