Several matters of importance are
meeting tomorrow night-among them
Mayors veto of the Sunday closing or
dinance, passed by both branches of
the Council At the January meetings..
The Mayor vetoed the ordinance be-
cause of Its alleged too drastic pro-
visions. Another matter of interest
will be the pending resolution, offered
by President o. w. MattoN, to reject
entire the report of committee assess
ing damages to abutting property on
River Street, resulting from the pro-
posed raising OF the grade OF that
street, and to adopt a different plan
hung up in the court by reason OF
suits brought by owners OF property
who are dissatisfied with the amount
of damages allowed BY the committee
The street will be improved under the
new plan. 4 storm sewer will be laid
to prevent overflow by freshets in the
river, but damages will be avoided.
The report of the committee submit
ting n plan for numbering the houses
OF the city Is expected to come up for
consideration. The plan involves NJ
cost of about $4,000, TO be borne by
the city.
The Mayor has several times recon-
mended that the Council adopt meas
OF the law relative to the licensing OF
dogs, and tho impounding and killing
of those unlicensed. 1t Is probable that
some action will be taken on this sub
ject The finance committee, IL Is I'M

ports or recommendations to make to-
