WANT MORE ADVICE ON
SH0Ck0E CREEK SEWER
of Fifteenth Street to Sixty Feet.
May Also Condemn Niaduct.

The committee on streets yesterday
afternoon reconsidered the resolution
sent back from the common council
directing the city attorney to acquire
by gift. purchase or condemnation
land to widen Fifteenth street to a
width Of so feet between Main and
Cary streets. On the motion OF Mr..
English, the committee voted to send
the matter back to the council with
the request that 1t be recommitted to
the administrative board for irfcrn1a-
ton.
The object OF the proposed widen
ing OF Fifteenth street Is TO enable the
city to defect Shockoe creek down the
Fifteenth street route to the James
river. thereby saving to the city. the
administrative board claims. perhaps
5000. The streets committee now
requests the board to inform them as
to where the sewer will begin to de-
fleet from Shockoe creek TO come into
Fifteenth street, and what will be the
approximate cost of right of way
On the motion of Mr.. sullivan. the
resolution providing for the acquiss~
ton of right of way for free passage
over the Marshall street viaduct was
laid on the table until the next meet
ing of the committee. At this time
the administrative board counsel for
the Railway and Power company and
the city attorney are requested to he
present for a consideration of the mat
ter. The city has made frequent ad-
vances to the Virginia Railway and
Power company. with view to open
ing the viaduct to traffic free OF toll,
and the company has failed TO comply
with the wishes OF the council. The
proposed measures to force this right
of way, are now being taken.
The committee consented TO the re-
quest OF the Southern railway to ex-
tend its spur track from Davenport
alley over Fifteenth street through to
the property owned by Antrim &c CO.,
on the southwest corner of Fifteenth
and Cary streets, and instructed the
city attorney to draft suitable ordi-
nance for this purpose. The paper
will he referred to the council at its
next meeting. with recommendation
for adoption.
