THE BOARD OF ASKED TO GRANT RIGHT OF WAY FOR RAILWAY On Ontario Street From William To Gore -- Question of Excavations In the Streets. The Board of Works at ita meet- ing on Tuesday afternoon was wait- ed upon by the manager of the King- ston Shipbuilding company, who ask- ed that the city grant a right of way for the building of tracks from the G,T.R., line at the foot of Wil- liam Btreet, along Ontario street and down Gore Into the government dry- dock property. He also askel thal 'he cost of excavating and the binid ing a retaining wall 200 feet long be horne by the city. One or two of the members ex presseal themselves as rather oppos ed to recommending that the city pay any part of the cost. They thought that the right of way would bs. quite a big enough concession. The ily. engineer and the city so licitor were instructed to report tc the board as to the cost of the con struction and as to the legal points. The board will further conside: the question of securing the neces sary land for the extension of Cowdy street to Stephen. It did not come to a decision with regard to pur chasing the parfly constructed house and lot owned by R. Wallace. It is likely a forty-foot street will be lald out. The resolution of Ald, Nickle with the | regard to a re-organization of city engineer's department was laid over until a decision is reached in connection with the question of street excavations. It is desirable that all excavations should be made under the direction of the city en- mineer, - When this matter is settled between thé Board of Works and the Utilities Commission, then a report, as asked for by Ald. Nickles resolu- tion, which passed council, will be submitted. The matter will be taken up with the Utilities Commission which, it is understood, is willing that the city engineer's. department should undertake all Utilities exca- vation work, and charge the cost of the same to the commission. A report is to be made to the city council with regard to the reason why the contract awarded last sum- mer to Foley & Gleason for the paving of Princess street, from Clergy to Barrie, was not carried out. The chairman said he would shoulder the blame, if there was anything of that kind to be should- ered. firm gave him to understand that it was in no hurry to start the work, but would certainly complete it this season. He delayed the signing of the contract in an endeavor to get the street railway to lay heavier rails and new ties. One time he thought there was a good chance of this being done, but finally word came from the street railway autho- rities: "Nothing doing." After that, Foley and Gleason, for some reason or other, decided that they would not take the contract. "What he did he considered he was doing in the best interests of the city, and Ald. Fair " backed up the chairfnan in this con- tention. Ald. Sutherland wanted to know why the report was desired, Ald. O'- Connor replied that he supposed the alderman who asked for it wanted to keep the pot boiling and to stir up the Board of Works. In attendance at the meeting were Alds. Litton (chairman), Fair O'- Connor and Sutherland. An Early Curfew. Following out the curfew by-law the bell in the city hall is now sound- ed at eight o'clock instead of at nine o'clock. Mayor Shaw's idea was to have the "kiddies" indoors by dark. Some of them scamper off home When the bell rings, but there are others who do not take any notice of it.
