Mr. Whurcat mild tlint th Southorn Pnclllc only reel veil ? 10 per year rontnl for tho nico track. C. H. Poclc In bohnlf of tho other proporly owners on Fourth Htreot, enlcl that ownorH of about :i,10l) front foot had signed tho petition for opening tho Rtrcot. Ho Raid that of tho total 0,100 foot, tho Southorn Pnclllc owned all oxcopt thin and possibly 700 foet. Ho said that tho fact that Southern Pnclllc owned all of tho froiitnKO botwoon Kruso uvon uo and Coal Hank Inlet would uiako It difficult to Ret It Improved If It van not decided on now. Ho said that the council heretofore had fol lowed the precedent, of granting tho wIrIioh( of u majority of tlm property ownorH and that tlioy wished a through Htreet to Coal Hank Inlet no that a bridge could bo built neross tho property beyond that opened up. llo said that In tho natural course of things, the section would bo soon built up and that It was on IV fair to nfford them Bt roots. However, In view of the fact that tho race track lonso had three years to run, ho Bald that tho property owners on the stroot wore willing to compromise and that If the council would order tho whole Improvement, they would bo willing that tho Im provement between Kruno avenue mid tho fair ground be deferred un til then, lie said the old buildings nnd Improvements were In a bad way and would bo worthless then nnd at any rate, that section would bo tilled up by the dredge. Ho said that It whs possible that tho South orn Pnclllc was holding tho whole matter back In order to use tho coun try nlong Coal Hank Inlet or torml nnl Krounds. lie said that the prop erty between Kruso avenue and Coal Hank Inlet was owned by a very few people and that It would ho dllllcult to force It through. City Attorney Cosh said that ho did not think the council could bind itsolr three yours hence by any such HKrccnu'iit. Mr. Peek said that while It might not bo binding, It would bo across Coal Hank Inlet replanked bo causo It was In dungoroiiH condition. The work will cost about $1G0. Ow ing to thoro being no abutting prop erty owners, tho city will linvo to pay for It, Some thought that tho city limits extended only to tho cast side of tho slough but It was lotiud that It went to tho west side. Front Street Vacated. Councilman Wlnklor stated that ho had been told that tho Alliance warohouso occupied part of Front street nnd wanted to know about It. City Attorney Gobs Bald that hu had looked tho matter up some time ago and found that tho coun cil had vacated Front street whoro tho warohouso Is a number of years ngo to got n shipyard. The vacation did not stipulate that it was to bo always used as a ship yard nnd consequently that tho city had lost Its claim to It. City Kn glneor Oldloy said that Hm resolu tion vacating tho street had4 boon pnbscd by council March 21. 1000. Mr. (Joss said that ho did not think thoro was any way In which tho city could recover tho stroot. Delay Heating Franchise. Tho franchise or W. S. Chnndlor for n heating system to cover tho business section of Marshfield was read hut final action was postponed until next meeting to permit a few slight- alterations In It. Knglnoer (ildley wanted the provision for re placing the paving made more ex plicit and Councilman Albrecht i wanted a provision requiring tho early repair of streets when tho company cuts them up. Tho fran chise Is the same that Mr. Chand ler holds now for n few streets, llo STREET WORK IS UP Council Arranges for Large Amount of Planking and Hard Surface Paving. Tho city council last evening de clared its intention to put In n !nigo amount' of hard surfaco pav ing this summer. Tho streets or dered hard paved were ones that CT.y Knirhieci- Oldloy had recom mended. They nro: North Front street from Kim to Hemlock, Broadway from Central to .Mill Slough. Curtis from Ilroadway to Second street. Tho reason for dividing tho Hrondwny Improvement wnH owing to tho Mill Slough proposition. Unless tho slough is ordered filled, ns expected, a bridge will have to ho put In. South Ilroadway will require cousKieranio lining, ti o presont planking being below grado. The till at Hall aveuuo will ho allout two feet. Order Planking. Final action on several plank street Improvements, prior to tho equalizing of iissossmnnts on March Other Business. The question of changing the grado of Commercial avenue in West Marshlleld enmo up for consideration nt last night's council meeting. It was brought up by a petition signed 'by Chas. S. Iloffmnn. It. T. Street. May Wall. Harry Winkler, O. W. Kauf man oud Ora McCarty, objecting to tho proposed grado of Fourteenth street from Central to Hlghlnnd. City Knglnoer (Ildley said that ho had made the grndo of Fourteenth street conform with Commercial and Highland an 1 In order to change tho Fourteenth street grade It would bo necessary to regrado Commercial nv enuo. Tho grado of Fourteenth street, between Central and Commer cial would be 10 per cent nnd be tween Commercial and Highland would be 7 1-2 per cent. (I. W. Kaufman said that tho pro posed grade of Fourteenth was bail not only because It loft most of "tho houses now on tho street below grade but because It was too steep a grado for a street that would open up that section. Ho said that 13. (1. Pcrham and J. It. Flanagan, owners of tho tracts beyond, were In favor of a change. Councilman Winkler, whose prop erty Is affected, said It did not scorn hardly right for a man when ho was living on tho highest hill In town to have to grado It still higher. Finally, Councilman Albrecht sug gested that tho grade of Fourteenth street bo changed iib required and a si ping approach bo cut back on Commercial to connect with It. Un der tho new grado, tho Intersection of Commercial and Fourteenth street will ho about six foet below tho pres ent grado of Commercial there. (I. W. Kaufman, ono of tho nffected property owners said that ho would pay his share of tho chango In Com mercial made necessary by tho change In tho grado of Fourteenth.
