Mayor Rushlight. City Engineer
urlburt and members of the Sewer
.Committee of the Executive Board,
visited the Holgate Sewer District yes
terday morning to see for themselves
the condition of the territory In which
the new sewer has been laid, and to
determine whether there la ground for
complaints that the trenches were not
filled properly. They found that Gie
bish A Joplln, the contractors, had
been over the ;rouad after complaints
were made that water was not used
In filling the trenches, and had re
filled where necessary.

impossible to do perfect filling In the
district because many of the. street
are only graded, not paved. The dis
trict is bounded by Holgate street,
Francis avenue. East Sixteenth street
and East Forty-first street. .
