Upon the petition of property holders and reel.
denta for a bridge over it. Autheny Oanal, at
Duel street I beg leave to report unfavorably, as I
the necessities of the neighborhood are not of
Ouch a character as to warrant the outlay at
pesent.
Upon the petition of property owners and reel
deits on Spain street, asking the cleaning of the
ýutiers of that street ont ide of Claiborne street, I
I have to report, that in company with Mr. Ber
1n, the contractor of the district, I made a I
thorough examination of the neighborhood re
hfed to and found nothing to justify the com
plaint entered. The gutters along Spain street
when I visited them on Wednesday, August 15
were perfectly dry and in good condition. I called
Open one of the petitioners to designate the I,
eanse of complaint, and was answered that the
street and gutters were all right but a person w
represented to several of the neighbors if they
mhade a petition the city would mnke some extra
Improvement on their street, and they signed the
etiion not knowing its contents.
Upen the petition of citizens and othere on
Goodoblldren street, for the removal of the wig
wam on said street, I beg leave to report unote
vorably, fbr the following reasons:
1. The building in question is thoroughly
elosed and fastened, so as to pevent any one to h
enter or uee the same unlawfully.
9. Many persons residing in the immediate o
vicinity favor the existence of the building as a v
place of public meeting in that section, and as
ýett that the persons complained of would aeeem- 1.
ble in the saine locality and do all that is com
plained after the building was removed.
2. It 3s the duty of the police authorities to
prevent the assembling of roedies on the public
grunds or the use of ouch language as tends
to o~tnd decency, and if this duty is properly
performed the cauee of the complaint referred to
will be entirely removed.
