THE COUNCIL COMMITTEE, ‘The Council Committee on Raltroats held an- othor meeting yesterday afternoon to consider tho matter of West Side stroct ratlways, There were prerent Ald. Purcell, who presided, Rlor- dan, Watkina, and Young; also Mr, Bi. G, Asay, representing the People's and Metropolitan Compantes; Joseph Bonflold, representing “ property-ownors on Wost Lako street"; I, Hough, and several other people interested In the proposed new corporattons. Mr. Asny presented petitions aking that his companics bo allowed to Iay tracks on Canal street, from Luke to Fourteonth; Fourteenth, fram Canal to Ashinnd aves nue; Contre avenue, from. fiarrison to Fourteenth; ‘Throop, feam Fourteenth ta ‘Twenty-sccond; Lako street, from Michigan avenue to Union Park piace; Union Park place, from Lake to Fulton; Fulton, fram Unton Park place to Maplewood avenue; Harrison strect, from Franklin to Campbell avenue. Each ono had on ft the names of owners of a majority of tho frontage. He suid he would hand in a pett- tion for n track on Adatns street from Cann! to Michizan-nyonue, at some future Uline. He also handed to tbe Comnilttve copies of orddl- nances quthorizing the luying of tracks on tho ditterentatrests, The compres offered to pu; the elty $1000 year for cneh car, or one-fourth, of w cent for each passenger carried, twenty-lve rides to bo old for $1. Mr. Bonfiatd presented an ordinance granting the West Division Company the right to ny a double track on Lake street, from Wabash uve. nug to Union Park, elalining that thisone should Ue favorably reported by the Committee, since it would afford n continuous ting to the city limits, whieh would better accommpdate tho public than the broken line, The Connell bud no Jurisdiction unless given sitrisdiction and power to net by petition of property-owners on tha line of the street proposed to bo oeenpicil: and tho petition must show nu majority the frontage. Ho urged that the Metfropoliian Corning hod not put itaclf in a position to ennble tho Council. to consider its ordinance for a track on Luke street. The peti- tion showed 8,000 feet, 100° more than were necesgury. Many of the partics, however, who hod signed were simply tenants, baying uo aus thority to sign for the owners, Ho read tetera from diferent owners of lots which had been put down, they stating that they hud not signed tho petitions, nnd that 0 one was authorized to do It for thom; also letters from parties showing that men who hud signed Cor certain property did not own ft, nor were they authorized to act for tho owners, By this means ho elulmed to show tliat 1,408 fect were secured by “fraudulent Bignntures.” He niso clnimed that ho cond prove that the size of lots had been doubled and tripled in the Metropolitun'’s petition, und knocked off 410 fect more. Ho potnted out several repetitions tho samo property being put down twice, aiding this 1%) feet, and mukitog in nl 2,008 feet which should be deducted for the 8.61), Owners of 2,08 feut Inu also withdrawn their signitures, So the 8,000 was reduced to 4008 fevt—not half of tho auntie required by law, He, therefore, characterized the Metropofttan's petition ag worthless, As to that of the West ivision Company, lt was all right, representing: {751 feot while only 8,430 were required. He presented & remanstratice ayitinat & track on Union Park plico, signed by owners of over half the frontage, and alse a letter from tho pastor of Grace Methodist Church, (150 feet), who had signod tho People’s petition, withdrawing his signature, On Fulton street 6.000 feet wero uw inajority. Mr. Bontleld submitted remon- stranees aggregating 0428 feot. “In view of those fneta, he urged that the Committee could not consider the People's ordiminee. On the other band, Mr. Bonfield handed in 2 petition from property-owners on Lake atrest from Nockwen to Contrnl Park asking that the West Division Company be allowed to ley down a track. It represented two-thirds of tho frant- age. Sir, Asay pointed out that the petition was for tho West Division or “any other” contpany. Mr. Hontield retorted that no other Company had appticd for the right on that portion of the street, Ele mado this point: That the Mctropul- itm and People's, being organized tinder tho Goneral Inw, were required to give ten days’ public notice of their intention to apply for tho uso of certain streets, naming thom, ‘This thoy had not done; und, thorefore, tholr ordinances could not. be consifered. Mr, Asay aid that notice had been prblished In tho Journal. Mr, Bonileld thon went into the question of expulleney, arguing that there were two ordl+ naners, which indicated that thore were tivo separate Companics, and both would buve tho ene to charge 6 cents vach, ‘ir, Asay remarked that they wero rentiy one. Mr, Bonfleld contended that it was dangerous to tho public Interest to take that for yrnutert. They would bo a curse to the publie, aid could not necomplish whit thoy proposed.

Mr. Asay said that tho statemonty of Rome of tho purties whose letters hud becn read by Mr. Ronticld wero ubsolutely fulso; and he wanted timo to look into the matter, Tho Committe therefore adjourned until 10 o'clock Baturday morning, proposing to finial the tall that dry, _—————— SUFFERING FOR FOOD IN KANSAS, Des Moines, Ia., Sept. 23,--Levi Johnson, of Norton County, Kansas, is livra soliciting ald for the people In Phillips, Sherman, De- eatur, Sherldan, Rawlins, and other counties.
