Klett E. Thoms sons of Judges ind Willia 7, United F representatives city n of Waterbur; Water peared at the company meeting of the of public works last evening, for del in granting~ the of the Stanley Works for ap- board to ask petition permission the highways and property owned by 3ritain known as the | lot as well as along the west side of Hunter Road, from recent purchase of its Farming- ton river rights in the town of Kent. The petition w signed by E. W. Pelton, and it contained the proviso that all work would be done careful and workmanlike manner, the wires to be at least twenty feet above the highw Chairman Humphrey presided at the meeting. Quoting the statute of 1915, Judge Klett raised the question whether or rd had the powers to grant petition before maps had been ented to the public for that body to pass on. d it was his opinion that the torney general had given an adve: opinion that in a similar e in No walk. He also id that the com- pany which he represented had not had sufficient time to look over the plans, he having learned that they had not been presented to the board at 11:30 a. m. yesterday morning. Chairman Humphre questioned whether the public utilities commi sion had the right to exercise any authority over ci streets in a mat- ter of th kind. Judge Klett id there w enough law involved to warrant a continuance of the hearing for a week to give interested an opportunity of looking maps of the proposed layout. Judge Thoms spoke in a imilar vein, and stated that in several in- stances where he has represented the United Electric Light and Power com- any maps were furnished wher the lines crossed those of other parties. He believed that a plan such as pre- sented by the local concern should be examined by an engineer for the United company and then referred to the common council. In this way the company which he represented would have an opportunity of seeing how it affected their lines thus giving them more definite information Chairman Humphrey stated that as far as the board knew the petitioners may have complied with the statutes. Judge Klett said his clients had not granted the courtesy of exam- the maps. Judge Thoms said in many instanc the public utilities commission drafts regulations where safety requires them and if the Stan- ley Works proceeds without doing this it 1s not conforming with the sta- through the the city of New Old Farm town the D mission, He at- S0 over the ining ! tutes. Chairman Humphrey explained the conditions that exist where the pro- wires will He said there are very few the territory and the wires will carry less power than some of those over the streets. He could see no objection to granting the petition. Judge Klett again said he could see no reason why the matter could not be tabled for a week and give all a fair chance of scrutinizing the maps. Chairman Humphrey sald the company was very anxious to get e system installed before fall and as the council meets tonight, a post- ponement would mean a delay until the third Wednesday in September which would set them back that much. After more debating on the matter it was decided to recommend to the council this evening that the matter be left with the board of public works with power, This was agreecable to the attorneys. Hearings Given. One property owner appeared in favor of the sprinkling of Park street between Stanley and Fairview streets, and the board voted to recommend it. Representatives of a real estate company spoke in favor of the taking of 50 feet of City avenue, 613 east of East street to Market strect for highway purposes and the adop- tion of street grade and building lin The lines shown on the engineer's map were agreeable to the petition- ers and they were ordered adopted. No one appeared in regard to the laying of a sewer in Daly avenue and as it 1s an unaccepted highway, it was ordered that the work be done At Our Toilet Goods Counter This Week e havesome exceptional values n Tooth Brushe ash Cloths in s, Hair Brushes, sanitary pack- ages and traveling cases.

Representatives of the Western Union and he Postal Telegraph com- panies were present at the meeting to Jlain. a communication from the Western Union company that per- mission be extended to continue cer- tain overhead wires for time and tick- er service in this city. The commun- ication explained that the placing of | the wires in the ducts as prescribed by an order of the common council would entail extra expense on the subscribers for the above service. A map was presented by the represen- tatives which showed a roof to roof arrangement and the board took the map and plans for further consider- ation. Commissioner Downes inquired if, under the proposed system, poles would be necessary, and the spokes- 1 replied in the negative. The Al Telegraph company represen- ve stated that the company would continue to use the subway as in the past, ‘Not Accepted Street. At a recent mecting the matter of laying Cambridge street was discussed but there ome question as to wheth- er the et w n accepted one. The ter was referred fo the corpora- tion counsel who presented his opin- ion at the meeting and stated that in his findings and opinion it was not. For some time the board of health has entered vigorous objections about the conditions arising over the ov flow of cesspools in this localit forts have been made to get a sewer but two proper owners have re- fused to grant waivers and the mat- ter has been tied up. Commissioner Moore moved that the usual course of securing waiv be carried out it was the opinion of the the opposition that was before would again be in Chairman TTumphrey said that he be- licved it was a case where the hoard of health should bring condemnation proceedings in the interest of public health After some more debate it was voted to refer the matter back to the corporation counsel to recom- mend some manner of laying the sew- er without accepting the street. Other Matters. Chairman Humphrey reported that a bid of $385 for a front roller for the steam roller had been received from the Buffalo Steam Roller com- pany and it was voted to recommend to the council that it be purchased. A petition for a sidewalk on West street from Oak to Tremont street was laid over. The same course was pursued on a petition for a sidewalk on West street from Willow to North Stanley street. It was voted to recommend installation of a catch basin ox street to eliminate conditions c the overflow of ter on St. playgrounds.
