Petition For Railroad Track Councilman Hellberg moved that a petition of the American Hardware Corp. for a crossover track on Park street be referred to the hoard of public works with power. Councilman Eichstaedt had no ov- jection but felt that factories should be required to keep tracks and road- ways in better condition. An amendment to refer to the rail- road committee was made by Alder- man J Gustav Johnson, and at the suggestion of Councilman Hellberg a three minute recess was declared so maps of the project might be ex- amined. Councilman D. I. Nair wanted the petition favored provided the corpora- tion would allow the cutting away of its property at the corner of Franklin square to make Elm street a through highway, amendment and the original motion was carried.

He asked if it was not pro- hibited by ordinance. 1 Chairman Gill asked Judge Kirk- | ham if this was so. He was Informed that officlals could sell in an market, Alderman Conlon said the commit- tee has had other bids, i Alderman Pajewski asked why it was proper for Alderman Johnsolf, to collect for his services if Paonessa could not sell cars. Councilman Nair quoted the char-| ter to show that personal services could be,billed against the city. When Alderman Pajewski was about to reply, Alderman Gill said: “No controversy, now; be good. Of course a week ago Nalr woulda't speak to Johnson." Councilman Cadwell spoke in favor of the auto even after the mayor had declined to make a sale. It was voted to buy the car through the Hartford agency. The assessors asked for means of transportation in visiting new build- ings and stores. The request was re- ferred to the ordinance committee.
