Mr. H. Murray sald that be never authorized any persou to put his name to the paper, and be beiteved that the Common Council had not the power to compel the railroad companies to remove the snow. Mr, Harr said that the railroad companies acted ag if thoy ewned the streets of the city, and he beileved that some measure should be adopted to prevent them from obstructing the sidewalks by piling up snow ee her side of the tracks. Mr, W. B, Rovenrs observed that, in justice to Mr. Murray, his name should be stricken from the resaku- tion; but he disagreed from that gemtieman in his argu- ment, He believed that tne raliroad companies ougas to be prohibited from obstructing the sidewalks, aud thought that the Common Councii should compel them to abate the nuisance, The street contractor was pas to keep the sireets clean; but be did not think thas is was his business to remove all the snow.
