Hall on the matter of changing the side- walk on the south side of Main street at the Rockwell building at the junc- tion of Main and Market streets. Mr. Hal] showed a plan made by Chand- ler & Palmer, showing that by con- tinuing the walk straight ahead for about ten feet, into the street, which 18 not used at that point, the bad grade at that point could be avolded. The rail would be dong away with and the present grade changed but slightly. Owing to the grade there, however, it would be unwise to put in a cross- walk there, The change could be made for $300 and it would be a public im- provement. The signpost could go else. where and- the slippery blocks could be replaced by new ones. He thought the signing of a petition by the mer- chants would have much influence. President Cary told of the petition being sent to the common council, which had been signed by a number of business men, 28 . R. Robbins thought the real trou- tle was the grade in the two streets, and thought a permanent improdement sbould be made, as the trouble is not with the sldewalk, He suggested that Main street hill be cut down about & fcot, which would take out the double slope at the foot of the hill and over- come the trouble. It would be one of the most humane acts the city could do. Upon his motion the committee was instructed to continue its investi- gation for information- on ~such a change, and a sum not to exceed $25 wag allowed the committee. Central Vermont Road.

Wulf and explained by President Cary. 1t called for the siraightening of the east line of Shetucket street from the Thames Loan and Trust com- pany building to Shannon's cormer, which would widen it about ten feet on the corner and glve the desired room there, He also announced that Mr. Shannon in making the pins ior his new building has set the building back nine inches from the old line on the corner, so that that will be for the use of the public. 0. E. Wulf explained the plan, say- ing that many had considered it the Dbest solution of the difficulty there, and he did not think it too late, as the Thames bank would Erobably tear down thelr present building and the newly acquired one and the new building could be set back a short dls- tance, while some change could proba- bly be secured for the Shannon build- ing. T. C. Murphy called attention to the fact that every now and then there is trouble over building lines, grades, etc., and said that the common councii should establish these and then all this trouble would be obviated and the widening of streets would not come so often.
