Southern Pacific Company Offers Land to Widen Kentucky Street. —_— The proposed grant of franchise to the Southern Paclfic Company for a bay shore line seems to be in a fair way of settle- ment as a result of the conference yes- terday between the Supervisors’ Street Committee and representatives of the corporation. The committee had prepared an ordinance providing for the grant and had fmposed certain conditions therein to which the company took exception. These included the building of a viaduct across Fifth street and the laying out of a street through the marketplace lots, which the company fs desirous of leasing for its ter- minal. The company flatly refused to accept either of the two foregoing conditions, but as a compromise voluntarily agreed to donate the necessary land to widen Kentucky street twenty feet: for a dis- tance of a mile or more. The committee but it is understood that it will meet the company half way and the ordinance pro- viding for the grant covering the condl- tions will be presented to the board at next Monday’'s meeting, together with the report of the committee on the sub- ject. Representing the company were Chief Counsel Herrir, General Manager Kruttschnitt, Jere Burke and E. J. Foulds. Besides the members of the Street Committee — Supervisors Curtls, Braunhart and Connor—there were pres- ent Supervisors Laughery and Wilson/ Commissioner of Works Manson and City Engineer Grunsky. AGREE ON RENTAL. Herrin sald he considered the rental of the marketplace lots fixed at $00 per month for the first five years as being high, but he had eed to the figure made by the City Engineer. “There is a citizen who does not agree with you,” said Braunhart. ‘‘He has filed a communication which I would like to have read.” The communication, signed by E. P. BE. Troy, was read and recited that at the rate that adjacent property was rented the marketplace lots should be worth $27,048 per year. The communication con- tinues: These blocks are of especlal value to the rallroad as they run through the center .of their land and if t secure poseession of them they will have clear tract reaching from Fourth to Sixth street, about 1700 feet in length, und having a water frontage on the south side of Channel street for this entire distance, Kruttschnitt objected to the reserva- tion of a strip of land sixty feet in width to the marketplaces new proposition. * said Kruttschnitt, Pacific Company 000 toward building Third street, and we we should be required for an entrance claiming th ‘It was un to0C “that the Southern should contribute $5 a bridge acros: think that is all to do.” OBJECTS TO LEASE. John Deahl objected to leasing the| marketplace lots to t Southern Pa- cific Company at $500 per month, claim- ing that the property should be rented to the highest bidder. Herr suggested that it would be bet- ter to agree on a valuation of the lots, so that the company could purchase them outright. | Deahl advised against immediate sale | of the land, saying that 1f the company | could afford to pay $150,000 at the present | time for the lots it could pay that sum | in five or ten year: s the property would | certainly not depreciate in value. | Herrin said it was absolutely inconsist- ent to reserve land for street purposes | on property to be rented to the company, as the city had the power at any time to open up streets. I “This is an important step in connec- | tion with our doing business with San Francisco,” said Kruttschnitt, *“‘and e | could not afford to take it with our ten- ure of the terminals as uncertain as the | ordinance would make 1t.”’ | Grunsky said he had always pointed to the value of the marketplace lots and | that a right of way through them is es- sential to protect the city's interest. “We will not accept the franchise with the stipulation for a_ street through the land,” said Herrin. | | “The committee will take this matter | under advisement,” said Chairman Cur- tis. “In view of the fact that we have| promised to spend $55,000 across Third street we could not agree to build a via- duct acro Fifth street, which would | cost probably $600,000,” sald Kruttschnitt. | “You have provided for a bridge on Six- teenth street for which we will have but | little use. I think we have been very | generous in this matter and the commit- tee should ‘let up’ a little on us.” VIADUCT A NECESSITY. “The viaduct may become an absolute ssity in course of time,” said Grun- L B e e e e O T ) i Fred Roberts, beloved son of W.

Grunsky said the Western Pacific Company had asked for a franchise at the crossing of Tulare and Marin streets, | and it may be necessary to bridge over | certain streets. The Santa Fe Company filed an amend- | ed petition for a franchise so that the | route of the road will run from a point | at the intersection of Arkansas and Six- teenth streets along Eighth and thence along Fifteenth street, owing to protests filed by* property owners. The Real Estate and Development Com- pany, by Fred Clark president, repre- <enting 1035 feet frontage, flled a petition | that the board grant. the application of the Santa Fe Company for a franchise. The petition recites that the adjacent property will find its most important use as sites for manufacturing and industrial enterprises, and to this end the fullest possible development of railway service is_essential. John and Maggie Trout of 1020 Mariposa street filed a protest agaffist granting the franchise to the Santa Fe Company. The reasons assigned are that the adjolning property would depreciate | Goodell, | eipal Murphy of the Commercial School. | | tory be sub: | Potrero. in value and if the franchise should be granted that electricity’ should be sub- stituted for steam.
