Protest was filled by the Pacific Realty Company, which owns property at the corner, against the proposal to cut down the curb by nearly two feet Tirey L. Ford, attorney ror the corpor- ; ation, wanted action taken at once, but the board decided to consider the mat- ter this morning at 11:30 o’clock. City Engineer Woodward filed a re- port stating that he is not in favor of cutting down the sidewalk width at the point named and suggested the adoption of another plan as follows: sbmit & plan wh m»-: and runaiog scutherly cross-over enty-six feet into the 2asterly t similar et uld them cormer uld be Axpenled with Ford stated that no prudent company could entertain the propesition, as it would result in congested traffic. The board adopted a resolution re- questing of the Civil Service Commission that M. A. Fraser, a clerk. and George Robertson, a messenger, be dismissed from the service and removed from the eligible lists, because of continued ab- sence without leave. L. D. Sloss and F. Myer were appointed clerks from the eligible list. The application of Peter McHugh for an extension of time on his contract to repave Jackson street. betwe Cherry and First avenue, was denied, as his permit has expired. He was told to file a new application, and the board again took occasion to take dil tory contractors to task, saying the de- partment was criticized for their would not be tolerated in ¥y was appointed draughtsman 125 per montk. at The City Engineer submitted a map showing the boundaries of the district to be assessed for the changes of grade on Seventh and other streets along the right of way of the Southerm Pacific Company for its bay shore cut-off line. The damages to the lots and improve~ ments which 1 result from the change wiil aggregate $50.900, the work to be done by the company as per the conditions "of its franchise. The board rejected the claim of Joseph Baruh for $112 25 damages to his hack from falling into a side sewer trench on McAllister street, near Steiner, as Deputy Donovan reported that lamps were placed at the point when the accident happened. Deputy Donovam reported it would cost 3350 to prevent the sewer on Ful- ton street. between Baker and Lyon, from overflowing. Resolutions of expediency were adopted for building a number of new sidewalks, which property-owners re- fuse to construct. The board recommended that the sidewalks on the southerly side of Ful- ton street, from Sixth ayenue to the great highway, be dispemsed with and abolished and those on the northeriy side be fixed at designated widths. ristiania and C Arrived Oct 12—Stme Colmbian, COPENHA( United States, tiania QUEENSTOWN — Arrived Ot _12—Stmr Noortland, from Philadeiphia, for Liverpooi, and proces: el Oct 12— Stmr Tverais. from Liverpooi. for Beston.

A protest was flled M Crane and Anna Joost ag: ing of any streets in the district ex- tending from Twenty-fourth avenue South to the northerly line of the Paul Tract. The Southern Pacific Company desired to close the streegs in return for the conveyance of a strip of land eet wide running along its right ty-fourth avenue South to Twenty-seventh avenue South, to be dedicated as a public street.

Jere Burke wanted the committee to take up the tter of a franchise through Islais Creek, but the committes refused t# do so, as the application a fraochise for a through the Mission, district and for a railroad along Islais Creek was denied at the time the franchise for the bay shore ilne was granted.
