' “In order that proper steps and proceedings may be taken to safeguard the lives and limbs of our people, | recommend that provision be made for the ap- -pointment of an expert commission to examine and report upon the condition of the roadbeds, rolling stock, signal systems, discipline, etc., upon these roads, that a suitable appropriation therefor be made. To this end, | enclose herewith the draft of an ordinance, directing the appointment of such a commission oviding for their compensation. Respectfully, WM.
