In answer to ® question, the gentle- man ver said that if the Commissioners got hold of the remonstrance het of names, then they might perhaps ‘see’' some of the owners, ani Ber them something over the amount they c!aim- ed for their property. As Brooklyn would be by this measure, he thought it Jedicious to put thie matter off until an application could be made to the Legislature to aesess the owners of Brookiyn also for benef. held thatevery person assessed for benefit or damave had « right t remonsirate. On the conclusion of Judge Fovte’s remarks, Judge Hilton offered the following preamble and Teacletions a# en amendment to bis previous sug- gestion : Whereas, The Common Counci!, at ite closing seesion, in December, passed an Act in great haste to widen Ann and Fulton streets, the resolution bene fires presented on the %th aud consummated o@ the 80th ult., and onotwithstandiug more than ree-fourths of the property-ownors on aa i streets bed remcmstrated against it, even the customary Privilege of referring it to the Comm |ttee on Bireets ‘was denie! them ; Therefore resolved, That ite the senee of this moeting, that \\ is altogether unnecessary and in- expedient © widen #ald streets, as they are wide e@gough for all business done or likely to be done 1m therm for many years ; and further that she com of wileorng as this time would be much preater Shan the bevefit likely tu be derive!, and very op pressive to adjoining ‘operty-bolders who have meit! er asked tor nor desires such widening Resolved, That e Committee of fifteen be appolnt- ed with power to collect subscriptions and employ counsel, etc., with power to do al! acts necessary © present the matter to the Legislature of the Pate and Cornmon Coane! of the City, and take such other proceedings as may in their judgment be necessary to prevent the consummation of eald Act. Bsid Committee to have power to call enother mecting if im their judgment li shall be Revoweary The resolutions were then unanimously adopted amid great applause. Mr. Joon W. Oliver then rose and #ail— I have bere « resolution which I wish to offer, Vat I should lke to say afew words firm. Before coming to this meeting I took « louk at the situa. tion and imagined how the proposed widening wouki operate. Im my mind's eyo I saw « build- ing whiob is about to be erected on the southeast corner of Ann strees and Broadway, and is at is in- tended to be a very large building, it will look to or sfroms a6 if it stood right in the middle of Broadway. (Leughter.) Of course we are to New Broadway in toto, but in order to alow the sense of this meeting I propose the Ollowing + Resolved, That should New Broadway be finally or@ned, as pr posed, the improveneut would not be complete without extending Park Row to Fulton ssreot, and thas we will favor such an alteration. A volce—"'I move thas that be inserted in the New York Hamat.” A other voloe—''This establishment does not advertise in the New York Hraan,” (langhter.) The above resoluiian was then unanimously adopted. Mr. A. 8, Cohen, of the New York Exranss, staiad that asthe Messrs. Brooks were interested io opposing this matur, ce bad sought an inter- wnew with Aluermen Norton and U'Brien, who informe him thet the maser had been run torough the Duard of Aldermen so expediiously that it was paesod without ther knowledge. ey in- tended, therefore, to offer » resolutivn in the Board to reacind the former one suthorizing ‘‘New Broad- way.” Ho merely mace this siatemont as a sug- gestion \o the mecting. (Applause ) The Chsirinen then announced the names of the Commities of fifteen, erobracing the names of gen- tiemen largely interested in property affected by the proposed measure, Subsequently the Committes of fifteen mot in council, at which several gentlemen appointed at the first meeting stated their reasons for not ac- copting their sppointments. Whereupon the re ® gnations were secepted, and eventually the Com- mittee was completed by the nomination and ac- coptance ef the following gentlemen : tt i Wn. T. Pi HH, Blydenbergh. Heory Hilwo.
