The city council Is expected to detcrmlno
tonight whether certain streets and avenues
In tho Fourth ward, ordered paved, shall
bo paved with asphaltum or brick. The In
tercBted property owners on First, Fourth
and Fifth avenues. Sixth nnd Seventh
streets have reiterated their demands for
nsphnltum and It Is said will tnko step
to prevent any paving on the streets named
unless their wishes are acceded to.
Too streets which It Is desired to pave
with asphaltum are embraced In what Is
known as tho second paving resolution,
flnaL action on which was postponed InK
Monday until tonight. Tho list of streets
covered by this roMiltltlon arc as follows
Sixth street, from Ilroadway to Fifth ave
nuc; Sixth street, from south line of Klghth
avenue to north curb lino of Sixteenth
nvenue; Seventh street, from Ilroadway
to Fifth avenue; Klghth street, from Uroad
way to north curb lino of Seventh avenue;
Fourth avenue, from Klghth street to cast
curb lino of Ninth street; First avenue,
from Pearl street to Klghth street; Ninth
nvenue, from Miiln street to cast curb lino
of Sixth street; Willow avenue, from Sov
enth street to Klghth street; Fifth nvenue,
from Main street to west lino of Klghth
street- Sixth avenue, from Main Btreot to
cast curb line of Sixth street; Third ave
nuc, (torn Klghth street to cast curb lino
of Ninth street.
Thero has been some talk since the las
council meeting of some of the nldcrmen
not being In favor of doing any more paving
this year than the group of streets em
braced In the first resolution, tho contrac
for which has been awarded to P. 11. Wick
ham. This Is said to be the position taken
by Aldermen Huber nnd Lougce, but It
will remain to bo seen by tho action of
tho council tonight whether they will re
celvo eiilTlclcnt support to put a stop to any
moro paving this season. The question a
assessment for tho cost of public Improve
mnnts under tho now law la one feature that
Is worrying some of tho aldermen. It I
feared that tho property on some of the
streets ordered paved will not bo able
stand tho expense and that under tho law
tho city will bo forced to bear a greatc
part of tho cost of tho paving. This the
city Is not nt present In n condition to do,
Owing to tho several nuostlons that have
arisen In connection with the paving tho
action of the city council nt tonight's meet
lng will bo watched with more than ordl
nary Interest.
nd City Clerk Nipper have Investigated
the system and believe that It would be
profitable Investment for the city, to be
run In connection with tno electric ngni
plant, which Is owned by the city. A
special meeting of tho council will be
cnllcd In the near future to consider the
matter. It Is estimated that It will re
quire about 10,000 to put In a plnnt and
that by using the exhaust steam It can be
operated at a minimum coat, so as to yield
profit for the city.
