Meetings llold Yesterday.
The special hearing before the City
Council of Norwalk, yesterday after-
noon, on the benefits and damages as-
sessed in the Mill Hill mutter. occupied
about an hour and a half.
Attorney Levi Warner represented
the Tramway company and Attotney
John ll. Light looked after the Interests
of Mauice and Julia Lockwood and
those of E. St. John Lockwood. K. W.
Mansfield. of the'Travauy company,
and City Engineer Wood were also
present.
Attorney Light said his clients had
not had time to prepare any specific line
of evidence, but would simply present
their views upon the matter and let the
Council act as it saw fit. He inquired
what the cost of cutting into Miss Julia
‘ Lockwood's’ property would be.
. came in arulwas heard.
City Engineer Wood replied that the
cost was estimated at $1,511.80. the wall
not to be over seven feet high. The on
timatc Would necessitate the taking
away of one elm tree, and would do all
the, Work except rebuilding the retaining
wall. which would be built by Miss
beckwood. The estimated cost of the
improvements to Manicc Lockwood's
property was $212. including grading,
smlding, making and paving drivewayl
stonesteps. making altotal of $50 for
Mr. l’nickwood to pay
Attorney Light raised the question of
ownership of the property on the south-
erly side of Mill Hill. He said the
Loekwoods wem'enot the only persons
interested. a portion of the property be
ing common land. The title to the
narrow strip at the corner of Smith and
Wall streets, Manice Loc'kLLoorl aid
was theirs.
Attorney Warner asked ILL'LLL long be-
fore work would be commenced at that
point:
Mayor Wheeler replied that the. re-
port of the special committee would
probably cornef’np at the regularinoeting
of the Council Monday ‘night, but still
a special meeting might by ('lllletl.
Attorney Light said that in the case
of Miss Julia [nickwood there was no
special benefit. It was a residence
which could be used for no other pur
pose. He also made the same claim for
Manicc Lockwood. lllr. Light then
raised the question whether the proper-
ty was worth any more. If not. he
said. the benefit was simply a general
one, and be asked what reason there
was that they should pay an extra tax.
He did not think the law covered a case
of that kind. In the case of Inckwood’s
Hall, if the Council founr a special
benefit. it should not assess th t proper
ty five times as much as the Sclleck
lfrothcrs' building across the street. llc
believer! in an equalized scale of assess-
ment, which he thought had been
rather ignored.
At this juncture Jeremiah Dimovun
He thought
the conunittce. in making the proposed
improvement, had put one-third on the
city. That was too much. and a por-
tion of it should be put on the town. At
present the town taxes brought in two-
thirds more than the cities', of which
the cities got but but very little. The
selectmen turn back to the cities about
$1,300 for thc‘roads, when the citie's
roads are used by the town. and in the
end the town lnrus over but little for
the highways. The improvement was LL
town one as wall as a Norwalk one. lie
thought the electric roads should nol
find fault with what was assumed
. They would save more in vvcar and tear
r,
and powur with the hill cut down than
the amount they were assessed. llc did
not see how the property-«mums could
find fault with their assessments. lie
thought the monument of oncothird on
the city should be divided] however.
and then have the town pay its share.
The cities never get their share of the
money from the town. The city of
South Norwalk pays in $5,000 a your
more now than in the past. yet it gels
no more highway money. lie under-
stood that the case was the same with
Norwnlk. Mr. Donovan mlvocnted the
calling of a metal town meeting to pay
a purtkm of the. cost. He saw no reason
why the town would not vote for It, as
it was I town benefit.
Attorney Warner said in behalf of the
Tramway company. that it was indonbt
“VKJUElll‘l matter. lie asked the com»-
miltee how they arrived at the benefits,
or whether it was a general assumption
of what the company should pay. The
cornprmy was unable to see that amount
of benefits. yet if the city could show It

To get at Mr. Quintard‘s damages he
thought the Council should fully con

of tenants. The third story of the build
ing is new rented. but will be useless
when the change is made. ,Mr. Quin-
tard. he claimed, wohld be satisfied with

assessment he gets $1,001) outside of . the

only difference being the $300 additional

Judge Hubbell also appeared for Plan

of his building and owr one third of his
land, ashallow lot at that. When that'
building is cut oil and the front put back
it will leave a room twelve feet deep. If
Mr. Price desires to rebuild the building
he will have to putin a new chimney,

The local conditions have bcm thus
shown to have been all that could be
desired for a successful convention of
this kind.

decided success in every particular. (If
course, the stormy weather interfered
with the attendance, but in spite of

Only a few of the striking linemen

company say that they were discharged.

company’s oillcials make it ’ appear
probable that the employees were pre-
cipitato in striking When they did. It
was‘said that the mmpauy itself was
not responsible for the non-payment of
the men. as the latter were hired di-
