Councilman Hutchinson inquired as
tothe condition of the petitiouof the
Norwalk Tramway company logo down
South Main street. He was informed
that it was practically dead. as the sixty
days allowed the Council for action had
expired. The company would have to
send in another petition in order to have
any antic taken regarding a layout.
It- 'iii"\ decided to have a
meeting of the new city charter com-
mittee next Monday night.
Councilman Kendall spoke of the
unhealthy condition of the housea‘at
Nos 92 and Bi Taylor avenue, and the
Board voted to instruct the owner to
have the plumbing at once not in good

The dripping of water through the
railro' din-id r Washington street
and fo of the building at
the corner of Water and Elizabeth
streets. formed a topic of discussion. IL
was voted to request the railroad com-
pany to have pans placed over the side-
wnlksto prevent this nuisance in the
future, and to ask Joseph A. Pratt to
have the leaders on the Silk Mills build
ing repaired, and thus abntc the uni-
sance there.
Connoilinan Pearson thought some-
thing should be done to have the noise
of trains going over the Washington
street bridge deadened, and he suggested
a conference with the railroad company
Councilman Hutchinson reported upon
aconference he had had with Station
Agent Charles Raymond, who told him
that the railroad company had only
plzcedlights under the Monroe street
bridge to aid in the construction of the
wooden sheds over the sidewalk, and
that the company would not probably
light the streets of the city.
