Your Committee of the Whole would
respectfully report that we met with
the representatives of the several rail-
roads interested in the order of the
City Council to construct and maintain
gates at certain specified crossings, and
directed that the gates on crossings
occupied by more than one railroad
should be. placed as follows:
Railroad Avenue -One west of the C.,
M. & St. Paul track and one east of
the I. C: west bound main track.
Jones Street -One west of the C., M.
& St. P. 'track and one east of the Bush
track.
First Street -One west of the C., M.
& St. P. track and one east of the
I. C. track and a watchman stationed
at Iowa Street. -
Second Street -One west of the C., M.
& St. P., and one east of the I. C. track.
54 Regular Session, February 1, 1912 Regular Session, February 1, 1912 55
Third Street —One west of the C., M.
& St. P. track and one east of the
track leading to the C., B. & Q. pass-
enger depot.
Fourth Street —One west of the C., M.
& St. P. track and one east of the
easterly switch track.
Seventh Street —That instead of gates
at this crossing, two watchmen be sta-
tioned.
Eleventh Street, Thirteenth Street,
Fifteenth Street, Sixteenth Street and
Seventeenth Street, one gate at each
crossing west of the C. G. W. track
and one east of the C., M. & St. P.
track.
The other gates ordered by the reso-
lution adopted January 10, 1912, being
on the respective rights of way of
the C., M. & St. P. and the C. G. W.
Railroad companies, said companies
were directed to erect a gate on either
side of their tracks on the crossings
specified in said resolution. •
Your Committee of the Whole, to
whom was referred the petition of the
Kretschmer Manufacturing Co. asking
that the valuation for assessment pur-
poses on city lots 417, 418 and 419, the
improvements to be made thereon and
also on the personal property used in
connection with its business be
placed at $5,000.00 for a period of ten
years, would respectfully recommend
that the prayer of the petitioner be
granted and that the accompanying or-
dinance confirming said exemption be
adopted.
Your Committee of the Whole, to
whom was referred the petition of St.
Joseph's College, stating that the as-
sessment levied against it for the
construction of the Belmound and West
Fourteenth Street sanitary sewer was
altogether out of proportion to the
benefits conferred on its property, and
