Veto Overruled in Cable and Rail Measures
City councils moved to approve Chief Elliott’s award for the Poor Farm buildings to C. A. Ralph and to authorize a petition to widen Diamond Street from Smithfield to Liberty. The Bellefield Street Railway bill faced opposition but was upheld over the mayor’s veto with a 25 to 5 vote in Select Council and 26 to 10 in Common Council.
