FARRE[.L, Dejuty Commissioner of FTbirca .r DEAR SIR—As to the grading and paving of Meeker avenue, from Kingsland avenue to Newtown creek, a report on which was asked by President Grout, I would submit the following estimate : This improvement will require about 26,000 cubic yards of grading, 12,370 square yards of granite pavement, besides curb and crosswalks. The estimated cost is $40,000. The district of assessment proposed is 200 feet on each side of the street, which will include an area of 1,010,000 .square feet, and the assessed value of this property within the district (1897) is $174,x• A district of one-half the block on each side proved to be so irregular that it was thought better to fix it at 200 feet on each side, as this will probably be the first substantial improvement in this district for some time to come. The fact that there is so much grading required, although there are now railroad tracks on the street, is because the embankment is barely wide enough to accommodate these tracks, and to put the entire street to grade will require much more work. This improvement includes the grading, curbing and paving with granite-blocks on a sand foundation, and the laying of crosswalks. Respectfully, (Signed) N. P. LEWIS, Engineer of Highways, Borough of Brooklyn. Also petition from henry Bindrim, corner of Meeker avenue and North Henry street, and others, for the repaving of ?Meeker avenue, between Kingsland avenue and Manhattan avenue, with granite-blocks.

FARRELL, Deputy Commissioner of Ili,;hways : DEAR Slit—As to the repaving of Meeker avenue, from Manhattan avenue to Kingsland ave- nue, with granite block pavement, a report on which was asked by President Grout, I will say that this work will require the laying of 8, i to square yards of granite pavement ; the setting and resetting of 4,580 linear feet of curl) ; and the laying of 1,830 square feet of granite crosswalk. The estimated cost is $Ig,000 ; and, inasmuch as this is repaving, no area of assessment or value of the property within such district is given. The improvement proposed covers regrading, recurhing and repaving with granite block pavement on sand foundation, and the laying and relaying of crosswalks. Respectfully, (Signed) N. P. LEWIS, Engineer of Highways, Borough of Brooklyn. After hearing the petitioners, Alderman Helgaus offered the following : Resolved, That the petitions for grading and paving Meeker avenue, between Kingsland avenue and the Meeker Avenue Bridge, and repaving Meeker avenue, between Kingsland avenue and Manhattan avenue, be laid over, and that it be suggested to the petitioners that they submit a petition for the improvement of Meeker avenue, between Kingsland avenue and the Meeker Avenue Bridge, showing what of the property is owned by the petitioners, and whether said petitioners own a majority of the property.

GRoc'1', President of the Boroi&;/i of Brooklyn DEAR SIR—In accordance with your request of the 2c1 instant, for a report and estimate of the cost of repaving Varick avenue, from Metropolitan avenue to Johnson avenue, I beg to submit the following report thereon from Engineer Lewis of this Department : This street was graded and paved with cobblestone pavement some years ago, and, as stated in the petition (herewith returned), there has undoubtedly been a considerable settlement of the pavement. The estimate is based on an assumed filling of IS inches, and would require the following amount of work : 7,617 square yards of granite pavement ; 5,000 lineal feet of old and new curb ; 7,500 cubic yards of embankment. Total cost, including inspection and engineering, would probably be $19,500. This estimate is for regrading, recurbing and repaving with granite block pavement laid on sand foundation. The practice in the past in Brooklyn has been to lay the assessment for repaving according to the frontage only. On this street this policy would result in laying an assessment on some very small parcels on one side of the street, and large undivided plots on the opposite side, and it is difficult, therefore, to fix a proper value for the assessed valuations. 'The frontage available for assessment is 3,430 lineal feet, counting both sides of the street, and the value of this property, according to the tax rolls of 1897, is $271,850.

Kings County Republican General Committee, asking for the ruling of the Board upon the following questions :

1st. Does service as an Inspector of Election at the Primary Election disqualify a mat from being a delegate to a party convention or committee, and does the fact that a man is a candidate on a party ticket disqualify him from acting as Inspector of Election June 7, IS9S ?

To which question the Board answers that no person can act as an Inspector of Election who is a candidate upon any ticket to be voted for at the Primary Election.

2d. If proof can be brought that a man is illegally on the roll books in the possession of the custodian of primary records, is it not the duty of the custodian to at once strike off such naive?

To which question the Board answers that it has no power to strike from the record the name of any person thereon. The right of any person duly enrolled to vote ntiv be challenged at the primary in the manner pro%ided by the Pnmarvv El.ction Law.
