Considerable satisfaction is being expressed by the owners and occupants of thfidwellings along Driggs avenue, between South Fourth and.

They had been sufferers for many months from the new Eastern District bridge, work and they had actually been on the vergo of despair until a few months ago. The" the bridge authorities began directing the work, which has converted the entire block on both sides into a modern thoroughfare. 'There is not another street in. the city that: has received the same facilities, which include an asphalted street and sidewalks of concrete, together with box brownstonn fronts to each of the dwellings.

The city went even further than supplying the street and sidewalk by offering to repair the fronts of' each of the buildings damaged by the bridge work and will not r.nly paint and varnish the woodwork in front of the buildings along that street, but will also replace the delects in ulc appearance, me uesifcu i mw. found in all buildings of the latest nrennee turp in other sections ol" the city, the im provements have added to the value of the structures, and the owners are satisfied, with but one exception. This is in the case of the occupant of the dwelling at S05 Driggs avenue. Nothing has betri done in tho direction of niakins repairs lor the reason that the owner declined to sign the agreement that, was circulated re leasing the authorities.

"i Xorth Seventh street, was sent to jail by Magistrate Higginbothain in the eLe avenue court to day on a technical charge of vagrancy and Deputy Fire Chief Snow, who Is in charge of the Eastern District, believes there will now be a dearth of false fire alarms in that section. For the last month the firemen have been kept busy at all hours of the day and night responding to alarms, and in few instances were there signs of a fire. Box 441 at Xorth Sixth street and Drlegs avenue was repeatedly pulled and twice in one day the firemen were routed out of their quarters on fruitless jaunts. The boxes were watched when it. became the polite ana ttremen.

HUNDREDS OF ALTERATIONS trr i j. i WBaamgwnoueei win kouii, son Street, Van Anden Logic of Suggestions.

The commission for the renaming of duplicated Brooklyn ntreets will hold a meeting Friday of this week and finally revise Its report to be made to Borough President Swan strom and by him presented to the Board of Aldermen. The names of 200 etreets in this borough will be changed it the Board of Aldernien "ratifies the recommendations of the commission in full. The commission has almost completed its work and its report is now being prepared by Secretary Crelghton of the Brooklyn League. The renaming of streets in the Eastern District was left to I. S.

Reaison and Peter Burden, two old residents of that section, and they handed in their report at the meeting of the commission Friday last. This report will be adopted and included in the general report of the commission. Borough President Swanstrom's recommendnt ton that the numbered streets in the Eastern District be renamed was complied with. In renaming the streets the commission has honored the names of prominent Brook lvn men. livinn onrl rtpnrl.

As r'np lit has not been finally approved, and as a number ot changes are suggested, the commission is prepared to make public its report yet It is now said that some important changes at first suggested may not be made. For instance; the names of neither Clinton street nor Clinton avenue is likely to be changed. The commission realizes that these names I are confusing, but they are too old and the streets too important To change name of either of them, it is argued. The name of Willoughby street. however, will be changed, and likelihood bc.Beecher stret thus honoring the name of Henry Ward lieeeher, whose statue stands almost at the head of this street.

Prospect. Park West will not be changed, although Prospect avenue will be. and both the Prospect places and at least one of the rospect streets will be given other names. Prospect avenue, will be named Tracy avenue, in honor of General Benjamin F. Tracy.

Johuson street will be changed to Van Anden. in honor of the founder or the Brooklyn Eagle. Other like changes, honoring well known Brooklyn names, will be made in all parts of the city. Over in Williamsburgh some of the changes recommended are as follows: Xorth Third street is changed to Jenkins street, after John G. Jenkins; North Xinth street, to Patterson street, in honor oi tne ate Assessor Thomas J.

Patterson; North Fifth street, to Fischer street, after Henry C. Fischer: Xorth Eighth, to Ricard, after George Ricard: Xorth Fifteenth, to Dick street, after William Dick. Meserole avenue, in Greenpoint, is changed to Adrian avenue, there being a Meserole street, which will remain unchanged. The commission found it could lessen the number of streets in the borough consid erably bv calling many streets that were in reality nothing more than extensions of other streets, avenues or roads, by the same name as the thoroughfare of which they were extensions: the recommendation that Washington street ne called Court street. Court is reality an extension of Washington.

beginning trianeruiariv across ruiion su cl, oum where Washington ends. As there are two wasmngton avenues, a wasmugiuu inauc aml a Washinrton Park, it was decidea to wnv with Washinzton street rather than Court street. In recommending the changes above cited! 1 commission had to eo contrary to au i olcj CUstom of having no street cross Fulton slreel it. is the theory that, when Fulton i 3lreet was named in honor of Robert Fulton, i cily falhers in order to further honor nis name determined to allow no street to i rross pulton thus making It the dividin from it The commission has finally approved the following list of changes, each change being the mere absorption of an existing street by anothe exisljng street, of which the street iosing t3 own name is merely an extension: Franklin street Seventeenth Ward, to Kent Front street. Seventeenth Ward, into Brldge street.

Beers, chief of ths Map and Draughting Division in the office of the. Commissioner of Records: George J. Blschof, chief of the Topographical Bureau, and Willis R. Tenney, chief ol' the Map Room. Bur ol' Highways.

These gentlemen, who have had largo experience in such work, looked over the maps and approved of the changes of the names of street extensions recommended by the commission. MOHAWK TESTIMONIAL DINNER. A testimonial dinner will be tendered to Congressman elect Frank E. elect William E. Melody.

ofi mated his getting control of the company by getting a postponement of the annual meeting. Mr. Gates afterward went to court and got an order for a meeting on December 10. Since thai time the supposed "Gould Hawley Har riraan" combination, which Mr. Gould has re pudiated.

came into the fight by asking for proxies. It was a matter of conjecture whether this combination was to take the side of Mr. Osgood, in order to prevent Mr. Gates disturbing the Interests of the railroads which do bAainesr, with the Fuel and Iron Company until Mr. Osgood in a circular to stockholders asked that they give proxies to him, and not to either the Gould Huwley I larri man people or to Gates.

In order to preserve the independence of the company. Then it was supposed that. the Gould Haw ley Harrlmans were going to join forces with Mr. Gates. Now.

with apparently four Interests out for control, and nobody outside knowing how they are going to combine, the street is all at sea. A prominent member of the Gould faction, who is unnamed, is quoted as saying that careful reading of the Hawley Harriman proxies discloses a clause which It. must have been hoped would escape the notice of those to whom it was sent, this clause providing that the proxy holders are empowered not only to vote at the annual meeting, but "to take all such proceedings of whatever nature as they may deem necessary and to sign any writing or instrument in behalf aud in the name of the undersigned" that is, the man the proxy. Under such a proxy, the man is quoted as declaring, there is practically no limit tu the litigation and expense in which the proxy holders might involve the proxy givers. ntrol of the Colorado Fuel and Iron Com nv was developed on Saturday by the refu A further incident in the contest for tne con panv was developed on Saturday sal of the Knickerbocker Trust Company, th transfer agents of the company in this city, to furnish the Hawley Harriman committee with a list of the fuel company's stockholders.

It is probable that this incident will lead to some interesting developments as is foreshadowed in the following circular: "To the stockholders of the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company: "The undersigned ha.ve been unable to obtain a list of the stockholders of the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company from the transfer agents of the company In Xew York, the Knickerbocker Trust Company, and respectfully ask that you withhold your proxies from other appiicants until receipt of our communication after we obtain a copy of the list of stockholders, which we hope will be not later than Mondav.

C. Ocgood of the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company says that neither he nor the management have placed any obstacles In the way of Edwin Hawley or E. H. Harrlman in obtaining a list of the stockholders of the company from the Knickerbocker Trust Company, its transfer agent, and that, so far as he knows he or the management has no objection to them or anybody else obtaining such a list. Further than this.

Mr. Osgood refused to make any statement whatever concerning the peculiar situation now existing in the affairs of that company. Officials of the Knickerbocker Trust Company declined this morning to make any statement concerning the circular issued by MesBrs. Hawley and Harriman. Xellher would the officers of the trust company say whether they would give the required list to Messrs.

Ha wley and Harriman or not. Later in the day it was said that the reason why Messrs. Hawley and Harriman failed to obtain the list of stockholders of Colorado Fuel and Iron was that there had boon so many transfers of stock up to the clost. of business on Saturday, the time fixed for the closing of the books, that It was impossible to make up the list, for several hours. Under these circumstances me.j trust company was obliged to refuse Messrs.
