FRIDAY, JULY 29, The Market Question- Committees from the Board of Audit and Finance and the Board of Aldermen met yesterday afternoon to consider the petition recently submitted to them by the Wilmington Market Company, but adjourned until this afternoon, when final cial action will probably be taken. "As there seems to ba considerable interest manifested in this matter, we publish herewith the prayer of the petitioners: TO THE HONORABLE, THE MAYOR AND BOARD OF ALDERMEN OP THE CITY OF WILMINGTON AND THE BOARD OF' AUDIT AND FINANCE OF SAID CITY : . Gentlemen : . . . ; V Your petitioners, the Wilmington Market Company, respectfully showeth : That, early in the year 1879 a number of the citizens of this City, induced by the very apparent want and necessity of a building proper, convenient and com fortable, for the purposes of public mar kets, and still further persuaded by the opinion and desires of a. large number 01 the citizens of said City, to wit, 2,000, as expressed.in a petition an nexed hereto signed by them and request ing the Board of Aldermen to aid and promote so laudable an enterprise, form ed a corporation for the purpose of pro curing eligible locations, and erectiDg thereon commodious andhandsome build ings, suitable and proper for public mar kets, the use and benent 01 which might accrue to the City without increasing the burden of taxation upon the citizens. . Upon the presentation of the said pe tion and certain proposals of your peti tioners to the Board of Aldermen, and after due consideration and negotiations, a contract was at last prepared and exe cuted between the City of Wilmington and 'your petitioners, providing among other things that if your petitioners would erect certain buildings for public markets, according to certain plans and specifications therein agreed upon, the said City wonld have, hold and use said buildings as' public markets, paying the consideration in said contract agreed up on for The same. ; Thereupon your petitioners, relying upon the said contract in good faith and in pursance thereof, purchased the land, and, at great expense and outlay of money, erected thereon handsome, con venient and commodious buildings, suit able for public markets and in strict com pliance with the plans and specifications selected by the Board of Aldermen, and tendered the " same to the City. And the Board of Aldermen, after a careful survey and examination of said build ings, duly received and approved the same as being according to contract. Then after and subsequent to the erec tion, completion and acceptance of said buildings by the City, legal objections being suggested to some of the pro vis ions of said contract, by the attorneys of the City, it was agreed by all parties that another and different contract should be entered into in reference to said mar ket,which was accordingly drawn and ex ecuted bv the .Board ot Aldermen and your petitioners on the 7th day of De cember, 1880, whereby your petitioners conveyed to the said City of Wilmington m fee simple (except the market in the Fifth Ward which was for a term o years) the said lands and premises with the improvements thereon and the City is now, and has been since the said 7th day of December, 1880, the legal owners and in possession thereof, subject how ever only to the condition that the City on its part would keep and perform cer tain covenants, agreements and stipula tions m said contract contained. The Board of Audit and Finance was re auested to endorse and approve the said contract and another petition annexed hereto, signed by a large number 01 citizens, rep resenting $2,735,000 of the taxable prop erty in said city, was presented to the Bord of Audit and Finance, earnestly requesting and urging said Board to en dorse and approve the contract last above mentioned. But a majority of the Board refused to endorse said contract for reas ons assigned in a communication to the Board of Aldermen; since which time the city, though exercising control over said buildings, has done nothing towards the performance of said contract, while your petitions have at all times been ready and willing to perform the same in good faith. Upon the foregoing fact your pe titions submit: that as they were induced to undertake the heavy expense of pur chasing lands and erecting thereon build ings suitable for public markets and did erect the same, in strict compliance with the plans and specifications prescribed by the city of Wilmington, and in pursuance of and relying upon the contract solemn ly entered into with said city and at the suggestion and request of a large num ber of citizens a strong equity at least exists in theirbehalf which should induce the authorities of the city to take some action which will relieve your petitioner from the heavy and grievous loss which must necessariiv result to them from a refusal on the part of the city so to do. as the buildings are totally unfit and can not be used for any other purpose than as CityJMarkes; where forej-our petition ers ask that your honorable bodies, the Mayor and Board of Aldermen and the Board of Audit and Finance, will duly consider of these matters and take such action in the premises as equity and good conscienc;shaJIJdictatefand your petition ers will in the same spirit entertain any proposition the city authorities may sub mit in this behalf.
