"tncenfer with the Hoard o( Audit and Finance in regard to makm? some sm:- ablc arrangement for a market house for the tiso of the city, said commit lee to report as fully as possible," beg leave respectfully to report that at their; re quest, the Hoard of Audit finance appointed a committee of three to con fer with your committee, and that to gether they have given the matter named in your resolution eareiul anu deliIcrato consideration. We believo it to be conceded by ninc- tenths of tho taxpayers of the city that the present market system, or lack ol r..l .1 system, is at onco uisraceiu', unuger ous and detrimental, and we think the necessity is imperative to provide, as soon as possible, such properly regu lated markets as will ensuro the ob servance of those sanitary laws, the neglect of which cannot fail to be dan gerous to a populous community, in this latitude; give such conveniences as are of o-jual advantaco to buyer and seller of grocn produce; provjdo proper pro tection and shelter for the numerous country producers who daily attend our markets ; and, at the same time, ensure to the city that revenue to which it is entitled, and which nil well-regulated cities derive from its public markets. The sanitary questions involved seemed to us of paramount importance, and we thercforo obtained the opinions of your Superintendent of , Health and other prominent physicians, and webe leveto ask your careful perusal of their able communications, which we submit herewith, and make part of our report, marked respectively A, B and C. There is certainly neither economy nor prudence in maintaining an atmos .phero and surroundings favorable to the spread of those indigenous or imported malirnant diseases to which our climate lavs us liable: and when wo consider what would bo tho disastrous conso rt uenccs of an epidemic to our social and industrial interests, ten times the anion nt necessary to prevent the con tamination of our streets and buildings by the impure accumulations; unavoida ble In the trainc liircsn nieaxs, usn anu Tegetables, and provide our citizens with opportunity for obtaining fresh food in the best condition conveniently and cheaply, would not be ill-cxpcudcd. v e consiuer tuai in a city ui poj nlAtion and nrctensions of ours tho oc conation and contamination of its prin- rfnil atiwt bv such traffic as has of late been tho custom, is a nuisance to, and imposition, upon, the general public, and .the consequent nec rsAxryf efforts to mainta.n cleanli ness ft Ur upon the city with out any adequate return in kind. We believe it to be universally conced ed that a city is entitled to a revenue from its markets over and above tho cost ol maintaining them, but our city has, under existing circumstances, been deprived of this revenue lor nearly two years, besides being put to considerable additional cost in its efforts to keep measurably clean the streets now being abused. Tho city of Raleigh, we are informed, derives a revenue of over $4,000 from buildings not as well adapt ed to the purpose as they niisht be. -JX sub-committee was appointed to ascertain the probable cost ofl various sites suggested for a market which committee reported as follows 3 "To the Joint Committee of Confer from the Hoard of Aldermen and Board of Audit and Finance ol the city of Wilmington: . Tour -sub-committee, appointed to examine into tho probable cost and adaptability of various sites suitable for the erection of a city market, jrespect fully report that they have done so in regard to the only locations that seemed to them desirable and attainable, j keep ing in view the important considerations of cost, ccntrality, drainage facilities, the relations of each to the current; couro of trade, and the accommoda tion likely to be afforded o .tho. largely increased tvnd growing tradcj in farm and water products seeking a market 111 our city.

Huggixs. I W. R. Kenan." Tour committee concurs unanimous ly with the conclusion of the sub-committee that the cost of the sites on Sec ond street puts those locations out of the question, to say nothing of the fact that a market there would afford no better protection to carts and their contents, J .L . A i rrur nor give any reuei to tue suecuj. xua estimate us to the cost of a structure on Third street does not include anything for enlarging and repairing the drain, which is the only outlet for the . waste waters from that site- In heavy rains it now becomes choked, and we think it would be necessary to enlarge it. Thi3 would be quite expensive, as it runs under the buildings on several blocks, and would increase the cost of building on that site probably to thirty five thousand dollars. Tho location of the new market house on Front street is not without objection, J 1 1 i 1 it 1 anil it is proDaDiy larger man requireu for present needs, but to transfer the markets there would be no more violent change to the current course of trade than a removal to any point other than at tlic intersection of Market and Sec ond streets. The site has; decided ad- vintages in a sanitary point of view, and we have our doubts asj to whether it would be wise to select any location not adjacent to the river. ( The property controlled by the Wilmington Market Company in cludes also a building on Fourth street, valued, with the. site, at twenty-five hundred dollars. These buildings were built lor the purpose, are ready for immediate use, and will afford all the market accommodations our people will need for many years. We arc informed the first cost of the property two years ago, when the labor and materials were cheaper, was' over forty-four thousand dollars. It the city could purchase it at a reasonable Ericc, we think it .'ar preferable to uilding, for in such undertakings cor porations generally have to pay dearly, even should there be no opportunity for corrupt jobbing, which is not impossi ble. A revenue could be obtained soon er, for, with the markets owned and controlled by the "city we believe such legislation could be readily obtained in January as would riiake them at once popular and profitable. We j think the income would soon become sufficient to pay the interest on the cost, and create a sinking fund which would before many years liquidate the debt incurred. To induce such legislation before purchasing the property might lose us the opportunity ot buying a valuable estate cheap, by opening the way to, and inviting efforts to put in 'force, a contract entered into by your rWp.wr' . with the Wilmington Market Com Dan v. the provisions of which are obnoxious to many citizens, and hot considered advantageous to the city. While we do not admit the valid ity ot that contract,- it is undeniable, that so far as it lies in tho power of a Hoard of Aldermen- alone to-creato- a legal obligation, the City is bound by it. Opinion lias differed as to whether the approval of the Board of Audit and Fnance was necessary, in this instance, and the Market Company will hardly abandon whatever rights it may have acquired, or permit the erection of other buildings for market purposes, without intcrDosinsr le-jral obstructions-" and resorting to the courts to define and establish their claims.

Committee Board, of Aldermen to inquire into necessity of providing Market House jor Uity: ' Deak Sib: I have received your favor of 19th inst., and in reply would state that 1 believe there is an urgent need for a market house and know of no city, es pecially in this latitude and sitifhted on the coast, that lias not a suitable - build ing where meats, ' vegetables and fish can be exhibited and disposed of except our own city. . ' : -!. The building whicli you speak of. that has been erected for that purpose, and which I : have examined on several (many) occasions, is not only an orna ment to Wilmington but is especially adapted to the- purposes for which it was intended, being large, with a very high ceiling, where the air can have tree circulation and well ventilated,' making it cool and thereby preventing meats and other articles from becoming pu trescent, making it all that is necessary in a sanitary point" for preserving arti cles of diet and thus contributing to the health of all the1 citizens. Its proximi ty to the river I consider of great advant age, in a sanitary view, as a great many fish that are often brought to our mar ket dead and often in a state of decom- Dosition could bo landed at the wharf iiia live and healthy condition. The building being very spacious would nec essarily answer. all purposes for dispos ing of meats and dispensing with a great many of the present meat shops, which are badly contrived place's for preserving meatT and' also preventing' putrefaction. -! There being also a good shelter on both sides of the building for! the pro tection of horses and carts, laden: with articles of diet, from the sun and rain, renders the building still more adapted to our present wants. I believe in a sanitary point that there is an impera tive demand for a good and suitable market house, and the building we have though not near as costly as the market houses" in our sister cities of Charleston and Savannah. They really have no advantage over ours as .to , ventilation and other sanitary conveniences Very rcspectluliy Tour obdient servant, J. C. Walkeu, f Supt. Health, Wilmington. N, C.f July 19. 1882. To the Joint Committee, from Hit Board of Aldermen and Boardof Audit and Finance to Examine the Fitness of lie Kcw Market House on Front Stretl- GENTLE3IEN:-r- , ; I trust that you will pardon the step I have taken in asking., your, attention to the adaptability of the New Market House on Front street, for , the general purposes of a rharket. I have examined with much interest the market houses in CharlestonAugusta, Savannah," Mo bile and New Orleans, - and' none of these buildings, except, perhaps, the one in Savannah, have anything like the advantages, in a sanitary ivicw. 1 The .Wilmington building is located near the river, within easy reach of suf ficient water for thorough cleansing. It has a southerly and westerly exposure to the prcvai ng winds. The oof is abundantly lighted and ventilated. The drainage into the river is 'admirably provided for: ' The accommodation for dealers and customers is such that they arc protected from inclement weather; and market products exposed 'for sale are secured against dust.1 The whole business can be conducted under the eye of a health" inspector, abolish ing -the" filth and harmful disposal of refuse in back rooms. In short, tlic adoption of such a building for the gen eral purposes of & market (I am speak ing from a snuhary rintoview)wbuld accomplish for oar city a sanitary im provement which has been greatly needed in this city fqr years; It is needless to point out to you that a market house should be scrupulously clean, that the food exposed lor sale should be in clear view of the customers and of the sanitarylnspcctor; the ven tilationt light, abundant water, thor ough drainage are matters of necessity. These ends arc not now accomplished in the present condition of things, but the proper functions of the city in tho management of its market business could bo satisfactorily done with the fa cilities the New Market building affords. I am, very respectluiiy. fTuoiiAs F. Wood. r " ' ' . ..... .. 1 ... , ! ' -1 : - -f . .: .. , ,i 5 1882. NO.- 237. Wilmington, N.
