CITY COUNCIL MEETING.

-_—_— ——

Electric Lights, Sewerage and Market Tolls Receive Attention.

The regular meeting of the City Council was held last evening, Mayor Warbur- ton presiding. Every member of the Board was in his place with the exception of Counc lior Lyons. The students of the Charlottetown Business College occupied seats in the audiorium, among the number being a goodly proportion of the tair sex,

After routine business a letter was read from M.& D. C. McLeod regarding the action of the Chief Engineer at the fire in McMillan’s coal shed and again asking for an investigation, The damages are now placed at $377. The letter was laid on the table.

A letter was read from Rev. James Simp~ son complaiaing ot the removal of the electric light from the corner of Rochford and Fitzroy streets, and asking that it be | replaced. A petition was also read from a number of people living on Brighton Road aud vicinity asking thatthe light be re- stored. The light inquestion, it may be added, was placed in the vicinity of St, James’ Church, and another petition was | submitted asking that it be allowed to remain there,

As a way out of the difficulty Council. lor Nicholson moved that Councillor Horne be authorized to have a light placed ator nearthe cornerof Rotcnford and Fitzroy streets. Councillor Hooper se- conded the motion.

Councillor Crabbe moved in amendment ; that Councillor Horne be authorized to! confer with a committee representing all parties to the petitions respecting the plac - | ing of the light. Councilior McCarron seconded the motion,

Mr. Aitken thanked the Council for the attention paid the remarks of tke delegates. They only wanted to be as~ sured that the fire department was pro- vided wiih sufficient good hose ; they were not asking for the purchase of any hose that was not necessary. He trusted that look into the matter very carefu ly.

Councillor Taylor presevted a report from the market committee recommend- ing that the tolls be not abolished as pe. titioned fur by a number of merchants. The report was adopted.
