Ellott, the council, however, took no actiom, and is waiting for Mr. Curtin to take the first step. Among the petitions put before the council there was one from C. A. Smith, of the RX.

Be About $200 (By Staff Reporter) Whitby, Dec. 5--The question of | replacing the bell at the Port Whit- by Fire Station was again under discussion at the meeting of the town fathers last night and again the matter was left over withont definite action other than he de-, cision to take it up with the South Ward Ratepayers' Association. The discussion last evening was precipitated by a letter which was received from a bell foundry giving further information regarding pri- ces and specifications. The price, Jaid down in Whitby, would be sbout $200, and it was mostly over this price that the battle raged. Investigation has been carried on by Councillor Kenny. chairman of the fire and light committee, with the purpose of establishing a ure alarm at the south end fire station more effective than the ome in use now. it was stated by several councillors that the present bell, which has been in a cracked condi. tion for over a year, could not be heard for two blocks, and it was was therefore useless as an effec- tive alarm in case of fire. Mention was made of the possi- bility of installing a more up-to- date system than fire bells, and mention was mrade both of an elec- tric siren and the installation of telephones in the south ward fire- men's homes. It was decided by now getting The Times by mail r boy at the delivery rate of 10¢ the council, however, that no ac. tion should be taken at this meet- ing, and that the whole matter should be left to next year's council for definite action.

R. 0 KEEP AGREEMENT Whitby Council Brings Up an Old Question for Consideration (By Staff Reporger) Whitby, Dec. 6--Echoes of as- pirations of other days were heard at the meeting of the Town Coun- cil last night. The question under discussion was that of inducing the C. N. R. to fulfil the terms of its agreements. The spokesman was Reeve Jackson who referred to the clause: "and that the Railway agrees to build and maintain a bridge over their right-of-way at Brock street, with approaches so graded that it shall be suitable for the passage of modern elec.ric street cars, operated by the muni- cipality or any company which has recelved a franchise from the mu-, nicipality." The document was by-law 626, dated September 15, 1un2, and attache' to it was the and the Grand Trunk Raliway rela- tive to the building of the present station, ete. It was a clause from this agreement that the Reeve was quoting. The agreement had pro- vided for the closing of Byron and Centre streets except for a path across the railway at Byron street, where the railway was giv. en the privilege of erecting their station across Byron stree:. The question under discussion now - lates to the keeping in repair the Brock street overhead briage, the complete closing of street by the new freight shed, and the condition of the railroad eros- sings at Dundas and Garaen streets, The council is not pressing ti Railway to keep the bridge in « dition for street ear traffic No. | agree- | ment between the Town of Whitby | foot- | Byron | he 1 | etween | 1- | East, and COUNTY WARDEN SEEKS MAYORAL Mayor Holgate, of Bowm ville, to Be Opposed By County Warden Elliott (By Staff R eporter) Bowmanville, Dec. 6.--A fight f the mayor's chair is assur 0 Bowmanville when the annou ! was made last night by Warden M J.
