Regarding the city council's request for more light at the government dry- dock, F. S. Rees, government dock master, reported to Eugene D. la: fleur, chief enginecr of the public works department, that no further lighting is required at the Kingston dry<dock, as dry-dock property should be considered the same as private pro- perty. At the dry-dock, when repairs are being made, hghts are all on. Mr. Rees points out that the Kingston Foundry, Anglin's, and the city water works wharves adjoining do pot have any lights at night. He says he con- siders a Tight on the dock wharf would lead to accidents, as it would attract boys and children. At present when the dock lights are going there are so many boys, that he is afraid some of them would fumble in and get hurt There have not been any accidents from vessels coming to the dock in his time as dockmaster This letter was sent the council as a reply to its request. It was referred to the board of works. Wants The Fair Grounds. W.

Apgrove moved that the mat- ter be left to the city property com- mittee, with power to act. 'This caused some discussion, it being pointed out that it was ingdvisable to take action without due consideration Fiaally it was decided to have the property commitiee report to coun- cil.

The board of works recommended that the offer of Kirby & (o.; Otta- wa, to begin asphalt road paving here on condition that they be allowed to come in and canvass under the local improvement plan, within a district mapped out by the city engineer, be accepted, subject to the approval of the city eouncil. The area covers 32.- 000 square yards, Ald. Elliott wanted to know what the cost was going to be. How much would the property have to pay fcr the pavement 4 square yard or a block. The board of works, he held, should first give this informa- ticn. It would save trouble on all sides, if the cost was known before hand. Ald. Graham stated that if an agreement was entered into with the Kirby company, everything had to Le satisfactory to the hoard of works and the city engineer, including the question of price. The rates could not yet be fixed until measuremer's had been made. Before any work was done, the agreement between the city and the Kirby company had to be ratified by the council. Ald. Elliott ' said the explanation was satisfactory, and he was in fav- or of the report of the board works. T'nerc owners of was considerable discussion ns to whether the city engineer and the hoard of works shoild have the final approval of the secilications and prices. It. was finally decided on mo- tion of Ald. Henderson that the city council should have this power, and a motion was passed making this quite clear, Ald Hoag reported the loss to the department of the horse "Sam," at No. 2 station, which had to le shot L as it was beyond recovery. Ald. Nickle's Statement. When the light, heat and power re- pert was before the council, Ald. Nickle took occasion to read the arti- cle in the Whig of May 14th, rela tive to an interview with Ald. Toye The paragraph read by Ald. Nie.l: wos as follows : "Ald. Nickle, who is a large stock holder in the street railway company, jnmped on me on Monday night," said Ald. Toye, "because 1 had in having yas reduced to one dollar, This, he claimed, was done at the ex- pense of the electrical consumers. But has he stopped to consider that the street railway company is getting power at the expense of all the citi zens. His company is actually pay nr less than cost for power to run the He should have spoken on this side of the light plant question as well, and shown the great benefits his ow corporation is reaping at the ex- pn-e of the citizens in general." 'Ald. Nickle also referred to a Whig editorial in the issue of May 15th uron the same question. He stated that at the first meeting of the coun cil, this year, he intimated that he would not disenss in council matters which involved the street railway However, he would be pleased at any time to meet Ald. Tove on any plat- form, and discuss with him the stret railway' agreement with the city. He would never discuss street railway matters at the council board The conncil adopted the recommen dation of the light, heat and powet committer, that the Kingston Milling comnany be granted privileges similar succeeded ears. to those granted in the original agree ment of December 19h, 1904, for a petiod of ten vears. A bv-law will he passed at the mext meeting of coun- cil. Option On Smelter Site. The following report of the indus tries committee was, on motion of Ald. Elliott, seconded by Ald. Couper adopted : That upon the application of R. E. Cushman for the option to purchase the smelter property, it ix agreed that whereas 33.000 is the amount meg tioned in the matter of the Stanley Smelter Works by-law, April, 1907; for that portion of land the said works or company propose to ocvuv that R.
