Kingston, Sept, 27.-- (To the Edi- tor:)-----Recently, at the special re- quest of Inspector Timmerman, (re- presenting the garbage committee), I passed up a good job I had in view, $0 as to lend a hand in clearing away the present garbage collection diffi- culty. On the question of wages, the In- spector informed me that I would re- ceive $2.50 a day of ten hours, for the use of my horse and harness, (the city to furnish the waggon), and $1.50 a day for my services, making a total of $4.00 a day, which I agreed to accept. Imagine my surprise upon report | ing for duty on Monday morning up- | on being informed that the garbage committee had instructed the inspec. tor to only pay $2.50 a day, for the and harness, in- Aldermen Wright and Litton, the apparent chief-pusher on the com- niittee, (both public ecoptractors,) are compelled to pay $2.25 a day of eight hours to hod-carrier's and la- { borers, . while the average earnings of a man with a horse and dump cart are $4.00 a day. How then in view of the present cost of living, and buying and main- taining a horse and harness, can a mun Sebsist and do the work on $2.50 a day? As.a ratepayer and con- tributor to the cost of this néw fan- gled incinerator and garbage collec- tion system, I want these two worth- ies to kindly explain.

The Council chamber was of such a temperature as to put a damper upon the ardor of some aldermen to drift into ny {lengthy heated discussion, and the Council session concluded at 10.30 | o'clock. A by-law was passed fixing the li- cense fees for carters and cabmen, the increased fees mot taking effect | until January 1st 1916. By-laws were passed for the con- | struction of twelve concrete side- walks; but one presented for the construction of a maefidam roadway with concrete curb and" gutter on Brock street from Barrie to Alfred street failed to carry. A by-law to amend the by-law re | garding the fire limits and preven- | tion of fires, so as to allow the stor- age of twelve, instead of two bar- rels of gasoline, was referred to the | Fire and Light Committee. These recommendations of the Fin- ance 'Committee were passed: that { the account of Smith Elliett for | $160 for collecting city garbage 1 from Sept. 11th to 20th be paid; | that $100 be granted to the Kingston | Industrial Fair. - | On motion of Ald. Nickle the Coun- | cil decided to give free light and wa- | ter 'for any building in which over- | seas troops are quartered during the winter. The buildings at present in view are the artillery barracks, Cer. edl building and the City Hall. Ald. Couper moved seconded by Ald. Graham that Brock street, from Barrie to Alfred be repaired the same as on the same street between Bagot and Barrie. The motion was carried. Communications Read. These communications were ferred to committees: Registrar Queen's University noti fying €ouncil that the Old Collegiate Institute Building will be placed at the disposal of the Militia Depart- ment.

Merrill cleared for Oswego, to load coal for Bay of Quinte ports. arrived from Montreal, light, will clear for Mont#al with one coal and one grain barge; steamer India pasted down last night, with grain from Port Colborne for Montreal. The s steamer Hamilton passed down ¥ p. m. Monday; Acadian down '4 p. m. Monddy; Ames down 8 p. m. Monday; Calgarian, down 4.30 a. m. Tuesday; Fairfax, down 9.20 a. m. Tuesday; Haddington is due up 2 p. m. Tuesday. The Dundurn exists no longer as a steamer. A Whig reporter was one of the first to tramp the deck since it has been converted into a barge, shortly after the old freight- { er arrived in port on Tuesday morn: | ing as.a consort of the steam barge 'Water Lily. For over a year the Dundurn has been undergoing re- pairs at Picton and the entire upper cabin containing the state rooms has been torn away deaving nothing but a bare deck with hatchways Tor storing freight within the hold. The machinery - has also been taken out and 'the barge Dundurn is expected to be one of the best carriers along the lakes. The barge was taken to Port Dalhousie on Tuesday afternoon to be loaded. . Some Fine Samples. S. Irish, Cataraqui, has shown the Whig some very fine samples of sec- | picked on his farnt last Sunday. In fact, he was able to secure a quart or more for table use.

Only Three Batteries Mentioned-- However, Kingston May Get a New { Battalion That Col. Hemming Will Soon Ask For. An Ottawa despatch says: "Troops 4 in training in Canada this winter will be quartered in the Third Divi~| sion as follows: | "One battalion and 400 Engineers | in Ottawa; three batteries in Kings- ton; two companies each at Peter- boro and Belleville, and one com- | pany each at Lindsay, Cobourg, Pic- ton and Napanee." | From the above it would appear | that Kingston was not to have any | infantry quartered here for the win- | ter. It was expected that the 59th | would remain here. However, the | above allocation may not be final. It | may be that the will be sent overseas before the snow flies. Col. Hemming told the Whig this morning that he intended in a very | short time to ask Yor permission to mobilize another battalion here, and Kingston may get it for the winter. This city has-amplé accommodation for a battalion of infantry and three batteries. i 'Saturday Specials POPULAR MUSIC, 2 for 25¢c. The largest and most complete stock in Canada to select from.

The Whig thinks it to be the duty of the Mayor and the Aldermen to recognize the wounded home- comers, and not allow them to pass to their homes without a word of cheer. Some 'means should be found to keep the Mayor and Aldermen posted as to the time of the arrival of Kingston's wounded.
