Ala. McDiarmidâ€"Clagse 16 of the contract says that if 'my defect is junta! out by comcil it. must be mam within" 10 days or the‘ con-- The street-lighting problem that has so exercised the town for the past two years is again appmaching a crisis. On Monday night coun- cil talked strongly of the Gas Com- pany’s light and the methodsemploy- ed by them and practically declared «that the time was at hand to take steps to cancel the contract, because the company had not lived up to its tame. With this in view, the town solicitor was instructed to notify the company of this contemplated step and to attend a meeting on Honday night at which the contract will be under discusion. A PRIVATE TFBT~ Some time ago Mr. Burgess told council that he would be in town on a. certain night with the government expert and make a: test of the, street light, and asked that representative citizens witness it; On that night Md. McDiarmid, chairman of the Police and Lighting Committee met At Monday night’s meeting of the committee Aid. ‘McDiarmid explain- ed that. the accounts for October and November had not yet been paid 3.. (3mm STILL STAYS It. Burgess and the expert ‘at the station but only to be told that only a. private mt was to be made. Since then nothing further has been heard from Mr. Burgess, but attached to the company's bill for November was a certificate from, Mr. J. K. John- son of Toronto, government gas in- specter, saying that the small lamps we of the candle power_required. Aid. O’ReilIyâ€"No. Nor we won't pay a. cent till we get a. test on the street as the contract calls for. Ald.McDi'armidâ€"The contract ‘ un- fortunately gloes not call. for that sort of test. A certificate gi'that the sort of lamps used will giVe the re- quired light will fulfil the contract; Aid.

O’Reillyâ€"Have the solicitor come here on Saturday night and exâ€" plain our position in this contract. In the meantime let him serve notice upon the company to fulfil the con- tract or that it will be cancelled; Ald. McDiarmidâ€"The clause about purchasing by arbitration is no good either. It does not providé for the patent ; so that if we bought the plant at a valuation, Mr.- Burgess might ask us any price he liked for the right to make the'gas. Ald. O'Reillyâ€"There were extra lamps ordered by council. The conâ€" tract says such extra. lamps are to be installed within six months. That- time is past, with some, and they are not in yet.

O'Reilly believed the Board of Works could look after the work during that time, and the motion carried. Ald. O’Reillyâ€"When Ald. McDiar- mid and the solicitor were ready to drop the charges, I could net. press for going on ; I did not know what evidence they had. I do not agree with Judge Dean, that contracts {or next year’s work should not be let now :.and I can prove thatxhe is wrong. Dr. Barrowsâ€"In jutting tb Chal- mers, the investigation should have gone on. Mayor Ingle spoke of the complaint of the Waterworks superintendent that the firemen do not in some cas- essend in notice of a fire to the pumphouse,‘ and in others do not say when the fire is out. The driver will be asked to give notice' promptly. THE CHALMERS CASE The special meeting of council had been called to consider Commission- er Chalmers’ resignation. Aid. Mc- Diarmid said that there was certain work under the Local Improvement b’w-laws that would need the com- missioner’s attention till the end of the .»~yea.r,- and moved that his resig- nationtbe‘accepted to take efl’ect on J am lst, 1903. Dr. Burrowsâ€"I moved that Chal- mers' resignation be accepted and the inthigation gone on with, but nobody seconded it. Aid: McDiarmidâ€"What was to be gained by going on after Chalmers had resigned ? Ald. J acksonâ€"No member 0! coun- cil did anything to block it: Ald. Jackson denied what the Post had said to the efl'ect that likely the Chalmers investigation had been headed ofl at the court conference by interested aldermen.- It sounded like an inspired article. Dr. Burrowsâ€"I was surprised to hear that Chalmers offered the may.- or his resignation two months ago. Mayor Iqleâ€"Yes : ' he 1":th then; but I told him to stay on or everything would get.
