Councillor Foster objected to the payment of items _which were not included in the estimates and which comprised the Pflvment oi’ $100 ior repairs to the Police Patrol repairs to Market Hall boiler and other items.

A letter from J. W. McCallister, 80 Weymouth Street, City, ior per- mission to open n. lunch counter on wheels on the Brace Block we! read and discussed. Some thought permission should be given, provid- ed that 3, restaurant license be tak- en out and the m rmmtions com plied with.

A request for a pension was r681‘! ,from the wife of the late Charles ‘Cameron, City Police Mflflaall ior 53 years. The letter stated that ti‘!!! salary recKvcd by the late Police Marshall was insufficient to make permanent provision for his family- His Worship, Mayor Prowse and Councillor's Holman and Foster spoke oi this. Councillor Foster averred it would not suglflent the estimates as provision had been made thereiil for a City employee who had since died without hsvinl had time to use any of it. The spen- glon was granted.

Councillor Fosterthought some fund should be set aside for sull- port of dependents oi City employ- ees when they should die. Coun- oilior Bourke was in favor.

Councillor Reardon inquired what system is being followed in div- iding the work among the unem- ployed. Mr. Messervy replied they were hired by the week, preference to Married men. Councillor Rcardon thought there was discrimination. His Worship thought Mr. Roardon ought to confer privately with the City Engineer.

There was no report from the Tender Committee.

The Property Committee report was plesented by Councillor Mac- Dougai. There are 14 men employ- ed on the breastwork. They are waiting ior a shipment of lumber and ties.

There are some trees rot- ting about town.

His Worship said he was person- ally not satisfied with the way the unemployment relief work was pro- gressing. The lumber was ordered 2i days ago and had not yet arrived. Men should get more than i0 days work, he thought. As soon us the lumber gets here, more men should be put to work. If this is not done. the City will have to support them throughout the winter. His Wor- ship had interviewed thc Prfllnlel‘ in an eiiort to secure more money ior relief in the City.

PEIPING, Oct. lib-Japanese mil- itary aeroplanes todayswcpt within 100 miles of Peiplng, dropping bombs at Tan Tsu Shan during the entraining of the south Chinese seventh division, according to a communique issued here by Marshal Chang l-lsueh Liang, Chinese Gov- emor of Manchuriu.

The bombing attack was the sec- ond within a week on the troops oi Chang lisueh Liang and apparent- ly was in accordance with the an- nouncemcnt of the Japanese army commander at Mukdcn, that drastic measures would be taken to prevent Chang from re-establlsillng a Man- churian Government hostile to Ja- pan.

Word received here from Nanking said President Chiang Kai Shek had issued orders to the Kinhan railway to prepare 100 trains to transport an army noithward. This action was interpreted as bucking up his state- ment yesterday that he was pre- pared to go to war with Japan un- less the League of Nations succeed- ed in settling the dispute by peace- ful means.

Bandits looted mihvay stations on the Pc-iping-Mukcicil railway iinc today, held up and robbed a train and beat oil a guard of Chincs soldiers. Thirty casualtirs were re- ported.
