A letter from the Peterborough Chamber of Commerce called at- lention to the fact that the twenty- flftb annual convention of Domin- |°!l Fire Chiefs would" be held in Pctsrborough on August 20, 30, 31 and Sept. 1, and expressed the hope ‘hit representatives from Charlotte- town would\attend.

Street Repairs

Councillor Reardon for the Street Committee reported that work had W!!! bflsun repairing the streets. The repairs would be completed by the‘ end cf the week.

Councillor Whear asked the City Clerk to write the School Board to find out the quantity, kind, and price of coal being purchased by the Board. '

Councillor Henneasey remanked that the report of the police activi- ties contained no reference to rob- beries in the city. Councillor Hol- man read a 1st of robberies in which, convictions had been secured since the first of thoyear. .

The Chief of Police stated that during the last year the force had been lmdermaimed, and had been two men short. He thought that the force was doing very well in view of circumstances. At the present time there was a. great deal of un- employment in the city and condi- tlons were very trying. During Aug- ust only three breaks had been re- ported. a A sharp cross-fire between the Chief of Police and Councillor Hen- nessey ensued. The latter asserted that the police were asleep, that cars were driving around without lights. and that the Chief was to blame. 'I'ha.Chief twisted that order had been never better maintained, and that Charlottetown was s. remark- ably law abiding community.

Light Committee

Councillor Holman for the Light Committee reported that so far as Council and Light Committee were concerned, the new rate for electric power had not been received or ap- proved. He understood that the Maritime Electric Company had five new rates. ‘The Public Utility Board had accepted the new rate. l-le un- derstood that the new rate was an interim rate, to be effective while the Maritime Electric Company was being investigated by experts. Citi- zens had received their bills for July from the Company, and from rc- pofl-s received, and bills shown one would come to the conclusion that instead of there being a reduction of $0,000, there had been an increase of $00,000. A few persons had been found who had benefited, but in most cases the bill of the small con- sumer had been increased. All that could bo done by the Council was to request from the Government a speedy investigation. The Govem- ment had instructed the Public Util- ities Board to proceed with a thor- ough investigation at the earliest possible moment.

The Company had foolishly changed the rate. As regards the 10% discount, the matter had been approved by the Board. Ten per cent had been simply added to the bill and then taken off again, if the bill were paid before the tenth of the month. The rate had been fylsd. and accepted by the Public Utilities Board. The Council could only urge n complete and thorough investiga- tion. The Government and individ- ual citizens had Joined as complaint- ants. A two hour meeting had been held during the day with the Gov- ernment, and Councillor Holman

had every hope that the investiga- tion would be held in the near fut.-

pended.

bili received by the city had been sent out from the Associated 01s and Electric Oomblni- and since that time the name on the form had been the Maritime Ilsctric Com- pany. g Councillor Holman stated that J. P. Morgan controlled the whole cut- fit. The Acting Premier was doing all possible to bring the matter to a successful issue, he stated. Councillor Wbcar attuned the im- portance of being prepared in dsal- ing with the question. There were difficulties in the case. Some new arrangement would have to be made after Sept. l7. A classification of rates which nobody . could under- stand had been made after an in- vestigatlon had been asked for. The Public Utility Board had approved of the rates, but had not set a date for the investigation. Councillor Kennedy stated that certain technicalities would have to be ironed out before the Board would act. The Utility Board had been in existence for six years and had done nothing.

Resolutions were passed calling for tenders for polloelnenc uniforms and appointing Messrs. Sixtus Mc- Lellan and Alex MacDonald as mem- bers of the Appeal Board. Resolu- tions were also passed authorizing the issuance of $7,000 in debentures for street repairs, and of $13,000 in debentures for direct relief.
