A few minutes after eight Mayor Havi- 1 after informing land took the pi atiorim, ana ng | those present of the purpose for whic h the} meeting was called, asked that a ehairma be appointed. Mr. Archibaid hennesy was moved to that position by Mr. Philip i | j Large brent vir.

Then there was auother delay. D one showed any signs of coming forward to address the meeting, the chairman was again about putting the motion of adjourn- ment; but Mr. R. B. Norton mounted the platform and made a few remarks in refer- ence to what he considered ge con: ae duct of thuse responsible for the As i , 5 aba the strat } calling: of Byrne came forward. After seme opening remarks, in reference to the purpose for which the meeting was called, ha proceed. ed to discuss the question at issue. Phe question of civic reform, he said, was evi- dently now uppertnost in the minds of_ the people. The matter of the abolition of the wards and the elect ion ot Comneiliors by a . ° ¥ collective vote was unique when was first mooted in 188), and it was unique now. Summerside was the ouly city he knew of that had adopted the collective vote methed of election; it was not in vogue,so far ashe knew,inany part of kurope or Americas. And was it wise for Char- lottetown to adopt itin the face of this fact? If it was right for the eity to adopt the collective vote plan, it was equally right that it should apply to electors for the Provincial Legislature and for the Dominion House of Common But he thought that such an airangement would lead to an absurdity. [twas claimed that there was a great inequality under the present management. but was it perfect equality ? larger than Ward rd o°'a possible tu always have Because Ward 5 is a little 4 it is proposed to give W representation. Jie had that. t double ho obje« tion to » doubie the re Ward 4 is a little VW ry ad Ward 5 is entitled t presentation it has now. larger than Ward 1, and when that becomes larger than it is now he favor giving it increased representation, too. The other wards should remain as they are would are. He then entered into a defence of the administration of the present Council Board, which he claimed had managed civic affairs well. He knew the feeling of the maj wity of the Councillors and he knew that not one of them would stand in the way of the abolition of the wards if they thought the citizens wanted such a change made. But it was his belief that if we had the col- lective vote now there would be an agita- tion ou feot in favor of the ward system. Mr. Alexander MacKinnon said. that a change in the manner of electing did not of necessity mean a change in the personel] ot the present City Council. He (Mr. M.) was not here as an advocate for the abolition of the wards, but as an advocate of fair play to all, They wanted equal right, whether they were obtained by the collective vote or the running up of the wards to six or seven it mattered not. He showed by the returns of the last provincial election that Wards 1, 2 and 3 had six representatives for a total we eae tea 1i2, W Is 4 and 5, wich a total vote of L076, had only four represen. tatives. This was a state of affairs that should not exist. Wards 4 and 5 were ne- glected, the other three wards practically controlling the city theught that if the people Were f1\ pport inity they would decide in fat OF f sri ing equal rights to all. Mr. McCoubr: ; made short speech in favor of justice for wards 4 and 5 which, he claimed, had been neglected in the matter of improvements to its streets and sidewalks. Councillor Douse, He said that during the four or five years he had been Chairman of the Street Committes he had always tried to do the same for Ware Five as for the other Wards. It had got its fair proportion of the moneys expended in recent years. The vote quoted by th: previous speaker, viz.; that -cast at the Provincial election when each ‘elector only had one vote, was unfair; he should have given that cast at the civic election in order to show the vote in the different’ wards. But the great object with some ot the so-called reformers, was that they wanted to get the present Councillors out and get in themselves. The speaker then referred to the bad state of the civi finances when his party were elected to th Council, and severely criticized the actin of the Water Commissioners in the matter of the reservior, the filling of the trenches by the waterworks’ contractors, and the doing of some work for the contractors by a firm, one of the members of which wa: a Water Commissicner;. Jp conclusion, h warned the electors to beware of boodlers _Mr. MacKinnon, difepded the Water Commissioners, and explained that the the n followed. i will the mecting.

He did not go into the Barracks. Taylor came along in « few minutes, ang meeting Connolly, pulled a roll of bills out of hs pocket and a big piece of gold, and three or tour small pieces. Witness asked Connolly did Taylor gave him anyof the mongyand he ssid that he gave hima sothenigh: and &4 in paper money. Connolly said: further that on the following Monday Taylor tovk the sovereign from him and gave him a two dollar bill instead. This was all the con- versation witness had with Connolly at the tine. The next conversation witness had with him was on Monday, after he was ar- rested. Ha took him into his private office }and in the course uf conversation with Con- jnolly witness told him he hed last time he jtaiked with him, when he said he had slept jin ‘Taylor's barn, when he (witness) knew ldifferent. C moolly admitted that he had lied to witness then, and admitted aiso that he aud Taylor slept in Lloyd’s house: that jnight. Connolly admitted also that he had lied to witness as to where he parted with Taylor on Sundry, that instead of pirting with him near tue gas-house he Ik fi him on the other shore, near the Ferry Wharf. He said that Taylor was waiting there for John Joy who was to take him to Georgetown. He further said that he had tuld witness the truth about the money when speaking with him the prevjous day. [During the Marshal’s evidence in the forenoon, he fitted the keys found in Tay- lor’s trunk into the lock taken from Wiite’s door and found that two of them opened it. Mr. Peter's, prisoners counsel, therefore asked permission to examine the lock. He was given the lock and after saying it was a very common lock and one that could be easily opened, took a bunch of keys out of his own pocket and easily opened the lock with one of the number.] William Taylor’s evidence, which did not bring out anything new, closed the testimony in the doubloon case for the present, and the case against Taylor and Connolly for breaking and entering the honse of Rev. Fred. E, J Lioyd, was then proceeded with, Mr. Lloyd testified to the condition of thiags in the house before and after it had been entered, and to the loss of a silver mug snd a paic of overshoes, Constable Ress, of Georgetown, gave »vidence to the eifect that at Taylor's request he (the witness) burnt a pair of overshoes which Taylor had on at the time of his arrest’ while on his way to the city by train, and which he (Taylor) claimed hurt his feet. ' Court adjourned until Wednesday fore: noon. The enquiry into the charges against Paylor, Connolly and Joy, was resumed this morning. SS Willism Dockendorff, who resides at the Cross Roads, Lot 48, testified to seeing John doy and the prisoner Taylor in a sleigh on the Georgetowa road, driving towards Georgetown, about five o’clock on the afternoon of Sunday the 22nd of March. Frank Harper said the loek taken from White's door was a cheap one, and he wire. Joseph Taylor’s evidence was unim- oortant, D. Logan, jailor at Georgetown related ‘ conversation he had with the prisoner Caylor in which he Taylor, admitted the »vershoes he had on were the ones taken ‘rom Mr. Lloyd’s residence, and said that Smith was innocent of taking White’s mouey.
