O'Reilly, relating to his claim for $100 damages for injuries sustained by Mrs. O'Reilly, who slipped and fell onthe ice at the Hovper's, in March, 1884. teron the table so that pulnp near He laid the let- the matter might }be enquired to and reported upon at next leeting. His Worship also explained that he had made some enquiries into the case of Mrs. Hatch, who, it had been reported to the Clerk, was dying of starvation, and ascer ever for the report. Councillor Kelly drew attention to the Park was falling into decay, and suggested that it would be well to sell it. Councillor Crabbe thought so also, moved that the building and tank be at auction. Councillor Curtis seconded the which was carried. Councillor Horne presented a _ petition iwking that the name of Long Street be changed to Chestnut Street, and moved that the request be granted. Councillor T. A. McLean motion.——Carried. Councillor Kelly directed attention to the want of a tire limit, and thought it were time some action were taken in the matter. Councillor Morris asked the Chairman of the Street Committee if it was intended that the obstruction at the foot of Creat George Street should remain there all winter blocking up the landing. Councillor Kelly said the would be removed at once. and sold motion, seconded the obstruction Street Committee intended taking in the matter of the obstruction at the West. end of Water Street. Councillor Kelly, in reply, moved that Councillor McRae be authorized to have the obstruction removed at once. Councillor Crabbe seconded the motion. Councillor McRae declined to accept the position. - City Surveyor be instructed to enquire into aud report upon the number of steps. cellar hatches, ete. Councillor T. A. McLean motion. —Carried. seconded the corder He wanted to know if the Charlottetown Waterworks Company intended doing any- thing in the matter, and if so, when. His Honor said he was not in a_ position to give the desired information as his tele- gram to New York was yet unanswered. He explained that he had been working hard, but found great @Jiculty in inducing capitalists to go intw the matter as the $3000 offerefl by the city was too smail. Councillor Haszard said he been had Charlottetown Waterworks C not look business-like, and he thought the Council should take some action in the matter. Councillor Curtis said that it looked as if the old obstructionists were now the most anxious to have water brought in. He thought the work should have been com- menced long ago. His insurance agent had told him that as soon as waterworks were put in he would receive a reluction of $5 in his rates, and if no information was forthcom- ing at the next regular meeting he would favor calling for tenders. His Honor said he did not think any person vould be found to put water in uuder the Company's charter, a3 it was too low, and a living existence could not be made out of it. Councillor A. A. McLean was glad to have Councillor Curtis over to the water- works side. He thought the majority of people were in favor of letting the contract by tender. A fair chance had been given the Waterworks Company, but they had so far failed to take action, and he thought it was time they notified the Council if they intended doing anything this year. Waterworks mean a large saving to the city for insurance and the Company should move at once. Tenders should be adver- tised for at once and extensively. The Char- lottetown Waterworks Company had not a from abroad could come here and put in the waterworks and obtain the same rights as they. His Honor’s objection is that the $3,000 offered by the city is too small, but he knew that other towns had Leen supplied with water at as low rate as that offered here. He resvlution :— sixty frost-proof hydrants, according to speci- fications to be seen at the City Clerk's on and after the 27th inst., said tenders to be i1 or before the 27th December next. The resolution was not seconded. Councillor Haszard said he knew th Recorder had been working hard in the maiter. He said he would be pleased if the Company called for tenders themselves. would call for tenders anl select the best and cheapest. tiou time but died out afterwards. He thought there was no intention to build the waterworks. c them it would be better for the citizens, as the rates would be much lower. The ob- jection to the city’s constructing the works was that they did not have the money, but zens could do so, the whole city could not. The amount savel in water rates could be funded ani expented for drainage, which could be built as required. If the Council are sincere a resolution should be moved After some further discussion, and the opinion being expressed that the matter had better stand over for consideration un- til another meeting, the Council adjourned. ~—_—~ A Boarl of Health intet%ing was held im- ups Tiately oterranly aml dae isting of ivarneient Poud was Awoussed bY com ‘ dubid length: MINGER. = + ease tained that there was no foundation what- | fact that the old tank building at Spring | Councillor McRae asked what action the | Councillor A.
