Dr. Wlckersbam, from the committee en
municipal allalts, reperted verbally that the
commltteo had i.onslileriHl various matters
relating te Iho welfare of the city. In rela
tion te tbe election or a V. 8. publle building
In this city tbey bail a conrerenco with our
ropresontatlvo lu Congress, Mr. Illestand,
aud ellered te glve him any assistance In their
rawer te aid lu the passage of the bill new
tiefere Congress for that purpose j and Mr,
Illestand had told them the bill was In a fair
way et being passed, A similar bill for a
fiublle building In Camden has parsed and
10 thinks this Is au Indication that llie Lan
caster hill will pass. If se, all right; II net,
then the beard of trade can lend htm valua
ble asslstance In pushing tbe matter through.
Dr. Wlckersbam said the commltteo had
also had under consideration tbe ordlnance
passed at last meeting et city councils pro
posing a lean of tl'-,eJ te improve the sow sew sow
erago and water supply of the city. He said
the people should have a full knowledge of
tbe plan proposed by councils, If tbey had a
plan, se tlift they could vele Intelligently for
or against the proesod lean. On bebair of
the committee he ellered tbe tollewlng reso
lution. iMiiKAsr. 01 niKtiTv num.
neselieil, That as an ordlnance has been
passed by our city councils and approved by
the mayor submitting the question of nego
tiating a new lean or one hundred and twen
ty live thousand dollars te a vote of tbe peo
ple at tbe forthcoming election In February,
and as It Is stated that tbe meney te be raised
Is wanted ler the purpose of providing a
system of sewerage ler the northern part of
the city and Improving tbe general water
supply, this beard respectfully requests the
preper authorities te lay before It and the
publle any plan they may have In contem
plation for accomplishing the work In erder
that thn vote may be cast Intelligently.
Dr. Wlckersbam also called attention te a
proposed act of tbe legislature rolatlve te
classifying the several cities of the common
wealth tinder ene general act. Itadlcal
changes are proposed In tbe city charters and
Lancaster will he deeply luterested lu tbe
matter.
msciHsiex en inr.iihsoi.niev,
Mr. Hreslus said the matter referred te the
committee was te llnd out whether tbe bill If
passed would be operative lu Lancaster. He
aiiswered that It certainly would be opera epora epera
live lu Iittucaater and all ether cities of the
third aud fourth classes. Lancaster has a
deep Interest In watching tbe progress of the
bill and in seeing that, her Interests are net
Improperly lntorfered with.
Mr. C J. hwarr favored the adoption or tbe
resolution, but thought It might be worded
mero definitely. He would substitute the
words thevlun ler "any plan."
ltebert J. Housten thought Dr. W Icker
sham's resolution relative te the proposed
lean very protmrena City councils should
certainly let tbe voters knew exactly what
tbey art) going te de with the H25.IXM before
asking them te vote for Its expenditure.
Jehn H. Haumgarduer explained that tbere
would bu published a detlultu plau et the
oiratlens proposed In a very few days. Tbe
reason the election en the proposed lean waa
fixed at se early a date was te save expeuse
te the city. Iho election olHeers who con
duct the ensuing municipal election will act
as election eltlcers ou the question of the
adoption of the propesod lean.
Dr. Wl kersham's resolution was then
passed unanimously.

Te the lleiiril 0 Trade of 1 anemter
Your commlttee en statistics begs leave te

preparations have been made for the publica

A design ler a cover ter tbe same has been
prepared and Is in tbe bands et the engraver;
and a map showing the plau et the city, the
streets laid out and projected, the location el
the principal buildings, ,1a.; also a map
showing the prosent and prospective railroad
connections aud facilities of the city.
Hlanks and Inquiries bare been sent out
In large uumber te secure the returns neces
sary te tabulate the social, commercial aud
manufacturing statistics of the city, and from
neirly two huudred comprebenslve replies
received, It Is belleved a fairly thorough and
accurate exposition et these various Interest
can be made, showing large advances en the
census returns 01 lbw.
Material has also been collected for the de
partment In which should be set forth fairly
but fully the Inducements and advantages
especially lu comparison with ether cities,
for the location here of manufacturing inter
ests, particularly se-called " light mauufac
tureV in the greatest variety.
As belere reported, the cost or such a pub
lication (provided 1U,UOO copies are printed
aud distributed) with maps and Illustrations
of prominent publle bnlldlugs ana Indus
tries win reacu aoeui m,;am. it is ueuoveu
the easiest and most practicable way te de
fray this would be by inserting about fjO
pagea of advertisements, at J.10 per page aud
distributing copies of the work free te the
advertising patrons at the rata of fir per 100
te the amount of their patronage.
Fer such subscriptions at the last meeting

It will be seen this Is something less than
