The sentiment of the council was almost unanimous lu favoi ol the low bid when the mutter was oilginully intiodueed.

The lecent election did not telleve the' situation and vv lieu tlie council met fin oiganUatlon soon aftei winds, It was dlscoveied that .Mr. Patten and Thomas F.

Major Halley told tlie committee that ho would nddiess a communica tion to councils on the matter next Tbuisday night. These fuels weie bi telly lepoited by Mr. Flunagan last night and he explained that in view of the inn id's pioposed letter the committee deemed it unnecessary to ie:oit finally.
