TIkPIOPONII) ORAVIItiI DOCK.

The °raving mmittee re that it was
'--1-1071C•
desirable a graving dock should be established in the
town, but they sew no other means of constructing
such a dock but by the general consolidation of the
various stocks of the borough.
Mr. Rotuma, speaking in respect to the subject,
observed a question had been raised am to whether the
Jersey and Channel Islands boats would not be with
drawn altsgretber. More than one malt the income
they now had would then go. At the present time on
the harbour there was £30.060 due for harbour bond.;
on tbe pile pier, 1:14,981 • the Mukeirltouse, £12,212:
total, £47,343. Then there was the mend debt of
the town, £lB,OOO • and the borough debt, £4,500 ;
total, 010,743. Alter this had been consolidated they
would lie called to add 00,000 more to it to constitute
a graving dock, and thus would mak* a total of
£120,000 in round numbers. This was what they
were caUed on to (we. There were various difficulties
and objections in respect to the creation of nzunicipa
mock.

Akiennan EUOT looked upon the creation o
municipal stack as • matter of very great importance
to the Wien, and upon the graving dock question as
simply one of the many impeovementa which they
might make. He failed to me that it would in any
possible way tend to dissipate or ruin the prosperity
or lotus.. prospm-te of the town by thrown* the stock*

erinted out there was no Information before the
Council as to the revenue which would be derived
from the dock. nor as to bow the workshops and staff
of trained men and other thiscrs which would be
required woes to be provided. Cousidering the various
didicultim in the way, he thought the echeme would
be a hassedous one.
Mr. Withrow) observed that although Mr.
Loved had made various oomph's in rupee' to the
dock rhyme, he had submitted no facie which would
enable thine, as business men, to arrive as • coo.
elusion as to whether a dock Gould be tarried out
