A querterly meeting ees held in Wednnniny morning
ix,t, present—Mr. Al, 'crown James Milleslge (Deputy
Player), Messrs. Alderman 1.11,C. Ay ling. and Hord;
Councillors Mesh Talhot. bundle, Vincent, and WeWords
with Mr. F. C. Steggall, Town Clerk.
The first lousiness was to pa., accounts ; but as this
required 13, the bills could only he examined

ACCIDENT FROW TOE TRAIIWAY.
Mr. Alderman flowtnii mentioned the case of a poor
man, whose boat was iinsved alongside the Quay, and •
piece of timber WilA knocked off the tramway by passing
trucks, and damaged the poor man's boat, which had to
be repaired at an expense of a pound or two.
The SURVEYOR Wan railed in. and mike,' whose fault was
the canoe of the accident ' He did not know, and the
Harbour-maxter Twin-' 'era for xahl the wood belonged to
the Corporation. The men were at work cutting Piles,
and this WWI a Piece that had been cut off, and it was
placed on the Quay near the Cti:toni 'loose, while the
men were at work : thcv odd not remove before it was
' knocked off. In answer to Mr. Howard, he said the team-
way people were .upposed to clear the tramway before the
trucks Caine along.
Mr. Alderman flow can thought that, if the Surveyor represented the cane to3lr. Reynolds, the Company woukl
pay the money.
Thus the matter wan left.
PILE PIER L IDYL
The Harbour.manter reporter that the lamps OD tie I'll' pier 'ere freinently went out after midnight
The TOWN xahl this we, a very xerious matter the Corporation would be liable If accident+ occurred. Ile
also referred to the bill for some of the lights to that
Harbour, concerning which there wax a report that they
had been charged for twire, once among the town general
lights, and once ataong the 'Labour light..
inin enquiry of Mr. Vickery it was found, however, that
they wen) not included in the town lamps.
Thio net the false report at rest

THE NARKET 1110ESF-
On the bill• on this fowl being examined. the Market
House fond appear to be is• rather more satisfactory state than before. and
Mr. Ablerinau TATE said the alterations is the Market Mouse were very satisfactory to him.

LAMP% NOT titinom.
There was an emsuiry as to whether the Gas Company's
manager Wan duly informed .4 the lamps that did not
born. Mr. Stone was sent foe and stated that lie received
reports; from the police an to the lamps that were not
lighted. and a man wan speeially appointed to attend to
the matter. Hat on particular nem...ions referred to by
Mr. Talbot, Mr. Stone said he did not have the lanais
relY'r.L4- -

bung aaked whether the company made proper
;alb:ovum.° to the Pomo' for the Jamiei that do notlll, Mr. Stone said their going out th•l not arise from any
want of supply. but fnusi the lamp, being blown out.
Being at& d whether the Gas ~,, twiny attend to the
Intuit report., Mr. Supt. Vickery I.fili.l two or three of the
lamps had been reported twice over; but at a general rule
they were attended to.
Mr. iiroxii said the same lamps teight get out of repair,
and go out, two or three nighta following, frotn the same
cause. The keeping alight warn a far more delicate matter
with thew regulator. than Wore: a small drop of water
from condensation, to- holm rain, would cause the lamp to
Snout.
The Pier lanai. going out was nientinnel to Mr. Stone,
and he aikal that he had given the Harbour master warn-
ing 'vont time to time that if he would have the meter toeneetod with the Pier humps, they would now and them
go out. Unloo they had a larger pipe the whole length of
the pier and a larger meter, they could not keep these.
lamps in proper trim. There was along line of idoefl Pine,
and when there we, no much friction for a long distance
the . e gas would almoat cease to now. If the Board woubl
di.connect the iouter, it would be even better than with
selarger pipe and meter, and lie could noe'renceive what the
Board insisted on having a motor for, for the meter res•
trations were kept, and those for the corresponang
periods were found to be alike in the suceessive years.
Mr. LUNDIR said this matter had been before the
Council for three or four year., and it was a disgrace that
It had not been attoteled to before. Ire thought the flitter
should be disconetted, and the gas supplied without, as
the quantity communed was known.
Mr. I%OWARI) mentioning the possibility of a violent
he, Ur. Stone amid if there were such II F.alc, he tlid not
think they could prevent the lamps being blown out.
Being aaked how this c•iuld be avoided, he said there were
properly con.tructed lantern.
Mr. listwaun thought they ought to have properte con-
structed lantern., and as he did not think the pent
supply would b • autticient for such lanterns,, he was in. favour of increaaing the vrousuniption, so as to give a
thoroughly good light during the winter storm& He,

Mr. LUIIIPE seconded tiv_ Proitteition, but the atoned'
being now resolved into Local lloard, and this matter
belonging to tlie t'ouncil, it could not be passed.
It we.,, however, understood that the teeter should be
thutoved from the Pilo pier, in girder that the lames be
kept alight.
