After considerable debate, Mr.. Hills amend.
ments were adopted, also amendments embracing
In the resolution the report Of the late examining
committee, and the first three pages of the report
Of the Clerk Of the Commissioners Of the Sinking
Fund, and the resolution as thus amended, was
passed.
The resolution which abolishes the office of
Market Master, and provides for the perfof nance
OF the duties by members Of the police force, to
act three successive days when detailed for that
duty, was advocated by Mr.. williams and op-
posed by Mr. Tenney, principally on the ground
that would be a violation Of contract to remove

was subsequently passed, reported in our letter
OF Saturday, after which the Board adjourned To
