Water-scorks Troubles II Rosc Over
Kramer,


In the second edition OF last Satur-
days STAR we mentioned the fact that
Nose Kramer had made up his mind to
resign his position in the Water-works
Office, and that he would tender his
resignation to the Board in the after
noon.
These facts were substantially true as
developed at the Board meeting in the
afternoon. Mr.. Hilb, however, anticl-
pated Kramer's action by Offering res
0lution that he and Engineer BOeokh,
Geo. Campbell and Peter Schwab be dis
charged. The resolution had the effect
Of making Kramer very indignant.
At the call OF Mr. Bowman he came
into the Trustees room, and stated that
he had understood late in the forenoon
against him Of having collected money
twice from Henry Pearce and Phillips &
Jordan. After he heard that charge he
had determined not to resign, but to re-
main in the Board and vindicate himself
upless one of the other members of the
Board should demand his resignation.
Mr.. Bowman whispered to him that he
had better resign, whereupon Moses
signitied his willingness to quit, and
the Board accepted the situation. When
the resolution came up for action on the
other names, mr.. Bowman saiQ ne want
ed to see all of these mon have chance;
he wanted to see them all come before
the Board and be given an opportunity
to prove that they had not failed in the
performance of their duty. He even did
not want to see Kramer deposed without
some showing, and moved thaJ he be re.
instated.
Himself and Mr.. Dannenhold voted for
the resolution and it was carried. Mr..
Hilb stated that Mr.. Pearce ana Messrs.
Phillips and Jordan were willing to
come before the Board and testify that
Kramer had collected money of them
twice, and when asked about 1t had Of
tered to refund IL II it was kept still.
Quite Q scefle. occurred at THIS Juno
tufe. Kramer accused Hilb of Offering
to pay to the Trustees ten per cent On
all old iron bought OF the Water-works.

About the 18th of last October,

About the 18th of last October,
nearly one year ago. there was q lot
of small shad put into the Tangipa-
hOs river, at Annie City, for the
purpose of stocking the river with
this valuable fish. Fishermen are
now catching new species of Ash
which is altogether unknown to
them, and the probability is that
this new fish is the shad. They are
six or eight inches in length, and
are said to be very 6ne. This is an
encouraging experiment, and will
probably result in stocking all our
rivers with valuable kinds of fish,
