certain expenditures. lhcN were
not certain how much was due to
him, but he thought $4,000 was not
too much ii quh-claim was signed
for it..
Noble Walker was not aware that
any claim had ever been made on
the Government, although he be-
licvcd there had been to His Ma
jesty. IL was certain that he had
advertised Ills claim widely in
foreign papers. The speaker would
be glad In see the matter settled for
$500.
Noble Widcmann would not nc
knowledge claim made only in the
newspapers.

mittee to increase to S4l, 100, for
the purposes stated by them. Re
port adopted. A motion TO insert
the items was made.
Noble Widemann did not believe
that $4,000 would put n decent
fence around the Palace yard. II
they were to appropriate an item
for that purpose, it should be
enough to ensure fence that would
be credit to the palace.
| Rep. Nawahi said the committee
had estimates from $4,000 upward,
and were assured that the best
could be had for $4,000. That
was given them by the Superinten-
dent of Public Works, bat if he was
the kind of man described by the
finance committee, perhaps they
were only left CROPPING in the dark.
The hon. Noble should move OH
amendment for what he deemed
sufficient.
| Noble j. NJ. Horner was sorry
this item was proposed this session.
There was substantial fence
around the yard now, nothing in
side was being injured. They
would be gamers by waiting, as i'm
provements were constantly being
made in fence designs.
Rep. Lucas moved to amend TIT
item to $4,000. The length o
fence was 1000 feet and the bes
fence, to be got in England, woul'
cost So foot. If it could be go
cheaper the money need not all b
spent.
Noble Baldwin did not agre
with Noble Horner as to the neces
sity or otherwise of the work. Tn
hon. Noble would not be as good {
manager Of the Palace as he is of
plantation. 1t was very desirable
that fence in keeping with the dig
nifty of the Palace should be pro
vidsd. He understood $4,000 wa
. the Minister'S estimate and, Will
willing to vote for whatever was re
CURED, he did not believe in voting
. for more.'
Noble Widemann had some fenc
ing just arrived which cost over
dollar foot. The gates alone TO
the Palace fence would cost a grea
deal. He did not believe that eve
$4,000 would be sufficient.
specific pattern would be required
to adapt the fence to the rislnI
| grade. His plan was to vote tn
amount proposed by the committe
, and let the Minister go as far as h
, could with plans, etc., and mex
session another appropriation coul
be made.
J Noble Baldwin considered tina
this item should be voted separately
as it was neither repairs nor furn
ture of Government buildings. II
moved that the item be amended t
$31, $50, and separate item c
$4,000 be inserted for the fence
