Oxy-Hydrogen Reaolutlons.

The reason why Council took recess
OF ten minutes at the instance of Mr.
Magee last evening, was because he had
been handed resolutions to be offered to
Council, relating to the Oxy Hydrogen
Company, and expressing the opinion
that the city would be benefited
by competition Mr.. Magee arrived
while Council was in session, and, as he
had no feeling on the question himself,
and did not know the opinion of his
fellow councilmen, he moved that
Council take a recess to consider the
resolutions The result was that the
members thought it a question for the
street and Sewer Directors, and the
resolutions were not presented
