Mr.. L. a. Catlin. in discussing the con-
dition of tho Gas-Works yesterday. said
that in his opinion. the day was not far
distant when the city would have 10 ex-
pend a large sum for the improvement Of
the works.
Mr. Branch r. Allen, a member OF the
Light Committee. said that the works
have recently been put in very thorough
repair. and they are now giving general
satisfaction. II is estimated that there
will be a saving this year In the expenses
of some $1,000 or $4,000.
Mr.. Allen was asked If he apprehended
that there would be any necessity for the
outlay Of any large sum on these works
In the near future.
lie said that nothing OF the sort was ex-
pected so far as he was advised. -
