The meeting of council last night was
characterized by brevity as much as by
business. Little was done outside the
usual routine. Parties desiring to es-

promptly turned down. The matter of

Mrs Lille was former school

dealer on a small scale. The murder
for which she was sentenced was
committed in October, 1902; but the
case was so stubbornly fought in the
courts that she was not brought to
the penitentiary until few months
ago.
There she was visited by former
