 Although the parties interested nave heen cIoseted together for over twelve hours the matters have not been ad- Susted Satisfactorily to all concerned. and as yet no signatures have been at tached to the document. As soon as inc city and contractor come to an agreement regarding some or lns clauses 1t is probable that special meetIns of the City Council will be held in order that the contract be ap- proved.
 The sewerage system is to cost the city over $300,000 and the Bond ,Trus- tees are proceeding carefully as to the terms of the contract. Under the agreement already entered into work is to be completed within four hundred days of the signing of the contract.
