At the council meeting last night
but four members were present aside
from the mayor, and as a result the
newly-drawn weed ordinance and the
concrete sidewalk ordinances were
forced to go over until next meeting.
Those present were Councilmen
Rem, Mccormack, Mumm and
Thompson.
But while little business was trans
acted much discussion was INDUCED
in. The proposition of having the
streets sprinkled an extra time in
the afternoon was broached by
Councilman Thompson and met with
favor, though no action was taken.
Also the idea of having all the
streets sprinkled by means of two ex-
ira wagone on the night of July 3
was brought up.
The city marshal was instructed to
require traction engines to forego the
pleasure of running on the paved
streets whenever such can be avoid
ed.
About the ". & C. X.
During the discussion last evening
City Attorney McCourt said that at
the instance of certain parties he had
looked up the question of the city
ordering the removal of the w. G. C.
r tracks from Webb street. He de-
clared the subject was a mooted one,
as the court decisions upon the SUBJ
ject were not uniform. However, he
said that the franchise was granted
the railroad company by the city
council when that body had not au-
thority to do so under the charter
then in force Unless a state statute
authorizing such action then existed
he declared the company had no val
i'd franchise.
What to do with the w G. C.. r.
track provided it could be forced off
Webb street was then discussed. and
the only solution offered was one by
Mccormack. who pro-
posed that it be run down the levee.
Last evening the monthly report
of the citv treasurer was read at the
council meeting, and 1t showed the
condition of the city's finances at the
first Of the month to be as follows:
General fund. s23.435.S5; levee sink
ing fund, s1Is22s5; general sinking
fund, $1s0s,S1; contingent fund,
$4,000: Main street fund. s305s.73;

Yesterdays Church Services.
Visited Soldier Boys.
Notes.

The Apponaug baseball team OF the
Warwick Amateur league met the Lake
wood team OF the same league Saturday
afternoon at Apponaug and Lakewood
won by the score OF IA TO 5. The game
was very interesting until the sixth in
ming. when Card. Apponaugs star pitch
er. was found for eight hits and as many
runs. This. together with some ragged
fielding. was the cause OF the game be-
ing lost. Mclaughlin was put in the
box. although the game was lost He
did very good indeed and in three in
nings struck out five men. Shepard at
left showed a bad streak OF the baby on
account OF his refusal to field the ball
when. by mistake OF Hannafin. II rolled
be him.
The largest crowd of the season was
present and were sorely disappointed at
the showing their team made The
management has decided to make several
changes In the makeup Of the team and
the followers OF the team can rest as
sured that they will not again be treated
to such an article Of ball as that OF Sat-
urday. Although defeated Saturday. APP
pcnaug has an even chance to tie for
the pennant. The next game will be at
Norwood on Saturday and the following
Saturday. Aug 10. the event OF the sea-
son will take place with the Roger Will
liams team.
The traffic on the cars yesterday was
very heavy. The people in Apponaug
suffer by this. most especially on the
East Greenwich line. In going from Ap-
ponaug to East Greenwich or in that
direction Apponaug people are sometimes
obliged 10 wait for hours on account OF
the cars being crowded coming from
Providence. Many are the complaints
heard about this Inconvenience. This
waiting at Apponaug could be remedied
by adding more cars on each trip or hav-
ing the cars run more often.
