colonel Stover remarked that while
Mr.. Haney was very convincing in his
arguments, yet the resolution under dis.
oussion had been carefully thought over
and was the outcome of the meeting the
night before, when City Solicitor Hast
ings had expressed his opinion that the
best thing TO do would be to first de-
termine whether the railway company
has the legal right to charge cent
fare. He mentioned that in the resolu-
tion Council is pledged to conduct an
investigation should it be ascertaned
that the company has not the right to
charge a 9 cent fare.
