 The matter was thrown open to dis cission and Dr. Holland, W. w. Wat CTS, N. M Moody, Simon Cooper. M A. Eisele and others stated that they did not approve the announcement on the train. Some stated that at the time the inspectors were placed ch the trains, they were probably need ed but that they had served their purpose and should be taken off.
 The motion was adopted and Super intedent Throwbridge made a brief address. He stated that everyone seemed to be against the inspectors and their announcement.
