is to be installed. Mr.. Cook still elaine,
that the committee had prior right L
meter anything from stoneshed to

ed last year. Mr.. Rossi chung to hi,
original viewpoint and Mr.. Glysson wal
still contending that metering is an ex
penslve experiment when the mayor pun
the question.

son, Shurtlef and Bruce voted in the
affirmative and the deadlock was broken
by the mayor, who also voted yes. The
motion as amended was also carried.
Mr. Glysson reported that fremont
street petitioners who asked for a hy-
drant to be installed in front of j. III.
Jones house would be satisfied if the
connection were made, instead in front
OF j. L. Wallace's house, where four
inch main may be joined to the hydrant.
1t was decided not to take any action
until after the hearing with the manu-
bate on meter matters, the aldermen
seemed heartily sick of anything that
sounded like water and adopted the sug-
gestion of postponement without pro-
test.
A hearing of the request of c. W.
Averill & Co. for the right to install
gasoline tank and pump at their place
OF business on North Main street was
set for May IS. A petition from Alb
bott avenue people for the extension of
the sewer main to the residence of G. A.
Clark was referred to the street COM
mittee. The Barre Drug Co.'S. request
for permission to spread an awning in
front of its store was referred to the
street committee with power to act and
to report.
The mayor brought up the question of
distributing fees to the police officers
under new statute enacted in the last
legislature and the police committee was
instructed to confer with the local Off.
GERS. In years past the city has had
an agreement with the policemen where
by all court fees are to be returned to
the treasurer. If the provisions of the
new statute are to obtain, il is feared
that some of the pernicious features of
the old fee system may crop out once
more.
