heard about it, I went to the Policemaster
and got his permission to speak to the
PoYters, whom I told that tie matter mad

me but by Government and | promised
them to lay the matter before the Council
in it's first meeting.
3rd Grown Member (Pyeho). l can fully
agree with the last speaker, especially for
Christiansted, where we have one vessel a
year.
His Excellency the Governor (HeLceg~

agreement with the Council on this ques-
ton; whether l Franc Will be right, | am
not sure Of, but I will listen, if the Council
will appoint a Committee.
[ think those who have taken out a
license are bound to do the work for the
price fixed in this Ordinance, while they
are kept free from competition.
End Member for Frederiksted Town
(Heruia). The majority of the porters is
for keeping the Law.

Committee. 1t would be much better to
abolish the Law and let them pay a fee

Bird Crown Member (Preto) The matter
is so simple, that it can be settled III tins

Item IA.
Introduction of and 1st Discussion on
Amendments to Ordinance of IS May
1875 concerning Porters and Cartmen
in the Towns Of ST. Croix introduced
by 1st Member for Frederiksted Town,
+. C|oulterl.
The amendments read:
AMENDHEN1
to Ordinance Of 18th May 1875 con-
eernlng Porters and Cortnaen IN the
Toms Of St, Crojr.
/. After the words 'there shall be paid
a fee Of to be inserted Gone Franc"
instead Of 50 cents.
50. After the words "The P~olicemaster
shall" to be struck out, up to the 4th
line after the word also.
f. COULTER.
1st HEM for Freder1GSted Io'oe.
1st Member for Frederiksted Town
(Couter). For the benefit of the Council
It is best to elucidate the object of the
amendments
S / of the Law reads:
"Any person wishing to earn his subsis-
tence in either of the towns by working as
Porter or Cartman shall thereto obtain the
permission of the Policemaster concerned
Such perm ssion, which shall be indicated
bv a Sign or Pass, is to be given for a term
OF 8 months at a time, and for each time it
is given, there shall be paid a fee Of SO
cents. which shall accrue to the Police
fund"
The proposal is now to reduce the SO
cents to 20 cents or one Franc.
s 2 reads:
"The P~olicemaster shall, however, be
emp wered to permit a porter OF a cartman
to allow another porter or cartman to use
his pass temporarily, and i'll the same man,
neT the Policemaster shall also be empow-
cred to give, free of charge, permission to
females to assist, for a short time, with
porter work on the wharf, or in lumber
wards, for instance in carrying lumber,
slaves etc
Here the proposal is to strike out the
first part of the paragraph, so that the
license cannot be transferred.
The reason for introducing these amend
ments goes back to 3 years ago, when the
Porters approached me on the subject.
When the Law was issued in 1875 a sailing
vessel came in. and it took the porters a
long time to unload and reload it; they got
so cents a day, and it was not difficult for
them to pay the fee Of SO cents every third
month.
But now a steamer comes in and remains
some hours. About a year ago l approach
ed His Excellency on the subject, and he
Ill H. =
master. His Excellency went to Denmark
and the matter rested until the labour
events some month ago.
A steamer came in and the Porters re-
fused to work, if the fee was not reduced.
The agent for the steam company declared
that he would order the steamer to leave,
If the porters did not take up the work
within a certain time. A merchant from
the Town went to the Policemaster and

Members will remember this Draft was laid
before the Council in it's last meeting and q
Committee was appointed. The time left
of the elective year was too short and as
we now have entered in a new elective year
the matter must be laid again before the
Council. If no one objects, [ will consider
it tacitly adopted that the same Committee
is reelected.
No one objected.
His Excellency the Governor (HeI1req-
LARSEN. I have referred the matter to
Home Government but have as yet not
received any reply.
The Chairman %(StalCmdnn) closed 1st
Discussion and gave a recess.
After the recess the Chairman (Siate-
mann) announced, that he had received the
following amendment to the proposal for
amendments to Ordinance of 18th May
1875 about Porters:

Manager Griffith Will Keep Pitching Choice Secret Till Very

Mcbride being the perpetrators thereof.
Mcbride booted Agnew's bounder to
start the inning, and after striking out
Foster, who was batting for Shore. the
southpaw threw wide to second TO force
out the catcher, and both men were
safe. Scott flied out to Milan and jan
vrin. came through with his second
single of the day. II was followed by

new and Hooper to the desired destina-
tion. IL was at this juncture that Har-
per pulled himself together and disposed

ing the nucleus Of their victory In the
opening chapter. Moeller connected
with the first ball pitched by Shore and
was safe. He took second on a wild
pitch and when Agnew dropped Fosters
third strike he tried In vain to head of
Moeller at third. The play failed, but
Gardner relayed the ball to first In time
TO get Eddie. Milan died when Shore
threw him out at first instead of throw
Ing to the plate. where he had a good
chance to get the scoring Moeller.
Another run presented itself in the
second, when Mcbride drove Rondeau
over with a burning single after the
latter had hit and advanced on two
outs. The third tally OF the game ar
rived In the eighth. Moller again being
the scorer. He had fooled Shore into
giving him four wide ones, after which
he stole second. and went to home on
the throw-in OF Fosters single. Nc
Bride drove another run across In the
final stanZa. Rondeau got n base when
Janvrin dropped throw and was
sacrificed by Morgan. He went to
third on the throw-ln of Williams ny

Washington's to defeat of the Red
Sox. Those two young men contributed
three Of the seven hits amassed by the
invaders and together they scored all
OF the runs. They will remain In the
line-up as long as they can display this
kind OF form. II Is needless to say. and
they have already done much to make
their positions secure. So much for the
offensive work which actually won the
game.
As for smiling AIRY 'Arper It suffices
TO say that he proved meritorious OF the
confidence which Griff placed in him
duties, and the six hits and four strike
outs which resulted from his offerings

calibcr.
