Roberts, chairman of the Finance Committee, report- ed that the expenditure during the past month amounted to L555 14s 5d, and that th« amount collected was L539 4s 2d, which included the payment of a rate bythe Lon- don and North Western Railway Company. The unpaid rates amounted to £ 300.—Mr W. D. Jones, on behalf of the Road and Lighting Committee, reported that the com- mittee had met and decided to have the watering cart repaired at an outlay of be- tween -23 and 24. This received the ap- proval of the Council. They also recom- mended the buying of a new water cart. This matter was deferred. The town lamps were reported to be in a most unsatisfactory con- dition, over one half of them requiring to be repaired. The buying of a street sweeper was deferred, as the cost seemed large, and doubt was entertained as to whether it would answer in a town like Holyhead. A lamp has been fixed on the Marine square, and the Chairman thought it would answer very well. —The Building Committee reported that a new drain should be made in Thomas street at a cost of about £ 40.—Mr David Williams reported that the committee visited the pre- mises of Mr Ferrand and found that they were in a very bad conditioni on account of other drains being connected with his.—Mr Ferrand appeared before the Council and cl.aim:ed ,£5 for damages sustained.

D. Jones, and it was arranged1 that the committee who had this question on hand should meet at once to complete their work.
