The CI1An:i>, iu I'Ommentin. upon this rep>rfc, said that the lighting of the public haips on moin- light nights would be resumed. Tenders for gas coal had been sent, but as the matter was still un. decided he ccjuidered it bpet not to mo.ition prices which were considerably under what th,y were last \*ar; anithe committee hesitated to accept any H nder until the most vigorous tests and inquiries lad been male, Tho t tle gas works wefC procetOinz as rapidly as co"ld be ex pected.

I am very sorry to hear the work is being pushed foiward so rapidly; it may possibly not be done so well on that account. he CSAIEMAS ex\,I"iU6d that the contractors were, bv the contract, to finish the work on the 2nd July, but hid made an application (which it was thought desirable to grant), that the work should not be completed until the 2nd August. Mr. WATKISS: What is the reason for reo suming the lighting of public lamps at the full moon? The CHAIRJIAN The pubiio complain that it is often as daik at the time of the full moon as at other times; and it is considorell dv.igerous not only to travelleis but also to property.
