That amount was considered too much by the council and ways and means of getting the same results for less money were considered.

He agreed however. with Councillor Laporte that the rate~ payers were entitled to the information no matter how much it cost to give it to The Mayor pointed out that the Library Board had requested a separate entrance into the library for the childâ€" ren. . The Board had discussed the quesâ€" tion of lighting and floor covering. All these questions will be discussed by the council at a future meeting. Want More Street Lights A resident of Balsam street, south, wrote to the council asking that more street lights be placed in that section of the town. Councillors decided that the problem of street lights was a big one and that also was left over for anâ€" other meeting.

Main things to ‘be considered were the teating accommoâ€" dations for the council chamber and the cells for the jail, It was decided to take up the matter of cells with the Police Committee at a mseting of that body today. The architect and Chief of Police will sit in at the meeting. The motion pointed out that alâ€" though Southern Ontario had been alâ€" lated several sittings of the appointed Royal Commission on Transport, Norâ€" thern and Northwestern Ontario ‘had not had one. It Asked that a sitting be held in Northern Ontario. A copy of the motion will be forwarded to Mitchell F. Hepburn, Prime Minister. â€" â€"Mayor Bartleman added his little criâ€" ticism of the government‘s policy alâ€" though it was, not relevant to what Mr. Leonard was saying. â€" It was very unâ€" satisfactory, he said, the governments policy of granting licenses only for the period of a year. A â€"motion that was approved by the municipal bodies of Kapuskasing, Cochâ€" rane, Haileybury, Kirkland Lake and New Liskeard was forwarded to the Timmins council. The clerk was orderâ€" ed ‘to prepare a similar motion to be passed at the next meeting. (CGontinued from Page One) The Board granted only a certain number of litenses to Timmins annuâ€" ally, said Mr. Leonard. In order to cope with the opening of new hotels it did not renew the licenses of all of the hotels.. As it was now with new hotels opening all the time a proâ€" prieter was afraid to make additions and improvements to his building for fear that he might be one of the ones who next year would not have his license renewed. Cosuncillors ‘Wren and Laporte each said that he was in favour of a move to influence the government rot to inâ€" crease the number of beer licenses in Timmins. The matter will ‘be discussed this afternoon at a meeting of the police ccmmittee.

Durkin, who wantâ€" ed the town‘s coâ€"operation in establishâ€" ing a small dog hospital brought up the topic of the dog pound and the collecâ€" tion of dog taxes. It was decided to discuss the matter at a private meeting. "This dog business is important," said the mayor. Someone asked who cclleted the dog tax and the reply was that ~the police were supposed to do it. Said Councillor Cousins, Chairman of the Police Department: ‘"‘The police can‘t collect the pollâ€" tax, business tax and dog tax too. You are sure pilling it on the police force. You soon will have the police collecting all taxes." Councillor Cousins objected to â€" this lcading everything on the police. He should not take it so seriously, said the mayor.

Aczsording to Mrs. Towtriwski, she and ~Mrs. Raire and Mrs. Nick Romanchuk ‘had hbeen "pretty ‘blue‘"‘ when in ‘the house alore with the victim, and witâ€" ness tolg Crown counsel they were ~crying because they saw a person dying. W.lliam Remanchuk, nephew of the accused, and scn of Mrs. Nick Romanâ€" chuk, told of going to the Raine house when his curiosity had been excited by ‘ the sight of his mother crying when he. wer.t home after school, he subsequently going out in search of a doctof, whom he and his mother brought to the house, cnly to find Dr. Shipley already had reached the place. Meartime,. Stadnyk and Raine had pushed accused out of the house, the firstâ€"named and Romanchuk later in the evening was arrested at his own home by Deputy Chief Pineâ€" gar, of the Teck police force. The offiâ€" cer told the zourt of having been sumâ€" moned to the Raine house and of noticing there that the floor of the kitchen had been washed, while the body of Mrs. Romanchuk lay on a bed in ansther room. Romanchuk had made no reply to him when arrested on a charge of wife murder, the deputy chief said, and was then under the influence ¢f liquor, he testified. Witâ€" nesses attendinzg the party all were hazy regarding the time, and Raine, who said he wert out for a doctor afâ€" ter the trouble and who declared the wcoman had been removed from the kiichen when he returned, swore he did nct know where he had stayed at that time or how long he was away. The Alleged attack took place in the kitchen of the Raine home and afterâ€" wards Mrs. Towtriwski and Mrs. Raine carried the injured â€" woman into a front room, laying her on bed there, according to the firstâ€"named witness. Mrs. Towtriwski told the court she ran into her own roomâ€"she was a roomer at the Raine houseâ€"during the disâ€" pute between husband and wife. This witness said the victim was still alive when carried into the bedroom, as she asked for a drink of water, and Mrs. Nick Romanchuk, sisterâ€"inâ€"law ‘of acâ€" cused, who said she had gone to Raine‘s place after the trouble, found Mrs Romanchuk still alive, as "she was yelling and asking for water." They gave her water, witness said. Trouble arose, it was sworn, when Mrs. Romanchuk asked her husband to g»o home, and accused, according to Raine and others, refused, saying ht would go "after a while." His wife then struck accused on the head with a beer bottle, Raine, Mrs. Towtriwski, Raine and Stadnyk all â€"swearing to this. Romanthuk, it was agreed, with his nose bleeding, knocked his wife down, and when the two men tried to fere, said, according to Raine, "Well, I‘m the boss of my wife." He had kicked his wife witnesses said, Raine describâ€" ing it as "beating her with the feet," and Stadnyk declaring the kicks were "mostly in the chest, I guess." Rain:s: several times told the crown counsel he was "pretty drunk" that day. The Crown‘s case in the Romanchuk murder trial had been completed when cour} rose for lunch yesterday at Kirkland Lake, nine witnesses having testified. None of them was cross examined at length by C. W. Bell, K.C., defence counsel, and the eight who testified during the morningâ€"Dr. M. A. Shipley had given medical evidence the previous dayâ€"ocâ€" cupied less than two hours and a quarâ€" ter in presenting their stories as the Crown pieced together its case against the former Cobalt pool room proprietor who later went to Rouyn and Kirkland Lake after quitting business in the silver town scme years ago. + Witnesses examined included other members of the party at the Raine home, Mr. and Mrs. Raine, Steve Stadâ€" nyk and Mrs. Nellie Towtriwskl, and it was generally agreed that there had been considerable drinking of beer and whiskey by the various members of the company, including both accused and his late wife, some of it having been done at Romanchuk‘s place before the party adjourned to.the Raine house on Taylor avenue. Witnesses also agreed that, prior to the tragedy there had been singing and dancing to the music of a gramcophone, and Raine, who said "everybody was happy and singing," declared Mr. and Mrs. Romanchuk had been dan: ternoon. once each, the breast bone had been broken in two places, the chest crushed, the internal organs injured and there were bruises on head, neck, face and body.
