They Were Before the Fire and Light Committee Yesterday -- Chairman Bell Threatens the Reporters With Exclusion, A meeting of the fire and hight com mittee was held in the city engineer's office at 4 pm. yestenday. There were present : Charman Bell, Alds. Mct ammon, King, Craig and Farrell. The minutes of the last meeting was read, but not accepted until amended. fhe names of ihe unsuccessful tender- ars for foeman's uniforms, not known to the commities when the contract was award «d, were mentioned in the mingles, Ln wotion of Ald. MeUam- mon the names were struck out, the committee - not - being supposed to know them. Woen this bad been done chairman Bell took. occasion to give some fatherly advice. He referred to the Whig Baving published the names of the unsuccessful tenderers, which act- ion he thought was altogether wrong. . Craig--The tailors would not have hod the news made public if they had understood the circumsten ces. To this the Whig can say: 'They did understand the matter amd were willing--some of them ecager--to give their names. 'Many of them did not believe in Ald. Bell's plan to keep the names quiet, They gave their names with a full knowledge of the commit: tee's action and with the understand: ing that such names would be pub- lishiect. i Here chairman Bell held out a threat that he would probably sexclude the press if such things were made public against the wish of the committee. Messrs, Williamson and McCartney appearsd before the committee to ad- dress the aldermen re their disputed claims for work during the late arbi: tration, The former said that he thought the committee did not under: stand their position. He bad agreed to provide an itemized account of the carpentry work, for which be was to receive 850. A more itemized report was required, and Mr. Williamson did the work over again, and also made estimfites ax to painting, glazing and papering, which was extra work. He rendered a bill of $115, and the city offered him $65 in settlement. This was refused. The city solicitor explained the city's side of the disputed account, as he had done to last year's committee, The detailed estimate of the deprecia. tion had been of very great value to the city, because the company's ex perta did not have such 4 report, and the ping were knocked out from under them. Ald. Craig thought the gentleman's first report was valueless. The ques tion was : Did they fulfil the terms of their contract 7 Chairman Boll did not think it was tight to eut down such a small ac count for such an excellent report. Ald. King considered that Mr. Wil lamson must have had the details before he could [form 5 lump esti mate; he might have checked over rome of the details. The committee must be just before it is generous, he- cause other contractors, who were out down, would probably then give tron ble. Ald. Farrell's opinion was that no man had a right to go into the wit- ness box and say the depreciation was a certain per vent. unless he could wove it in detail. Mr, McCartney i been able to do this in one case r. Farrell would be willing to ke uided by the solicitor. Ald. McCammon said the accounts looked as if Messrs. McCartney and Williamson had prepared them to- gether. Ex-alderman McCartney then ad dressed the committee, going careful ly over the matter, which has pre- viously been explained in the press. © was sure that he bad saved the city $700 or 8800 on the chimmey alone, because of the excellence of his report. The work he had done was worth $ti5, The Chairman did not think it just to cut them down one cent, while out side contractors had heen paid in full. Ald. King stated that the mon sd- mitted that the extra work they did was an extension of the information. Alds. McCammon, King and Farrell did not agree with the chairman. In reply to Ald: Craig the solicitor said the meaning of the contract might be interpreted in different ways. In his opinjon the men did not exceed their first contract. McCartney's account was for "My time "is scarce," he said, & I'll make 5 suggestion: 1 will close for 8100." Ald. Farrell suggested that the sum ou $90 be afisend La gentlemen in 1g ing and carried, ] cloth Mr. Williamson sul Mr. Me artney signified their willingness to aceept this offer. The committee then CLAINS SETTLED FOR $90! THE DAILY WHIG, SATURDAY, MAY 10. SUNDAY SERVICES. The Places Where Good Disco Will be ard.

A Prepared Food Helps to Solve The Problem of Good Living-- Prices of Meat Go Up. "While the average housekeeper may be ignorant as to whether a beef trust has been formed or whether the increase in the price of meat is due to other causes, if she is a woman of moderate means, she has become con- vinced that she must turn to some- thing exeept animal food for the main fare of her family," says the Buffalo Express. "It is not an entirely new thing, this advance in the price of meats, and it is even rumored that prices have not yet reached their limit, but certain it is that the cost of living for the average family has increaed rapidly of late until meat has become an article of diet that nmst necessari- ly be eliminated from the daily fare of the very poor and has become al- most a luxury even to those who have a moderate and usually adequate am- ount to spend upon the family food. "Today domestic science and pub- lie: opinion have joined in teaching an important lesson to rich amd poor alike, the necessity of consuming body building food, supplying material that will keep nerves, muscles, bones, flesh and brain in the proper condi- tion, feeding into the human engine the fuel npeded to make good the con- stant waste." A food expert at Battle Creek, Mi: chigan., has produced a food especial: ly intended to supply more nutri- ment than meal, fish or fowl, and that costs the comspmer about one cent a meal. It is called, "Grape Nuts," and has more nourishment for the body and greater strength and vitality for the brhin and nervous system, and is an economy that reduc- ws the cost of housekeeping to the minimum and at the same time pleas Love !

Mr. Marter has challeng- ed the opposition to a dis- cussion of the pulpwood agreements, He says if Mr. Whitney will honor him by meeting him in a public discussion, he is of the op- inion that the conservative party will decide that itis "time for a change' of leadership of their party. In a word, he will show up Mr. Whitney in such a light that his usefulness as a leader will be gone.

How will Ontario profit by a Whit- ney victory ! Gootl government is a thing Ontario : cannot have too long. You can hardly realize that. in three weeks will be election day. Keep a moving, What does the Whitney campaign consist of ? A campaign of slanders, petty and great. The opposition policy,is merely a ser- ies of pitch-holes in the road to pros: perity, along which the province is travelling. Ontario is at once the wealthiest, happiest and most prosperous pro- vince in Canada. Yet Mr. whitney wants a change. We have the substance, namely Ii beral government--Who wants to risk it for the shadow offered by Mr. Whitney and his friends. Moy 29th will see the weather calm and restful for the liberal party.

His en ergy, ability and masterly progressive policy has dumbfounded his opponents and delighted his friends. Ontario needs more of Ross. * Mr. Pence has always supportea lib eral candidates, and glad he -is to say that for the past ten years Kingston has done the same, sending good and true representatives to both federal and provincial parijaments. The News asks dilly questions as to the dominion byeelection, but the Whig is not aware of all the gossip it has knowledge of. Mr. Harty is well aware of the support given him liv the Whig, and Mr. Pense and his satisfaction was publicly expressed. Since the two or three years since the Ross government eame into pow er, a great deal has been done to give an impetus to the development of On tario; and most of the good work was opposed by Mr, Whitney, Do the jvo- ple want the poliey of progress se versed ?

This was when Sir John Macdonald said he would show "that little tyrant, Sir Oliver Mowat," that he would punish this proviasce for remaining liberal, A laboring man said to-day that he would give his first grit. vote for Pense on the 29th. The reason he gave was that cader tory rule his wages averaged from seventy-five cents | to $1 per day, when he could get work, which was irregular. Now he got $1.- 25 to $175 per day and had all the work he could do. He argued that it coyld not-be a bad government un der which such a change was brought about.
