At the meeting of the Board of Works this afternoon the board will have to decide about the tender for sand for the season: At the last meeting of the city council, on the motion of Ald. Graham, it was de- cided that the penalty clause must be included in the tender of 'the Kingston Sand Company. Ald. Gra- ham contended that the city would be very unwise in accepting the ten- der unless the penalty clause was in- serted. He claimed that without this clause the council had n¢ assdrance that the Board of Works would have the sand it required during the sum- mer months. The council was told by some of the aldermen, who were in a position to know, that the sand company would refuse to sign the contract if the penalty clause was inserted. The company has lived up to the conten- tion made by the aldermen, and is {only willing to sign the contract it the penalty clause is omitted. It is claimed that if the council insists on inserting the penalty clause and the company withdraws its ten- der, the council will be called upon 40 go on the open market for sand. If sand is shipped in, it will mean that the council will have to secure waggons to draw it to blaces where {iit is to be used. STOCK MARKETS. Quotations Furnished by Bongard, *.
