Powell. ex- plained that this was the rst time since the corporation took over the plant that the current receipts exceeded the current ex- penditures. He didn t want to take all the credit to himself ; it was due a good deal to Messrs. Johnston and Duff. The corpora"- tion had needed time to get -the department into working order. The debentures of $35.- 000 had not been sufficient to pay the com- pany and" put in the required machinery. They had instituted 300 or 400 lamps from which the first revenue had not been re- ceived. The increase in expenditure for fuel was due to the increase in wood and the extra power used. The Waterworks earnings were practically the same. There was a decit of $500. and it was for the Council to providehow to meet the interest on the debenture. Permanent work had been done-on thepumps. Referring to the sewers he `thought all corporation work . should be done by dav labor. In reference to overdraft of about $4000, he said the pro- per way todo was to issue a by-law and pay off. As to the electric light department he prophesied $1000 surplus next year. "mLn.nw!nn nuuln n rnfnnnnnn in `nu! unnr : IQIDBU uunu Ill. UDII Uuv vs vuv cunu av vs In I Aid.

In his com- mittee he had asked. Perhaps. he said, he "had -done so too much as his worlghad been interiered with.
