Bergi-r km of Wlien our city fathers sat down to their regular word fest at 7 o'clock last night it wa announced that there was nothing to do. Nevertheless it was two and one-quarter hours later when they adjourned. During the interim however, they raked tip enough matters to keep them talking and not -the least import ant was the calling of C. L. Bugbee, con tractor of the central fire station, to ex plain certain defects in the building. This Mr. Bugbee. did, laying most of the blame upon the architect, Fred E. Col burn, xvho was not present, having re moved to New York since the building was erected a year ago. At the close of the discussion Mr. Bugbee was in structed to "fix up" the building and if he could show that he was not respon sible for the defects that the city should stand the expense; the -granite stones on the front which are stained, to be cleaned or replaced at Mr. Bugbec's tx lerise. The defects on which the con tractor was quizzed were: (1) Sagging of trusses due to faulty plans, the con tractor claimed; (2) staining of gTanita show- stones; (3) Leaking of roof, for which the contractor could assign no cause; (4) Buckling of sheathing, which Mr. Bugbee ascribed to moisture when laid; (5) Door out of plumb because ha was not allowed to construct according to his judgment. To remedy the sagging of the trusses Mr. Bugbee recommended as the "quick est, most economical and safest" way is the placing of three iron pillars in the apparatus room. He stated that th architect admitted to him last summer that he never should plan the arrange ment of the trusses as he had done. Mayor Barclay was inclined to believa with the contractor that the plans wer wrong. Alderman Burke via the mover of the motion instructing the contractor to make the repairs and there were no voices against it. Prior to the fire station business sev. era! of the aldermen reverted to quar- riuift oier waru improvements in the line of streets. Pending the arrival of the stone crusher the street committee ( was finally instructed to do what it can toward the laying of Cottage and. Brook streets, finishing up also Granite street, as the contract calls for, bu Aug ust first. The crusher waa ordered aouie , six weeks ago, and the council has hopes of it before snow tties. A motion was made by Alderman Milne and seconded by Alderman Thurston that Cottage and Brook streets be "finished" at once and they; and Mayor Barclay were the losers as Aldermen Cutler, Burke Albisetti and Campbell voted against it on the ground mat tne streets could not lie "finished''' until the crusher Ss here. Finallv a mo tion was presented that as much as pos sible lie done, and it was carried unanimously. During the discussion S'upt. of Streets Fred Bruce attempted to offer an ex planation of his work but was prompt ly squelched .by Mayor Barclay who said , that "considerable complaint had been entered" because Mr. Brttee participated in the city council discussions. Then Supt. Bruce asked if he couldn't speak as a private citizen and was told that after the meeting he might say all he wanted to say. Mr. Brute thanked the mayor and sat down. Conditions about the A. Tomast build ing on North Main street and at the corner of Second and North Main were . reported to be filthy, and the health board were ordered on the trail. A water rebate case on Bassett street was re ferred to the water committee and ait appropriation of $'.K)0 to the surface sew er account was ordered to second read ing. At a brief meeting of the aldermen during the shank of the evening Alex. Corey and Co. were given permission to recover roof at 33 Prospect street, and F., W.
