Local Post Ellice Sabscriptions—Tly, 30 per annum, in advance, Mr. C. J. Hoxttpay seconded the resolution, Mr. 'T. W. Ktyosurit—As I moved the resolution hero at the last general me of ths ratepayers with regard to the rickshaw licenses, Ishould like to ask a question of the Municipal Council with gard to the fee which is put down for year of $14 for jinricsha licens: to ask whether it is the intention of the Council to limit the number of jinriokshas or not; und if it is, what number they intend to fix it at. 1 think every person who goes about the streets of the Settlement will acknowledge that the present system of unlimited licenses works very badly, An inferior class of rickshas and coolies have come into the streets, and frequent and serious accidents are the consequence.

It was the intention of the retiring Council to leave the matter to the Watch Committee of the new Council.
Me. Kisusmitt—I think it would be better that the Council should engage to limit the number in the forthcoming year, Idid not wish to put my suggestion in
