terH;nei.uEe.st•li•o.nDavis, replied to Mr., Mar-

TeterY said that during the year 1895-
90 there Was manufactured 962,000censee
pounds; in 18964, 1,518,000 pounds. In
1898 there was no twine made, as a
result' of the fire at the prison. The

Bfr. Davis laid. on the table the agree-
ment between the Goveruraent and

It provides that the company shallpur-
chase all the machinery, subject to ap-
proval by the Government. The com-
pany is to be reimbursed by allow-
antes from the amount due from la-
bour at the prison ov4r an average

tractors have to pay hail the salary

ufacture after March 1st four tons
of binder' twine per day. 'The agree-
silent is to be in force until 1905.
MUNICIPAL AUDITS.
The annual report of the Provineial
Municipal Auditor was placed on the
table. During 1898 the deficits in
municipal accounts amounted to 312 -...:
000, while in 1897 they amounted tat)

ed to the new system of book-keeping
