Two courses were open to the town. The Council could instal an entirely new plant, . and Order the present one off the streets, or they could purchase the _ present plant and utilize such parts as were serviceable in connection with Niaâ€" gara power. To a fairâ€"minded . perâ€" son only one course was open to the council, namely to enter into negotiaâ€" tions with Mr. Snider and secure the: best possible terms with him. This the Council; decided to @o, especially as it would,. if an amicable settleâ€" ment was atrived at, do away with any friction or illâ€"feeling that might arise later on. The Council felt that Mr. Snider had given the town as good a service as possible in the past, and in justice to him, an _ atâ€" tempt should first be mado to reach a settlement with him béfore making other arrangements. Price for Plant on Streets, Together With Othe Parts Included l&m.

Very little was accomâ€" plished at this meeting further than that the atmospbere was cleared â€" of considerable _ misunderstanding . beâ€" tween the two parties. _A meeting was, however, arranged between Mr. Snider and the whole Council, which took place a few days later. At this meeting the whole question was fully discussed, and Mr. Snider submitted two propositions, one to sell the entire plant for a trifle over $22,000, and the other to sell the whole outside plant, together with all direct current machinery and some supplies on hand, for $16,000.

J. Philip, engineer of Berâ€" lin, who had been asked to makte‘ & valuation for the town, had. recomâ€"* mended to purchase. _ The council, however, thought the price a little too high. The committee mentioned above was therelore â€"empowered . . +0 continue the negotiatfons with Mr. Snider, and try to goet a reduction in the price if possible. ~Another meeting was held and the result reâ€" ported to the council. At this meetâ€" ing Mr. Snider held out for the price offered, $16,000, while the committee offered first $14,000 and then tlt,_&’. They refused, however, to ofo above this without the sanction of the counâ€" cil. On Monday last the Mayot called a special meeting of the Council, _ and after a full report of the proceedings so far was given, hbe asked every inâ€" dividual member cf the Council . to express his opinion on the matter, espécially in reference to the . price. The committee arranged _ another mecting with Mr. Snider Thursday afternoon and after considerable . disâ€" cussion. he offered to split the differâ€" ence between $15,000 and $16,000, and sell for $15,500.
