EMILY PLACE WORKS.

Agreement Between Harbour Board, City Council, and Freezing Company.

Tim following memoranda of a conference between the representative, of tho City Council, Harbour Board, and Now Zealand Frozen Meat and Storage Company on the proposal to cut down Emily Place, and the arrangements como to, were submitted at tho ordinary meeting of the Har bour Board this afternoon. It will be seen that tho cutting down has been determined upon, tho cost of compensation to be equally divided between the three bodies. By a formal arrangement, the City Council takes tho contract for tho cutting, the other two bodies providing tho money. The City Council afterwards, as its share of the work, forms and channels the streets. The following is tho report :— "Minutes of a joint meeting of a joint committee held at the office of the Auck land Harbour Board, Fort-street, on Friday, the 31st day of August, 18S3. Present: Messrs Stone, Nathan, and Walker (Finance and Legal Committee of the Auckland Harbour Board); Messrs Waddel, Garrett, Phillipps, and Aickin (Legal Committee of the City Council) ; Mr J. C. Firth (Chair man of New Zealand Frozen Meat and Storago Company). Mr Stone in the chair. "The Committee having considered various matters in connection with proposed cutting down of Emily Place, it was re solved, '«' That this Committeo recommend—

" 1. That as it is desirable in the interests of the citizens of Auckland that Emily Place and the adjoining properties should be cut down to the levels as shown on plans in the office of tho City Council, and as advertised, the Harbour Board, City Council, and New Zealand Frozen Meat and Storage Com pany undertake conjointly to pay in equal proportions all costs for compensation for cutting down Emily Place to such levels. " 2. That the City Council undertake to provide a site to be approved of by tho authorities of St. Paul's Church in exchange for the present site, the present site to be transferred to the City Council upon an approved sito being provided, "3. That the City Council undertako upon Emily Place beinc cut down to form and channel all tho roods on tho now levels, as advertised.

'' 4. That tho Harbour Board and Freezing Company undertake to remove all the earth from Emily Placo and the adjoining properties free of cost to the City Council or owners of the property. " 5. That tho Freezing Company purchase any properties requiring to be purchased, and sell tho samo upon tho work of cutting down to the new levels being completed, the Harbour Company and City Council undertaking to pay tho Freezing Company their equal proportions, or one-third each of any loss, and the Freezing Company dividing any profit that may accrue on tho transaction. '* 6. Interest on purchase monoy to be al lowed at current bank rates until tho pro perty is sold. " 7. That tho City Council undcrtako to carry out the contract for cutting down Emily Place, the Harbour Board and New Zealand Frozen Meat and Storago Company indemnifying the Council against any loss that may occur other than tho City Council's responsibility for one-third of the amount of compensation as above noted subject to provisions of clause 4). "8. That the whole of the works above eferred to bo completed within a term of two years from date of commencement of works."

The report was adopted, aid the terms of the arrangement approved. There was no discussion on tho subject. It was subsequently agreed that £1,500 should be offered to Mr Basset* without prejudice in settlement of his claim. The Chairman said Mr Bassott's claim was £8,090, £700 being for rolling stock and £1,000 for compensation and prospec tive profits ; £3 10s a day being sot down for loss of time. Mr Hales assessed his claim against the Government at £700 odd, while ho (the chairman), with other members of the Com mittee thought i' 1,250 was a fair amount, the difference being for reclama tion. The amount Mr Bassett got from tho Government was £1,800. Mr Mays Thought that the clafm was a most disgraceful ono, and moved that £SOO be offered, but this was negatived.

The man who was formerly captain of the Skeleton Army, but who now belongs to the Salvation Army, and the man Elliott, who was recently ejected from tho Roman Catholic Cemetery, and who also belongs to the Salvationists, are said to be partners in the business of tea-selling. See how these Salvationists love one another !

Practical sympathy with, the Salvation Army movement is not at all wanting. Very recently the captain stated that owing to the want of sitting accommodation he would bo glad if some of the regular at tendants could manage to "bring their seats with them," but not expecting a response, as he was only joking. The next day, how ever, before the opening of the Temperance HaU, there might have been seen just out side a dozen now chairs for the convenience of those wbo would meeti
