The Attorney-General listened to the charges 'n silence, making no defence who te ver. An Investigation was nsked for, but th*- Ifiuise 'went Into committee, of Supply, and no stepfl were taken. council. But notwithstanding any satisfactory explanations he might make. Alderman Mclnnis thought that It--would make the council look like 30 Cents t take back water now, and therefore lie ought to-be dismissed.

Aldcrmnn Grlndley wild u number of complaints hud been made to the council by several superintendents, and this stnrle.i the Investigation which led to lhe dismissal. Every alderman made notes of OiIb Investigation, but he did him know of ny one who was taking minutes for. the committee. Ho did not know whether the charges were road In council or not. He remembered rending the charges, but couldn't say where or when. Tlu gt; committee'never Rot out a report nor were the questions ever put In wrltinu. He snld' there were charges he might himself bring against the commissioner. He Identllled the charges in n Copy of a newBpnper oh being identical with those ho had read. He didn't know whether It had been prep'sred by council or not. Ho had no Idea whether he hnd slRhed papers containing the charges or not. Pressed for a definite answer, hs refused to nnswer-on the advice of counsel Solicitor O'Connor advising him in this way. He believed a document containing the charges existed, but he didn't know where he saw It. when he saw it. or In whose custody It was when he saw It. Solicitor Biggar then told him that he was the first alderman to be examined who refused to answer nr give Information voluntarily. To which he replied. It Is not my fault because you have had easy marks to deal with. His own oplnlcu of Commissioner Bouillon w:. v it he was not a business mm haJ no tact and no Judgment.

He didn't think the '.-itizens of Edmonton wanted the members of lhe council to take what Commissioner Bouillon h d attempted to impose On them, and' for thb* reaion, even though the commissioner mado satis. factory explanation, he should be dismissed. He said the council wa* supreme und Commissioner Bouillon's insubordination was , unreasonable, and the City could not afford to keep a man who would not lake orders from the counrtl.

Ho said that satisfactory cause for the dismissal of Bouillon was not on the records of the council He voted for the resolution dismissing him. partly because of the trip he took uround the city. He snld he was n party to the preparation of the 31 charges. If Commissioner Bouillon answered those charges he would want more an- swecwi. and under the existing conditio. - he didn't thlnfi he could answer tl*em.
