A question raised by Mr. Gallaway caused considerable discussion among the Dunedin Benevolent Trusteos on Wednesday. This was: Should a woman in receipt of relief from tho trustees, on getting a largo lump sum for compensation from, tho Arbitration Court, be asked to refund tho money that she had received?' Mr. Gallaway, according to the "Daily Times," thought sho should bo asked to do so; and some of tho trustees agreed with him. Othors' scouted such an idea as preposterous, and one gentleman pointed out that the woman could not bo compelled to pay back what she had received in charity; also; that the court would probably arrange for her to rcceivo her money by .weekly instalments. It was finally decided that the trustees should not Bsk for what they wore unable to enforce.
