An 'amendment was carried deleting the expression of disapproval, but practically carrying the remainder of tho Mayor's motion with an addition that councillors should also have the samo right as the Mayor of obtaining information. Several other motions of the Mayor were defeated and the council carried a resolution (which the Mayor opposed) that in the future the engineer should havo full control of the staff.
