There was no agreement between witness and applicant for 'a reuowal of lease

Mr l'ownall applied for an adjournjmcut until the 30th of June, when tho 'new license will bo required, to enable the repairs to be completed. The Chairman said it was evident that the Committee's idea of necessary repairs, and Mr McHutchoa'B wero very different,

A. J. Stewart, tho applicant, deposed that he had informed Mr McHutchon about the police report upon the house. Ho understood that tho repairs were to bo completed by the 22nd hist.; but ho did not know that it was absolutely necessary to bo up to time, He was (mite ready to do his part of the repairs, Tho Committee then considered their decision, taking about an hour and a half.

On resuming, the Chairman read a resolution to tho effect that the licenso would not be granted until tlionecessary repairs could be carried out, In order to give tho licensee time to effect these necessary _ alterations, tho. Committee would adjourn the application further until Friday the 29th inst., at 3.30 p.m. At that date it must bo proved to the satisfaction of tho Committee, on a certificate of Messrs Pcnty and l\)rdc,or Mr 6, E. Bond, architects, tint tho house had been put in a state of ropair, If thoy were satisfied that tho repairs had been carried out, or that they were being carried out, tho Committco would grant a fresh license, on the 29th inst.

Low, asking that the Committco reconsider tlicir decision, arrived at on their last meeting, which was to the effect that the hotel should chango hands within three months. Willi reference to tho above application, the Chairmau road tho resolution of the Committco which was to the effect that the law undenvhichthe Committee worked, prohibited them from altering a decision once arrived at, Nevertheless tho Committee did not wisli to bo hard on the licensee. They would not force hcrintbasalc which would be disadvantageous to her. If, therefore, at tho next meeting she proved to tho Committco that sho had been conducting the houso properly, and had not been able to sell without sacrificing her own interests, the Committee would grant her an extension of time in which to effect tho tonsfer, which must, however, be effected. Tho Committee then adjourned uutil tho 29th of June.
