Casey's Suggestion At the Instance of Aid. Georce B. Casey, who held that the council should in no way commit itself In the matter of Its own remuneration until the whole question of finances and possible expenditures had been gone Into thoroughly, the city council last night laid on the table until .next week the annual Indemnity bylaw providing remun eration to be given mayor and aldermen for the year's services. Aid. Casey suggested that Uie various committees should go into the whole situation with a view to making a report at an early meet ing oit the financial possibilities for the year. UntU this had been done, Aid. Casey felt that the council should not even express Intent of indemnifying its members. While not expressing opposition to the spirit of Aid. Casey's sug gestion, some of the other alder men thought the indemnity bylaw might be allowed to go through Its initial readings and amended, if deemed necessary, on coming up for reconsideration and adoption. Aid. Casey's views, however, prevailed and it was finally agreed to table the bylaw meantime. In response to Aid. Casey's sug gestion for an immediate survey of the year's possibilities so far as finances were concerned. Mayor Orme proposed that the situation could be gone Into by the council in an Informal way and that meet ings of the committees could be held before the next regular meet ing of the council which is to be held on Thursday evening of next week.
