Hickey, had the resolutluns referred to the Connedl, and then Iguored the action of that hody. “The facts were that the resolutiona wero introduved in the Coundl before b (the Mayor) hnd known that sny charges had been made, He had not read the Pvaty und thought that there was not time from the hour of the print- ing of that edition of the puperwhich containd the churges to the thne of the introduction of the resolutlons for muny of the Aldcrmen to have read the paper.
