A further lowering of the running costs is anticipated by the city fathers for the ensuing 12 months so that the fiscal r, which ended with November, mav be beaten by the coming year's record. Among the other important cussions will be the building draft; the police department salary increase; erection of a public comfort station and an overhead bridge con- necting Pond and North Pond streets. Although the building code will be discussed tonight, no action to make it operativé® is anticipated for sev- eral months yet as a space of time is needed to make all changes satisfac- tory.
