It is understood the fire and waterworks committee,'to whom his resignation was reterred, will report ad- vesely toits aceeptance. The local board of underwriters met in session Thursday afternoon, and among other things passed, a resolution on the matter. This resolution commends Chief Butler's good record inthe past, and re- (\m‘ah’llw city council to retain him at the head of the department.
