They indicated that tl desired to take advantage of the sixty daye’ time allowed for putting the ordinance into) Practice and wished to Pe in full readi- Ness by Aug. 1, the date of the going into force of the new order of things. The callers at the Mayor's office referred to Chief Wallace, who urged that the companies begin immu- Giately the installation of the new type would be in force by Aug. 1. Chief Wallace pointed out that the use of the Rew type of meter in advance of Aug. 1 would be illegal and that the use of the present form of meter after Aug. 1 would be illegal. The repreeshtatives showed entire willingness to acquiesce in everything demanded and the gathered the impression that the companies were not to fight the oity. This impression was heightened when the companies sent in a batch of two hundred applications for Hcenses for cabs under the new etyle meter sys- tem and by other ways advanced the belief that the whole situation was ‘ecoertable to them. The Mayor and Chief Wallace now realise that the companies were only “fooling” and were working in the dark to take the city unawares, Chief Wallace received the iast copy ‘of the elx injunctions to-day and for- warded it with the others to the Cor- poration Counsel. where jewels are kept.
