The Board of Electrical Control met in tba odloe of Mayor Hewitt la the Stewart Building yesterday. AH the member War present, Tee Mayor becaa the session by saying that some one of the Commissioners had ecetued him of not adopting reaolatlon for new alec-trie light conduit, which would Bare resulted la having wires placed la them, and asxed that the member who had mad tbe charge ackaowl-edga hi guilt Nobody took up th gag of battle for a fw momenta, when Mr.

Gib be a asked If tb Mayor referred to aim. I refer to nobody in particular," replied Mr. Hewitt. Mf. Oibben claimed that if th Mayor had rotad for a resolntloa which he had la trod need providing for the construction of 25 mile of electric Light conduits the elty would be lighted by electricity by tbl time.

He said that the work oa electric light eondnlta was suspended because oc the anxiety of tbe Mayor to lot contract to various electric light rompant to light the city. But the acheme of th Mayor was a failure Tbe Mayor and Mr. Gibbons both asked question of Edward Leuierbach, who represented tbe Consolidated Telegraph and Electrical Hub-war Company, a to tbe ability of tbe company to hare constructed last year aay part of tbe electric light eondnlta. Mr. Lauterhaeb answered that be thought If tbe work had been ordered early In tbe year good progress might have been made in tbe eonatruction of the conduit.

While be had as yet seen no wild desire on tbe part of electric light companies to place tbelr wires In the conduits already constructed, yet this might arise from the fact that there was as yet no continuous system of conduit. If the 25 mile of additional conduit had been ordered laat year, auch a system might bare beea made ready for tbe use of such oompanlas, and the companies could have been forced to nse tbe conduits thu provided. A report wss read from Leonard Y. Beckwlth, tbe enrlneer of the contracting company, showing (hat about 50 iir ceut. of tbe work ordered last year yet remained to be completed.

Tb Mayor Inquired wnv. if sir. Lautarbach' company bad only performed 50 per rent, or tbe work ordered last year, it recommended tbat so muob new work be authorized, i Ibe explanation wa made tbat tbe conditions were more favorable for tbe work tbl year than In 1887. Mr Uibben made tbe Mayor angry hy remarking that the latter bad failed to apply tbe remedial legislation provided for In tbe law la case tbe companies refused to take down the pole and wire and place th latter la the conduits provided for them. "That a statement that I absolutely untrue," exclaimed the Mayor.

I reiterate the statement," remarked Mr. Uibben. "And I say It I not true." retorted the Mayor. Ibe Mayor of toe city ha refused to order tbe Bureau of Inoumbranoes In the Department of Public Works to tske down the poles and wires" tbl from Mr. Gllibens.

"Tbe Mayor of tne city has done no such thing" this from Mr. Hewitt "and If he ha refused to enforce tbe law why don't you, as a good citizen. Impeaob him am willing to impeach replied Mr. Glbbene. Tbe board, after some further wrangling between Mr.

Ulbbens sod tbe Mayor, ordered the contracting company to go on with tbe uncompleted work of last year, beginning wltb tbe first week in May. The plans for new work were referred to the engineer of tbe board. 1'resldeut Hes submitted an application from tbe Mount Morris Electrio Light Company for authority to erect poles upon which to string electric light, wires in certain streets in this city. Mr. Ulbbens objected, saying that be did not propone to vote for the erection of anotber pole in this city.

Pendlor action on the application Mr. Ulbbens submitted a draft or a letter to tbe Major In wblch tbe latter Is requested to bsve tbe Bureau of Incumbrances take down tbe poles In street where conduits have been constructed. Tbe Mayor eaid Iliac bia time was too valuable to be taken up in that way, and be left tbe TUe qnentlon men came up oa tbe Monnt Morris Company' application. Mr. Olbbens moved to adjourn, but be was voter) down.

Then be asked to lie excused and left the meeting, harluir, a he remarked, the board without a quorum. Turn I'll make a quorum," said the Mayor, who bad been watching tbe proceedings from bis desk, and he took bis accuatotned seat at tbe table. Then, on motion of tbe Mayor, the matter was laid over.

"--ti A- QUESTION Bread, biscuit and cake, now generally madefy the aid of "baking powder, enter, so largely into our dally food that their debasement by the introduction of any injurious or deteriorating substance is a matter of serious concern to the public health. What baking powder shall we use to avoid the lime and alum now found in so many leavening agents, and to insure pure, sweet and wholesome bread, is a question, therefore, of direct importance to every individual.

The "Royal" has been determined by the Government chemists and the most prominent food analysts to be the only baking powder made that is entirely free from lime, alum and other impurities, and absolutely pure. It is made from cream of tartar refined for its exclusive use by patent processes by which the tartrate of lime is totally eliminated. No other baking powder manufacturer uses chemically pure cream of tartar, and hence the adulteration of other brands. The "Royal" is, accordingly, the only baking powder that will produce perfectly pur bread, biscuit, cake, pastry, and these articles are now pronounced more wholesome when raised by the Royal Baking Powder than when leavened by any other agent. It is particularly a question of health, therefore, what baking powder we shall use and those who appreciate the miseries of dyspepsia and other ailments that follow the use of impure food will not hesitate to select the "Royal" CASH OR CREDIT.
