a Petition was presented to the Governor, to suspend operations for a time. The vastiiess of the scheme began to tarelly some of our leading financiers, and it was deemed advisable by many to wait for bit- ter times. This course, however, was not approved by the Government, and; the prayer of the Petition was refuted.

-Mr Cooper fails to realise the reasonable news shown by those residents who the called for a suspension of operations, and, after that request had been denied them, next called upon the Government to se- colemte the work. Early in 1893 it was feared the completion of the Reclamatione Singapore Municipality propose to would overstrain the resources of the Co-
spend 3100 upon in address and a czaket lony. Three year subsequently, the pa- for presentation to Her Majesty the Queen. tienon of the residents was strained to a breaking, point by the dilatoriness of the officials in charge of the work. The in- conveniences caused by an apparently and-
