SWERAGE
The sewer committee of Springfield, Mass., voted to advertise for bids for the building of the brick work on the trunk sewer. Chairman Holmes was instructed to ascertain how $30,000 could be obtained for payment of the laborers for the coming work on the sewer. The city solicitor was instructed to draw up an agreement for the acceptance of the city government and C. P. Ranlet, in which Mr. Ranlet agrees to allow the city to run through his land providing that the city shall exempt him from all sewer assessments and that any sewers that he may wish on the tract in question shall be built by himself.
At Stroudsburg, Pa. , there is talk of granting a franchise for a system.
