WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1896.
The ' Post' is astonished at the apathy of the Hunedin City Council in the matter of securing control of the tramways within their borders, and whether the action taken the other day was wise or not the citizens will discover within the next fourteen years. Mr T. Scott was the presiding justice at the Police Court this morning, when Emma P.iniell, who had not been before the Court for eicht months, was convicted and dis charged. A first offender, who, while in a state of intoxication, cowardly assaulted a man in Maclaggan street, was fined 10s or forty-eight hours' imprisonment.
