LAKE COLERTBGE SCHEME.
MR BLACK'S BEPORT.
The Mayor informed a 'Tress" representatives yesterday that Mr Black's report on the Lake Coleridge scheme was a highly favourable document. One da'iso of the report read."—'lt is plain from the investigations that tho Government's terms are so lew that the Council could not possibly generate the same amount of power under the same conditions of demand in any type of fuel-using station at a cost that would make the choice of service a. matter of any hesitation."
Mr Parry Government hydro-electric engineer, who has come down on business connected with the Lake Coleridge scheme, arrived from Wellington yesterday morning, and will return tonight. Mr Parry has promised to be present at the special meeting of the City Council when Mr Black's report on the scheme will bo discussed.
