The desirableness- of removing '.Martin's Fountain from tho junction of . Lambton Quay aiid Featherston Street to- thoi Post Office Square was discussed at last night's meeting of the City Council. Councillor Shirtcliffe thought that if the. proposal were adopted!there would be cong&stion of traffic to and from the Queen's Wharf. The Mayor, jn. reply, said that the. Engineer ■ was of opinion that better, regulation of the traffic would result. Councillor Fletcher'held that instead of causing an additional obstruction tc be placed in the Square, a better tiling to do would be to remove the Queen's Statue. Councillor Cohen: It'was a-mistake to put it there. The Mayor : Wo all agree on that point. Councillor Cohen: Tho fountain might be placed in front of the Public Library.
