Mr. Peters, from the committee presented Tesolu
ton approprang $3.50 for the payment of the clerks en-
ployed by the Recorder in amending the assessment roll
which passed.
ugs offered resolution repeating the second section of the
ordinance passed Apri 18Th, 1913, imposing fine on pro-
duce goods remaining the evee beyond the time mi
ted by the ordnance and to repeal the amendment of the
ordinance passed the 18th July last Mr. Renshaw said
the Committee had agreed present this resolution because
the ordinance it exists is Onerous upon the commerce OF
the city without the object for which it enacted being
attained That object keep the Levee free Of IN
necessary mpedmen to the landing of producebut as 1t is
carried ou-of large quantity of goods but single load,
perhaps carried off by the whanger store, and the bal
ance is allowed to remain the Levee. Thus, while the
merchant Is fined together with being compelled TO pay
storage and dayage the goods the great bulk OF them is
still allowed to remain the Levee. The Committee
thought would be equally ecacous to do away with the
fine and retain the portion of the ordinance compelling the
of goods who does not them within the pre-
scbed time to pay carriage and storage The resolution
adopted.

vidng for the filing up of the school lots Dryades street.
