That there IS great extorti0n daily practiced by
the drivers OF hacks, especially on strangers Wis
itir this city, and much lnsoiagee on the part Of
drivers, there Is doub.. To prevent this as far
as possl bls positive instructions have been given
to the Police to sammon every yioaior OF the or
diuance TO this office, to answer Tor the offence IN
the most urinary manner. It's psas ltiGs will be
rigldiy enforced. But many offences must reees-
sarily go unpupished unless those upon whoa
imposition aud exJorIioa ara Practical will give
in formation at this Office of the offender. This
can be done by taking notice Of and furnishing
the No. of the hack; and, to this extent Invoke
the aid Of The pubic The necessity OF this is 81
once obvious, as it is idle to give information Of
an offence without some clue to the offender
The No. required to be on every hack " Ill cef-
tainly disclose the owner as vel. az drlvsr-
That those concerned may take heed 1t Is re-
psated that the highest penalties of the ordinance
will be enforced against all who shall violate rs
provisions. JOSEPH MAYO.
