One good step towards nlng quota was taken yes

Kennedy, about two o'clock In the afternoon made
descent the recruiting booths located In the
Park, and said 70 be used for tho purposes Of pro-
curing volunteers and substitutes for other places
several Of them broken up completely, the police
having supplied themselves with the necessary nipple
ments for that purpose. others wsre by request
passed by the police, the understanding that
the owners themselves would phil down their o.ncss
without the assistance Of the officers Of the law ny th
arrangement stoves furniture trappngs Of
OF the booths were saved
Late in the day the work OF demolition
pended In consequence Of an arrangement entered
into between the police and the brokers that the latter
would give sufficient security to the authorities not TO
enlist men for any district outside the city. The amount
Of security required is i've thousand dollars from each
broker All who will not comply with this safeguard
VIII not be suffered to 60 with their business, and
their booths win be rcmorsclcssly demolished.
The Volunteer Committee have decided To give the
