tition of Mr. Carroll with regard to ty At Dls,
dition of the Second District NesOrisana
Market, reported verbally that the C. SAD
plant pertained to the Dependencies and
Public Buildings, and it was SO referred. -.
The next business on the calendar was
q petition from the coal dealers asking q /
modification OF the wood and coal ordl-
nance recently passed. Referred to the De-
partment Of Commerce, May 3.
Mr.. Emley orally reported that he had the
matter under consideration but was OF sat-
listed what should be done in answer to the
petition, and asked some further time.
Mr.. Shaw said something ought to be done
at once to arrest the operation of the ordl'
nance while the Council were considering 1t.
He moved the following resolution:
Resolced, That the operation OF ordinance

ordinance dividing the city into two "ood
and coal divisions, aud appointing inspect
ors thereof and providing penalties, De
and the same is hereby suspended until
further action OF the Council.
In support of the resolution, he stated
that E. J. Jenkins. one of the inspectors,
had been issuing certificates of wood inspec'
ton without giving dates Or the numbers OF
the carts.
Mr. Emey thought that was reason fer
suspending the inspector, but not for sus-
pending the ordinance. He was inclined to
advocate partial suspension, as far as the
coal part went, but thought the wood IN
spection clause should be maintained.
Mr. Shaw said the ordinance was not
| working right. He wanted an inspection OF
wood, but not a mere issue OF certificates at
twenty-five cents each.
Mr.. West seconded Mr.. Shaw's resolution
| for the reasons advanced By the Admins
| traitor of Commerce himself.

stitu.e to the resolution and in the mean
time the Council took up other business,

| to call.

from the market farmers, asking an eXten-
sion of time, which was referred to the De
partment of Commerce, Mays.
Mr.. Emley said he had the matter under
consideration. He should be glad to do
something for the public markets, which
were aggrieved good deal by their neigh

the City Attorney if the private markets
could not be closed at the same hour as the
public markets, and learned they could not,
except on sanitary considerations. He had
accordingly referred the matter to the
Board of Health. If it was found that the
private markets could not be closed he
would then ask for one or two hours more
to be allowed the public markets.
The Mayor l wish somebody would
move that the public markets be kept open
until twelve o'clock. advise it any way.
hi. Walton moved resolution in accor-
