A ripple of excitement was created among the
dealers In the Georgetown market and the Farmers
and Butchers Market yesterday by the arrest of n
about n dozen on the charge of selling without n
license. In the Police Court the case of James
Daily. n butter and egg dealer in the old George
town or Corporation Market, was first called. The
defense was that under the corporation market
law of 1868 the dealers in this market were exempt
from license tax, the rent paid to the District be.
ing considcrcdas reconsideration for the privilege of
selling. Mr.. Daily has never paid license tax.
Judge Smell held that under the general license
law no dealers were exempt and imposed the
usual fine of So An appeal was taken, and Mr..
Daily gave bonds for his appearance James ii.
Poplilns, green grocer In the Farmers and
Butchers Market, was Rrraigncd OH similar
charge, but made different defense. How Is II, y
asked Mr.. Popkins, that men are selling all over
the street without license, and two or three green
groCers have to pay?' Judge Smell frOwncd Mr.
Popkins down BY replying that they had to begin
somewhere, and f the law was not executed II was
not his fault Mr.. Popkns said he would get a
license, and was released on his own recognzancc
Henry II. Howe, who was also arraigned, said that
he was the son of his father and his father kept the
stand. His father told him he would pay If the
others did. Mr.. Howe was released under the same
conditions as Mr. Popkns. There were nine other
cases from the Corporation Market, but all the de-
PENDANTS were released with the understanding
that they would procure licenses.
A .goodly number of interested spectators Assem-.
