Middle Men In Market.
SOME ONE WHO OPPOSES THEM.


A petition is going around to-day, and
will be presented to Council this even
ing, In ard to Jersey hucksters. 1t will
ask Council to consider the propriety of
specifying location for the express use
of produce dealers, commonly called
hucksters, from New jersey, in order
that people may purchase more cbeaply
from them, and will not be compelled 10
buy from the "middlemen" at higher
grices, through Ignorance of where the
Jersey people are.
The petition recommends that Fourth
street, east of King street, be set apart
for this class of market people, and that
they be permitted to expose their pro
duce here every week day, except after
specified hour on Saturday. 1t also
asks that the Clerk of the Market be
given authority to collect rent from them
for the privilege of selling in the street,
and advises Council to fix the amount OF
rent to be charged.
When the market was held on Market
street the location of the hucksters
was specified by ordinance.
