ing-order prohibiting George w. Hiett from
teaching school in building No. 4, in Jack
son Township. this county. Trouble arose

and kept on teaching. The whole settlement
came into court yesterday. Able lawyers
were. engaged on both sides. Hiett set up

THE SALOONKEEPERS.

OPPOSITION TO INCREASING LICENSES
A mass-meetiug of saloonkcepers was an
nounced to take place yesterday afternoon al .
o.citrk at North Side Turner-Hnll. The object
of the gathering was understood to be the regis
tratton OF protest against the proposed increase
Of the license for the sale Of liquors, ETC. Saloon
keepers are not usually punctual set, anu
so o'clock arrived before the meeting was
called to order by Herman Langenhahn, Vice
President Of the Saloonkeepers' Assoclauon-
About sixty representatives Of the trade we're
present. Mr.. Louis Schwuchow was then placed

sdercd bigh enough. A number of German
speakers delivered themselves ut length upon
the subject. when Mr.: LangenhAhn moved tnat
committee Of three be aPRointcd to draw up a
series Of resolutions agninsk the proposed IN
crease Of the license, and that these resolutions
be handed to the Mayor. .- e A..
Stock / ards favored the motion. He believed
the whole thing an aristocrattc piece of business,
plain whether the Mayor favored the aristocracy
" Messrs' les Gammiii. schroth, and Yoke were ap-
pointed such committee, who retired 70 ppfe- pre-
Miller said the Mayor and the Council should be
asked their object in entertaining the PROPOSE
ton to raise the ltcensc-whether It was for the
purpose Of benetlttng the City Treasury, or
whether tho object was to assist the temperance
people ut the expense Of the sa1oonkeepers. II
the former object was sought to be accom-
plished, tho speaker thought the other b1si-
ncsses-dry-goods, grocery, hotels, etc.-should
be proportionarcy taxed.
Several speakers followed in the same strain.
RESOLUTIONS.
The above-na Committee then presented
the following:
.' Rcsolccd, By the saloonkeepers OF Chicago in
mass meeting assembled, that the attempt to
increase the Ecense-fce to $l50 is an unWar-
ranted and unjust discrimination against a
brunch of business already heavily taxed by the
United States, State, County, and City Govern
ments. ----
RESOLVED, That such an increase would not
tend to lessen the number Of disrepntable places,
while great many respectable and law-ablding
saloonkcepers, who are dependent upon their
business for their support and the support OF
their families, would be unable to meet this in
creased expense.
Resolrcd, Tint q committee Of five be ap-
pointed By this meeting and instructed to lay
these resolutions before his Honor the Mayor
and the members of the Common Council.
The above resolutions we're unanimously car
ried, and the following Committee appointed:
Messrs. Schroth, Volke, Gammill, Cinens, and
Rouhen.

GOULD COMING WEST AGAIN.

GOULD COMING WEST AGAIN.
Jay Gould is going to make another trip to
the West next week. It is claimed that the
principal object of it is to attend the meeting
of the Southwestern Railway Association.
which will be held in st. Louis March 3, to
look into the causes Of the present troubles
among The roads in the Missouri River pool.
As heretofore stated in THE TRIBUNE, the
principal blame for the preearious condition
Of the pool is laid on the Missouri Pacific,
mainly owned by Gould, which line refuses
Chicago il Alton and other Chicago roads for
carrying a surplus of business, The Chicago
roads, which only q short time ago paid the
St. Louis lines $4,000, of course feel sore at
the qapI;n;cpled aco9 i sod ct the ader is
the impression that this amount has
to be paid BY the GarriSons, from whom he
purchased the road. This, however, is only
subterfuge, rs Gould can hardly claim that
ne is'not responsible tor the deots OF the
Gould aiu not mean to carry out the pooling
agreement, lie should have given notice upon
obtaining control Of that road that he would
not be Il member of the Southwestern Assocla-
pocketed all the benefits accrulng therefroln;
It is believed that Mr.. Gould has been nsled
by the managers Of the Missouri Pacltlc, and
that he will settle up when the real facts are
laid before him. The fact that the South
western poolisto terminate on the 1st OF May
is ITO, reason why any Of the lines should re-
putiiate their old obligations.
While the above matter IS assigned as the
reason for Gould's visit West, yet it is certain
that the real object one 9f ne d mose re1d @
never make sucli all extended trip. 1t seems;
more likely that lie has some more railroad
acceSslOns and combinations in view. 1t Is
reported that he has virtually obtained con-
