The streets were occupied yesterday with the adj
vance army of May movers. They were intrenched
on the sidewalks with shapeIess parcels, bulgIng
boxes and MISUNDERSTANDING baskets; while the
payements were in many places baricaded
with pots and pans and other ugly-look-
ing missiles If the city were 1T

dynamite no better time could be found ny tho
plotters to carry out their schemes than he anDui

,ha week however, being a mole convenient time
for the removal of Office furniture, 1t was generally
taken advantage of for that purpose especially Dy
persons who have no fear that the Penal Code VIII

fewer changes this year than last SO lar TINS view
has not been borne out by the facts Indeed, real
estate agents said that there were fuiy as many
changes in Offices this season as last The desire

yeniences can be had, leads many to desert old and
unimproved structures. There is with the increase
of wealth Al increasing desire to avoid the annoy
anees OF stoves and other old-fashiOned cOutrivan-
ces. and there will probsbly not be much decrease
in ofice-Inovng until the lower part of the city is
practically rebuilt, and all the business structures
are provided with the modern convenences and
safety appliances Ii was noticeable yesterday that
