THE TREE BOX SIGNS.
Those Along the Avenue Must Go.


Commissioner West was asked last evening
what further action would be taken by the
district authorities with reference to the tree
box signs along Pennsylvania avenue.
81 don't suppose anything further will be
required" he replied "There seems now to
be general disposition to comply with tho
order for the removal of the signs The sole
purpose of the commissioners in this matter
was to remove objects that tended to
disfgure the avenue. 1t could not be reason
ably claimed by the merchants of the avenue
that these tree box signs were necessary to
the prosecution of their business. Merchants
ON the other streets have never been accorded
any such privilege, and while Seventh, Ninth,
and F streets are filled with stores, the tree
boxes along those thoroughfares have never
been used as sign boards"
"Is it probable that any further legal steps
will be taken to resist the enforcement of the
orderP"
II think not; the refusal of Judge Hagner
to grant the injunction prayed for about ex-
hausted opposition in that direction. Some
of the parties claimed the right to thirty
days notice where permits had been granted,
and in such cases we have deemed it best to
allow the delay. At the expiration of that
time ! think the last tree box sign will disap-
pear without further trouble There are no
new features in the matter, and no prospect
of new complications arising"
