CARD FROM INDEPENDENT HACKMEN.
To the Editor of the INDIANAPOLIS Journal.
The Journal of Nov. % does an injustice to
the hackmen of this city. There was no meet
ing where they determined to charge SIS for the
use of their vehicles at the Hendricks funeral.
On the contrary. Mr.. Renihan. chairman on
hacks, has had no trouble to engage all the hacks
at his own price. Some parties wanted to hire
all the hacks for that day and then sub-let them.
but the scheme did not work The Council and
Board of Aldermen had better instruct the super
tendent of police TO arrest and punish all owners
of hacks running without license, as many are
doing.
There was to have been meeting by hack
owners for the purpose of reducing rates to &C
commodate the public, and not bully them as
stated in the journal. MANY HACKMEN
