The committee on licenses last night con-
sidered the petition of John Wohlmaker for
hack license. Wohlmaker has had several
ups and downs since he has been hackmap.
Chief of Police Bollman revoked it short
time ago. Mr.. Wohlmaker said that he
thought the police were prejudiced against
him. Since he had been given license the
last time he thought he had behaved
Sergeant Bishop said he had had many
complaints against him. He was saucy and
impudent. He knew this from personal
knowledge. He said the police were not preiu
diced.
Officer Kennedy said Wohlmaker was un-
gentlemanly, insolent to ladies and not fit to
be hack driver.
Woh1maker stated that after the board OF
aldermen had reissued his license after Chief
BolIman had revoked it Officer Kennedy in
suited him and said that he would vet lose
his license.
This Officer Kennedy emphatically denied.
The committee voted to give Wohlmaker

New Hotel for the East Shore on the
Copper Works Blur = The West
shores Great Prosperity.
The sale of the copper works property to
Mr.. W. J.Atwater of Trumbull street, this
city, has awakened interest in this spot
which Mr.. Atwater intends to greatly Inn
prove and build summer cottages upon. Al
ready Mr.. Atwater has been approached by
capitalists who are negotiating with him in
reference to erecting handsome shore house
on the bluffs, slightly place for hotel. The
proposition comes in good faith and il the
parties come to an agreement the hotel will
probably be built during the coming sum-
mer. People residing at the Cove are conf
IDENTIFY expecting that some day fhe east
shore will get boom, something akin to
that which the west shore has had, where
property has advanced in twenty years i'm
mensely, or from $40 or less per front foot
on the best street Beach street) to over 500
per front foot. The demand for cottages at
the west shore continues undated. Every
year new ones are built, yet there are not
enough to supply the demands for rentals
This year it has been quite difficult to find
rents at Savin Rock. Most of the rentable
houses were rented in advance. and those
not SO rented were quickly taken by desira-
bic parties. The West Haven shore proper
ty owners naturally think, in view of this
state of things, that shore property has
not reached the top notch in value It is
said that many new shore cottages will be
built or contracted for at the Rock before an
other season goes by.
