in accordance with a'petition submitted
by the city weighers some six or eight
months ago. The petitioners called attention
to the fact that tho use of natural gas had
cut down the receipts from their offices very
largely, they sometimes ranging as low as
thirty to fifty cents per day, and askedthat
during the period embraced between the
first Of May and the first of October they
he allowed the entire receipts of the scales,
this being of course, in addition TO the
regular percentage during the remainder OF
the year. The committee decided that the
petition was reasonable and ordered that

1t will he remembered that at the last
meeting of the Council Mr.. Delbrugge,
in the First Branch, offered resolution
providing for the drafting of an ordinance
making it an offence, punishable by fine,
for boys OF the age of ten years and over
to congregate about the doors of places Of
amusement, etc. This resolution was
passed by the First Branch, hut was re-
iected by the Second, some of the mem
bers stating that the existing ordinances,
if enforced, would afford ample relief. The
Ordinance Committee took up this matter
last night, some of those present saying
the resolution ought not 70 have been sent
to the Second Branch all, the reference
to the Committee in the First Branch being
sufficient. The committee proceeded to
discuss the matter, and finally ordered the
Solicitor to draw up an ordinance making
it a R6able offense for any persons above
the age of six years 70 cougregats upon the
streets or about places of amusements, and
repeating all existing laws upon the sub
ject.

NEW CITY LAWS
Ordered Framed by the COMMITTEES on
Ordinances, Last Night.


The Council Committee OF Ordinances
held a brief but very important session
last evening, at which several ney city
laws we're blocked out, ready for the City
Solicitor to put the ideas into legal form.
The first matter taken up was the recon-
mendation of His Honor the Mayor, in his
late message to Council. strongly adVo-
eating the closing of the saloons at mid
night every night. After an expression OF
opinion it was found that the committee
was unanimously in favor OF the legislation
suggested, the only question being the best
means of attaining the desired end. The
committee finally approved the draft OF an
ordinance closing the saloons at midnight
and prohibiting their being opened until b
o'clock the following morning, and also
incorporated a provision requiring proprle-
tors and bar-tenders, on closing for the
night, to so dispose blinds and screens as
to give the passing officers on the beat
every opportunity to see behind and along
the bar. An infrsction of any of the pro-
visions of the ordinance was made O mis-
demeanor, punishable with a fine OF not
less than five nor more than twenty dol
lars. .
