The LEW Under Which DIR. Wales
Demands Pay From the city.

Demands Pay From the city.
The communication cent TO City Ooun-
Gil by DIR. j. p. Wales, Thursday night, de-
msnding pug for the use of his pavement
for market purposes, brings to public
attention the provisions OF not gen.
orally understood law, by which oil
property owners whose sidewalks ere
used for market purposes are entitled TO
compensation.
The provision under which DR.. Wales
asks Council to allow him S27 is Section
3 of an act in relation to the street
markets in Wilmingtonton, passed At
Dover, April 18Th, 1885 and reading as
follows:
The person to whom such space Ion the
curbstone for market purposesl shall Da so
allotted shall, in addition, pay TO the city
clerk, for the use OF the owner or owners OF
the properly or properties In front OF which
such space shall be, the sum OF 80 cents, II
demanded by said owner or owners, for
each and every foot for the like period of
one year for the space so allotted. When
such annual sums shall have been paid as
hereinbeiore prescribed, the person paying
the same shall be entitled to the free use
thereof"
DR.. Wales is the first property owner
to demand the payment of 80 cents per
loot, which is allowed by law. No one
ever gave the matter any thought be-
fore, and the clerk has not been called
upon to collect the fee. He claims that
the clerk should have collected the fees
long ago and paid them over to the
property owners. ~ would rather pay
s. per year and not have the nuisance Of
the street market in front OF my house,
said DR.. Wales to an EVERY EVENING re-
porter to-day, shut as the law allows me
this compensation propose to get it,and
also to know exactly where the RESPONSE
bility for the use OF the street for market
purposes lies. City Councii referred Dr..
Wales communication to the Street and
sewer Department.

RAILROADS. Musr 0PERirE.


CouHCm BLurNs, Ia. Sept. % Yesterday
Judge Love OF the federal court rendered
decision which settles the right OF railroads
TO suspend operations OF non paying lines.
Attorney Sheldon Of Chicago tor the
United States Trust Company applied to
tho court for an order on the receiver OF
the Wabash system to have the road known
az the Clarinda branch connecting Rose
berry. Mo-, and Olarinda, Ia, suspended
on the ground that receipts OF tie branch
were not sufficient 10 pay expenses.
The order was refused, the court declar-
ing that railroads are government institu.
tons, public convayancas aud common
carriers. The right to build q road through
private property was granted on the repre-.
sertation that the road would furnish
transportation for the public. People arc
dependent upon such roads for transporta-
ton. Courts have no light to deprive Bao-
plh OF this transportation on the showing
That the road does not pay expenses. BY
obtaining the Right Of way from the people
they were ent oil from all other similar
! means OF transportation and the court has
no means OF knowing what dHmageto mer-
chants would ensue from tho granting OF
! this order. 1t IS not the duty OF the court
10 ascertain such facts. II the railway
commissioners choose to make such In
speeflon the court will not interfere, but
no such order as this Will be granted.
