INDED DOWN BY THE JUDGES.
TIE GRIND FOR 1890 NEARLY OVER.

The retail liquor licenses in the boroughs
were handed down by Judges Ewing and
Magee at 1:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon.
The number is more than doubled over the
past year, and there are many more than
were granted in 1888. In the first year Of
the Brooks law, Judges Ewing and White
issued 81, last year 80 were given out, and
this year, with Verona held over, there are
50.
Braddock increases its saloons from to 16
Homestead from to IS. McKeesport from
IL to 20, Sharpsburg from to 8. and Char
tiers from to s. There will be no excuse
for illegal selling in the boroughs during the
coming year Green Tree isgranted license
for the first time under the Brooks law, and
old Mr.. Streitenberger will there smile his
paternal smile on the thirsty traveller. The
Third ward OF Braddock and the Second and
Third wards of McKeesport were entirely
drv last year, but this year they are pro-
vided for. Only in Beltzhoover and Oak
mont have licenses been refused. In Knox
vile, Mansfield and West Liberty no appli-
cant was refused.
Statement From the Court.
Immediately after the reconvening of
court after dinner, Judge Ewing handed to
the clerk manuscript, saving: "a list of
the persons granted retail licenses in the
boroughs; also list of those refused licenses.
The borough of Verona is held over to deter
mine the question of law; in two cases. that is.
Some of the Verona applications have been de-
termined regardless of the question of law. As
rule, the number of applicants granted IL
cense is limited. / wish some of the applicants
were here. In several cases persons now having
license have been refused. wish they had been
here. In some cases the reasons for refusal
are given. because the persons refused have
better accommodations than some who are
granted; but where there have been repeated
violations of the law we feel in duty bound,
looking to the future well as to the past, to
refuse them license. We would like tito be un-
ders;ood that. where man has fair accommo-
dations and keeps his house well during the
year. he is pretty of license; and that, II he
don't, he is pretty sure to be refused"
The following are the licenses granted and
refused in the several boroughs; those licensed
during the past year being marked py an
