of going into the saloon business in that
ward yourself?
'tNo, sir"
'Didn't you talk to Father McTighe
lately about starting saloon?"
"Not seriously"
Inspector Mckelvy was called and testi-
fed that when he was in charge of the South
side district the Thlrty-third ward was the
worst spesk-easy district on that side.
Judge Collier-Were you unable to sup
press them?
Inspector McKelvy-well, as fast as We
would cut them down they would grow up
again.
When James G. McHugh, the other ap-
plicant from the Thirty-third ward, was
called, Mr.. Bailey and MI. Hofstot did not
testify.
Only Breathing Spot OF the Day.
When the Thirty-fourth ward was taken
up, the applicants got along easier. None
of the applicants were detained
Joseph Pauley and Robert Smith were
the applicants from the Thirty-ffth ward.
There was quite an opposition to Pauley.
Two circumstances, signed by over 100
people, and Rev. W. b. Rodenbaugh ap-
peared against him.
When Michael Foley was called, Attorney
Bremen gave a sample OF some OF the
questions asked by counsel at times. Pat
Foley, the politician, was character wit
ness for the applicant.
Mr.. Brennen-You are a brother of the
applicant?
Mr.. P. Foley-Yes, sir.
"How long have you known him?"
Laughter
In almost the next breath Mr.. Bremen
asked Mr.. Foley if his brother was man
of good moral character.
John Kalb is new applicant at 1S4 Steu-
ben street. There Is no licensed house on
that street at present Mr. j. P. Bierhel-
Ter, who formerly had saloon opposite No.
10 engine house, was q witness He has
drygoods store on the street now, and he
gave the novel reason as q necessity for q
saloon there that he loses custom by not
having one on the street. Men working at
the mills sometimes have household errands
to perform on the way home, but as they
nearly always stop at a saloon after work,
he loses custom. DR.. Neiley, who is gener-
orally known as temperance man, also
favored the applicant.
Men Who Struck 1t Easy.
