re srRwAY ORDINANCE.

The subway ordinance came up in the
First Branch, Immediately after the
formal opening, the document being on
its second reading. DR.. Campbell made
an effort to strike from sec. the clause
giving the Telephone Company the
right to put in pneumatic tubes. A
motion to that effect brought on spir-
tied debate, and ended in the motion
being lost by decisive majority.
In sec. 8, Mr.. Wilson moved to insert
the words without compensation" so
as to make il cad: 1.-The city Of
Wheeling shall have the right to place
on such poles, and within any such I'M
derground system, and to use and oper-
ate all the wires, cables, devices and
apparatus, without compensation, etc.
The amendment was adopted.
Mr.. Wilson next made an amend
ment, stipulating that whenever there
shall be one hundred or more wires upon
any street, the Company shall put in a
conduit for the distance such number
OF one hundred or more wires shall run.
This was adopted.
The Company must accept the ordi-
nance by August 1, 1892.
The measure was then passed, Dr.
Campbell voting no. The Second
Branch cOncurred.

THE JEwELRY AUCTION LICENSE.

Auctioneers licenses were granted to
J. c. Heryey and w. H. Halter; billiard
licenses to w. B. Humes and Z. M.
Stattler, and a whsrfboat license to
Crockard & Booth.
Herman G. Briggs asked to have an
auctioneer's license, and with it was a
petition against it, signed by jewellers,
clothing merchants, cry goods merch-
ants, and large number OF other busi-
ness men.
Mr.. Irwin moved the application be
rejected.
Mr.. Robertson thought there ought to
be some further reason than that con-
tanned in the petition. He asked per-
mission for Capt. Dovener to be heard.
Mr.. O'Leary asked that Mr.. John A.
Howard be heard on behalf Of the pc
titiOners. Permission was granted, and
Mr.. Howard addressed the Branch,
urging that the applicant was not res
ident of Wheeling, and was acting on
behalf OF a firm which began business
without complying with any OF the pro-
visions OF law, and now only applied for a
license because ,he had to. The business
men Of Wheeling did not object to fair
competition, but they did object to the
sort OF thing here attempted The local,
reputable auctioneers were not skillful
enough at selling goods for more than
their value TO suit the new hrm. They
wanted one OF their own.
Capt. Dovener was then invited to re-
ply, and spoke for ten or fifteen min
utes, saying the firm had been assessed
and paid its taxes, to the amount OF
$40. He denied that the firm had vio-
lated the law knowingly, but, on the
contrary, that they had complied with
all the requirements as fast as they had
learned them.
The City Solicitor then addressed the
Branch, explaining the law.
A vote was then taken, by ayes and
nays, on the motion TO reject, and the
license was refused, MessrS. Craig and
Robertson alone voting for it.
