As a result of these researches. cases
were made by Deputy Marshal Dayton
against Herman Winter. both for the

and Hall streets. W. q. Cooper. on Whita-

Broad street. In several instances these
parties have allowed their licenses to run
out failed to renew them at the proper
time. In some instances it was due. OF
course, TO carelessness and neglect, while
with some the violation of the law has
been only technical The parties were
all taken before United States Commits

OF them for trial at the November term
