The evening times., 1895-10-05

The excise board has issued notice to
the effect that no applications for trans
fer OF liquor license for the current year
ending October 81 will be received or con-
| Eidered. except the same shall be filed on or
before the 10th instant
The object OF the board is doubtless to re-
duce TO the minimum the rush that is sure
TO come with the opening of the new license
year, and it is considered that for the few
days remaining there is no necessity for
change In proprietorship that cannot as
well be met after the new year begins.
The order ia. however, more far-reachipg
than that, for it prevents the sale of
franchise at the last moment that would
carry with it a property right In the sigma
lures upon which renewal depends.
Transfers of retail liquor licenses were
authorized to-day by the excise board to
two applicants, as follows: Joseph Lane,
No. 9O6 Delaware avenue northeast. and
Henry F. Ash, No. 1851 Twenty-eighth
