ONE WAY THE CITY is AFFECTED.
CONTROLLER FITCH WANTS THE LAW AMENDED
TO PERMIT THE SALE OF LIQUOR IN
MARKET REsTAURANTs

CONTROLLER FITCH WANTS THE LAW AMENDED
TO PERMIT THE SALE OF LIQUOR IN
MARKET RESTAURANTS.
At the meeting OF the Sinking Fund Commission
held In the Mayors office yesterday Controller
Fitch urged the passage OF resolution authorizing
the Corporation Counsel to draft amendment TO
the Ralnes bill. exemptirg the restaurants situated
In the public markets from the restrictions with
which they now are burdened. Mr. Fitch said that
the law as II stands. prohibits the restaurants In
any public buildings from selling liquors OF any
kind at any time and he said that this provision
alone would cost the city $6.6$ year II the bill is
not speedily amended
Two hundred and nifty years ago. he said the
Stadt Herbe-y. the city tavern. was opened. and
since tina, time the right OF these restaurants In
public markets has never been questioned. so far as
Il referred TO their privilege to sell liquors at all
times with meals The markets. being closed
Sundays. he said there was no incentive for them
to attempt evading the Sunday law.
City Chamberlain McCook said that while he was
not opposed 10 the resolution suggested by Mr..
Fitch. yet he felt that the Sinking Fund Commission
would not receive much attention from a Legisa
turc which would pass n bill against the united pro-
tests Of the citizens OF the greatest city OF the
Union
1T seems to me-" said the Chamberlain. that It
would be Inconsistent with the dignity OF our POSI-
lions TO make any such request OF the body that
passed such a revolutionary measure over the pro-
been passed. am against II. and always was. for
| believe that II has robbed Of much OF our
sets and not the least heed paid 10 In the
matter ut all.
II cannot see. therefore. that In picking flaws In
II how we will receive any more consideration than
We did In the first instance. The measure a bad
one. and while I should like to some justice
done us. think we have n very poor show with
such people as now are In Albany and who forced
this thing upon us"
Mr. Fitch explained further that the city. under
the present law only lost the $4,000 yearly but
also the thirds Of the $500 license fee which each
Of the restaurant keepers was willing to pay II the
Law was 80 amended as to allow the market res
taurants to sell liquor.
Alderman Oicott said no not as skeptical as
the Chamberlain regarding the passage Of the
amendment suggested BY the Controller which he
said he In favor Of
Mayor Strong cut off the debate on the subject
by declaring that there were other matters to at
tend to.
After the routine matters had been gone through
Mr. Fitch's motion was again taken UP, and the
Mayor wished to have the matter dropped until
some other day. saying to the Controller: III you
put II to vote to-day shall vote against It,"
Mr. Fitch said the matter was an important one
ana should be settled at once. The vote was put
and the Mayor and City Chamberlain voted against
Fitch and Mr.. Olcott voted for It,
