SALOONS IN THE SUBURBS Their Licensing Debated in the
 City Council. MAYOR VANHOOSE ABSENT Alderman Enslen Presided Over the Meeting and Much Talk Was ndulged in and
 Some Business Transacted.

The city council met last night in reg ular session. Present were Acting Mayor Enslen, who is officiating during Mayor VanHooses absence in Washington; AL dermen Ward, Parker, Pearce, West Kei- tig, McCartin, Meade, Mcknight, Jack son, Sims and Gillespie.
 number of visitors were also present, among whom were Attorney Frank s. White and Attorney McCrossln. who ap peared in behalf of several outsl<irt sa loon men. A recent resolution passed the board, it is claimed, without due notice to all the members of the board, by which outskirt saloons were to be confined with in certain prescribed limits After Attor- neys White and McCrossin had addressed the board Alderman Ward offered the following resolution:
 Be ii resolved by the board of mayor and aldermen of Birmingham That the city clerk be instructed to issue licenses twhisky or beer) to any person or per- sons applying for them where such bus mess was carried on during the year 1895, except such places as have been closed up by special petitions
 The resolution prevailed after much discussion and the exercise of consider able parliamentary tactics.
 Alderman Meade thought that final ac- ton would be discourteous to the absent mayor and Alderman Gillespie spoke against it. Aldermen McCartin, West and Kettig spoke in favor of the resolution. holding in substance that an enforcement of the restriction on outskirt saloons is unjust and discriminating in it's opera tion.
 Alderman Meade tried to cut the de- bate short by motion to table the res olution introduced by Alderman Ward and Alderman Jackson gave it his sec und On vote of the council the motion to table was lost and the matter re- opened for discussion. Alderman Giles pie again urged that action be deferred, and speaking in reference to restriction insisted that it was not unjust to anyone and that the city had full legal power to define limits within which the saloon traffic might be conducted.
 '-- Alderman Kettig did not see how the outskirt saloons were objectionable under the Ward resolution, since none could do business that had heretofore been closed by petitions from persons living in the vicinity of them.
 He wanted more conservative action on the part of the board in these matters. He thought that the city needed more life anyway, and that a saloon or two more or less would not hurt He spoke of the convenience to the workingman on the and landlord, and of the Schillinger Brewing company, whose large plant he considered a credit to the city.
 Alderman Sims wanted to delay the adoption of the Ward resolution until the mayor could be present.
 Alderman McCartin said that the former resolution of restriction had been passed at special meeting of the board and that the mayor would not defer ac-

 There was a good audience, the gal leries especially being crowded. It goes without saying that they enjoyed the melodramatic situations and the immi- nent incineration of several objectionable characters The performers all of whom represented denizens of the bowery, seemed rather alien in accent as it were to that famous quarter of Manhattan island. They talked more like western people, Edward Mack, for instance, who played the part of Cesca Bertolian, an italian padrone, having a decided South Dakota accent.
