Many Applications for LiQ-
uOr Licenses In.
First Hearing Will Be Given
on Monday, 30th Inst.
None to Be Granted Until Result of
License Vote is Known.

Applications for liquor licenses are
coming in very fast now and tomorrow
the license board will advertise the first
batch which will number more than three
hundred. The same conditions as to
officers and partitions obstructing the.view
as were required last year will be insisted
upon this year. 1t is the intention of the
commissioners to get all applications in at
as early date as possible so that they
may be all acted upon before the time OF
the expiration OF the old licenses. In
years gone by it was the practice of some
dealers to delay making their application
for month and in some instances two
months. Thus they We're not obliged to
part with their money for the license fee
"a early as the others and they run their
establishments during the intervening
time between the expiration of the old
and the granting of the new license with
out any legal authority or warrant what
ever. This dilatory practice has been
stopped by the present commission and in
tending applicants are warned to get
their applications in early, or they may
be punished If they at empt TO run their
saloons after the expiration of their old
license without promptly applying for
new one
The hearing on the applications, which
VIII De UrSt duNertlSeu TOMORROW, Will u0
given on Monday, 30th inst, at 4 O'Clock
In the afternoon in the Office OF the hoard
in the city hall. All remonstranis
will be heard then, bnt final action
on the applications will not bo
taken then, for the very potent
reason that two days later the question
OF whether or not licences will be grant
ed will be voted upon by the people.
Should the popular verdict be against IL
censes the board cannot, OF course,
grant any, so the preliminary advertis-
ing and the hearing will have gone for
nothing. III, however. the verdict is ia
vorable to license, the applications will
be taken up and acted upon Immediately.
AS has been the rule with the present
commission since ii was organized tho
number OF retail licenses will be limited
to four hundred. The board is in 10 way
disturbed by the claim recently made by
Lawyer Brennan before the license inves-
tigating committee that the commissioners
have no discretion in the matter, but
must grant all applications that are not
opposed by remonstrances representing
majority of the land within two hundred
feet of the place for which license is
asked. The board has been advised
that IL has right to exercise its discre-
tion in the matter and proposes to do so,
Mr.. Brennan, to the contrary, notwith-
standing. -Four hundred retail Licenses
gives one to about every 800 Inhabitants,
which, in the view of the commission, 10
ample provision for the thirsty element

RIOTING HAS CEASED.
Italians Have Feeling of Great Resent-
ment Against Their General.

ROME, March 13. Out of the terrible
storm of popular anger which swept over
Italy when the news of the defeat of the
army under General Raratieri reached
here, little remains but feeling Of great
resentment against the Italian -eomman-
der. All rioting has ceased and the eser-
visits who fed from the couutry sooner
than go TO Africa at the call of the Govern
ment for the clsss of 1872 have returned
and IL Is not believed any steps Will be
taken to punish them. Negotiations with
King Menelek have been optned, and 1t IS
anticipated that peace will be concluded
before long and the war Office has coun-
termanded the instructions sent TO vari-
Gus points for the hurrying forward OF
reinforcements TO Africa.
The new cabinet is settling down TO
steady work and the financial situation
is brighter than anticipated. Under these
circumstances Italy brC Cathes freer than
for some time past and there Is feeling
of gratitude for those who have aided in
Berlin, during the past few days. In
bringing about this change from blank
despair to great hope IN the future. Tho
conferences which have taken place here
recently between the Marquis di Rudni
the new preimer, and the Duke OF Ser
moneta, their audiences with KING Huma
bert and frequent exchange Of telegraph
ic messages between this city and the Ber-
lin capital have been coincideni with the
meetings in Berlin of the Austrian minis
ter for ioreign affairs, Count Goluchowski
the German foreign minister, Baron
Marschall Won Biebcrstein, the Italian
ambassador TO Germany, Count LAMA
di Busca, and the imperial chancellor,
Prince Hohenlohe, supplemented by aud
fences with Emperor William.
Out OF oil these exchanges OF views, 1t
is believed, has grown much healthier
state Of affairs for all Europe. The Ger
man emperor Is understood to have been
some what, IL not entirely, weaned, from
his longings for closer relations with
Russia and possible alliance of the three
emperors, ana the attitude Of Germany
towards Great Britain, IL is believed, will
undergo n change.
This Is due TO the fact, according to the
report, that Great Britain, when the
situation was outlined 10 her from Berlin,
before the arrival there ef fGeHHtt'elHehew-
ski, promised TO give support for the ltal-
ians I'm their emergency snd TO order up

THE CITY COUNCIL.
Report Submitted of ithe Late Assessor
 and Tax Collector

The city council met last night tn special session. The main business before the meeting was the considera- tion of the report of Expert E. J. Ben nitt and Recorder Jobs upon the ac- counts of the late assessor and tax collector, L. J. Wood. The report was submitted, the main figures being as follows:
 Collections on taxes, etc., for the year.. $26,956.74; from licenses $13,- 315.72; rents, $700; water account, $5935O: dog tax, $336; total collections from all sources for year, S45,9O196.
 Al save $77S.20 had been turned over Ito the treasurer and the receipts for the same were on file Since the deal.lh this amount, which was on hand and ready, has been turned over, and last evening a clean balance sheet was shown.
 When the books were first balanced an apparent discrepancy of $3S429 was discovered, but this was found to have arisen from the fact that it was charged by the assessor to last years account and by the treasurer to the current year. Wood had evidently be- gun the usual work of preparing his yearly report to the common council and the license accounts had been neat ly balanced and aIll accounts had been brought right up to the date of his
