THE H1TcH1Na ORDINANCE
The Crusade for Clean Streets and tho
Police Commissioners

The regular session Of the board OF
police commissioners TODAY promises to
be interesting. The Merchants and
Manufacturers association will present
the matter of the proper enforcement Of
the ordinance against leaving horses
hitched on the public streets for more
than thirty minutes at time. This ef-
fort to have the ordinance properly en-
forced Is in line with the associations
efforts to secure clean streets and 1t will
be strongly presented. The same or
gandzation will point to the fact that the
ordinance against expectorating OH the
sidewalk be enforced, the crusade for
clean streets also prompting them in
this matter.
The matter Of the appointment Of the
ten additional policemen provided, for In
the ordinance passed by the city council
yesterday will probably come up, al
though final action is not expected until
next weeks meeting. The men who will
be appointed will be those who were
made special officers several months ago.
The board will finally dispose Of the
matter of the applications for saloon IL
censes and transfers Of licenses at such
places at which small back rooms are
made part Of saloon premises. A IL
cense will probably be issued to one Of
the applicants for that necessary docu-
ment who desires to succeed the present
owner Of the 400" saloon. Unless such
license is granted that hitherto notorious
place will SOON have to close its doors,
as the revocation of the license will 60

Importance which came up for consider

Of minor concern to the taxpayers.
The question Of how to secure clean

AFTERNOON SESSION
Protests Against the Resewering OF
Spring Street Accepted

The hearing Of the protests against
the proposed construction of a new
sewer along Spring street was the first
order of business at the afternoon ses-
sion. A number Of property owners in
terested in the matter were given an au-
dience. Charles Brodie first addressed
the council and at his request the city
engineer produced the profile map Of the
present sewer. Mr.. Brodie pointed out
from this the reasons why in his opinion
the new sewer was not necessary. Louis
Roeder,' DR.. Wills, Abbot Kinney and
others spoke against the proposed sewer,
the hearing of the protests consuming
nearly. an hour. At it's conclusion Mr..
Ashman moved that the protest be sus-
tained and that the proceedings in that
direction be abandoned This action will,
1t is thought result in the resurfacing Of
Spring street.
