MUST BE DISCONTINUED.
Unlawful Occupancy of Sidewalk
Adjacent to Riggs Market.


Complaints have been made to the Dis
trict Commissioners by property owners
and residents on P and 18th streets, ada
cent to the Riggs Market, of the occupancy
of the sidewalks by country people and
others who have been in the habit of sell
ing their products there. AS result of
these complaints, Commissioner Wight for
warded communication to the police lieu
tenant in charge of the precinct in which
the market is located, inquiring why such
occupancy has been permitted.
No reply has been received by Mr.. Wight
to his inquiry from Lieut.. Heffner, in
charge of the precinct, but this morning he
was called upon by a number of the dealers
interested. Th represented to Mr.. Wight
that to prohibit them from continuing their
occupancy of the sidewalks for the eX-
posure and sale of their products would be
the infhction upon them of great hard
ship, as they are, as rule, peOple of very
limited means and resources, and wholly
dependent for a livelihood upon the little
business they have been enabled to carry
on there. Therefore, they asked that the
police be instructed to allow them to re-
main undiSturbed.
Mr.. Wight while expressing great sym
pathy with them, explained that the law
placing the sidewalks in the control of the
Commissioners expressly provides that
public space shall not be occupied for pri-
vate purposes. He referred to the COM
missioners in the matter, the complainants
charging that the sidewalks are congested
and rendered unsghtly, and that the bust
ness of the regular dealers is interfered
with. While he appreciated the fact that
the exclusion of the people from the privi-
ege referred to would amount to a great
hardship, so far as they are concerned, and
that their absence would be regretted by
those who have been in the habit of patron
izing them, yet Mr.. Wight expressed the
opinion that their occupancy of the side
walks is not authorized by law, and that
the Commissioners cannot, therefore, per-
nit its continuance. In this connection, he
said, he regretted that in such cases the
Commissioners are not authorized to act in
such a manner as would afford relief to
those affected by the order to vacate.
This order, 1t is understood, will only APP
ply to those who occupy the sidewalks not
imme diately in front of the market Side
walk space in front of the market is al
lowed to be occupied under the Commits
sioners' construction of the law that such
occupancy amounts to an extension of the
business of the market, a rule adopted in
other like cases
