RAD GIVEN TO THE POLICE COM
MISSION.
An opinion on the rights of "squatters'
in the markets and the jurisdiction Of po-
lice was rendered to the Police Commits
sion by City Solicitor Conrad last night.

duce. Hucksters are provided with a

The ordinance distinctly and expressly
provides that no person or persons shall
erect a stand booth. tent, stall or place
on the sidewalks or street for sale Of any
goods. They are not allowed to sell
cakes bread, foreign fruits on the streets
except the business Is conducted in a
building adjoining the street. Persons
may sell from the cellar of building
however. Persons are not allowed to sell
at the intersection of streets or outside
OF any building unless the product ex
posed for sale is raised by the person whC
occupies the space
In regard to the jurisdiction of the po
lice Mr.. Conrad says the clerk Of th'
market Is the executive officer and 1t 1
his duty to see that all ordinances ar
enforced. He is vested with full au
thority to prevent infractions Of the Law
and to make complaints against the OF
tenders; and he can call to his aid at an.
time the police force of the city.
To-day the violators of the ordinanc
were notified and any failing to compl
with the provisions Of the law will be ar
