DENOUNCED By MAYOR.
OF course many of these places are
eminently respectable. and against these
there is not the slightest ground Of com
plant. They are conducted as hotels,
large or small, as the case may be. and
serve meals TO guests and others and
furnish sleeping apartments In regular
and proper manner
To many, however. there is a most Sc
rious objection. and Mayor Granger
since his night expedition with Captain
Parker OF the detective bureau. has not
hesitatcd TO call the attention of the po-
lice and also the attention OF the alder
men TO "A number Of these unsavory and
disreputable resorts
II has been stated, and on pretty good
authority, that the board of aldermen
will not grant licenses 10 a number OF
these places, even should the police de-
partment so recommend. As many Of the
obnoxious places are well known, being
i'm the central district II will be interest
ing 20 see what attitude the police viii
assume towards them.
OF course, IL is we'll known that great
pressure is already being brought by the
proprietors Of some OF these resorts 10
secure a license. and some of them are
even invoking the aid OF political friends.
SHOULD BE CLOSED Up.
In addition to the list OF places given
above, which have tavern licenses which
expire tomorrow, there are several Chi
nese restaurants which have similar IL
ccnses.
These are; Ching Hing. 45 Aborn
street: Chung Far Low, 13 Market
square: Chung Far Low, 10 Burrill street; f;
Hing a. Wing. 47 Weybosset street Wee
Wah Hing company. % Page street
These places undoubtedly serve meals
and IL is not learned whether there is any
serious complaint against them or not.
and. i'm fact. member OF the city council
said this morning that he understood the
Chinese cndeavorcd 60 conduct their
places as respcctably as possible.
1T IS up to- the board OF aldermen 10
carefully scan every petition for a tavern
license that Is presented. whether rec
commended by the police department or
not. said this same gentleman. ~ know
that several OF the places are disgraceful.
and believe the board WIFI see that they
are closed nm
