In the city, Mr.. Miner made one Of the
best speeches that have been made in the
Council Chamber for many day. 1t
was a powerful effort. and although it
was the cause of laughter and jests from
some OF the members at their desks. Mr..
Miner stuck to his task and made a SPLEEN
aid fight for what he believed to be best
Tor the fair name of Richmond.
The vote was 10 to is against the pas
sage Of the measure. AS each of the ten
members voted for the proposition his
AYE" was met with laugh that re-
sounded from all parts OF the room.
The proposed ordinance, in part, is as

He said that the proposition was one y,

that 1t was not a subject LOT Jes'' 90
some of the members seemed 10 ne u's
noscd 10 look upon it. He declared liiat
tho assertions that the police of the city
had such places under control. rem,nueo
him of the other declaration that tNere
was no gambling in the city.
Mr. Miner claimed that 1t was an out-
rage that the responsibility Tor these
places had not been placed on some one
He admitted that the proposed ordlnai Il,
would not rid the city CT houses OF III
fame. but that it would help the resiuei t

they could not under existing laws.
He closed by pleading with the Coun-
ciI 10 mass the ordinance in the fair name
of virtue.
The Committee Defended.
Mr.. Davis Bottoms, a member of the
committee, justified the action of the
committee by saying that the proposed
ordinance would not remedy the evil.
but that it would in effect be placing Ii
cense on it. He claimed that the ordi-
nance had been given due consideration

assured by the Chief-of-Police that all
such resorts in the city were known to
the police and that the residents Of such
places were law abiding" and that when
they made themselves too conspicuous
they were ordered to desist on threat of
being arrested He argued that the re-
sorts would be kept in the background OF
Broad street, but if the ordinance was
adopted it would scatter them all over

In replying, Mr.. Miner said there could
be no change under present laws, because
it had not been SO long since that cap
tain of the police was in the Police Court

arrested on complaint of residents Of the
vicinity.
Defended by Police.
'.What can we hope for, he asked,
when a police official appears as de-
| PENDANT for persons Of i'll repute, when
respectable persons appear against them

was surprised to know that the commit
