MR.. DOBBINs TALKS.
Mr. William ]. Dobbins was seen last
nig..t in regard to the statement to tEe
effect that he. has violated his build
ing permit in the erection of his new
hotel at Seventh and Hull streets. He had
not been apprised of any failure on his
part to fulfil the permit by any of the
members of the City Assembly or Board
of Aldermen He said that they could
stop the work on the building if they
desired to do so. but he did not think
that they have sufficient cause for so do
ing. He said that the building conforms
to the lines made by the City Engineer,
and that there cannot be a violation OF
the permit so far as the streets are con-
cerned, for he has kept within the bounds
without encroaching on ground that does
not belong to him. Mr.. Dobbins is per-
fectly willing for those who have found
fault with the building to visit the site.
While there is some woodwork in the
structure, it viii be covered over with
sheet-iron and steel. so as to make q
fire less likely to occur there.

Complaint has been made by the street

numerous trivial accidents for which
they have been held responsible Several
employees of both the Hull and Perry
street lines have been relieved from duty
temporarily within the last few weeks
on account of accidents which they claim
they could not have averted. The con-

and run against the cars before they can
be stopped. Whether the accident is dis
astrous or not the men in charge of the
cars are relieved from duty to get up in
formation regarding It. The information
