POLICE GIVE THEM WARNING

Chief of Police George Black, in re-
sponse to many complaints, has taken
up the matter of the violation of the
city ordinance by the mer-
chants and stall-keepers on the
west side Of King street and ON other
streets. In speaking of the matter this
morning, Chief Black said:
II have been receiving complaints
about the merchants having stands on
the sidewalk other than the four feet
from the building line, which the law
entities them to occupy. On Saturday
took Deputy City Solicitor Garrett
along King street with me, and we
found the street, from Ninth down, al
most impossible by reason OF these
stands. Besides taking four feet from
the building line they have taken al
most as many feet from the curb To-
wards the building line. The thorough
fare is very much congested, and the
city ordinance also is being violated.
Deputy City Judge Townsend advised
me to notify the merchants and give
them a chance to avoid prosecution.
Il shall give them until Wednesday
morning, when will prosecute all
persons, not only on King street, by
in any part Of the town who are vio-
lating this ordinance"
Automobiles Cause Alarm

Gus in this city, and are said to be run

Chief has decided to issue an order tc
