how much rent should be charged the

and he ends by saying that Josie
Trip, a negro woman, should move
of of Post street.
That part of the republican plat
form which says the cribs should be
removed from the public streets and
the public eye" is rigidly carried ont,
and the mayor orders that wings ex-
tending out from the building about
five feet be placed, thus shutting of
the view from Stevens and Howard
streets"
The mayors order is silent on that
positive pledge and plank in the re-
publican platform which calls for the
absolute adjustment of boxes in sa-
looms. Not word is said either
about enforcing the laws regarding
soliciting" in variety theaters..
The landladies Of the burnt dis

increase in fines would have, said to-

MRS. Mcclure SUES
REVIEW FOR $4,000

Against Mrs. Mcclure Of the Calispel
Valley-Arrested While Milking"
Leader of a gang Of burglars operat-
ing in Tacoma" 1.-The burglar iden-
titled her, 1t is said. as the woman
from whom he formerly took orders
in the art Of burglary"
Such articles appeared in the daily
Spokesman-Review and in the twice.
a-week publication in the closing
months of 1901, according to the
plaintiff, who AYERS that the defend
ant in publishing such matter intend
ed and did mean the plaintiff. where
as such statements are utterly with
out foundation. The allegations Of
the complaint are to the effect that
the defendant stated that Mrs. Nc
Clure had assumed for a time her
old stage name, was queen over a
class of men and that "a series Of
burglaries. so well manipulated that
detection was found impossible, was
the result"
The complaint in the case has not
been filed. but has been served on
the defendant. the first paper to go
on record being the demurrer Of the
defendant to the effect that the COM
plant does not state facts sufficient
to constitute cause for action.
