FOR A NEW LICENSE.

End of the Fight.

Mr.. l.. A. Lagomarslno has filed
application with City Clerk Henry
Bailey for a new saloon license at
Second and Broadway, and the appli-
cation will be submitted this even
ing to the board of Aldermen. II is
understood that If the general coun-
ell grants the license, Mr.. Lagomar-
sino will be willing to drop the fight
that is in progress between himself
and the city officials, and promise to
"be good" He does not say this, but
his latest action indicates that it is
what he means, as he has gotten the
worst of the argument thus far and
is likely to keep getting it unless
some sort of compromise is made.
Mr.. Lagomarsino, by forfeiting
his other license, loses the SIS he
paid for II, but he may take out an
other one for the remainder of the
first six months for $50 If the boards
will grant 1t. and it is likely that in
view of the possibility of dropping
the fight, and the salutary effect the
first revocation has had. that the
boards will grant him another license,
