SALOON LICENSES

MUST MAKE NEW APPLICATIONS
COUNCIL Took Drastic Action In Order
to Get a Chance to Weed Out the
Dlsreputabe saoons-Matter caus.
ed Lively Debate.

Atlanta, Sept. 27.-By unanimous
vote the city council has revoked the
| license Of every saloon in Atlanta un-
| til the first of October, and. until that
time the city is practically under pro-
hibition.
This action was taken on a report
from the police committee, which had
been requested to investigate the sa-
looms and ascertain what places could
| be classed as dives and unfit to en-
gage in the liquor trade. The COM
mittee, after striking out 81 saloons,
decided that such arbitrary action
might be unjust to many saloon men,
and when a conference was held with
| the citizens committee of ten, it was
| decided to recommend to council the
revoking of all saloon licenses for the
| purpose of wedding out the dives.
A fight was made by representatives
OF the whisky dealers, while citizens
| spoke in the interest of the report of
the police committee. The debate be-
came at times very animated, and on
| several occasions the audience indulg-
ed in applause, which was kept up
until the mayor pro tenn. called upon
the city marshal to put stop to it.
Citizens and members of council put
the saloon men on notice that they
had better submit to the saloon pro-
posed, or they would precipitate a
| prohibition election within 80 days
On Oct. 2 there will be an open
meeting Of the police committee, the
| chief of police, Police Commissioner
| Woodslde and four additional members
OF council, when all persons desiring
saloon licenses will have to appear
and show thai they Will run decent
saloons.
All applicants must publish three
itime3 III daily paper their intention
TO make such applications All the
new licenses granted win expire next
June.
J Mayor Woodward made a talk
against ,hesreport OF the police COM
| mittee, saying that he did not be-
| lieve in such a drastic measure He
seemed to indicate that he might use
his veto power, but since the vote of
| council was unanimous he will proba-
bly, give his Endorsement to the reso-
ntion.
The council chamber was packed
with liquor men, and large number
