was unanimously adopted. On motion
OF George Cameron. Jr.. chairman OF

ton was postponed until tomorrow
night.
In his message to the Council. Mayor
jones returned the license tax ordi-
nance approved. except tho section fix
ing amount of taxes on billiard and
pool-rooms. eating houses where drinks
are served. regular saloons and on

AS recently reported, the Mayor
str ongly advocates increased taxes on
pool-rooms and saloons and smaller tax
on peddlers. whose license was raised
by the new ordinance rom $50 10 $500.
Kills All the Ordinances.
The Mayors message very cmphati-
cnlly disapproved OF pool-rooms as the
worst kind OF gambling places. and
characterized tho sl25 city license tax
on liquor dealers as entirely inadequate
and the $500 pcddler's tax az unjustly
prohibitive. The City Attorney rem
dered the opinion that tho veto of 9our
sections vetoed the whole ordinance;
but as all other sections are approved,
the substance of the situation Is the
question of raising the tax on liquor
dealers and lowering that on peddlers.
