{. n. BEER DEF|ES
FIRE COMMISSION
.ERECTS SMITHY WHEN BOARD
DENIES PERMIT
Compelled to Stop Work He Now
Threatens to Test Validity of
Ordinance in the
Courts

E. N. Beer a blacksmith, has defied
the fire commissioners, and yesterday
as a result Fire Chief Walter Lips
filed a complaint at police headquar-
ters.
The trouble grows out of the action
of Beer in erecting a blacksmith shop
at 122 South Chicago street after the
board had denied him a permit.
Beer has similar and older estab-
lishment few feet away. He was
anxious to erect a new and larger
plant and it is claimed concluded that
the easiest way to avoid a protest was
to ask permission of the board without
going into details. He consulted Sec
retary Charles McKeag, but withheld
some of the facts, it is claimed. He
managed to get building permit from
Building Inspector j. j. Backus.
Neighbors commenced to telephone
protests. Mr.. Backus sent an inspector
and the fire board also sent a repre-
sentative, both of whom ordered work
on the structure stopped.
Beer then protested that he intended
to tear down the old structure, as the
new one is completed, but the commits
sioners would not yield.
He has retained counsel and, 1t is
said. will attack the validity of the or
dinance requiring permission from the
fire board when 1t Is proposed to erect
new blacksmith shops.
The establishment Is near the old
mower house on First street, where IL
is planned to condemn portion OF
the street in order to make straight
thoroughfare. The street now Jogs at
that point.

that on the 18th of July when you were
