ANNUAL RUCTION
in MARKET HOUSE
Usual Affidavit and Prayer o.
Charles Greer
Usual Denial and Request for Re
ncwal From IVES Flowers Be-
fore Board.
IT WILL BE INVESTIGATED

Act 1, for 1907. of the semi-an-
nual family row in the market house.
was presented in the board of public
works me fting yesterday afternoon.
The dramatis personae of the play
are Mr.. Yves Flowers. butcher at
present renting a stall in the market
house; Charles Greer, who desires
his staM; F. E. Metzger, third prin-
cipal; and several minor parts.
The plot involves a dispute, regu-
larly revived every six months when
the rents are due, as to whether Mr..
Flowers, present renter of a stall is
bona fide renter. Asserting that he
is not and giving affidavits to that
effect Mr.. Charles Greer. another
butcher, prays the board that Mr..
Flowers be ousted and the stall be
rented to himself.
The rule of the board is that a
stall rented tc one party, cannot be
subrented. Mr.. Greer alleges that
Mr.. Flowers is not bona hde renter,
that he has sub-rented his stall to
make money thereby and for that
reason has forfeited his right of pre-
cedence In re.renting the stall. Mr.
Flowers was before the board yester-
day and denied in toto the charges
that he Is not a bona fide renter, and
asserted that all parties who have
had charge of his stall in the last
six months have been employees Of
his. Mr.. Metzger enters the play
from the intimate relations in all
the transaction he has borne to
both principals. It did not appear yes
terday who was the villain. All the
principals and several minor parts
were ordered before the board at its
next weekly meeting, when Act H..
Will be presented. Mr.. Greer accom-
panied his application for the stall
with the rent for the next six months
'sG2.5O, and the board will hold II
subject to developments. All the
market house rents are due and the
rule of the board that the present
renters shall have precedence in
renting again, will hold. Most OF the
renters have been in control so long,
that they have become u sort Of fam
lily, with typical and recurring rows,
which the board has grown tired of
and has determined to sift to the
bottom this time.
