ent in a body in the meeting OF the
morning, to protest against having TO
pave their alley. They declared that

asked that these unsanitary condi-
tons be remedied otherwise than by
imposing the cost OF paving on the
residents OF the feighborhood.

nance is passed. persons wanting, to
put up signs will not have TO ask the
council for permission so long as they
can convince the department of pub
lie works that the signs are within
the terms Of the ordinance.

lieve that IL will soon be first in the
production OF gold and copper. II is
rich in minerals as well as In agricul-

II was an old-time Monday morning
on the stock exchange. with commits
sion houses busy executing buying
orders accumulated over Saturday and
banking interests and pool manipula-

cialities in which they are interested.
As a result OF this combined buying

gains varying in figures, up TO about

new high levels for this movement
