for License at Union
Station Held Up.

Members of the Anti-Saloon League are
taking an active interest in the fight that
is being made against the application for
license to dispense intoxicants in the
Union station. The opposition declares
that the signature of G. w. Martin, su-
perintendent of the Washington Terminal
Company, was not property authenticated.
Attorney Shoemaker, representing the
Anti-Saloon Leagues argues that the sig
nature should be authorized by the MEM
bers of the board of directors of the COM
pany or that the signature should be ac-
companied by the seal Of the company.

nature as 1t appears upon the application
is not sufficient, and the application is
being held up in order to give the appli-
cant an opportunity to make the neces-
sary correction.
A member of the excise board told a

board was prepared to act upon the ap-
plication as soon as the question Of the
signature Is settled.
