HEAVY REMONSTRANCE
 AGAINST OIL STORAGE
Neighbors of L. B. Silliman Pay $ Per
 SLIGO More for Insurance.

The aldermanic ordinance committee is considering whether it should per init l.. B. Silliman to carry a stock of ises on Water street, while some 9 of his neighbors continue to pay in creased insurance, rates. The neigh bors are:
 The Cudahy Packing Co.,, J. H. Coughlin, J. Nussenfeld, H. Platt & Co, Turney Bros, Miner. Reed & Garrette, The Hubbell & Wade Co.,. Eli L.. Lesser, s. Hinchberg, Fred H.

Samuel Newman, w. M. Ter ry, John H. Daskam.
 These petitoned the council at it's last meeting to reduce the number of barrels to be carried to 30. Judge A. B. Beers, who appeared for MT. Silliman, said his client had been in business at the same stand for g years, and there had been no fires in all that time. He said if the permit was re- voked it would mean that MT. Silli- man would be obliged to go out of business.
 Chief Mooney said that he believed that MT. Sillmau's business should be located on the outskirts of the city as the storage of oil in large quantities in the center of the city, is dangerous. particularly, as in the case of the Sil- liman plant, where the rear is inac- cessible to fire apparatus.
 Attorney James A. Marr who ap- peared for the remonstrants. could not see why the city should continue the 300 barrel permit when the other prop erty owners were obliged to pay an

The work which has been done at St Johns John $

The petition then points out that many OF the
congregation Of ST. Johns live where they cannot
easily be reached from St Luke's, and says 1t Is
a physical impossibility TO carry on the Work OF
both in ST Luke's Chapel
In to Bishop Greer's reported statement
that most Of the communicates Of st Johns hao
either dead moved away and none had taken
their places the petitioners invite the Bishop to
visit the chapel and count the communicates. IL
he will do this. they say, he will see that they
are not dead, but alive and of number at least
entitled to consideration"
Since the refusal of the vestry TO reconsider It's
decision the members of ST. Johns have written
again 10 the corporation asking that the clergy at
81. Johns be transferred to St. Isukes. and that
in this way the people Of St. Johns be induced to
attend ST. Lukes.

a seven-story freproof warehouse the st. John s

Cammann said to a Tribune reporter:
1T is absolutely untrue that such plans have
been made will be made, far as l know
