a rental of $4,000 year. despite the
fact that the same building was offer
ed to private firms and individuals.
previous to the signing of the lease
with the city, for one-third Of that
amount.
1t is declared that the estate which
owns the building Is not involved in
the lease to the city negotiations, it is
alleged, having been carried on by spe-
cially appointed agents.
Mr.. Wayman. since the investigation
OF the lease began, has, Ii is reported,
been visited by associates of the prin-
cipals Involved in the scandal. urging
him to drop the investigation. To these
he replied that If SUFFICIENT evidence
was unearthed the matter would be
presented to the grand jury, no matter
where it struck.
Investigators examined by States
Attorney Wayman reported late today
that they had discovered ring which
is alleged to control the sidewalk fruit
and flower stands In the down town
districts.
According TO the report. every owner
of these sidewalk stands In required
TO pay a certain sum weekly for police
protection, and all others who desire to
engage in this line OF business inside
the district are compelled to turn ovar
their location to the men who have
made their peace with those In control
of the traffio.
The stands are all operated by
Greeks. many of whom rent stores
with Easements and transact most of
their business on the sidewalk In vto-
lation OF the city ordinances.
The collectors for this privilege are
said to be detective sergeant and n
former convict. WHIP is in favor with
the city hall crowd. The amount coll
