BAD NEWS FOR MERCHANTS.
Showcases Mustn't Encroach More
Than IS Inches Over Lot Line.

All sidewalk showcases within the
halfmile circle must be removed II
they are more than 10 inches over the
lot line.
This is the report which the council
committee on streets has decided ~
submit in the council meeting Tuesday
evening. This action, If approved by
the council. will affect great many
business firms. OF course. cases
which now encroach more than 10
inches may be cut down to accord
with the new regulation.
The fight over granting a permit to
Heyn's Bazaar for sidewalk showcases,
which began in the council last week,
was continued before the streets COM
mittee Monday morning. Aid. Owen
wanted the permit granted temporar-
lily, pending action affecting all down
town stores. Then the committee
voted to report in favor OF establish
ing the new limit for all.
Permits for such showcases are
given by the council, with the express
provision that they may be revoked.
and this action may, therefore, be FOL
lowed up Immediately.
The committee also decided that all
areas raised above the sidewalk and
other changes of sidewalk grade must
be done way with at once. There are
great many OF these raised plat
forms in the downtown district.

& Loan Case, Monday, that he would
render a decision on the question OF
court Jurisdiction this week This
question embraces the allegations OF
fraud in the commencement of the
suit. and In the receivership made by
stockholders last year. Whatever the
decision. it Is likely that the beaten
side will appeal to the circuit court
of appeals in Cincinnati.
Attorney Paul B. Moody introduced
q motion in this case TO stay all pro-
ceedings for time. This was argued
against by DeForest Paine. attorney
for the receiver, who argued that
Moodys client, Henry A. Cleland, had
but a small interest in the matter.
Moody replied holly that the proceed
ing was brought on behalf of major
ity OF the stockholders in the COM
pany and that even a small stock
holder had rights In court. Both the
complainant and the defendant in the
suit had abandoned the case, he as
serted, and II stockholders were
barred from Directing, only the re-
ceiver and his attorney would have
