BAMBERGER SHED
MUST CONE down,
ORDER OF COURT
ce-Chancellor Stevens Says
Ordinance Doesn't Apply to
Cellar Door,"

By a ruling given by Vice-Chancellor
Stevens, and received today by City
Counsel James R. Nugent, Bamberger
& Co. will be forced to remove the
wooden enclosure IN the Halsey street
side of their building, as ordered by
Superintendent of Works Charles M.
Shipman. When Shipman. in his cru
SADIE against sidewalk distractions. or
dered the Bamberger concern to re-
move the shed, the company protested,
claiming hat under section 554 of the
city ordinances it could maintain the
shed. Their claim was that the shed
is a cellar door ard therefore permits
sible under the law.
The company admitted, however, that
the city building department was un-
able to authorize the building of the
shed. Vice-Chancellor Stevens holds
that inasmuch as the so-called cellar
door is seven feet high, four and a
half feet in width and twenty-eight feet
long, thus projecting over the building
lines, the ordinance does not apply.
The opinion explained in detail thai
because the structure is rooted and
contains windows it could not by any
possibility be construed to be a cellar
door.
1T is admitted says the opinion
that the superintendent of building;
could not give permission to violate
the ordinance, ne it is also admitted
that when application was made to the
Board of Works that body did not pass
upon It,"
The shed was erected by h Bam-
berger concern to serve as protection
for an elevator used to bring up stock
from the basement to the sidewalk fol
shipping purposes.

oppression and of natural and forced
abstemiousness have raised the Rus
