 Force Nomination of At torney Steiber on Voters.

There is plenty of trouble brewing in the First district over the Republi- can nomination for Alderman. The strongest kind1of. pressure has been brought to bear on Attorney Earl E. Garlick to withdraw from the race, but he has announced that he intends to stick until the finish

 Joseph H. Stagg of 151 West avenue, has been mentioned for the nomina- ton recently. It is said that the ma chine has groomed him with the in tention of drawing support from Gar lick.

 In Spruce Street

Midnight noises that prevent Spruce shtreet residents from sleeping played an important part in the remonstrance against the application of John Patz ifor the transfer of liquor license from Pine street to Spruce street. The trountry commissioners held d hearing Ion the application this morning and large delegations were present. Mrs. Louis Wargo, who owns two kfamily house. in Spruce street, says the finale residents in her neighborhood lwork hard all day and they can't get ,nleep at night because the patrons of tnearby saloons make the night hideous with tAeir cries
 Mrs Stephen Toltese of 283 Spruce tstreet. said there are four saloons in ' nothing but "hollering. singing and fighting. Attorney J. B. Klein, rep resenting the applicant, asked. if there wasn't coffee house on the street
 that kept open all night. "It doesn't t
 keep open all night" replied the wit mes. "onIy until one or two in the
 morning."
 Another remonstrant was the Rev. Stephen Neuriher, pastor of St. Ste
 phen's Catholic church. He thought the proposed location is too near his ;church. Attorney Lawrence s. Fin klestone, who is agent for property in the neighborhood, also appeared as a
 femonstrant. He declared another ea-
 loon would decrease property values
 H. J. Buechler, who owns property
 dn the neighborhood, appeared in favor of the applicant. and there were ten
 others who favored another saloon.
 The remonstrants numbered ten. Jo-
 seph Ratzenberger, one of those in fa- vor, was shown remonstrance his wife had signed. He appeared sur
 Krised that his wife should have held a different opinion in the matter
 My wife had no business to sign r1t," he declared. That ain't a lady's businesss; it's a mans business" / The commissioners reserved decision
 on the application.
