License.
MORE PENDING

Although at the September meet
ing of the Excise Board Theodore
LenchlsIl was refused q transterance
OF hls license from els Charles street
10 1873 Grant street, the same bogrd
granted the same request by a vote
of three to one last night. A license
was granted to Harry Meyer for a
hotel at 278 Madison avenue, where
new building is being erected for
that purpose. Commissioner Hender-
son spoke in favor of granting the
license. He said that the hotel
would be conducted separately from
the saloon, and that he had every
assurance that it would be conduct
ed in such a way that it would be
credit to Perth Amboy. Three trans
fers held over from the last meeting
and six new ones, and fifteen renew
ais were approved without a dissent
ing vote of the four members pres
ent. The consideration of four new
applications, two of which were held
over from last month, were adjourn
ed until December 10.
Last September when Lenchisks
wanted to transfer his license to
Grant street it was confronted with
such a big protest from the manu-
featuring plants in the vicinity and
also residents near there, that the
request was denied. Last night there
was a larger petition for the grant
ing of the transfer than the petition
filed against it.
George Wustefeld appeared for
the petitioners against the transfer
of the license, saying that most of
Ia, "a Il al IN,
Grant street, that it would be an i'm
position on the residents Of that sec
ton. There is enoggh disorder in
that vicinity already. he declared.
and a saloon would be as a torch
under barrel OF gunpowder. The
manufacturers point out that the
employees viii patronize the drinking
place to the detrimen+ OF their use
fulness. 1t is thought that many OF
the employees will visit the. saloon
during lunch hour. and be SO fnc1
pacfated that they wall not be able

James S. Wight appeared for the
| petitioners wanting the license and
appealed to the board on the ground
that a large petition had been signed
for the saloon in Grant street, and
that it would be distributing the
drinking places more judiciously to
remove the place from Charles to
Grant street.
