SIDEWALK SNO "
CAN MOVE ITSELF
That's the View of People Who
Pay No Attention TO City
Ordinance.

Not only is It the duty OF house
holdcrs TO remove snow from In front
OF their premises, but tho CITY Code OF
1910 makes it also tho duty OF the
owner or agent of vacant property to
make s!miIar arrangements for tho
convenience of the public. melting snow
on the thoroughfarc being held to ha
4 common nuisance. Section IS of
chapter %, Richmond City Code OF
1910, concerning various nuisances.
reads:
Tic tenant, occupant. and, in case
there shall DO no tenant. the owner or
any person having the charge of any
building or lot OF land bordering on any
street. lane, court. square or public
place within tho city. where there Is
any paved footway or sidewalk. shall.
after the ccRsing to fall of any snow,
IL In the daytime. within six hours, and
ii in the nighttime before noon of the
following day. cause the same to be re-
moved thercfrom; and In default there
OF. shall forfeit and pay n sum not
less than two dollars nor moro than ten
dollars: and for each and every hour
thereafter tint .hc snow shall remain
on such footway or sidewalk, such
party go in default shall forfeit and
pay not less than ono nor moro than
ten dollars
There is no record OF any one having
been fined under this ordinance In
years. such cases as have been re-
ported to the Police Court have boon
dismissed By Police Justice Crutch-
field. or tho lines RENTED, and in the
past two or three winters the Police
Department has contented Itself by
sending out officers on the second day
after any snowfall 20 notify owners
or tenants that 1t was their duty 10
have snow removed.
The ordinance. however. docs not -c
GiI.rc this usc-to-housc notice that
has hcen the custom followed hy the
police.
Some years ago question was raised
rs TO the constitutioRal!ty OF the orji-
nance. but mo formal test case was
made out. II was commended. however,
that since the sidewalk Is public prop
crty and not owned or controlled by
the ahutting owner or tenant, h: could
not be compelled to keep 1t IN order.
Since Sunday PROBABLY would not
count IN the enforcement OF such
ordinance and since practically all OF
YESTERDAY there was 4 fin. spit OF snow
falling. it might be commended that no
one is In violation OF the city o-d!-
nance until noon to-day, ana only then
il there Is no further snowfall this
morning.
Already. however. there have been
many inquiries to flnd why the Police
Department has made no effort In re-
cent years to enforce the city ord!-
nance on tn, subject Of snow removal.

SEAL STATEMENT

Story About Row in Gould
Family.

Based on a statement Issued in Now

agent. who is said to DO now in the
employ OF Frank ]. Gould, tho New
York Herald printed a story on its hrst
page yesterday to the effect that
Frank Gould hus declared war on 9TH
er members of his family. and that this
war Will be fought out In Wall Street.
1t is mado 10 appear that Mr. Gould
has turned against membcrs OF his
family on account OF their refusal to
pay proper attention socially TO his
wife.
Having transferred some OF his pub
licity activities to New York, Mr.. Seal
ia said to have issued in that city II
statement of earnings of the Inter
national and Great Northern Railroad
with tho added announcement:
The International and Great North
crn Is not Il Gould property. II is own
ed and controlled by Frank j. Could
George J. Could was formerly presi-
dent OF this road. but In the recent re-
organization his brother ousted him
and now prcsides over the meetings
Of the board.
Frank j. Gould's latest move" said
the Herald. "has been TO open n pub
lIcity campaign in tho Wall street dis
tr!ct, having engaged the services OF
w. l.. Seal, OF llichinund. a publicity
agent at l4l broadway. In tho fur
thernncc of his plans, and is now OPP
posing his brother, George. III the Wa

The Seal statement that the iEicr-

seized upon AS direct evidence OF the
family break. Reference was also made
to the effort to elect II. Lancaster Wal
