Importers are now looking forward to the entries of the new Italian garlic which are expected about the end of June Long before that time the market here will be stripped of the product When the Italian product does arrive, it is not likely to last long as the demand will be unusually keen

In the latter '7Os he started in the saloon business on the lower East Side. His saloon soon became famous as the council room of the most powerful politicians of that sec tion of the city Garley was a man of great physical strength and much of his popularity was due to the way he handled his fists when those were weapons of political importance He was keen witted too When Roscoe Conklng was conducting the investi gation into the charges that the mem. bers of the Doodle Board" had re. ceiyed S2O,OOO apiece for their votes in favor of a certain public franchise, Garley occupied the witness stand for more than three hours and came away with reputation for the shrewdness with which he had fenced with Inc brilliant lawyer.
