Cutting Out Of One
Saloon May Put 1t
Up To the Mayor
SALOON DISTRICT
ORDINANCE HANGS

Members of the board Of city commits
sioncrs are far from being of one opn-
ION in the matter Of where the bounda
ries of the proposed saloon district should
be fixed. This fact prevented the pas
sage at special meeting Of the council
yesterday afternoon Of an amendment TO
the ordinance under the emergency clause
and necessitated the postponement of the
final enactment of the ordinance TO reg
ular meeting.
The line of cleavage among the com
missioners appeared when, in reading
Of the proposed amended ordinance by
Commissioner RentfrQ. the question again
arose whether or not any saloon north
of Twelfth and south of Washington
streets should be allowed in the district.
Commissioner Rentfro and Commissioner
More took a determined stand against
the inclusion of the Birds saloon, corner
of Twelfth and Levee streets, in the dis
trict Commissioner Garcia stated that
he will not vote for an ordinance that
discriminates he claimed. against the
Birds saloon and Commissioner Puteg-
nat expressed firmly. without stating
which way he would finally vote. his be-
lief that the line should include the Birds
saloon.
For some minutes heated discussion
Of this point occupied the meeting. II was
finally decided that it would be useless
10 attempt to adopt an emergency amend
ment to the ordinance and that the only
hope for it, passage would be through q
ma aiority vote at a regular meeting. Mr..
More stated that ls would vote to include
the Birds saloon in the district il al lots
in that half block also he included
Commissioner Rentfro stated that there
are now thirty-seven saloons in operation
in Brownsville. Of which only fourteen
will be left within the legalizcd district.
The district according 70 the draft Of
fercd Yesterday has it, most western linn
il in the center Of the alley between Ievee
and Elizabeth streets from Thirteenth 10
Twelfth streets. its most northern limit in
the center Of Tenth street from Washing
ton 10 Jackson street: its most eastern
limit in the center Of Harrison street from
Eleventh 20 Fifteenth streets and its most
southern limit in the center of Fifteenth
street from Harrison 10 Jackson street.
The proposed saloon area j. irregular
in form. the rectancle bounded bv the
streets and alleys named being cui into
ai several places 90 that the boundary
extends inward to the corner Of Twelfth
and WASHINGTON streets. tn the corner of
Eleventh and Jackson streets and to the
