GUILTY
UNDER NEW CODE
City Court Holds Show Case
on Sidewalk is Nuisance
Under Law.

After deciding the technical diff
Guilty regarding the proof of the
ordinances of the city in the city
court in favor of the prosecution.
Judge Hammerschmidt entered a
finding of guilty in the case for vio-
lation Of the building code of the
city which had been filed against O.
+. Ludwig and tried on Wednesday
morning.
The motion Of the defense based
on the technical objection To the
completeness of the case of the
prosecution. which was denied by
the court on Saturday, held that as
in other courts of the state il was
necessary 10 prove ordinances in city
courts. Taking into consideration
decisions reported by the attorneys
on both sides, the court found that
since the city court is the creature
of the statute especially created to
interpret the ordinances of the
cities that il must have judicial
knowledge of them and that. there
fore it is not necessary to prove
them.
Sentence was withheld until next
Monday, when il is understood that
the court will be inclined to give a
suspended sentence providing the
defendant is willing TO abate the
nuisance. The placing Of the show
case on the sidewalk just south of
the Grand Trunk tracks on Michi-
gan St, was found by the court TO be
in violation Of very exact statements
in the building code forbidding the
placing OF any distractions on the
streets.
AS is often the case i'm such laws.
it provides against the construction
of any new objections after the pas
sage Of the ordinance and its taking
effect on March /, 1916, but it per-
mits those which are already placed
on the city streets and sidewalks
until Jan. /, 1913. before they must
be removed. It was argued for the
defense that this clause is an injus-
tice and should excuse the violation
of the defendant.

Data has been compiled by them and submitted by MT. Thane to eastern capitalists and they have assured MT. Thane of their support as soon as conditions are such as to warrant the investment of the amount of money for the purpose.
 Such plant can be installed and can compete with the Canadian Mills and pulp plants on an equal basis and beat them out" said MT. Thane this morning. Cheap water power is absolutely necessary in the first place, an adequate supply of raw material in the second place, and lastly a contract between the govern ment and those installing the plant fixing definite price on the raw material.
 'At the present time the best we can do is to secure a contract from the government fixing price for five years, the price to be arbitrated between the government and us ev- cry five years thereafter. How can we sign contracts for finish product when we have no way of telling what our material will cost us?
