KING STREET AWNINGS
AND POSTS MUST GO
Cellar Doors and Protruding
Steps Also viii Have to be
Removed.

Property owners on King street at
the corners of Third. Fourth and
Fifth streets, must remove their metal
and canvas curb awnings immediate
ly or have them removed by tho city
at the owners expense. the Street and
Sewer Commissioners ruled this morn
ing at their meeting in City Hall.
The occupants of places of buSi-
ness on these corners have been re-
peatedly ordered to remove the often
eive awnings but have failed to do
so,
The Commissioners nlco recommend
ed that In the future. on market days
automobiles park on King street at an
angle OF 45 degrees against the curb
ing TO aid the police in the regulation
OF traffic and 10 expedite the depart
ure of farmers who leave the markets
early.
At the present time the farmers and
other persons park their automobiles
and wagons along the curb in all po-
sitions. making II virtually impossible
TO avoid A traffic jam. Tho new method
of parking with the rear of the auto
against the curb at the given angle
will prove an advantage to all con-
ccrned, the commissioners believe.
Another violation OF the law by more
than fifty persons on King street was
brought TO the attention OF the COM
nflssionere with the result that buei-
ness men op this street between Front
and Ninth streets will be ordered TO
remove their steps and cellar doors

UHconfirmed <riimors, current for the
past few days in Augusta declare that
Hon. Guy p. Gannett is slated to sue
coed Will Hays as Postmaster Gener-
al. A report from Washington re-
ceived last night said that the White
House claims to know nothing re-
garding the matter. Mr.. Gannett is
now in Florida and it was found i'm
possible to get a confirmation or de-
NAL from him last night.
According to this rumor the choice
of Mr.. Gannett will be due to the in
fiuence Of Senator Hale of Maine.
Senator Hale is close to the Presi-

Mr.. Gannett are intimate friends, and
say friends of both men, it would
not be surprising were the Senator to
recommend Mr.. Gannett for the place
