GAS PUMPS AND TANKS
BECOME A PROBLEM
Street Department Has Many
Requests for Permission
to Install Them.

Officials of the Board Of Health to-
day sent letter 10 the directors Of
the Street and Sewer Department call
ing attention to complaints they have
received about conditions in Carpenter
street between Monroe and Adams.
Fourth and Fifth streets, as a result
of not having any sewer there. 1t was
claimed the surface water and drain
age from the houses has made the
place menace 10 public health. The
subject was referred TO the depart
ment's engineer for an estimate OF the
cost and probable revenue from a
sewer In that street.
The question OF gasoline tanks I'M
der the sidewalks and pumps along
the curbs has become serious one
for the board and IL IL thought steps
may be taken soon to have some def
mite and well defined regulations under
which such supply stations are to be
established. Applications are received
every Week for permission to install
such places and the directors have
found the sidewalks about town are
rapidly becomin.( lined with such
places. The directors this morning de
cided TO view personally the sites
where application was made to install
pumps before granting this permission
Edward McAteer. clerk OF the mar
kets, was directed by the board to see
that the law pertaining to the removal
OF awning posts along King street is
strictly enforced. He informed the
board that at some places along this
street the awnings have not been re-
moved and the property owners on
tenants have shown no disposition Il
remove them. Violators OF this new
regulation are now TO be arrested anc
hailed into the City Court.
