when such buildings are erected on
an alley less than thirty feet wide
not run through the square and is not
supplied with sewer, water, gas or
electric lights The language is in
the conductive and Mr.. Stephens ad-
vice to the Commissioners was that
but few alleys are affected by the
Started In May.
Injunction proceedings were insti-
tuted in May by Clarence +. Norment,
representing his fathers estate and
by the Lockwood heirs, who also own
alley houses. They asked injunctions
to prevent the Commissioners begin
ming threatened prosecutions against
them unless they evicted their ten
ants.
not deal with the question or the
validity of the enactment. but the in
junction Is granted because the prop
critics owned by the Norment and
Lockwood estates do not front on
alleys meeting the qualifications set
out in the act.
The memorandum opinion of the
court in the Norment case reads:
"The bill alleges that the Commits
sioners are about to take steps to in
augurate proceedings against the pam
tiff unless the plaintiff evicts all ten
ants now located upon the premises de-
scribed in the bill. The bill alleges
that these properties front upon alleys
which are included in the provisions
Nos. / and above, but which are sup
piled with sewer, water mains and gas
lights, and that the premises them
selves are supplied with sewer and
water mains, but not with gas or cleo
trio lights. There is nothing in the
statute which prohibits the use of prop
erty bordering on an alley where the
alley is supplied with sewer, water
mains and gas lights. and 1t would be
a forced construction of the statute
to apply this provision to the premises
rather than to the alley in the face Of
the plain language of the statute.
For these reasons / think the in
junction should issue, as prayed in the
bill.
Lockwood Case.
In reference to the LOCKWOOD suit,
the court wrote:
This case is similar to the case of
Norment VS.. Rudolph. decided today.
1.-The bill in this case. alleges that
the properties therein described front
on alleys which are supplied with
sewer. water mains and gas lights,
and, in addition, that a portion of the
premises front on an alley which, al
though less than thirty feet through
through and open on two of the
streets bordering the square.
For the reasons given in the Nor
ment case, an injunction will issue, as
prayed in the bill.
Attorney F. s. Smith represented
Mr.. Norment, while Attorneys Cullen,
Cusick & Finncane appeared for the
phens argued for the commission.

Heavy Increase in Mail and

One of the most important OF the
postal rence-conventions being
held throughout the United States by
the Post ONCE Department will con-
vene here the second week in Octo-

sions:
Postmaster Mooney. of the Wash

charge of local arrangements, has
sent out call for a meeting Of the
committee OF arrangements here
within a week or two. Members of
the committee comprise postmasters
in other cities.
Unusual conditions faced by the

discussed by the first and second
class postmasters who make up
the personnel OF the national associa-
ton.

1t is expected that Postmaster Gem

General Bartlett and other officials
will address the convention and out
line the needs of the postal service
for the ensuing year.
This summer the problem of max
ing both ends meet" was first in the
thoughts of the postmasters of the
first and second class offices. compris-
ing the largest cities OF the country.
The postmasters, with the aid of
the Post Office Department, managed
to pull the postal system through to
the beginning of the fiscal year with
out any Impairment of service. In
this happy result, of course, the third
and fourth class offices played their
parts.

The coming year will see the post
masters meeting unusual conditions
due to the huge increase in the postal
business of the United States. and
the problems brought about by limit
ed space in which to handle the
mails
Year by year the situation in re-
gard to space. especially in which to
handle parcel post matter becomes
more acute. In Chicago, for instance,
a great parcel post terminal has been
built especially for the handling Of
this class of mail.

Deaths of Two Senators and

The dry forces III Congress, who for
several years have exercised undis-
puted control over the legislative ma

both Senate and House. are looking
forward with some concern to the
situation which seems likely to con-
front them when the next session
meets In December.
By a combination OF circumstances
the men now in line for chairmen of
the Senate and House Judiciary COM

hibition measures, are Senator Bran

tive Graham Of Pennsylvania, both of
whom voted against the eighteenth

Progress Through Deaths.
Senator Brandegee has become the
ranking member of his committee
through the successive deaths of Sena-

inherited the ranking position on the
House committee through the defeat

U.S.NOT CONSULTED
|NBR|nSH DECISION
No Suggestions Volunteered
Here on Forthcoming
Note to Germany.

An authoritative statement here
yesterday made il clear that the
Washington government had not been
ing the forthcoming British reply to
the German note on the Preparations
situation. 1t was added, also, that
Washington had volunteered no sug-
gestions and that press reports that
there had been interchanges of views
through the London embassy were
without foundation in fact.
In support of the official denial that
there had been any negotiations it
was pointed out that the State De-
partment was dependent today on
press accounts from London for light
as to the nature Of the British plan.
Department officials declined to COM
ment In any way on what the premier
said.
Attempt at solution Seen.
Mr.. Baldwins phraseology at sew
eral points was generally regarded in
Washington as implying that some
attempt was in process 70 find REM
edy for the PREPARATIONS tangle through
joint international action to determine
Gcrmany's capacity to pay as an eco
nomic fact If that should prove to
be the substance of the British cabi-
net proposals when they are an
nounced, undoubtedly the plan would
have much in common with the sug
gestions made by Secretary Hughes
to the French government last Oc-
tobcr
Since the viewpoint of the Ameri-
can government on the British pro-
posals could not possibly be formu-
lated until they were known in de-
tail, it is doubtful that the State De-
partment has begun to determine
American policy in connection with
recent developments abroad.
No Part for United States.
Officials here still take the position
that there has been no change in the
European tangle that makes the mat
ter one in which the American gov
eminent could intervene in any diplo-
matte way further than the steps
taken last fall and winter in seeking
to avert drastic action by the French
Belgian and Italian governments. 1t
also is felt strongly that discussion
Of the question in Washington at
this stage would be untimely and
filled with possibilities of misunder-
standings and additional complica-
lions. In view of this feeling there
Is no disposition in any official quar-
ter to break the silence maintained
by the Washington government from
the beginning of the present crisis
abroad.
