Yesterday morning Contractor Boson and
seven of his carpenters employed on the now
Evans block on South Main were arrested ,
charccd with violating the city ordinance
relative to erecting fraino buildings within
the nro limits. The building permit , No. 919 ,
was issued July 19 , and calls for a $3,000
building of galvanized iron and slate roof.
The construction of the building has caused
considerable comment , from the fact that it
is located on a lot , n purt of which Is claimed
by the city for n waterway. The south wall
of the building was started with studding ,
after the manner of an ordinary frame
structure ) , with no flro w.ill between It and
the adjoining building. The attention of the
chief of the tire department was called to it ,
nnd he tiled the information that led to tbo
arrest nbovo referred to. Contractor Uoson
promised the court that no further work
should bo done until the matter was settled ,
ind the defendants were accordingly re
leased. The case will bo tried Monday. The
owner of the property , T. J. Evans , is out of
the city. The contractor states that tbo
building will bo of corrugated iron and brick
and in compliance with the ordinances. The
chief of the lire department says that the
building was being bullt > in violation of the
ordinance , but ho took no action In the mat
ter because the contractor told him that
ttioro would bo a brick flro wall erected on
the south side.
