practically one-half of the First precinct
of tho Plxth ward and a portion of the
Fifth ward. The petition wan referred to
the committee of the whole without com
ment. Junk Dealer 8tin'a recently erected shack
on Broadway came up for another round,
tho matter helm? brought up by Mayor
Macrae. The mayor proieated In vigorous
language. against the action of the council
at Its previous meeting In granting Stein
permission to leave the shack on the lot
facing Broadway In the business portion
of the city. He contended that the council
hud acted Illegally in granting any person
authority to violate a city ordinance, which,
n.4 chief executive of the city was supposed
to see were enforced. After considerable,
discussion, on motion of Councilman Knud
sen, who claimed he was not fully cognizant
of all the circumstances In the case, when
ut the previous meeting he voted In favor
of allowing Stein to retain the building at
lis present location, the council voted to
reconsider its former action, Councilman
Alaloney alone voting In the negative. Th
whole matter was then referred to City
Solicitor Kimball to recommend what pro-
ceodings should bo brought to compel 8tln
to remove the obnoxious structure.

matters.

CJh, well, we are not through with him
