The Court Batatai te Tranefer Adam Ratal man's Llcence-The IUaten Ulren. Oa Saturday afternoon application was made te the oeurt for the transfer et the lleense of Adam Kuhlman te Patrlek Burns. The plaee for which the transfer was asked is located at the corner et Chestnut and Market streets and "vas kept aa a restau rant by Jehn B. LebkL-ker for many years. When he retired in April the plaee was leased te Adam Kuhlman and the lleense granted te him. The oeurt refused te grant the transfer asked ler, and in addition revoked the ll ll oense granted te Kuhlman, thus leaving the house without a lleense. The reason given by the oeurt was that Kuhlman has net lived In the house since April 1, the oe. cupant being Patrick Burns, who new peti tioned te have ths lleense transferred, while the rule of oeurt requires the party te whom a lleense la granted te live at the place licensed. Fer a similar reason the lleense el a Columbia hotel-keeper was re voked en Monday. The application for a transfer waa regularly advertised, and the refusal of the oeurt te grant the transfer prayed for was a great surprise te the many friends of Mr. Burnp.
