AFTER THE OLEO DEALERS.
Councilman James Determined That
the Law Must Re Enforced.
Select Councilman Ktlwanl Jnmis
Introduceil 11 n-sitilutlon last night
which passed both branches of counciH
unanimously and which in inteii'let tu
stop tho illegal traffic In oloomargeritn..
which is said to be common In this
city.
Tho resolution directs tho food in
spector to stringently enforce the ev
istlng laws regulating the who of oleo.
margerlne, an 'it is apparent thnt aueh
laws are not now enforced." Mr.
James intiodueed a resolution bonie
time ago directing the food Inspector
to furnish a list of nil parties bavins;
licenses to sell the stuff. Thin was
done and Jlr. James now has tlv list
In Ills pfhsesslon.
I ft? says that he desires the food in
spector to tlrst see that the licensed
dealers lino tip to the law before pro
ceeding against the unlicensed deal
ers. The" law requited that whera a
merchant Is licensed to sell oleomar
gerine he must put up a sign In a
conspicuous place announcing that it
Is sold there. Some dealers do not
display this sign at all and others taek
up slns bearing the word". "Butter
iiie Sold," but manage to hang some
thing overthe "ine."

POLICE OFFICERS
TO FEEL THE AXE
THAT IS THE STATEMENT MADE
IN SELECT COUNCIL.
Mr. McAndrew Charged That tho

Select Councilman J. J. McAndrew
rather strongly hinted at lait night's
mooting of that branch of council Hint
a movement Is on foot to romovo cer
tain policemen fiom the force nnd put
others In their place.
Karly In the evening Mr. Oliver In
troduced a resolution which read as
follows: "Tho chief of police is hereby
directed on and after the Hist of June
to furnish a monthly record to councils
of tho absentatlons from duty of cac:i
and every police officer during the
previous month, and tho causes why
such nbscntatlons were ma.ie." This
was passed without any objection.
Later In this evening Mr. MoAndtcw
moved that council lcconsider action
on the icsolution. In explaining his
reasons, he seemed to have misunder
stood the meaning of the resolution. iv
ho said ho didn't believe in ducking
any policemen for being absent from
duty, it he was obliged to be. Mr. Oli
ver hastened to lenssure hint that tho
resolution said nothing whateicr about
docking, and In proof of this had It
lead over again.
Mr. Chittenden then aiose anil com
menced to explain that thoie was
nothing in the resolution about dock
ing, and that It was a peifcctly proper
one. He was Interrupted by Mr. Mc
Andtew, however, who stood up and
said very excitedly:
M'ANDItK W'S REM A HKS.
"Ob, we know what It mentis. We
know that you've already caucused and
that you've already named tho officers
who have got to go. I still Insist tin
my motion to reconsider."
Mr. Cl.lttenden said nothing In reply,
and the motion to reconsider was lost
by the following vote:
