TELLIUM Several Appear Before City Commission When Discussion of Peddlers License Is Resumed Th discussion of the peddlers license and street concessions consumed about an hour of th regular session of the City Commissioners yesterday. A delegation of relal" grocery dealers appeared before the commissioners and stated their view upon the subject V. H. Howard, manager of the Brock Urocery Company, apoke first and stated that would prove untrue the statement made severs! day ago by advocates of the fruit venders, that the no wagona were helping the grocers' business by creating a demand for fruits.

J. Baker, a groceryman of West Knd. stated that th peddlers worried him considerably aa they bought up curs of Irish potatoea. apples and that the grocers had refused because of their Inferiority and retailed It at un exceptionally low Mgure. He said the customers do not know It Is Inferior and that the peddlers retailed the potatoea at fifteen cents a peck and apples at tblrty-flve cents per peck which was less than he could buy them at.

He further added that this was ruining the banana trade in West End, as formerly bunches of bananas "were noticeable In every grocery tore but the grocers cannot handle them now. J. M. Allen, a merchant at No. til Clay street, asserted that the fruit peddlers were hurting him as they stop by hi very door and sell potatoea for twenty cents per peck while he pays ninety cents per bushel for them wholesame.

He want wagons taxed so they will be forced to sell at legitimate prices. He declared that these wagons always showed up at pay days and picked up all the ready cash while he had to carry the accounts. France's Vlewa. J. II.

Pearson, a- groceryman of the Mt. Meigs Road, declared that the ped dlers do not sell anything but inferior fruit and always stop in front of his tore and that the grocery stores need protection a they pay license ana taxes and cannot move their places around. He say that he cannot buy fruit by the barrel as it spoils because of no demand. He says the peddlers not only sell fruit but all kinds of produce and that the products they sell are a violation of the sanitary laws. He says when th peddler sells a dozen rotten apples he drives off and cannot be found while If he should sell rotten fruit the customers would bring it back.

Mr. Howard declared that the fruit venders were doing a profitable business for several have more than one license for a wagon, stating that twelve have a license on two wagons while Segall has licenses on five. "If this were not a profitable business, could they exist," he asked. He stated that all the grocers asked for was a fair deal as citizens of the United States. G.

F. Nettles, of the Nettles Grocery Company, Btated that the peddlers were Including with their fruit such Items as canned tomatoes and vegetables. Duncan May, of No. 2 Court Square, declared that although he was not a grocer, his business was parallel to the grocers. He said that he has noticed conditions on Court Square where the fruit wagons lined up in front of the First National Bank building and In front of the Square Deal store and besides selling fruit from the wagons, had reserve stocks of fruits in boxes around the wagons and that they also sold raisins and other things.

He further said that the merchants wait all year for the Christmas trade and as soon as Christmas comes these peddlers scoop all the cream and, they, get nothinng. He said the expense of his store was $55 per day and he could not afford to sell a barrel of apples with thirty cents profit. In conclusion Mr. May remarked, "If you do nothing else, for God's sake get them off the business streets on Christmas eve." Wants License Reduced. L.

Strauss, secretary of Wolff's Drug Store, appeared in behalf of the fruit peddlers and requested that the commissioners reduce the present license of $100 to $50. "The only interest I have In this matter is to do the most good to the most people. That Is, since the fruit peddlers have come to this city, the most of fruits has fallen until they are in the reach of the poor people. Before these peddlers came here, the poor could no buy fruia as grapes were forty cents a pound and orangeB sold as high as ten cents each. Last week oranges sold for one cent each.

"The city of Montgomery is now deriving $1,750 in licenses from the fruit peddlers while the fruit stores pay only $870 per annum, ice peddlers $135, ce cream peddlers $ly0, coal dealers $450. coal peddlers $480 and laundries $4 80 per annum. The average grocer who retails groceries, household articles, oysters, fruits and, pay only $35 license per annum while there is only one grocer in the city who pays $fi0. We also find that Kress who sells hundreds of different articles pays only per year license hut It is considered that Kress Is the poor man's store and so is the fruit peddler, the poor man's friend. "The main argument advanced by the opponents of the fruit peddlers is, the peddlers can go on the same street where the grocer is located but this same rule can be applied to the solicitors who are sent out by many businesses and come to your very door soliciting for their respective firms." No final action has yet been taken.

He claimed that he had ordered two quarts for himself and that he had given Parker Bell the money to order him two more quarts.

Bell was found by the officers and placed under arrest, it being claimed that he had violated the section of the prohibition laws which prohibits one person from ordering whiskey for another. When the case was called In Police Oourt Tuesday afternoon, Richard changed his story and said that Parker knew nothing of It. Bell was then discharged, and Officers Cloud and Watts placed Glenn under arrest on a charge of vagrancy. Frank Williams, negro, was then called to face the acting recorder on a charge of violating the prohibition laws and the decision in this case caused much comment among thoBe who sit in the Police Court day after day. Williams was arrested when a quart of whiskey was found in his room, which is over a pool room on North Court Street.

It was brought out In the Police Court that while the building in which Wlllams resides is not used exclusively as a residence, that his room on th esecond floor was his only home. The defendant was not placed on the stand. Captain Stern, his attorney, and Captain Smith agreeing on the testimony that would be presented. Acting Recorder Stough then discharged the defendant Jesse W. Powell was the next defendant to face the acting recorder on a charge of violating the prohibition laws.

He had merely written a letter for a negro. Ed Watts, who could neither read or write, ordering two quarts of whiskey for the negro. He was therefore discharged. flrape Frnlt, SO cents a dos. Pork Chops, 15 cents a lb.

Amusements ALL STAR REVIVAL OF "BOHEMIAN GIRL." When "The Bohemian Girl" all-star revival comes to the Grand Theatre Saturday, January 1st, matinee and night, we will have an opportunity of hearing the world's favorite comic opera with the greatest aggregation of atara ever heard before in one com pany in this country. Of the "Bohemian Girl" little need be eald, its praises have been sung In every civilised oountry on earth. and its famous numbers, such as Then You'll Remember Me." "I Dreamt That I Dwelt in Marble Halls," "The Heart Bowed Down," and "Bliss For ever Past," as well as its beautiful chorus numbers are known wherever music exists. In spite of the fact that for years good, bad and indifferent companies have hacked away at this beautiful opera, its popularity has in creased year after year, and it stands today, acknowledged the world's greatest comic opera. With such a vehicle is it any won der that the all-star revival with such artists as Joseph F.

Sheehan as Thaddeus; Mirth Carmen as Arllne; Elaine De Sellem as the Gypsy Queen; Arthur Deane as Count Arnheim: Eugene Crowel as Devilshoof; Philip Fein as Florestein; Wave Cronberger as the Captain and Lillian Hall as Buda. has proved the one big sensation of the musical world? Critics in every city where this all star cast has appeared agree that for all-around excellence it has never been equalled, and some even go so far as to say It excels the cast originally selected by the composer himself for the Initial per- rormance. Add to this an especially selected chorus which has played together in over 400 performances and you have a combination such as seldom reen on tour In these days. It is therefore gratifying to know that not for years has any attraction on tour equalled the business done by mis organization. City after citv re ports the same story, 'Every seat in the house sold and many turned awav." all of which proves that, in spite of tne nue and cry of bad business, If you give the public something they want they will come to it.
