OPSECTS TO THE ARRANGEMENT. Col. Reeves, one of the big producers, Stated his cave. He desired the power of the Commissioners to collect money for the oc- cupation of the public streets, avd anid further that all money collected (axsuming jfor the sake of argument thst tre Commis- sioners had the power to 0 collect, could not be disbursed according to law. This was now being done. Capt. Aldrich, the assistant clerk of the mar- ket, interrnpted the speaker, stating that the collection was not compulsory. If the farmers cleaned up the places no money would be collected. 4 of the largest producers and he was without « Place. He was willing to contest the law and was willing to stand a test As far ns the stands were concerned they had been partially assigned. He would give the Commissioners 1,000. year for several of them. CAPT. ALDRICH’S REPLY. Capt. Aldrich, in reply, disclaimed any par- tiality. The whole matter of assignment had been left to Mr. Sautler, one of the old watch- men, and he believed he bad mado the assign- | menis impartially. The reason Col. Reeves had no stand was because he had not attended market for @ month. The stands had been distr.bpted to those who were regular attendants. Mr. Beyer, an oke of what he called the injustice of the whole matter. He, like Col. Reeves, had no place, and none bad been assigned to him. Capt. Aldrich took issue with bim on this statement and explained that he had assigned Mr. Beyer a place with Mr. MeSweeny. WHY HE DIDN'T WaNT rt. “That place belonged to Bill Jones, the avenger, and be ain't aman to be trifled with. We didn't want his stand,” said Mr. eyer. ‘he new scheme is a failure and no improve- ment on the old system aud I trust the Com- issioners will go back to Col.

Give them all au equal chance.” Commissioner Douglass said they couldn't do that, for they would be tined for running a lot tery. FARMERS WHO APPROVE IT.

Chairman Hain in a letter to the Press today declares that the article way an absolute un- truth, that he never wrote such @ letter, added: ‘The democratic ship ~All on board are getting off.

Ho argued that the obstruction there was clearly a violation of law. Mr. Douglass asked if it were held to be legal whether Mr. Crane would not think the present arrangement u good one, as a matter of convenience, and what the farmers and the public want. We can't assume what anybody wants,” said Mr. Crane, “tho law is there and we must obey the law.” THE COMMIRSIONERS AND THE LAW. Mr. Douzlass said they had two opmione— one by Mr. Riddle and one by Mr. Thomas— that these regulations were legal and correct and two decisions by the Police Court to the same effect. He asked what they were to do. Mr. Crane said the law was there and the Commissioners could sce what ik was. Mr. Douglass eaid the Commissioners would not rot themselves up against everybody and decide legal questions to suit themscives. Mr. Crane asked what the Commissioners would do if the chief of engineers enforced the Jaw and cleared this space; they would not, he supposed, oppose the United States govera- it. mei “When that is done we will settle that ques- tion,” said Mr. Douglass. “They haven't com- menced to clean it off yet.
