HALLORAN'S LICERS: REFUSED ONCE MORE' (Continued From First Page.) place he opposed the license on the | ground that many of the 1,250 chil- dren who attend St. Mary's school have to pass by the Hotel Washing- ton and he thought it would have a | demoralizing effect to have them | walk past a saloon. He opposed the license in the second place on the | ground that it is in a residential dis- | trict. Father Winters said that there | is no doubt but what the lower end “little Bow- has forty- odd of Lafayette street is a ery” and even though four stores there are families living Washington to Beaver streets he called it purely residential and sald that the upper end could be looked after by the factories so it was this section he was trying to protect. Tabs Are Insulted. Continuing the pastor said he con- sidered it a rap and an insult to put a saloon so near the Y. M- T. A. & B. society building and said that inas- | much as the association had been e tablished there first he thought they should have the preference. He ex- plained that the Y. M. T. A. & B. so- ciety is not a prohibition society but merely a temperance society and that it is his belief that all saloons which were established before their | advent into this section should be un- molested, but on the other hand he thought that he has the r ight to pro- test against the installation of any new ones since they came. He said that the “Tabs” have been organized for over twenty-five years and have the best wishes of all businessmen in thelr locality, even the saloon men themselves, because of their non-ag- gressive attitude. As another argu- ment against granting the license, Father Winters stated that he rep- resented about $30,000 worth of property near the site of the Hotel Washington Ile told Attorney Barbour that he was simply speaking as the pastor of the church and the chaplain of the Tabs, as he had not been officially ap- pointed to protest, having declined to Go so when asked by the soclety, Factories Oppose License. E. F. Hall, representing Humason & Beckley, said that this factory is opposed to the license on the ground that it is too near their buildings, where ninety men are employed. E. M. Pratt, from the Corbin Screw cor- | poration, sald that his concern em- ploys over 2,000 hands and does not want another saloon so near its gates. He replied to a question from Mr. Barbour by saying that it was not the custom of his concern to molest saloons which were established before his factory built near them. Another factory man to voice a pro- test was L. P. Ships, representing Rus- sell & Erwin's where 1,600 men are employed. He said that this shop is always opposed to the granting of new licenses near their works. R. H. Crawford, superintendent of the Boys' club sald that his directors had in- structed him to speak against the it seventy over them. From One Over on Barbour. Leo Andrewlivich, the principal of the Polish Parochial school, made a strong argument against granting the license on the ground that fully one- third of the children in his care would have to pass by the hotel in going to and from their homes. Attorney Bar- hour fired many questions at him as to why he had not been opposed to Te- newing the license at Sheehan's or Glover's saloon. Each time the wit- ness said that he had not done so on the ground that they were established before he came here and therefore he diG not consider it his business to molest them. As Attorney Barbour kept pressing the question however, Mr. Andrewlivich suddenly turned on him and said: “Well, Mr. Barbour, If yvou will start a petition against Sheehan's or Glover's I will sign it willingly—but I will not start one on my own initiative.” “You're excused,” replied the lawyer. After a couple of others had testified the witnesses were excused and in a few minutes the commissioners had announced their decision. Their argu- ments were short and Commissioner Lyons was the only man who was in favor of granting the license, the two other men voting against it. Attorney | Rarbour immediately filed his inten- tions of an appeal to the superior court, MAY ATTEND SYNOD MEETING IN ILLINOIS Dr. S. G. Ohman Contemplates Trip to Sycamore—Is in Poor Health.
