He' safd when he sold out his saloon fivé years ago he, did it because he lwunud to. g0 on'the road and he dia not make any profit by the sale. Judge | Cooper pointed out om the city map that 294 South Main street is further .away from the police station than any other saloon in the city.. Butler's sa- loon on Hartford avenue is the next tarthest away. Sanderson disclaimed any inténtion of opening up the sa- loon {n order to get the Berlin trade, Attorney. Lynch asked Sanderson several questions ahout .the many achool children who attend the North. end, High and St Joseph's parochial schools who would have to pass the saloon, 2 Eighteen years ago thére were eight saloons here,” said Sanderson to show that it 18 not an unusual thing to- have four saloons in this section. ‘Wil Improve Building. Jameés Bhaw, ownér of the property at 294 South Main street for the past fourteen years, said there has always ‘been a saloon there since hé owned the place and if' & license is granted he oxpects to Temodel the interior and exterior of the building. The Wwitness 1 'spoke highly of Sanderson’s ability to conduct a high class saloon, “Why do you think a saloon is needed ” Judge Gaftney asked him. “Because it's growing s fast, they're building houses houses every day in the week there,” the witness sald. Tells' of Much Building. To a subsequent question from Judge Cooper Mr. Shaw said that be- 1 tween 200 and 300 new houses have been built in this vicinity within the past few years. “From Hilis street to Roberts street there are thirteen stores on South Main street,” said the j‘awitness to show. that the district, while { growing in. a residential way is also growing in a business way. Judge Klett questioned Mr. Shaw's statement that there have been 200 or threée hundred neéw houses built lately and asked him how many were ¢rected on the different streets. Mr. Shaw said two were built on Cherry streét, two. on Ash street, ten on Vega street, thirty or forty on Trinity street, thirty-five on' Robérts street, "stx or ¢ight on Bassett street, nine on Maple street, twelve or fiftéen on South Main street, one 6n South street, two on an- cther new streét and the other two j hundred odd houses are scattered about the neighborhoed. Others Favoring License, ‘Willlam F. Kramer, 60 Seymour avenue, thought Sanaérson and thé location: both. suitable for 4 saloon. Mr. Kramer sald hé spends five nights a weék ‘oh South Main street. J, Willie Mills. 218 South Main street, also approved of both' Sander- son and the location and expressed the opinion that the district can support 4 new ealoon, especially since Sander- gon’s old friends would. patronize him. : ) The last witness for the applicant yas Arthur J. Hilton ot 235 Seuth Main street. He said Sanderson is & suitable man to hold a license and 294 South Main stret is a good place for & saloon, Donnelly Family Opposed. Henry Donnelly, who lives at 281 South Main street and is manager of and Donnelly Brick company, repre- sented” his mother and her family. The Donnelly estate, situated only about eighty feet for where Sander- son wants a saloon, is a valuable pisce of property. = Mr, Domnelly said it 1s hard to keep his tenements rent- ed now and with another saloon there e would find it harder to rent them. Nelther does Donelly think that three saloons sént do- much busis ness nn”%o o B8l ‘Mathias Rival was obliged to M“u His ‘saloon a few years ago betausé of poor business. Mr, Donnelly did not object to Lan- dind’s removal across from his house bécause the building was gréatly im- proved befors he moéved into it. While Mr. Donnelly admittéed tking té Mr, MoCarthy, who runs anothér sa. loon' in this district, he deénied that he ¢ame at hip behest, on the other hand ‘saying that he had tried to in- duce. Mr., MecCarthy to come to thé hearing. M. B. Taylor, a store keep- er, also objects to the saloon but re- fused to appear in opposition, said the witness. A # i . Former Official Protests. Former Building Inspéétor August Bergstrom of Trinity street appeared as a remonstrant and said another =aloon would cause property values to drop in this vicinity. Mr. Bergstrom also greatly ¢ut down Mr, Shaw's es- timate of the number of new houses nearby. 23 Louls Wallen of 243 South Main street strongly objected to the grant- ing of the license ad showed a writ- ten remonstrance signéd by many res- idents. He did not think there is any need of a new saloon. Fears lllegal Business, Patrick Hannon, for sixteen years a ‘property ownér on South Man atreet, objected to a new saloon on the grounds that there are enough saloons now. ‘My opinién is that with the in- creased license fee next year the su- loon men in this vicinity, in view of theéir present business, will have to do something besides an honest business to get by,” said Mr. Hannon. Axel W. Appel of registered a remonstrance. In summoning up the case for his client Judge Gaffney said that “for time out of mind this honorabie board has ‘adjudged this a suitable place and Mr. Sanderson a suitable man. 1 don’t want to make any unreasonable demands. All I want is a good fair consideration.” After further argument for his client Judge Gaffney concluded by - calling at- tention to the fact that Mr. Sander- son has hiz own following who will patronize him. ““They won't go to Landino’s place, WwWho comes from the sunny shores of the Medi anean, or the McCarthy's, Wwho ¢omes from the green shores of | speaker saiq, Trinity street | Judge’ Cooper, represented = Bric Carleon, who owns eleven tenements i this vicinity, and objected to an- other saloon on the grounds & that there are now saloons enough there and the policy of the county com- missioners is to cut down the saloons in - the outskirts. Judge Klett repre- sented Mr. Wallen, and argued strong- ly against another saloon. on Ssuth . Main street. Mr. Lynch had nothing ‘to say. “Brother lLynch’s modeésty is most pleasing,” said Judge Gaffney. i Priests Also Object. Remonstrances were also filed by Rev. Patrick Daly and Rev. J, L. Sullivap, both of St. Joseph's church, on the grounds that there are already three saloons in this vieinity of their church. Io have another saloon in the neighborhood would be a de- triment, they think. Gaffney and Cooper Clash. One of Judge Klett's . arguments had been that there is no demand fcr & saloon on South Main street by the many résidents, therefore ome s not needed. To this Judge Gaftney remarked that not long ago Judge Cooper had appeared before the comn- missioners to remonstrate against the granting of a liquor license in the northwestern séction of the city where there is'a demand and where thére is & saloon monopoly. Instantly Judge Cooper was on his feet objecting but Judge Gaffney serenely talked on, .unmindful = of Judge Cooper's excitément, until compelléd to listen to him. Judge Cooper said he objected to this etate- ment by Judge Gaffney and declared that he had not appeared at that hearing as a paid lawyer. He said he appeared.in objection at the or- der of the school board of which Judge Gaftney himself is chairman. “Oh, don't get 80 sensitive,” re- plied ‘Judge Gaffney. “I'm not sensitive but I didn’t ap- .pear to protect the monopoly. 1 appeared at the request of your own board,” shot back Judge Cooper. TO LIMIT EXPORT OF COTTON TO NEUTRALS England Will Only Allow Amount of Actnal Need to Be Sent to Na- tions Not at Wir, Londop, July 16.—The British gov- ernment hopes very shortly to limit the export of cotton to neutral coune tries to the precise amount of actual neéed. The Marquis of Crewe, lord president of the council and liberal | 1eader in the House of Lords, made an announcement to this affect in the upper house yesterday afternoon. The Marquis of Crewe's statement was madé in reply to a seriés of ques- tions by Baron Charnwood regarding the supply of cotton and other ma- terial through neutral countries to Germany, and whether the govern- ment had found that the measures taken eince,last March weré effective. The real question, he thought, was whether it was advisable to add cot- tén to the contraband list. On that question there had beéen a numbér of misunderstanding and -misappre- hénsions and some of them, the undoubtedly obtained not only in this country but in neu- tral countries. So far as could be ascertained, the lord presideént of the council con- tinued the naval measures taken to prevent fresh supplies of cotton from reaching Germany had been success- ful. “In the United States,” he said, ‘‘the placing of cotton. on the contraband list would cause no small amount of alarm, and the government is con. vinced that so far as the entrance of cotton into Germany is coneernéd we should gain no benefit. At pres- ént we stand better in instructed public opinion in thé United States than our enemies, and theréfore, un- less it is clear that a change of this kind is absoluteély necessary the gov- ernment is averse to taking action whi¢h would be regarded particularly in the séuthern statés of America as being. unfriendly,” AFTER NEW RECORDS, Cambridge, Mass., July 16.—Ai- tempts to establish two new world's amateur records were scheduled for today at the Harvard Stadium track Norman F. Taber, formerly of Borwn and Oxford Universities, planned, with the ald -of pacemakers, to attack the record of four minutes, 14 2-5 se- conds for thé mile run, made by Joha Paul Jones on this track three years ago. Taber, who ran second to Jones and who is now a member of the Boston Athletic association has, been doing some fast rufining sin¢s ' his réturn from Oxford in the spring. 1t was his ambition, not only to lower Joties’ record, but to eclipse the pro- fessiona] record of four minutes, 12 8-4 mecond, made by W. B, George in England in 1886, The other effort planned was by ‘W. H. Meanix. formerly of Colby college and now a student at Har- vard, who hoped to set a new time for the 440 yarde hurdles. The record of 56 4-5 seconds was rhade by G. L. Anderson of England in 1910. An. derton has been killed in the war. FATHER BEDARD ILL. Putnam, July 16.—It has just be- c¢ome known here that Rev.
