In compliance with the request the pe- titioners, the council also declared by vote that the existing conditions in the Margin street premises were a nuisance, and order issued!for its im- mediate abatement. This order was directed to the own- er of the property, who had no rights therein, as the fertilizer company had lease of the property for one year, and the practical owner during the life of the lease. It is claimed, there- fore, that the service of the order was deficlent, and further that the simple declaration that the place was a pub- lic nuisance did not make it so, and that the allegation, as specified in the petition, should be supported by sworn testimony, and at a hearing for that purpose by the persons in interest. It is said that the fertilizing com- pany has been advised to conduct its business on the premises, regardless of the order, and that the stench that did come from the place and from the material carted through the public streets, be remedied. ~ It is claimed that the really objectionable features can be removed. In the meantime the action of the council and the counter-action of the fertilizing com- pany, may eventually resuit in the matter being settled by the courts. Among the petitioners are citizens of pronounced prominence and influence, who are residents on Margin street, and vicinity.
