Mr. Desmond spoke at length on the subject, saying that the people lie rep- Tesented considered the ruling of ‘the council regarding the publ stands as causing them great inconvenience and harmPul to their business. For many years, said Mr. Desmond, Union square was the public stand for hacks and ‘ex- ipress wagons, but several Years -ago Al- \1yn L. Brown, as mayor, designated Rose) proximity Fwanklin ‘square. Frankiin square is the accepted center of the wcity and ‘the traveling public naturally gravitates to thts place. The publie service operators could not coumt on people going to Union square ‘to get the cars. The peo- ple Who ©Wwn and operate tiese public gervice machines feel the mew ordinance will drive them out of business. The public service muchines must be on the ove to take up passenge ‘Passengers I never go to fhe public service machines Ibut the public service cars must go to the passengers. The people 1 Tepresent feel that there is no solid gzround for {4 the ruling and they feel that they have not abused the privileges granted them, there having been no accidents or injur- jes. They feel that the ruling is unjust. The public has not been inconvenienced and the ruling is equivalent to putting ‘thiera dut of business. City Mas the Right.
