At first, after paseage of the ord nance, the impression prevailed that a yigorous resistance would be made to its enfore -m and it was ucderstood that about ten days sgo the Liquor Dealers’ Union, atter a stirring meeting, decided almost unanimonsly to not take out licenser. A very strong public sentimert, however, and the semi-official announcement that Mayor Boyd would vigorously enfurce the law after January 18t, brought abont a change of sentiment among the more responsi-le liquor mer- chants, who gradually commenced cireu- Iating their petitions and procuring bonds, in accordance with the requirements of the law, prier to making appli plication for their licens The briak once mads it was regarded as olving all memlers of the Union from further obligation, and each dealer decided to act for hinself, Up to this hour 35 applieations for liquor license have been nhled with the city clerk. nnd a numi er for drug license.

The objecs of the luw requiring notice by publication for two weeks in the pap:r hia ing the largest circulation in the county, is self evident.

On Saturday nicht, after the treasurer of Boyd's opera house had made up his accounts and had found that goodly shek: els to the vilue of over 81,600 had been poured ioto the coffevs of the management from the thres ontertainmint given by Leavitt's Gigantean minstrels, and had cashed « ver a large proportion thereof to the gentlemauly treasurer of that com pany, a little scene occurred. © nstable Edgerton appeared upon the scene with an attachment, which he placed on the bag gage and equipmeat of that company, which attachment was alleged to have bean obtained to insu e the paywent of 8333 against Mr. Leavitt, the | ruprietor of the troupe. This bill, upon examihtion, proved to be of & somewhat unusual character, as it was composed of 8150 bill and 8180 inte The claimant is Frank Walter known at. tor i indebt: dness in been coutricted m Omahn thirteen years a o, when Mr. Loa- vit; was a8 yet an unkn wn wanager in the show business.

Out came a fat bundle of Untted States notes which represented about 25,000, from which $100 was extracted and then taken to Mr. Boyd’s manager and d posited with him, The attachment was thus absolved. The next move was to telegraph Mr. Leavitt, who is in New York, for instructions con- cerning the matter. About two o'clock to-day the following answer was received: J. H. Surrege: Emphatically no_such claim. Employ counsel and plead Statute «f limitations, Answer resu t. M.
