Thk News' report of the alder men's meeting yesterday afternoon closed at 6 o'clock, just after the third Ucenee bad been granted, and aa Intimated, the beard granted li censes to all who had applied. Those who received licenses were: The Portner Brewing Co., Rudolph Arndt, Joe Llndy, W. A. Jacqulns, A. R. Bowles, W. P. Snider, S. J. Austin, C. C. West, C. Roediger, O. W. Badger and J. N. Hunter. Messrs J. B Ross and John McCorkle were granted license by the board at the November meeting. In granting li censes yesterday, the board did ro under some very proper restrictions that were unanimously adopted. They were made at the suggestion of alderman Hlfford.l The platform un der which the licenses were granted provides first that the city shall not be responsible for lawsuits that may arise. A sign must be placed over each door to this effect: "No person under 21 year of age allowed in this house," under a penalty of $25 for each offense. Any minor who in vades a bar is to be fined $25. The barkeeper is to keep a registry book In which he Is to record the name of each party he has challenged. The barkeeper who sells or gives liquor to a minor, or sells or gives it away on Sunday, is to pay a fine of $2C0. Auy barkeeper or clerk who shall enter his place of business on Sun day, or stand around the front door, shall be fined $?. The bars can le opened only between sunrise and 11 o'c oct at night. A resolution of fered by alderman Clarkson that all screens be removed from the saloon doors and windows, was voted down. AlderinaniSifTord voted for license. Before doing so, he readf this paper: "I wish to make a statement to the Hon. Mayor and Board of Aldermen, an to what manner of vote I shall 4l in this contest. I deem it a doty that I owe to myself and mv con stituents to whom I am indebted for my election as an alderman to say that groat injustice has been done me, as one of the officials of the city government. "It has been stated that I had been forced against my honest convictions to vote for license on account of the business I was engaged in (Ice). I brand this as a falsehood. Tis true.1 it is in a larce measure against my business, but I hold principal and honor far above the paltry "loaves and fishes." When I was nominated for aldermau from my ward, fears were entertained that I could not l elected on account of having voted the prohibition ticket at some previ ous elbcllons, those fears were allay ed by myself and my friends, that 1 , I . a . couiu iuii :iuu wouui not lu tein pi to meddle with any husiiie under the existing laws, that such matters could only be settled by a majority of the people at ilia ballot box. "The several lnwn in existence then are still in existence There has Imen no change, either State or municipal. Two months agoeleveu oat of twelve aldermen favored license. To-day some of them say they have received uftlcient authority to change their votes. I shall not question their au thority. They have a perfect right to their opinions. I accord to myself the same. "I contend that it is contrary to the oldest landmarks of civil government to usurp a power not delegated by the people. I honestly believe that there Is not an alderman on this board that oould have been elected on this Issue, I know I oould not Therefore usurp log a power not given me by my constituents, Is something unknown in the history of this country so far as my knowledge goes, and contrary to the oath I took to uphold the city government "Tbese, with other views, soch as high license with a well regulated system, and the city government properly and economically adminis tered, Is what a majority of the peo ple want lust nowJ I shall vote, for license " Although granted license by the aldermen, the saloon keepers have not essayed to open their doors, and the saloons remain closed. They prefer to await the action of the county commissioners, and are not inclined to take any risks. Alder man W. t. Buchanan, who was granted license by the city, yester day, applied to the commissioners for license, and the same old scenes ate being enacted over before that board again. Clarkson A.

This socltty. dur, ing the past year increased steadily both in numbers and interest and the funds collected from its mem bers make a material increase in the amount contributed by this church to foreiga missions.

It is a real Commercial col lege, with competent teachers and ust fills the bill. It now has not only a good list of pupils from North Carolina, but Virginia and Georgia are represented o the rolls. Executive Com. Another of Mr. niioa'a "Sermon.. Rev. Tom Dixon delivered another characteristic sermon In New Yo'k, last Sunday. The Snn refers to it as "an excited harangue by an intem perate preacher." The recent rail road disaster was his theme and he pronoun aed it one of the most brutal and devi!ih performances within the ancaus of ' railroad crimes." "If you say that Mr. Depew is not re sponsible for these murders," he .shouted, "the i who is? It is high time our Government defined clear ly who is responsible for life on the public highways of this continent." Then Mr. Dixon said the New York Central officials should be sent to the penitentiary for accepting fares and starting trains when they knew the road was blocked. He rid iculed the idea of Messrs. Depew, JVel'b, and Vanderbilt going to the funeral of some of the victims of the Hastings disaster and sending flow ers to put on the cotllus of those 4-hom they murdered, and said these irentlemen should be tried for their lives.
