One hundred and twenty city saloon licenses expired yesterday, and up to last evening fifty-one had come forward and renewed, paying down §125 each, as required by the new ordinance. Two of them »wore considerably, because they said they had been promised that ia the event of the election ol a Democratic council the license would be reduced to §150 dollars a year.

An ordinance reduciug the amount to ?150 has been drawn, but nqf one has jTet found sufficent nerve to offer it.
