City pedestrians upheld as Magistrate rules on sidewalk clears
Magistrate Harris of Jefferson Market Court ruled city officials may seize goods left on sidewalks that obstruct pedestrians. Harnett and McGuire of the Street Cleaning Department removed four fur cases valued at $8 from Broadway and 10th Street, sending them to canal yard incumbrances. A Bonis & Co. rep failed to secure satisfaction from Commissioner Crowell and sought a grand larceny charge, which the magistrate declined after hearing testimony. He stated support for the department and urged storekeepers to comply with the law, noting earlier automobile disruption and now sidewalk encroachments.
