"NOTHING IN IT," SAYS CHIEF OF RARE BOOKS ROOM TALK

The earlier trouble ended 19 October. It was thought settled.

Readers may remember the business at Rare Books Room, which ended 19 October without anyone much the wiser.

Residents near Warehouse No. 7 — the Stair Below were talking yesterday of little else. According to a resident of long standing, dockhands report chanting beneath Carver & Sons Warehouse No. 7. Neighbours say it has been building for 12 days — since 16 October.

Sergeant Mahoney of the River Street station described the reports as 'high spirits'.

Talk in the neighbourhood runs to a vagrant living in the building.
