## Opinion text

By the Cotjbt.
1. The motion to quash was rightly overruled, for two reasons; it was made too late, and the complaint is sufficient. Commonwealth v. Rowe, ante, 79. 2. The license of the defendant as a hawker and pedler did not authorize him to violate a lawful police regulation of the city of Boston. Commonwealth v. Fenton, 139 Mass. 195 . 3. It is not necessary that the regulation upon which the complaint is founded should be approved by the Superior Court, or a justice thereof. The Pub. Sts. c. 27, § 21, do not apply to the ordinances or regulations of the board of aldermen of the city of Boston. Commonwealth v . Davis, 140 Mass. 485 .
Exceptions overruled.
