COHEN IS BOYCOTTED Local Cattle Dealers Refuse to Do Business With Contractor at Muni- cipal Slaughter House. The cattle dealers of this city, mostly Hebrews, have placed an ,n- formal boycott on Nathan Cohen of Ansonia, holder of the contract buy hides at the municipal slaughter house. Thus far, it is said, the lggal butchers have refused to sell Y hides to Mr. Cohen even though he does pay the regulation market price. The reason for this unusual action i that the health board saw fit to award the contract to Cohen in pref- erence to the East Side Hide and .Tal- low company of Hartford, even after ‘the local butchers had sent a joint 1 asking that the Hartford man be given the job. Spite seems to be the only reason for the action of the cattle men, especial- BABY'S HEAD A - TERRIBLE SIGHT to! J. W. HAMMOND, Ese.

Under the terms of Cohen’s .con- tract he is to pay the city $300 per year for the privilege of being the sole bidder for hides at the slaughter house and in addition he is to have the Janitor work at the abbatoir done in a satisfactory manner. While Cohen has the sole right to bid on hides at the slaughter house there is nothing to compel dealers to sell to him and they are taking advantage of this right by taking their hides off the premises to sell. Jndications are that the cattle men are making a concentrated effort to “freeze” the :Ansonia man out of bus- iness.
