\ THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, JULY 27, 1896. TUBERCULAR COWS SOLD FOR FOOD, The Board of Health Will Stop the Nefarious Traffic. A MENACE TO HEALTH. T¢-Day the First Effort to Pre- vent the Sale Will Be Made. VIGOROUS ACTION PROMISED. A Band of Sick Cows Driven Into San M:teo County to Avoid Inspection. The Board of Health will begin an in- vestigation to-day into the disposition of cows suffering from tuberculosis. ft has been brought to the attention of the board that some unscrupulous persons have taken diseased cows from dairy ranches in the County of San Franciseo and sold the animals to butchers for slaughter. This was done to avoid the loss of the cows, which appeared inevitable in case of an examination of their condition by the Board of Health Inspectors. The owners of these infected csttle knew very well tl the official inspectors would instantly kill all cows afflicted with tuber- culosis and so they sold the sick animals. By thus taking timé bv the forelock the owners, so it is stated, have got fair prices for cows the iate of which was already sealed. startling news set the mem- bers of the Board of Health thinking very bard for a dsy or two, and they have ail come to the same conclusion—that imme- diate steps must be taken to stop thisdan- ¢ in consumptive cows, and to institute legal proceedings against jes caught at it. H. Hart of the Board of indignant yesterday when he equestion. He branded the ¢ in tuberculous cattie as murder—the ntemptible kind of mur: ong language, but it came cian who knew what be was 1f these cows are being slaughtered for meat 1t is & terribie thing,” “It is monstrous. I intended to some members of the board g aboat it, but was prevented gent call. I shall, however, bring r before the board to-morrow, ore than likely some action will be to pat an end to this disgraceful ‘Suppose a dairyman is informed that his cows are suffering from tuberculosis, there is where & crime is batched at cnce if the dsiryman should sell them. It'sa me when any one will seil castle for food knowing it to be diseased, the foulest kind of a crime done in a secret way. For the sake of a few dollars he makes, thousands of people are exposed to the dangers of ing meat ful! of the germs of consump- f course, some people are constitu y strong enough to withstand it It's troe the disease zerms are killed by beat, but the beat of cookihig meas is not enough to kill the germs. While the germs are most likely kitled in the well- done parts, they are alive in the rare por- tions. You may get them in the red, juicy part of your steak. -One tubercalar cow in a band in time will communicate the disease to the whole band. Drinking at the same trough or stream, eating with other cows quickly spreads the digease. “Ifall boards of health throughout the United States are as energetic as we I think this thing of Germany refusing to take American meat for fear of disease will soon be a thing of the past. Disease is being stam ount thoroughly and effectively, and there is as good f here ss anywhere in the worid.” We are stamp- ing out disease as fast as we can, and it won’'t be very long before everything will be in compiete working order wi.h pure food stations for the examination of food. “It may seem rather hard to destroy twenty or thirty, or more cows that suffer from tuberculosis, hard on the dairyman; but what is that compared to thousands of human lives sacrificed by selling dis- eased meat or mulk? In my opinion 75 per cent, if not more of the cied in large cities, and particularly in infant asylums from the milk of diseased animals. “The people themselves ought to get up in arms acainst any person Or persons known to sell meat that has been con- demned as diseased. In fact, the people should patronize butchers that they know would not do a thing of that kind. It is deliberate murder. There is no crime as great as that where a mur- der is committed in this secret way. If you meet your assailant openly you can defend yourself, but in this case you can’t. You are simply eating your own poison in the meat given you. “I am under the impression that there is from 40 to 60 per cent of the dairy cows diseased. I think that the dairymen are perfectly honest and do not know that their cows are diseased until s test is made. All dairymen have a perfect right to have a veterinary surgeon present dur- ing sn examination by the Board of Health. The board is only doing its duty to the people, and its members are simply carrying out their oath of office.” Dr. M. Williamson will advocate prompt and decisive action by the board in regard to the sale of consumptive cows. “In my opinion,” he said yesterday, “this matter should be dealt with rigor- ously. It is strougly possible that if cattle of that stamp are sold for humar food the germs of consumption will reach the peo- ple, and if the one who eats this meat is in a rigbt condition for the deposition of the germs in his system he is liable to be afflicted with consumption. : I think that any dairyman caught sell- ing diseased, tuberculous cattle to any butcher who buys that mest and exposes it for sale ought to be deait with crimi- nally. Meat inspectors now satfirate con- demned meat with coal oil so that it can- not be used forfood. Itis well known that condemned meat has been followed to the fertilizing works and taken back to Chinatown to be sold forfood. Soitisap- parent that an efficient force of inspectors is pecessary to watca the food preparea for consumption in the City. “With an extremely limited force of in- spectors this thing of selling tuberculous meat may be done for quite a long time before being detected. It argues strongly in favor of am ine appropriation, which we have'asked for to better protect the health of the City. “I have been informed that a band of sixty cattle in San Francisco were pri- vately inspectea for tuberculosisand driven over the line into San Mateo County. And the milk from that consumptive band is now coming into San Francisco for sale. 1could not ascertain to what dairy this band belongs. We can’t waich the county line, of course, but with rezard to killing sick cows :! seliing them for food we shall do whaf@fe can to put an end to it.” TWO S.AKEs uECIDED. Result of the Coursing at the Ingleside . Park Yesterday. The coursing at Ingleside: brought out a big crowd of leashmen, who enjoyed a fair day’s sport.

M 0LD-FISHIONED GE Oakland Ball-Players Defeat the Californias in a Hard- Hitting Contest. abies, haye | Local Men Do the Best Stick Work and Make Fewer Errors, but Are Shy on Ruas, There was & real o!d-fashioned game of bail at the Folsom-street grounds yester- day afternoon. The new Californias and the Osklands participated and the way they banged the ball about the lot was a caution to amateur pitchers. The Cali- fornias did the most of the swatting and made fewer errors than the Oaklands, but were deficient in runs when the game was over. Sykes’ batting was the feature of the game.- Out of five times at bat he made three hits, two of which were three-bag- gers. Wilds also did well, securing s triple and a single. For the Oaklands Agnew made a aouble and two singles out of five chances, but strange to say he failed to score a run. “Puagy” Arlett carried off the paimas s gatherer of tallies. He succeeded in safely making the circuit no less than four times. Russell, Donovan, Hardie and O’Neill made three each. Sykesscored three times for the local men. Although the Californias started off in the lead, the result of the game was never in doubt after the third inning. The score then swood 8 to 5 in their favor. They added another to their total in the fourth. four more in the fifth, one in the sixth, four in the eighta and two in the ninth. The Califoraias finished well, send- ing five men across the rubber in the seventh and four in the final inning, but were five runs shy when the last man was out. Following is the official score: Hit by pitcher—Sykes 3. Muilee 2, Russell 3 Struck ost—By Mullee 3. Russell 8 Time of game—3 hours. Umpire—Donahue. Presidio Park Game. The game at the Presidio Park yester- day wound up in s disagreement, and was awarded to the “Saturday Press’” team by a technical score of 9 t0 0. In the eighth inning the winners were well in the lead, when “The Calls’' captain protested s play, and becavse his protest was not allowed, called bis men from the field. Military Baseball.. A game of baseball played yesterday after- nocn at the Midwinter Fair Grounds between a team from Company A and a team from Com- any F of the First Infantry Regiment resnited 9n ;5flmry for Company F by a score of to 5. Company F will be willing to_meet s tesm from any other company in the National Guard of California. S S S SAN FRANCISCOS WON. They Played All Round the Stock- ton Home Team Yesterday. STOCKTON, Car., July 26.—San Fran- cisco played all around the Stockton base- ball men to-aay. The strong point of the Stockton nine has been its fielaing, but to- day the local men could not stop the ball with a scoop-uet, while the visitors did some of as pretty fie!ding as is seen on the baseball field. Sweeney, who played at third for San Francisco, made a jump fora high drive in the seventh, and puiled it down amid the cheers of the crowd. There was a good crowd at the game to- dsy, and it was willing to cheer for both the visiting and home team when any good work was done. In the seventh inmning there was a pretty double play by Stock- well Stockton’s left-fielder, to Babe White at second, and to Stewart at first. It was a long drive to deep center, and Stockwell scooped it in time. The Stocktons’ men hit Eber, but they played in bard luck every time, while the poor fielding of the Stocktons permitted the visitors to make many an unearned run. Pace, the Stocktons’ catcher, did some good work with the stick as usuai, and De Costa pitched good ball. Had he received any sort of support the score would bave told adifferentstory. ing is the score by innings: Follow- OAKLANDS. AR B IR SBEPO A B Donovaa, 1b. T R S T R e Hardie. = 1.

How- ard Carr was on the range with a fine 30- caliber Winchester magazine rifle of the latest pattern, which takesthe new smoke- | less cartridge. He was experimenting with a telescope attachment, and despite all that has been | stated about the new smokelessammuni- | tion carrying the steel-jacketed and the “‘soft-nosed” bullets being inaccurate on the 200-vard ranges, Carr made some very Eren_v patterns on the Coiumbia target. e aiso used black powder, but the nitro proved its equal for accuracy and the speed and penetration were much greater. hile many are loth to part with the old black powder, their decision as to meritsis due more to prejudice than actual tests and experiments. For an hour or so there was conside; able interest manifest in a fifty-shot caliber rifle match betweer E. Jacobson and Smith Carr for a small purse. The shooting was on the Columbia target, fifty yards, offiand. Several weeks ago these | two sharpshooters met and Jacobson | won. He gave Carr a return mnu:h,i | and when they met yesterday each was determined to win. Jacobson proved the | -:reriar of the two. He won by a score of 121 to Carr’s 144. Bv Creedmore count Jacobson'’s score was 229, One of the happies: marksmen on the | pistol range was A. H. Pape. While shooting in the Blanding medal match he broke ail previous pistol records with s | score of 1, 2, 1—4. In other words, two of | his bullets punctured the inch center and | the other shot was less tban half an inch | from the center. This pats him ahead of | Daiss in the ten best scores. In the ten best scores Pape stands 77, Daiss 82 and | Gorman yesterday pulled abead to 83.

These flags or centers entitle the marksmen to the cash prizes in each match stated. On the 200-yard range the Columbia’s members did considerable practicing, but only a few record scores were made. F.E. Mason ran up a practice string of such merit that it wasa pity it was not on a | record match. His bits were 1, 5, 5,6, 2, 3,4. 8, 3, total 41, which is a score that is | hard to beat.

ATTACKED B1 BIG BEAR Charles J. Collins Has a Start- ling Experience Near Pieta. : He Shot Bruin From a Tree and Was KEnocked Senseless by the Beast. A letter has been received from Charles J. Collins, telling of bis encounter with a bear while hunting deer in the canyons near Pieta, as follows: On Wednesday I started out ona deer humt with a few friends. The Vassar boys accom- panied us, and their dogs soon got on the irack of deer. We killed some does, and on the return home the hunters discovered the tracks of a bear, wnich the d gs foll Bruin was discovered hidden ledge of rocks, and toe dogs giving b to be near at hand when the dogs “"“pde Bear to seek safe and, of course, myseif as a second D.vy Crockett. aving :horougnly tesied the shooting quali- ties of my Winchester, 1 determined to make that 0id bear sick by filling his shaggy carcess uil of lead.

Miss Mary Hay Says Women Should Not Be Discrimi- nated Against. DECLARES THEM NUISANCES. Mrs. Emma Swest Says Lady Ten- ants Take Too Many Liberties About a House. ““No rooms rented to women” is the un- gallant legend emblazoned in black letter- ing on a huge yellow sign which adorns the front of a recently refitted lodging- house on Montgomery street above Bush. The fair sex o not like that sign. They glance at it superciliously as they trudge along on the opposite side of the streetand more than one lady bachelor has commit- ted berseif to the extent of saying it was “too mean for suything.” For the sizn is an indication of an un- welcome state of facts. The hitherto gallant metropolis of the West is taking on the customs of the effete East, and proprietors’ are beginning to discrimi- nate against the ladies. The Mcntgomery- street house is not the first to establish such a rule. More pretentious hostelries in the more fashionable partsof town have long since adopted the strictiy masculine rule, but they bave done so in a meek, apologetic sort of a way that has incited contempt rather than animosity. The Montgomery-street house is the first to fling forth boldiy the gage of battle, and now the ladies propose to look into this matter some, and see whether or no they are -to be.discriminated against at the boarding house as well asat the ballot- X. . Mrs. Nellie Holbrook Blinn, when told of the timidity of the downtown lodging- house keepers, said that such a rule would probably resait in trouble for some one. “l bave long known that women had trouble getting desirable quarters here,” she said. e have a friend, a widow of most estim- able character, who started out to seek lodgings. She was very much an- moyed by the persistent questioning of the pmg;ietreegs. and she almost despaired of finding a room. Being like Cmsar's wife, above suspicion, the inquiries of the | lodgi g-house keepers were inexpl her. Perhaps a few letters of recc dation would have made the matter all right, but she certainly had a most un- com{ortable time of it." Miss Mary Hay, National organizer of the suffrage society, expressed the opinion that the discrimination was unkind and unjust. “Women may be a trific more pariicular than men,” she said. “They naturaily would for they understand what housekeening is, and would probably demand tha: things be conducted right. ‘Women alone in a lodging-house might, too, demand favors which men would not ask, but what are we here for if it is noi to aid one another? Ido not believe women are sufficiently ‘fussy’ and disagreeable as tenants to warrant any lodging-house keeper in ruling against them.” Mrs. Emma Sweet, private secretary for Susan B Anthony, declared that there was nothing about the Montgomery-street lodging-house sign which made her bleod boil. *In New York unless a woman has the marks of Methusaleh upon her,” she declared, “it is next to impossible for her to get s room, and even then it is no easy matter. Women are a nuisance abous a lodging-house. They want to borrow a flatiron, then they wish to use the laundry; they utilize the kitchen stove, and iake liberties with the sewing-machine. All these things are an annoyance to a landiady, and I do not wonder they prefer men, who, as a usual thing, can pay more and demand less.” Mrs, Sweet recounted an interesting e. perience of her girlhood days in Roche: ter, New York, where only by the infl ence of tie utmost persuasion she was able to get a room in a desirable family. The proprietor of the offending house deciares that, being a single man, he is very partial to ladies, but desiring 1o keep his house in good repute he did not care to take upon himseif the task of passing upon the moral attributes of lady ten- nants. Heexpress-d profound ignorance of their being nuisances about a house. THE HANDBALL COURTS. Ryan and Rodgers Defeat MecNeill and McDonaid, Which Decides a Long- Standing Dispute. Handball was booming yesterday, the courts being crowded. At the San Fran- cisco court a match that excited the great- est interest was played between Phil Ryan, the proprietor of the court, and D. Rodg- ers against M. MeNeill aud M. McDonald. There had been a long-standing dispute as to which was the better team, and yester- day was settled upon to decide the matter. The match was won by Ryan and Rodgers after some brilliant playing on bota sides. Ryan bad the wisdom to spend Friday and Saturday in Marin County, and the pure ozone of Tocaloma and Nicasio bad a wonderful effect upon him. McNeill trained on French dinners, and before the match was balf through he feit sorry for it and promised his backers that he would never do it again. P. T. Donneily, the amateur champion, and D.

L ST A ] The Alameda Cricket Eleven Defeated by Over Sixty Rans at There was only one cricket match for | the Hunter-Harrison cup played yester- | day. It was between the Alsmeds and | Bohemian .clubs, was played at Alameda | and resulted in a victory for the Bo- hemians by 63 runs on the final innings. Captain Hogue of the Alamedas won the toss and sent his opponents in. Thanks principally to the bowling of Sloman, the scoring was anything but rapid or formidable, and had it not been for the ever invincible William Robertson, who put up 57 with his wonted noncha- lance, the side would have made no show- ine at all. As it was, the total reached | only 85 and things looked favorable for the Alamedas. Bot the uncertainty of the game is pro- verbial. As with the bat, so with the ball | the Bohemian chief did deadly havoc. Not one Alameds man attained double figures, and the entire side was dismissed for 22 runs. The bowling analysis tells the story more graphically than could columns of words. Following on, the Alamedas, thanks to Hood, mlfis 3 more respectable record, but the 96 runs compiled did not affect the result—so much in favor of their foes.
