The Chemist of the Department Makes Another Report on Adulterated Fruits. Mayor Phelan called the attention of the members of the Board of Health at yesterday’s meeting 1o the fact thai the law regarding the burials in cemeteries within the City limits is being constantly violated. He stated that in spite of the fact that the Board of Supervisors had by ordinance prohibited the sale of lots the cemelery associations had paid no atten- tion to the matter, and asked the board whether it had ever given any ex of its feelings regarding burials within the City limits. He said that he objected to the cemeteries because they barred the march of progress, and asked the board to cousider the matter with a view to taking acton from a sanitary point of view. The memters agreed to do so. Dr. Williamson of the Hospital Committee stated that only & little more than $13,000 remained in the City and County Hospital fund for the rest of che fiscal year, and that a hortage of $6000 was certain, He ventured an opinion that tne deticit wuuld have to be made up by public sub- scription. Mayor Phelan stated that the board had better ot put much faith in public generosity, but practice more economy. Dr. Williamson, chairman of the Committee on Epidemics and Contugious Diseases, reported that since April 1 twen- ty-nine cases of diphtheria, including fifteen from the Children's Hospital, had Leen reported, and called attention to the tavid increase over the rate of last montn. He also directed the attention of the board to the fact that since January 1 there had been twenty-one deaths from membranous croup and stal that it was a fair presumption th called croup were in reality diphtheria, He made a_recommendation, wuich was adopted, that in fature physiciana ve compelled to report all cases of mem- branous croup, aud that the use of steril- ized swabs be required as in cases of diph- theria, in order that the true nature of the disease may be ascertained. In regard to contagious diseases in the public schools Dr. Wiiliamson reported as follows: My attention has been called to the fact that the principals and teachers of the public schools are negligent in the maiter of refus- ing admittance o the schools of pupils whose homes are under quarantine lo‘: contagious diswases. Tt has been reported at the Heaith Office that the principal of the Denman School sllowed two pupiis to be admitted to ihat school in whose residence there was a case of scarletina’at the time of their admiss:on. | would offer as & suggestion in ihis instance alth officer be instructed to address i communication to 2 tendent of Public Instruction, caliing h lentlon o such irfogularities ‘on the part at of cipals and teachers. railroad companies, calling their atten- tion to the law providing that permits must be obtained for the shipping of the bodies of deceased persons out of this City, and also that a fee of $10 is payable | for each of such permits. The statement | was made that this law had been openly | violated in a large number of instances | . On the reccommendation of the Ambu- lance Station and Receiving Hospital Committee Drs. E. E Hill and R. E. Hartley were appointed ambulance sur- geons at $75 per month, each to take office onJune 20. A recommendation by the same commitiee that a_vote of thanks be tendered the Board of Harbor Commis- sioners for its co-operation with the Health Department in establishing a: ambulance staiicn and building on the water front was adopted. | Drs. Hill ana Hartley are both well- known young physicians, the latter hay- h;z Feon an interne at the Receiving Hos- pital. Dr. Fitzgibbon, chairman of the com- mittee on nuisances, reported that ihe charges of unsanitary condition made azainst the National Fertiiizer Company, in an anonymous communication ade dres-ed to the Mayor, were without foun- dation, > communication signed by numerous residents of the Excelsior Homestead re- guested the board to co-operate with the Board of Supervisors in improving the sanitary condition of dairy ranches in that locality. _The chemist of the board reported on fity-nine samples of preserved fruits con- sisting mainly of jellies. Nine samples were found to l‘mu, eleven adulterated within the meaning of the pure-food law, and twenty-tive fraudulent counterfeits. The report was referred to the pure food committee, which will take action look- ing toward the arrest and prosecation in cases where drastic measures are deemed advisable and appropriate. WERE NOT MADE STARS, Would-Be Thespians Sue Frederick Be. 1asco for the Retura of their Tuition, Belasco’s School of Dramatic Art had an airing in Justice Barry’s court yester- day and came out victorious in its legal struggle. Arinur Sears and Mrs. Nellie Covington, brot her and sister, eniered the school in the lope of becoming stars and ing remuaerative empioyment. They did not become leading lights in the histrionic profession, nor did they find big salaries following them around, and they sued for the return of iheir tuition, claiming that Frederick Belasco, the proprietor, had promised to secure them positions in the Alcazar. The testimony was not clear on this point, and inasmuch a5 it was shown that they had received tuition the Justice gave judgment for the defendant. RS ——— Comyns Must Serve a Year.

A N-w Attorney, Whose Sslarv May Not B: Forthcoming — Garret McEnerney’s Opinion. It is quite likely that the members of the Board of Health will have to pay out of their own pockets the expenses of that littie junketing trip to Sacramento during the last session, when several employes went along to try to lobby through a num- ber of bills that the board wanted passed. According to the demands presented to the Audilor the trip cost about $375, but the bills were not itemized. Mr. Broderick refused to sign the de- mands on the ground that there was no law or autnority for such expenditures. At the same time he refused to sign o de- mand for $200, as payment for & set of engrossed resolutions presented to Attor- ney J. B. Renstein, who, though not in any way connected with the board, gave his services gratuitousiy in the planning of the pure food crusade. This bill the members will undoubtedly have to pay out of their own resources. Yesterday at the meeting of the board Garret W. McEnerney, the attorney of the board, rendered the following opinion in the matter of the bills in response to a request from Dr. Morse: Dr.J. F. Morse, Board of Health, City Hau, City—MY DEAR STR: In_answer to your letier of the 151h inst. in relation to the two de- mands now pending before the Auditor, namely, one for about$375, expenses incur; at Sacramento during the session of the Legis- lature, and the other for $200, expended in engrossing resolutions, I beg 1o that in my judgmeat veither 'demand constitutes a charge against the City and County. 1t is undoubtedly true that the expenses in- curred by the members of the board and by its officers in attempling (o promote the passage of legislation which wouid be conducive ihe general welfare is a maiter of ex that might be properly borne by the pubiic funds. ‘The theory of the matter, however, is that it is no part of the official duty of a pub- lie officer 1o sitempt to secure the passage of necessary iegisiation. It is the theory that all necessary lexislation will find its origin in the legislative depariment, and that il is not Ay SRR t a The other demanu, I am very sorry to say, I @0 not believe can be made the subject of &n appropriation from the public funda. ‘hese are my views ou the subject. Ihave no doubt of their correctness, but if you de- sire it we can test the matter in the courts, and I'shail be glad 10 comply with any desire you may have in the matter. Very truiv, GARRET W. MCENERNEY. Dr. Morse was appointed a committee to consult with Mr. McEuerney on the sub- t. h?nun the board took another action that may cost it & great deal of money before it is through with. It passed the following resolutton WHEREAS, The Board of Health of and Con:‘l’y’fl!

And be it further Resolved, That the compensation of such As- sistant Attorney be and hereby is fixed at the sum of two hundred (§200) doliars per month. Mayor Phelan objected. He wanted to know the board's autbority for making such an appointment, where the money t0o pay the new emplove *was to come from and why the attorney now in office ata salary of $3000 a year does not do the work ? He was not satisfied with the explana- tions given and yoted against the measure, The board will run against a more seri- ous snag when it tackles Auditor Broder- ick. That official says that unless heis shown some better 1eason for signing than be has at present the assistant attor- ney’s demands will not receive his signa- ture. “This board is merely making places,” he said, “and I am going to stop the drains on the treasury if possible. There is neither necessity nor authority for this new official as far as I can see at present, and if they want him so bad let them pay him themselves.” THE WATER WAS GOOD. School Directors Visit the South Fran- cisco Primary on a Tour of In- . vestigation. Chairman Waller of the Heaith Com- mittee of the Board of Health, accom- anied by S-hool Directors Barrington, | e Gallagher, inspected the Souti San Francisco Primary School at Hunters Point yesterday to ascertain whether there was any merit in a complaint recentl lodg ed with the Board of Health by E. i Dierks, Dierks was at one time the janitor of the school, but was removed by’ ihe pres- ent board and replaced by Mrs, Craig, a deserving woman who lives in the neigh- borhood of the school. He stated in his complaint that the water used for the school was not fit to drink. The Directors found the water to be perfectly pure and good, and that Dierks, while janitor, had at times drawn water from the well for the use of the pupils. They came to the conclusion that the complainant was actuated by spite be- cause of his discharge from the depart- ment. e Avalon Mining Company Enjoined. L. M. King and E. J.
