Health Committee of Supervisors Prepares. to Take'Action. Stablemen who are putting up build- ings regardless of permits or the city ordinances will be brought up with a round turn by the Board of Super- visors if they do not comply with the regulations laid down for them. An- drew M. Wilson, a member of the health and hospital committee, at a meeting held yesterday morning, de- clared that the stablemen are not complying with the law and he wanted them to understand that they would not be allowed to pursue their own sweet way. H “I have a stable myself,” he said, “and-I can fully appreciate that we are in need of stables, but there is no need of placing them in the midst of the residence district. It depreciates | the valie of property ‘and the stables | are a nuisance. The present ordinance does not permit the erection of stables unless the sanction of the property owners for 200 feet on -each side of | the proposed -stable is secured. - This ordinance is not being observed.” The matter came under discussion when a protest was received against the erection of a stable-for the Gold- berg-Bowen Company on California street between Devisadero’and Scott. Louis C. Smith filed the protest,. and the entire committee expressed itself as being opposed to a stable in that locality, and promised an immediate | investigation. K | L. C.

Pearlman, accused of having sold whisky «n & drugstore at Bush and Devisadero streets to one John Nicholson ' that evolved the exchange of compliments between magistrate - and policeman. John Nicholson swore that a lady camp: er in Hamilton square asked him to go to the drug store and purchase for her one dollar’s worth of medicine, and that he did so, receiving in return for the dollar two unlabeled flasks of alleged whisky. When he emerged from the store he was accosted by Patrolman Mahoney, who confiscated the bottles, escorted him back to the store and ar- rested the man who had sold them. Asked by the Judge if he knew the lady who entrusted him with the dol- lar, John Nicholson replied in the nega- tive. Nor did she specify the kind of medicine she wanted him to buy for her. Neither did the defendant ask if he wanted any particular kind of medicine. Indeed, the defendant did not say anything, but silently took the dollar and passed out the flasks. John' Nicholson swore, also, that he once was in the-saloon business at Vallejo, and _since April 18 has been nursing his right ‘hand, ' which was \severely injured several days prior’ to asked consideration of the ordinance, | which proposes to give the Super-| the stables. Mr. White explained that thirty-six out of forty-one of the stables. he represented were destroyed | by the fire.and that it would be necs- | sary to make some concessions.

Under the supervision of Dr. D.'F. Ragan, health officer, a campaign is to be waged 'against the sale of all small fish, oysters, clams and shrimps. There will be’ a . careful inspection of these foods, and they will be driven from the market, as“it’is believed that they are| infected with typhoid germs and are dangerous to the residents of the city. The public has been informed in the| past of the danger attached to using city water and food stuffs, including | milk, but the warfare against the| small fish, as they are classified, is a| new departure. | “I am satisfied,” said the health | officer, ‘“that frequent sources of | typhoid cases are from the eating of ! clams, oysters and the.like. Particu-) larly at this time of the year, when | they are spawning, they are less able| to resist the fever germs, and will | communicate them to the people eating them. All these fish are found in the lower bay., where much of the seepage | of the city is drained, and the matter of inspecting them will be taken up immediately. Some experiments along this line will be made.” Dr. Ragan and Dr. J. R. Devereux, the officer on duty in General Greely's office in connection with the sanitary work being done by the military, held a long conference yesterday morning regarding statistics referring to These statistics will | contain data showing the spread of the infection and will be valuable in the future in studying the disease and the manner in whicl it spreads.

Marks will have to explain | himself before he is permitted to pro-| ceed with the work. ~ ~ | A large delegation of men and WO- | men faced the committee to tell Chair- | man Lonergan and his associates just | why there was objection to the estab- | lishnient of an ungdertaking establish- | ment by Carew English at. 1618 | Geary, street. The objection was on | the generzal principle that the residents dislike undertakers in their immediate vieinity. English said that he was burned out in the business sectiop and'| did not propgse to stay at the present | location longer than neécessary. When the protestants said they wanted that vicinity kept entirely for residents English pulled a list which -went to| show that in the same block can be found a coal yard, Chinese washhouse, hay and grain vard and Japanese cleaning establishment. The under- taker sald all he wanted was fair play. Action was promised next Mon- day. £ The committee took up the report of the City Engineer in regard to the | sanitary reduction “works, in which it is stated that the works are in poor shape.

The brick which injured C. Teubert of | 1005 Shotwell street last Tuesday did | not fall from the Claus Spreckels build- ing, as was stated in a local paper. The accident happened on Stevenson street and the man was struck from a brick which fell from the rear wall of the Kamm building.

Same Clever The defendant disclaimed having either sold or given the bottles to John Nicholson or any other person, and added ‘that no unlabeled bottles were sent out ‘of the store. The latter state- ment was corroborated- by Arthur M. Scammel, proprietor of the store, who added that he had nmever seen John Nichalton until that person - entered the establishment with the policeman. Both the prosecution and the defense announced that their testimony was all in, and then the Judge proceeded to. sum up. “There is one feature of this case that impresses me as unique,” he said, “and that is the willingness—I might say, the eagerness—of the com- plaining witness to-disclose where he really procured the itquor found in his possession. He does not say that he (got it in Oakland, mor does he allege that tt was given to him by a philan- thropic stranger whom he met on the street. No, he not oaly led the police- man to where he-clalmed to have pur- chased it, but he afterward swore to complaint charging the man arrested with having sold it to him. Then— Patrolman Mahoney's was committed at that juncture. He interrupted the Judge by declaring, in loud tone, that he:had something to say in justice to the complaining wit- ness. Asked why he had not said it while he was testifying, he- broadly hinted that he had ot been given op- portunity to say it. Then he was re- quested to resume the witness stand and say it, and he d\@ so. “When the complaining witness and me went to the store,” he averred, “this man (pointing to Mr. Scammel) said, ‘The next fellow who gets liquor in this store will either be a —— of a good fellow or a —— ' That was what he said, and that's what the court prevented me from testifying when I wanted to do so.” A g 3 The Judge's retort has been quoted. Mr. Scammel was recalled, and he flatly pronounced the-officer's assertion: un- qualifiedly false.
