CoNsUsroATIos FROM CAPT. HALPIs on GARBAGE-
The following communication from Capt Halpn Of the
Fs; Ward Police relative the thro wing of garbage in
the sTeos of his District and the shameful negligence Of
the garbage carts in not appearing frequently to
carry away the filth and garbage which accumuates 80
rapidly IN the tenemen. houses particularly Of his Ward
was made on Wednesday to Chief Matsel. He says:
al induced from q feeling of duty respectfllly To
call your attention to the consideration of the following
suggestions respecting the Police regulations of this
District:
al have experienced considerable difficulty in enforcing
General Order 49, relating TO the ordinance concerning
the casting of garbage in the streets In the first place.
as You will readily perceive, i: is almost impossible to
arrest The actual delinquent though the officer has
wi'ntssed the commission Of the offense, generally
speaking in fact almost without exception in this District
all such substances reach the street from what are eener
ally termed tenement houses, and before the officer
get to The offender that individual is within the house and
concealed ana out OF the tenements would be
vain to expect the officer ascertain the real party to
be sure we can report under the ordinance the occupants
OF the premises but this presupposes that the officer has
knowedge OF the premises out Of which the garbage
cast but we all know that parties about volatong law
will rarely do so in the of officer whose duty
It'll to see that they punished There is certainly
much hardship inreporfing party violating ord
nance in this respect merely because neghbor has
cast garbage in the street. and in order to screen them
selves has deposited before adjoining house, but the
officer compelled to report person when he finds
garbage nthe street and, not unlikely, in many
ports the wrong person and though he should for
tunaely he correct be is entirely unable to prove it
against the party complained Ct.
Enforcing the ordinance presents many other oblec-
fonable features especially regards this District The
Inhabitants chiefly reside IN large houses which contain
perhaps, on an average from twenty to thirty families
huddled together in single building, with little
ysrdroom the landlord building every inch of ground
so that his income be augmented and yet those
people under pain of Violating the ordinance must keep
his offensive substance within their houses until such time
the garbage cart pays them visit and indeed little
Lance car be reposed on that, it frequently has failed
to come to places in this District In the of
two three dsys in fact during The week just elapsed il
has not paid single visit 10 Trinity-pace. During this
in their apartments, nor could the united garbage Of
twenty families remain in back entry awaiting the tardy
coming of the garbage cart to be allowed to rot and infect
the neieborhood with some pestie. disease 1t certain
ly would 10 her allow it to be cast into the street
whore the action of the cool air would retard its corup
ton would remain on the street as long as on the
private promises for the chances that the streets wOud
lie cleaned before the garbagecar made Its appearance
if may judge from the present appearance of the streets
which the west side Of the Ward are far cleaner than
they been for several years past owing to the efforts
of the Street Inspector of this District.
"The cuverts in this District have been for time
back in most deplorable condition, most OF them having
been completely stopped up to entirely prevent the
