NEW-YORK ROBBED OF HEALTH AND MONEY
OVER $500 DAY SPENT FOR WATER III OUR
MuLK-FOUR MILLIONS LOST TO THE ME-

WHERE, HOW, AND BY WHOM ADULTER-
ATED-NANEs OF THE GUILTY DEALERS
FARMERS AND CONSUMERS THE VICTIMS or
MIDDLEMEN-A STARTLING CHAPTER FOR
HOUsEKEEPERs AND THE HEALTH BOARD.
That this community is paying high prices for
very poor article called milk all know. That the
farmers sell good pure milk for low prices has been
established by proper inquiry and cannot be doubted
These Inquiries have further revealed that there are
sold here daily about 5000 quarts more Of lso-
called milk than actually comes to market, and
that this is adulteration chiefly Of water.
Thus New-Yo housekeepeIs are not only swindled
daily out of about 1880 or over S27OO,OOO year,
for an impure article of food but public health is
seriously imperiled The consumers generally have
long been convinced that the milk they drink il
watered and arc anxious to know the extent OF tho
adulteration, the names of those middlemen whose
employees dilute it, and the place where IL is watered
This public demand has manifested itself inoreas-
ingy for some months past through various commu-
nications sent to THE TRIBUNE from time TO time
and in other ways and responsive 10 the
general demand for information, The TRIBUNE as
signed reporters TO the duty of making thorough
investigation Of the whole subject, sparing neither
expense pains TO get at all the facts and with
directions to present them, with indubitable evil
dence before the public for consideration. The re-
suit Of that inquiry extending through several
weeks, made in company with officers Of The society
for the Prevention OF Cruelty to Animals and other
authorized officials, and with the assistance Of Dr.
Chandler, chemist OF the Board Of Health, is given
below as briefly as possible. 1t VIII be seen that

The Ne,c- York Herald correspondent at Zan-

Arabs OF UjU left that place the 18th Of January
last and arrived at Unyemwemba on the 9Th Of Febru-
airy. He reported to shek Ben Nab important per-
sonage in Unyemwomba, that Mr. Stanley had reached
UiU, 30 days before he CfcjdD left, by circuitous
route which he compelled to take on account OF
troubles on the regular caravan route At the time OF
Mr. Sanieys arrival, Dr. Livingstone wasnot at UjJi
he had been travelling in the neighboring eoun-

Nyanza but at the time OF the departure
Of seyd Ben Majid, Dr. Livingstone had arrived at Uj

saade, who left Unyemwemba on the sh Of February,
and reached Zanzibar the 2d Of April Abdallah Ben
Nasib and the slave saade both seen by The Herald
correspondent at Zanzibar. Some consider it strange
that Stanley If at U when seyd Ben Maid left did not
send letters by him to Unyemwemba. This is fully ex
planned by the Circumstance that Seyd Ben Maid did
not intend to 90 Unyemwemba when he left Ujji, but
started with armed force to fight against native
chief named Misambo !beween these places and only
came to UnyemweInba because his lighting operations
