"Annie Woodfeld, you're charged with

after night, making great deal of noise;
what have you to say?" asked Prosecutor

CITY HALL NOTES.

In q recent consultation between Admins
TRAITOR Behan and MIR. Richard Flower, cattle
inspector at the Slaughter-House, relative to
the sale Of diseased meats Id the public mar
kets, the latter named gentleman asserted
that the diseased cattle were not slaughtered
at the Slaughter House; that he not only in
spected tho cattle before they were killed, but
also viewed and passed the meat after 1t was
dressed
After considering the matter, Administra-
tor Bchan has decided that the only way to
prevent the Strengthening of cattle outside of
the Slaughter House, and thereby prevent the
sale Of meat which has not been inspected, Is
for Mr.. Flower to Issue certificates to butch
ers, the certificates to be shown on the de-
mand Of Mr.. Behan's officers. He has sug-
gested this method to Nj. Flower In COM
munication.
Under the supervision of Administrator
Behan work on the wharves In the Second and
Third Districts will be commenced In short
time. The present projecting wharves at
different portions Of the districts named are
to be repaired and strengthed and connected
with each other by q gangWay twelve feet
wide, thus making one continuous wharf.
