The supply Committee OF the Kings County Board
of Supervisors met yesterday afternoon to hear evil
dence regarding the alleged auteration of the
denscd milk supplied to tho county institutions.
Recently the contract expired, and the com
pany put in bid for supplying the milk
at seventeen cents per quart. Charles Meyers filed
protest against awarding the contract to them. He
had previously put in bid to furnish condensed milk
al the rate Of sixteen and quarter cents quart
Counsellor Ready appeared in his behalf, and the
complainant himself testified that be was in the cIn-
ploy of the milk company The goods for
daily consumption and private trade were he said,
put up in forty-quart cans, not sugared. These
were the goods, he testified that should be supplied
10 tho Kings county institutions instead The com.

pany he said had furnished spoiled sugared
milk that could not be sold by grocers.
When not adulterated with the decomposed sugared
stuff every thrty-iour thirtydve quarts was. he
claimed diluted with five or six quarts of water.
Peter Oliver. superintendent of the Condensed
Milk Company, testified in a similar strain
Peter Faraday, a driver for the company, tes-
tided TO the milk having been adulterated
with water. and to his having mixed IL;
he didn't know where the adulterated milk went
Charles 4. Haight testified that he delivered the
milk the county buildings at Flatbush and it
aduterated in the Office every morning before being
put in the cans. Mr.. Howe. president OF tho com
pany, testified that the milk was watered in New
York before being sent to the institutions. the milk
manufactured being above the standard; to the
best of his knowledge no milk returned as UNIT for
use by grocers had been mixed with it; he said tho
contract did not oblige him to furnish unwatered
milk.
Counsellor Ready argued against the reaward Of
tho contract. Mr.. Howe "a reply charged that
Meyers was not to be believed. The committee then
went into executive session to determine upon the
award OF the contract.
