UnWhoIesome Meat.

Another case of offering diseased meat for sale
mas been discovered, and Stephen NJ. Crawford,
On plea OF guilty, was fined $40 with costs,
yesterday morning by the mayor. Last week
Crawford delivered three quarters of beef to
Charles Schreokengos, No. 10 MaloEt avenue,
and upon inspection the next day by Health
officer Griffin whose attention was called to its
foul condition, the whole was confscated, re-
sulting In Crawford's arrest. The quarters were
from cattle that had been tramped down and
crippled while being shipped to market, and
were in most revolving condition, being bruised
and bloody, while modification was in an ad-
vanced stage. The three quarters have been
placed on exhibition in the health Office, and are
regarded as argument enough for special legis-
latlon upon the sale of unwhofesome meat
Crawford will be prosecuted in the Criminal
Court upon charge similar to the one under
which he was fined yesterday. II is said that
the Mayor would have made the penalty as
heavy as his jurisdiction would permit, but he
was not aware of the nature OF the Otfense az
the time the case came up for trial.

Indiannpolis,s Last Year,s Grnwth.

Estimates made by the compllers of the forth
coming city directory show that the population
of Indianapolis increased during the last year
about $500, which, however, is a much smaller
gain than was made in the year previous. The
reason asoribed is that there were no important
manufactures, employing any large number of
laborers, established during the year, while in
1881 the number OF residents was materially in
creased by the opening OF the car-shops, the oil
mills and several other manufactures, which
brought hundreds OF workingmen, with their
families, to the city.

The Ice Cron.

Interviews with a number of ice dealers show
the prospects for good crop this season to be
exceedingly hattering, The product is not as
heavy as usual, but is Of mich better quality,
which Is due TO the absence of heavy snowfalls.
Thus far not very much has been cut, owing to
the lateness of warm weather, but large quanti-
ties of excellent quality are being, harvested
daily. Very little can be determined rega riding
the probable price next summer, but the unani-
nous opinion is that prices will not be higher
than last season, and il there is an average
amount OF cold weather during the remainder of
the winter, this very necessary commodity can
be purchased at n lower rate.
