A few days sincs the REGISTER publish

(meaning the Republicans want TO make
that reduction, (" then it will forfeit $50 to

On the other hand, if it can

the opposing parties are TO

Mr.. Chance or his friends accept the chsl-
lenge? The REGISTERS authority ia an
honorable, upright gentleman. If any one
wants to test the quality of his steel they
have an opportunity. Perhaps the too
talkative Mr. Chance would like q 90 at
him?
In the meanwhile We reiterate that Mr..
Mahlon Chance, an agent OF the Republic

~versation to O manufacturer of this yicin-

ssrHE HIDE HOUSE -
The Health Committee Has q Long Wrest
with the Question.

The Health Committee Has q Long wrestie
With the Question.
The Council Committee on Health met
at the CITY Hail last evening and had a
long seanoe upon two Of tie standing mat
tiers before that body and Council-the new
buildipg of the Butchers Association, OF
the sast end of Sixteenth street, and the
crematory building.
The Sixteenth street building CANT up
through the consideration of the ordinance
presented by the Central Glass Company
aud other parties living and doing BUSH
ness in the neighborhcod Of Sixteenth and
McCulloch streets, its provisions forbid
ding the rendering Of tallow or the sailing
OF hides within the limits OF the city.
This ordinance first made its appearance
at q largely attended meetiug.of the Com
mittee Oh Ordinances, held in July, in
which speeches pro and con were made by
N. b. Scott, Captain B. B. Devener,
L. F. Stifel, and Others. The paper
went thence to Council, where 1t was read
once in the First Branch, and referred to
the Committee on Health. The Committee
was addressed last night by several gentle
who were opposed to the operation OF
q hide-saltiDg establishment on the loca-
ton of the new building, while it was
pointed out, on the other hand, that the
Butchers' Association did not propose to
do any tallo2 rendering on the premises,
and that they would 30 conduct the bust
ness of sailing hides, as to render it in
offensive to the psopls of the neighborhoot.
A majority Of the committee thoughtthe
ordinance would be a good thing, never
and it was recommended to Council
for passage.
the question of the Ie oair of the crema-
tory building was then taken up and talked
over for a long time. The result was that
it was referred to o subcommittee, consist
of Captain Davis, the Health Officer,
and Sup. Serig, for report as to cost, plans,
etc.
