THE CITY CRENlTORY.
Work Has Been Temporarily Suspended On
Account OF "A Petition.

The work on the city crematory has been
temporarily abandoned by an order Of L. T..
Christian. chairman of the Committee on
Health. The City Council had given, the
authority to proceed with It's work. ana the
present stoppage is made at the request OF the
Board of Aldermen. who desire 20 investigate
a petition sent b. them by some citizens living
in the proposed vicinity of tue crematory.
The entire subject has been referred 10
the Committee on Health. which Will meet on
Friday to consider the subject.
The Committee on Health finds itset IN
rather peculiar situation. The county mas
Dersstently refused To allow the city to De
post a particle Of garbage or refuse within
their territory. and without the ciematory
there virtually exists no proper dispOsitll Nor
this disease-breeding substance which nat
urally and necessarily appertains to every city
OF any SIZE.
The petition from few score Of people
now checks the progress OF sure and eth
cient remedy for an evil which, Doubtless
entails upon our people great disease and
death.
The petition rectes that there must assur-
eddy arise from the crematory an Odor or
gases which would render their present
homes unenviable. This. however, is posi-
lively denied by those who are engaged IN the
construction, and also has not proven tact
in the numerous instances in which other
cities have adopted this method Of efectually
disposing of their refuse
when the death rate of this city is brought
into comparison with the other municipalities
of the world, there il conclusive proof OF the
urgent need OF such remedies as are now being
attempted. and even if 1t should be admitted
that there could Justly be found grounds Of
complaint by those who live IN the neighbor-
hood Of the crematory, it yet remains 3 vital
question as 10 whether or not the city should
be deprived Of what now seems to be its most
advantageous outlet for its relief from Its
plague.
ful consideration Of our people, and tie ac-
ton Of the Committee on Health will be
looked for with unusual interest.
