SHORT OF GAS.
GARBAGE AND NIGHT SOIL ACCUMULATING
ON THE HILLTOP,
Because the CrematOrY Hasn't Fuel Enough to
Keep 1t Running-An Explanation from
the Natural Gas Company.

A special session Of the Council Com
mittee on Health was called for last
evening, before the session of Council,
for the purpose of investigating the
complaint Of Superintendent Dunn, OF
the crematory, that there was not
enough natural gas delivered at the
furnace to enable him to destroy the
large amounts Of garbage and night soil
daily dumped at the crematory, and
that the stuff was accommodating at a
fearful rate. There were present, in
addition to the members of the Com
mittee, Health Officer Spragg and
Superintendent Dunn, on behalf Of the
city, and General Alfred Caldwell and
Col. George B. Caldwell, of counsel for
the Gas Company, and Superintendent
Harry Deiters.
1t was stated, on behalf Of the city,
that fifty barrels of night soil were lying
at the crematory, and that garbage was
rapidly accumulated, being dumped on
the hill top at some little distance from
the furnace. The supply Of gas was
stated to be very short, and there had
not been enough for week or ten days
past.
On behalf Of the Company Mr. Deiters
made an explanation OF the situation.
He said the Company was working day
and night in the gas field, making the
changes in its lines made necessary by
the introduction of pumps to furnish a
better supply of gas to the city, and
that the work might be completed by
Friday and would certainly be done by
Monday next. The pressure on the
Company's lines had run down to ten
pounds in the ten-iuch mains and
twelve pounds in the twelve-inch main,
and no more gas could be given the Gre
matory or anyone else until the work
now in progress was completed. MIR.
Deiters made rough outline diagram,
explaining the situation TO the members
OF the Committee.
Mr.. O'Leary was in favor of enforcing
the provisions Of the compromise ordi-
nance, adopted by Council last winter,
which provided that whenever the Gas
Company should fail to deliver gas in
sufficient quantities to the crematory
and City Hall, that the old ordinance,
requiring free gas for all the city's
works and olnstitutions, should be in
full force and effect. Mr.. OLeary evil
IDENTIFY thought there was some under
hand business on the part OF the Gas
Company towards the city, and he and
MIR. Deiters had several spirited tits
over sundry little side issues relating to
recent natural gas history in this vicin-
ity. Finally Mr.. 0'Leary made a mo-
ton to instruct the City Solicitor to en-
force the provisions Of the ordinance,
but failed Of a second. After some
further debate Of not very courteous
nature, resolution was made and
adopted adjourning the Committee over
until Monday evening, by which time,
IL the supply OF gas was not up to
standard, action was to be taken by
the city.
This morning Mr.. Deiters, Health
officer Spragg, and one or two MEM
bers of the Committee, will 90 up to
the crematory to see just what amount
OF gas there is available. Meanwhile
the night soil and garbage will go on
accommodating.
