TO REBUILD STOCK-YARDS.
Pennsylvania Company Will Make
Extensive Enlargement.

The Pennsylvania Railroad Company
will commence early next week the re-
building OF Its stock-yards at the foot
OF Sixth street and the North River.
Jersey City, which were destroyed by fire
just two weeks ago to-day. The new
yards will be much more extensive than
the old ones, so as to also accommodate
the Union Stock-Yard and Market Com
pany, now located at he foot OF West
Sixty-hrst street, New, York. which Com
pany has made arrangements with the
Pennsylvania Railroad to transfer its
business to the Jersey City shore.
The plans for the new yards provide
for slaughter and ice-houses of a much
larger capacity than the old ones. The
old rendering works at the yards will
not be rebuilt. and that branch OF the
business will be removed to a distant
point, where the attendant odors will not
annoy residents Of Jersey City and ferry
boat passengers as they did formerly.
The last of the carcasses OF the sheep
and cattle destroyed in the fire was re-
moved last Tuesday. and the yards hav-
ing been thoroughly disinfected are no
longer the menace to health that they
threatened to become.
No less than $500 carcasses were re-
moved from the yards. and nearly as
many more were completely burned UP
in the fire. But for the refrigerators
and many of the slaughter-houses and
pens having been built with double
floors thousands of the carcaeses would
have fallen into the river and caused a
great pollution Of the water.

FEARED THE HEALTH BOARD.
Landlord and Tenant Did Not Re-
port the Diphtheria.

Just the way Brooklynites feel towards
the Board OF Health was exemplifled in
dispossess proceedings that came up in
Justice Petterson's court, Brooklyn, this
morning.
William Roth, as the owner Of large
tenement-house at 1874 Moore street.
brought proceedings through the consta-
BILE to dispossess Carl Enschelon for
non-payment of trent. Enschelon asked
the Court for time, on account OF the
very recent death OF his child. which he
said had died yesterday of diphtheria.
Justice Peterson expressed surprise
that Roth should want to remove the
tenant, whereupon Roth said he had
rented the apartments to other parties
who were ready to move In.
What" said His Honor, has not the
house been Guaranteed? Did you not
notify the Board OF Health Of the pres
ence Of diphtheria In the neighborhood? 2"
Both Roth and Enschelon candidly ad-
mitted that they had not, as they had
been advised that the interference OF the
Health Board would be disastrous on
account of Its high-handed measures
The neighbors preferred to run the risk
Of contagion rather than be interfered
with by the Board.
Justice Peterson heartily sympathized
with that view of the case, but since the
presence OF contagious disease had been
made known officially he considered 1t
his duty to notify the health authorities
and adjourn the case until they could be
heard from.
