AGAINST the NEASUR
The Bill in Regard to the Seaier of Weights
and lie sures Before the Committee.

The Committee on Counties. Cities and
Towns met last evening at 2l5 Governor
street 10 consider Mr. Crump's bill re-
pealing the existing law I'm regard 10 the
duties OF the sealer of weights and
measures Mr.. Fentress, of Portsmouth,
was in The chair.
Mr.. Crump explained that all over the
state. with the exception of Richmond,
the law provided for an inspection Of
weights and measures every three years
white In this city the inspection was
made annually. He presented a petition
signed by many prominent business men
who asked Tor the passage OF the bill.
A petition was presented by Capt
Cyrus f.. Bossieux the sealer OF weights
and measures, in opposition to the bill.
Mr.. Munce, the manager Of Kingan
Bros packinghouse. spoke in favor Of
tho present law and stated at his re-
quest his scales, of which he had eight.
were inspected by Capt. Bossieux tvery
three months.
Mr.. Charles Il. Taylor OF south Thir-
teenth street. explained that since Capt.
Bosscux had made his annual rounds,
less complaint had been made OF short
weights. He was perfectly satisfied with
the provisions of the existing law, end he
thought the annual inspections were in
favor OF the wholesale trade
Major Robert stiles appeared as a
consumer. and pointed out that the pay
,nent of such fees might be inconvenicnt
for an honest man. but il was merely
one OF the burdens OF society to pay
for measures which were practically
enacted for other people. The present law
and the new bill agreed on the necessity
or an inspection. ana the question was
only whether the inspection should be
made annually or every three years. IL
the inspection was made annually il
would certainly increase the confidence
OF the public.
Ii appeared that only opponents OF the
measure were present, ana the commit
tee, therefore, invited Capt. Eoss!eux Ia
present his views. The latter read Il
detailed speech. ana showed the com.
mittee large number o. connscated
weights ana measures
Capt. Bossieux also read a number or
letters from prominent citizens. like Ma
Jor James H. Dooiey Thomas Potts
etc, who expressed themselves in IA, or
OF the present law.
Mr. Crump said that the wholesale lner-
chants miSconceived the law, for the
Register OF the Land Oficc kept the
correct sets OF weights and measures
where merchants could get this inforna-
ton AT any time but. under the law OF
course, had TO pay for it. lie added
that there were about a thousand retail
dealers. ana that they were the ones that
made the complaints.
Mr.. Atkinson spoke in behalf OF a large
number OF consumers and dealers, and
explained that practically no one was
present who wanted the bin passed. for
MIR. crump had only introduced the ill
by request.
There was no one TO appear in favor
OF the bill, and the committee decided to
report the bill with the recommendation
that IL do not pass.
