The Unsettled Liquor Ouestion.

If the News and Courier and the
lawyers who agree with it are right
in their view of the law, there is not
so much prohibition in ''the law as it
now stands" after all. If there really
be legal loop.holes, it is we'll known
what the result will be. Of one
thing there cannot be any doubt:

There has been great deal of false
sentiment wasted over that Coxey tri-

not denied to Coxey, Browne and

attempting to make an address from

ANNOYED BY CLOUDS OF SCOT.
West Twenty-si1th Street Resi-
dents Complain of a Plant
Health Board will Sue the Edison
Illuminating Company.

Henry Steinert, attorney and coun-
sellor to the Board of Health, has been
directed by City Sanitary Superintend-
ent DR.. Charles II. Roberts to begin
suit against the Edison Electric Illu-
minating Company, for, 1t Is alleged.
failing to obey an order OF the Board
of Health to suppress a nuisance said
to be maintained by the Company.
Notice of the action will be served upon
II. A. Campbell, Superintendent of the
Company, to-day.
For the last six months scarcely a
week has elapsed that one or more COM
plants against the Company's plant at
Al to 81 West Twenty-sixth street have
not been entered. The complainants were
residents Of the neighborhood, who stated
that the showers OF cinders. SCOT and
dust coming from the big chimneys al
most continually made life in the vicinity
somewhat of a hardship.
Clothes hung out on the roof lines to
dry were smeared with SCOT and sprin-
killed. with cinders. 1t was alleged. and
when windows were opened to air the
rooms of dwellings for any length Of
time the deposits were so extensive as
to make the rooms almost unfit for
habitation.
TO keep verandas anywhere near the
|
air. the complainants allege, was at
| times so laden with the myriads OF little
black specks that after sitting ouside or
near an open window for half hour 1t
became necessary to indulge In an ablu-
ton OF soap and hot water in order to
present clearly appearance.
| Inspectors Of the Board Of Health
| began Investigations as edrly as last
March. and reported that the nuisance
complained Of really existed. Orders to
abate the same were issued. and the
Company promised to, take heed. but
the complainants found no relief. The
| same conditions continued to prevail.
until finally the City Improvement So.
| ciety took hold OF the matter and found
| out what the trouble was.
| 1t was ascertained that there were no
screens in the chimneys, and that the
draught was SO great that at times when
| extra coaling UP was necessary SCOT and
cinders were belched forth In little
| clouds.
The officers of the Company promised
make such other improvements as
might be found advisable in order to
prevent the escape Of SCOT and cinders.
| Whether the promise was kept or not,
does not appear. Complaints. however.
kept coming In to the Board Of Health
but the hoped for relief was not forth;
coming. Finally, the authorities tired
OF dilly-dallying and determined to take
the matter to the courts.
DIR. Roberts says he has a strong case
against the Company. and will listen to
no overtures fer compromise. The
reralt is a fine not exceeding $500. or
orc years imprisonment, or both.

Company, are Dr. Wells, Of ~ West

BROOKLYN GARBAGE BURNED.
New Utrechet More Advanced in
This Respect than New York.


This Respect than New York.
Wagonloads OF garbage were taken
from the Thirtieth Ward, or New
Utrecht. Brooklyn, this morning, to the
Coney Island Crematory, on Canal ave-
nue., where 1t will he consumed. In the
matter OF disposing OF Its garbage,
New Utrecht and Coney Island are
ahead OF New York.
City Works Commissioner White. OF
Brooklyn, has become so we'll pleased
with the disposition of the garbage
ut the crematory that he advises the con-
struction Of one in which to burn all
the garbage gathered in the city.
At Coney Island the crematory can
consume twenty-five tons Of garbage a
day. or this amount about ten tons
daily will be taken from New Utrecht.
The crematory will be enlarged next
year. to provide for the disposition Of
garbage from other wards near Coney
Island, The cost OF burning the New
Utrecht garbage Is much less than
dlsposing of It by scows. Some OF IT,.
however, Will still be carried out to sea.
as the crematory Is not large enough to
consume all the garbage collected.
During the Winter, when the hotels
at Coney Island are closed, some Of the
garbage collected In the city will be
consumed In the crematOry.
