The visit OF the agent OF the garbage CON
tractor to wilmington and Philadelphia.
which has hen heretofore noticed in The
Times. was not made with the view Of
| Inspecting furnaces IN order TO determine
their ability, but was in reality 10 make
the best terms possible with The owners Of
the system, and the decision Of the Commits
>ioncrs haS not been made public, in order
that Mr. Warficld might first come TO an
agreement.
CONTRACTOR WARFIELD NOTIFIED.
Thechoicem made by the Commissio toner's was
communicated TO Contractor Warfield one
week ago to-day, and 1t is understood
TO have been at his request that nothing
was then said about the approval OF the
Smith system. He that day announced
that he had named competent mautogoon
To
gate The workings OF the several systems
/ previously inspected 10y the Commissioners
and the health officer. conveying the i'm
preston that It was for purposes of COM
! parison.
II had been previously agreed, however,
when the board and the health officers
held their private conference with him, that
there should be DO publication made OF the
selection. He was Informed that noone but
those present knew anything about il, and
that nothing should be said here that would
emharrass him.
The AnacOstia anti-salOOn people are
preparing TO renew the fight against the
issuance OF license upon the Munden ap-
plication. In their interests Attorney Shoe
maker, or the Anti Saloon League. has filed
q request with the excise board that further
consideration OF the application be post
poDed until the next monthly meeting Oft the
board, when the opponents VIII be ready
with a vigorous protest.
MUNDELL'S PURPOSE EXPLAINED:
The point sought to be gained by those
who are advocating MunGelrs interests
Is that after the saloon is once licensed the
owner is exempted from the operation OF
that clause in the law that requires the
signature Of a ma jority of the residents
IN support Of the application. This will
enable Mundcll 10 come TO the excise
board in November as an established saloon
keeper, and unless upon some other grounds
he is turned down, the fact that he has not
again secured the consent OF the people
VIII be no bar 10 the renewal OF his
license.
The effort Of the temperance people Will
be 10 demonstrate TO the board that a
majority of the people are opposed to
having the saloon opened. They think
they can show tins state of facts beyond
any doubt, and they Will be ready with
the facts at the next meeting of the board
