LIBBIa oo.'s SECOND ACCIDENT
City People Begin to Look About for n
Deodorizsr-More Perfume From the
Liebig Works.

Deodorlzsr-More Perfume From tho
Lieblg Works.
When public sentiment steps in and
takes up public issue, there are some
lively developments and some public
action is now looked for against the
nuisance which the Liebig Chemical Com
pany has not abated at its works In this
city.
A lovely southwest wind caught up the
extra strong odor from the refuse oil that
Is bsing unloaded at the works and the
brsezss waited IL over the city. About Il
o'clock the smell became particu-
lsrly disagreeable and people whose
appettes were fast reoedng began
to rsslizs what a struggle they would
have to eat a square meal for dinner
with that demoia'izlDg scent Of kero.
sene, spoiled d5h, morocco oif4l and
slaughter houses combined and pouring
IN the doors and windows like smoke out
OF a burning house.
Ia the centre Of the city the smell was
60 trying that few people could eat
dinner, and unless the wind changes
there Is little better prospect for supper
Ont In the county the odor was
equally strong. As far IS the Lobdeil
farm the scent had al its powerful effects
and soap and glue factories would have
furnished Sunday school excursion sea
breeze alongside the Liebig p'rfnmes.
At Farnhurst, DR. Hsncker thought
that there was something the matter
with the old gasoline plant and ordered
an investigation of the state hospital
building aud grounds Finding nothing
wrong, the doctor hsstened over TO
Superintendent Mccoy Of the county
almshouse, but ascsriained that there
was no gasoline leaking
AS far sast as the mouth OF the
Christians the odor was so strong that
boatmen thought q weeks wofk on q
moracco vat would be a pleasant change.
Where the Smell Originates.
At first It was supposed that the IRE
freehing Summer perfume" arose from 3
cargo Of refuse oil received at the Liebig
C5mpsny's works from the Standard Oh
Company This was declared a nuisance
and the company abSted it by sending
away the vessel
Now 1t seems that the odor does not
originate from the raw material nor from
the manufactured goods but from The

facture.
