COMPLAINED OF THE FINES
Contractor War6ald Says They Are
Often Unjust.
He Holds a Lengthy Conference With
the Commissioners Regarding
.,s,. the Garbage Service.

Contractor Warffeld, of the garbage serv-
ice, and his assistant. Mr.. 8. P. Bayly, were
closeted with the District Commissioners
for about Two hours to-day, the subject of
discussion being the number OF complaints
recently filed OF the neglect of the collectors
and the infliction of a fine as penalty in some
tweih five instances based upon the COM
plants.
The contractor complained that injustice
way provided, he says, for determining sat
isfact oriiy whether or not the allegations OF
the citizens are correct
The drivers word is not taken, unsup-
ported, as against the householder's as
sertioD, and yet in instances cited, the col
lecter, called twice In a week, according to
the requirements, but was reported as not
having been at the place for over two weeks.
The irate citizen. in one of these cases
notified the health office that he would
dump the refuse into the street, unless 1t
could he immediately removed.
The point raised by Mr.. Warfield is that
had it not been for corruboration of the
drivers story that he had been TO the place
without being able to reach the garbage,
the protest would have caused him, the
contractor, to be fined.
In cases where there Is not a proper
receptacle provided and complaint is made
the contractor is excused, yet great
many complaints are filed under these
conditions, and Mr.. Warricid's protest
is against the application OF the penalty
without providing more complete guard
against injustice to the contractor.
There was no conclusion reached in
the matter. Col. Truestlell in the course
of the discussion. informed Mr.. War
field that IL was his duty under the Law to
visit The premises, and it was equally the
duty of the householder to provide proper
garbage receptacies and make the same ac-
cessible to the collector.
The proposition to rescind the penalty
clause Of the contract was not agreed to, and
any arrangement looking to the adjustment
was left to the future.
The contractor notified the board that
he had selected a competent man to inspect
the cren atores in Philadelphia, Whining
ton, and Garden, respectively, and that he
would go on at once to n axe his examina-
ton. The particular system to be emfl6yed
in the District has not yetbeen selected.
If the Con missioners have made a choice
they will not announceit. but it isconfidently
believed that one of the plants to be inspected
by the contractors agent will be chosen,
and it may be either of two, the Dixon or
the Brown.

Metropolitan Employees. Say Phillips
Is Prepared for Trouble.
From the murnurs OF discomfort among
the employees OF the Metropolitan street
railway, 1t is not Impossible that the action
OF President Phillips in forcing the en-
ployes of his road TO work additional
hours, as stated In to-iay's Morning Times,
will result in q tie-up.
The employees feel that Mr.. Phillips has
prepared himself for the worst that may
come, but this, they say. does not relieve
him OF having broken faith with his men.
The conductors and drivers are Of the
opinion that men are at hand for usefn case
trouble should ensue. One Of the con-
ductors told a Times reporter this after
noon that he knew as fact that men have
been engaged and are in readiness to go to
work Unless there is something done at
once. said one of the conductors, then the
would not state.
The conductors and drivers understand
the program for action thoroughly, and
should the occasion arise for carrying their
determination into effect, everything would
work with ciock.hke precision. Said one of
the men: 4c ~ 80 sl
II do hope matters will be adjusted
amicably, and there will be no. occasion
for trouble. All we ask is fairness

DRIVE AGAINST TOBACCO
Sensation Of the Morning Session
On the Great Exchange Mart.
American Tobacco Sold Away Down
and Reached by Several Points the
Lowest Point Yet Touched.

New York, Aug 19.-Tbe sensation Of
the morning session at the stock exchange
was the drive against American Tobacco.
This stock was forced down from 1O4 Ia
to 80 Ia on large sales. As of late, the
room traders, under the leadership OF a we'll
known plunger, were the heaviest sellers.
1t is to be said, however. that the steady
shrinkage in the price has finally resulted
in the liquidation Of long stock.
1t is reported that the manufacturers
OF plug tobacco will hold a meeting q ST.
Louis this week to devise means to fight
the trust which has entered the plug to-
bacco business. Efforts are being made
to have the Lorilards Join the opposition.

Another Injunct ion Asked by the
whisky Trust Denied.
New York, Aug. 18-JudgeH o 'Brien in
supreme court chambers to-day signed the
order denying the application for the
Injunction to restrain the reorganization
committee OF the old distilling and cattle
feeding company from using the funds
which had been on deposit with the Mer-
camille Trust Company. for the purchase
OF the property of the Whisky Trust, under
the reorganization scheme.
This order is based upon the decision
rendered last week in which he held that
while any attempt to rehahilitate the trust
would be Illegal, yet the powers of the
reorganization committee were very broad
and it would be assumed that they
would act for the best interests Of the
stoc kholders.
Judge o'Brien, however, in his order
denying the injunction gives the conf
planning stoc kholders leave to renew
their application before any other Judge
sitting i'll chambers, and 1t Is understood
that they will take adva ntage OF this
privilege.
