THE DIXON FURNACE.
Another Garbage Argument Before
the Commissioners.

Claiming that the Dixon crematory had
not received proper consideration at the
hands of the authorities. the representa-
tives of that system appeared before the
Commissioners this morning to further dis
cuss the situation. The merits of the sys-
tenn were again fully set forth. The Dixon
crematory, said its representatives, was
simple in construction, without expensive
and complicated mechanism, economical
and durable. No fumes came from the fur
mace. 1t was perfectly sanitary, and was
guaranteed to do the work satisfactorily.
They said, further, that the impression had
gone forth that the Dixon crematory could
not destroy animals. This was a mistake
Whole horses were consumed without diff
ficulty, and absolutely no odor came from
them. The Dixon crematory in its pre-
sentation before the Commissioners had
been handicapped by the unwarranted
statements of its representative at Attain
ia, who had taken issue with the District
health officer, and had hurt the cause of
the furnace in his utterances. The Dixon
company was willing that the president of
the South Washington Citizens Association
should proceed to Camden, and if, upon in
vestigation, he found anything wrong with
the furnace, they would withdraw.
The Commissioners asked if the CRATE in
the Dixon furnace had been changed.
The reply was that it had not, as it was
perfectly satisfactory. The question was
asked. Gen. Yoder remarked. because the
Commissioners had seen corn cobs in the
ashes from the furnace at Camden. Now,
corn cob was the hardest thing In the
world to burn, and they slipped through
the CRATE bars with the ashes from the
garbage. Commissioner Powell asked how,
If this were the case, did they expect to
destroy the night soil.
The reply was that it was entirely differ
ent from corn cobS and would stick and
then be consumed. 1t was mistake also
to say that the Dixon furnace could not
evaporate the water from the garbage
That was the easiest thing possible In
fact, the water was first evaporated before
the garbage was consumed.
The Commissioners promised to further
consider the matter.

Here is another suggestion
for the business man who adver-
tises or ought to advertise.
Advertising space is valuable
in proportion to the extent and
character Of circulation of the
advertising medium.
The Stars advertising rate
for a given space for three
months or more is less than S
cents per line, without changes;
for ten thousand lines to be
used within a year, changes at
will, the rate is u cents per line.
The Stars circulation is be-
lieved to be five times that of
any afternoon paper in Wash
ington-no other afternoon pa
Per makes public its circulation.
On this basis it is therefore easy
to calculate that fair rate for
space in other afternoon papers
would be one cent a line where
The Star charges FIVE and II
cents line as against The Stars
charge of y cents.

thies to the extent of quite a tidy sum. 1t

left some unpaid hotel bills as mementoes
OF their stay. In Baltimore their game fell
through and they We're convicted of the
charge of beating hotel in that city.
Their stay behind prison bars comes to
ar end today. and when they are released
they will be met by the Washington de-
tective who will bring them over to Wash
iEgton this evening.
The particular charge for which they are
wanted here is that Of obtaining 500 from
Mr.. David Curran of the War Department
on a worthless check July 81 Balch call
ed upon Mr.. Curran, and after a pleasant
chat about mutual friends is said to have
asked him to cash check for 500.
The check purported to be signed by
Hiram Hitchcock, proprietor of the Fifth
Avenue Hotel, New York, and was drawn
Curran thought that all was as it should
be and gave him the money. He deposited
the check, and, after 1t had gone through
the usual channels, ~ came back to him
marked as fobsery; AS soon as Mr.. Cur

young man, and this Is the one Detective
Boyd took with him to Baltimore today.
