Death Record of a Day-Nottces
Sent to Owners of Buildings.

The garbage systems, in addition to all
that have gone before, have recently entered
the elistsas candidates for the Commissioners
favor.
One is the Anderson crematory, now in
operation in Chicago, the merits OF which
were presented to the board yesterday by
the inventor, Prof. ]. C. Anderson, and
Mr. w. C. Mcintyre. They were accom-
panied by Mr.. Arthur Stewart, of Baltimore,
and Mr. S. P. Bay yly, who represent Joshua
n. Warfield, the garbage contractor. The
claim isnladet that the process isvery superior
and tina Mr.. Warfiela indorses it.
The plan is to place the garbage indis
criminately upon steel freight cars and pass
it through a very hot furnace, by which
means the moisture is all extracted. The
cars are then passed before tanks from
which the refuse is sprayed with oil, and
it is then burned on fire brick base built
in the cars. 1t is claimed that the carcass
of horse, thus prepared, can be entirely
destroyed in seven minutes.
The other system TO which attention of
the board S called is the ThaCkeray & Co.
1nciueratiOD. system.
This treats all garbage alike, no sorting
being necessary, and the refuse is burned
without the aid Of fuel. 1t consumes night
Soil as readily and as economically as it
does other refuse.
The system is guaranteed to destroy all
organic matter, and to cause 10 nuisance
LOOKING INTO EACH
By direction of the Commissioners, each

Elliott mad been a member Of the police
force for two years. He was detailed
several weeks ago for special duty in the
office of Assistant Attorney Pugh, but
meanwhile the trial board had invcsti-
gated charges against him IN which il is
alleged he was shown To have been guilty
OF "hoodling" J." Eniott's testimony was
that he ana Officer Bassford, also dis
missed, had gone TO the 'hoodlers re-
treat" innoceutly to inquire about a man
for whom they had warrant.
This was CorruhOrated by the testimony
OF ex-Policcman Jones, in whose place the
officers We're found.

is very mach impressed with the Tepresen-
tatioEs made IN ElIlott's behalf.
