The city garbage is being sent down

wharf There will be no change in this
method of disposing OF it until some agree
ment is reached with reference to the
future operation of the crematory, and
this is at present a problem not easily
solved.
Mr.. Ii s. Brown, the owner of The plant,
is understood to lie out OF the city, having
gone To make arrangements for replacing
the burned out crate bars of the furnace.
He has said that lie cannot make all the
improvements To the furnace that the Com
mssioners require, and ii is said tha I
there is even a misunderstanding as 10 the
character Of the plant mat was t. he
put IN.
POINTS OF DIFFERENCE.
Mr. Brown agreed To construct Il pant
similar to the one at Wilmington, Deia-
ware. for a stipulated sum, but mean while
there was Il circular descriptive OF his
process, which differed CONSIDERABLY from
the Wilmington method. ana differing also
IN some particulars from the mode of
operating and the construction OF tha [
plant.
qme plant here was guaranteed to burn
one hundred tons OF garbage in twelve
hours. Ii is now admitted hy Mr.. Brown
thai one hIadre.i tons is ahoVcltS capacity,
ana thequeStion OF accepting the cfeihatory
hinges upon that point. ii Is understood
OF course. that if the conditions of the
/ agreement ara nos met, the garbage con
tractor is not Obliged to take the Crematory,
and that he will under no cirCumsta nces
accept it without II is lrst approved
by the Commissioners.
MORE TROUBLE IN SIGHT.
The garbage contractor is of the opinion
! that the Brown system, as developed at
| Wilmington, is good one and he believes
| tina the fault in The oAehcrr, y 5 manifested,
| is altogether in the construction of the
furnace. This opinion Is shared by the
