SOAP FACTORY PLANS
by the Joint Commission
but Attorney Udell Protests

After a long and minute Investigation,
IN which the smells incident to the manu-
facture of soap were dissected and exam
ined particle after particle, with a view
to determining their composition and sus-
ceptiblity to the destructive influences Of
odor-consuming apparatus. the board of
public works, the health officer and the
building superintendent yesterday ap-
proved the construction plans of the Los
Angeles Soap company's new factory.
The plans provided for the construction
in one corner of the new four-story build
ing, 70x10O feet in size, room 12x15 feet.
A large f1ue running to the top of the build
ing and communicating with this room Is
expected to carry off the Objectionable and
.ll-smelling vapors and in their passage up
ward, a blast flame will consume them
The steamtng of tallow from the barrels
in which 1t is shipped will all be done in
this room. and as this is said to be the only
odoriferous process about soap-making
the company contends that the arrange
ment will do away with all the features
objected to. Testimony was introduced
in support of this claim and with the COM
panys additional assurance that If their
scheme did not prove effective, they will
make 1t SO, the commission approved the
plans as follows:
I'VE, the undersigned do hereby certify
that in pursuance of the order and direc-
tion of the city council of the city of Los An
geles duly made by it October 8, 1898, we
have examined the foregoing and annexed
plans Of the proposed new factory build
ing Of the Los Angeles Soap company, a
corporation, to be erected in that certain
block in Los Angeles bounded by Alameda,
Banning, Vignes and First streets, and In
which said building the manufacture Of
soap is to be carried on, and that we do
hereby approve Of the same"
Attorney Udell, representing the COM
plainants, protested that the plan Of the
odor-consuming apparatus or arrangement
as submitted was very crude and did not
| show the details 1t should to justify the ap-
proval, but the board felt that the oral
explanation was sufficient.

BOARD OF FISHERIES.
DIR. lie Caso's Bill Reported Favorably by
The House Committee.


The House Committee on the Chesa-
peake and Its Tributaries met yesterday
morning i'm room No. OF the upper floor
Of the Capitol building with DR.. Charles
Smith, of Northampton, in the chair.
Mr.. j. s. Craig. of Rockbridge first
brought up his amended bill and In con-
nection with IL DR.. lie Cato's bill which
has been adopted by the Senate was
read. DR.. Smith stated that the Con-
gressiOnal Committee would recommend
that the salary OF the chief inspector be
made $500 and that OF the assistant
secretary 81 LOO They would also re-
commend that one more member be added
TO the Board of Fisheries, so as TO make
the number six in all. or two from
Underwater and one each from Piedmont,
Southside, Shenandoah and Southwest.
THREE DOLLARS PER DAY.
The commissioners. outside OF the chief
inspector and assistant inspector are to
be paid 50 per day for their actual ser
vices after September lst.
Mr. Craig thought these recommended
tons would run up the expenses too high.
lie thought 10 pay TO the consulting MEM
hers OF the board 80 per day would bring
a different class Of people into the board
than was the intention OF the measure
Mr. owen. of Manchester, who was
present as a member of the congressional
committee, sided with the views of Mr..
Craig in regard to the payment of So
per day, but advocated the addition Of
one member, so as to make their number
six.
TO REPORT FAvOHABLY.
Mr.. S. W. Matthews. Of Accomac.
moved that the committee recommend
the passage Of DR. lie Cato's bill as II
had ben passed by the Senate.
Mr.. Craig offered as substitute his
own bill and pointed out the differences
between the two bills. In the lie cato
bill the Governor is 10 appoint the pres
ident and the secretary. while under the
Craig bill the board Of commissioners
shall select a chairman and a secretary.
The committee finally decided after a
good deal OF discussion TO re-
commend the passage of DR. re cato
bill as passed by the Senate with some
slight amendment. including the chief
oyster inspector feature OF the Bland bill.
one Of the amendments provides that no
sub-inspector and no captain of one Of
the vessels Of the oyster navy shall be
financially interested in any of the oyster
planting grounds.

morning in room No. on the upper floor
Of the Capitol building, with Mr.. Saun-
ders, of Franklin, in the chair. Quite a

1t was decided 10 report favorably the

ments.
The same action was taken In regard
