WILL OPPOSE REDUCTION.

John 2. Streeter, Inspector of cat
tie and provisions, is not fully in sym
pathy with any move to reduce the
salaries of the board. He thinks the
number Of inspectors could not be re-
duced if there is any intention of per-
forming as much work as should be
done in that line. Mr., etreeter when
asked about the movement. said there
are three slaughter houses at which
the presence of inspectors is required
to considerable extent, John Bart
lett conducts slaughter house on Hol-
den street and kills on the average
-FOUR days week, SO that an inspector
has to be there more than half the
week. George Weigert on Greenwood
street kills nearly every day in the
week. Mr.. Monahan looks after this
mouse and spends nearly the entire
week there. The only other slaughter
house where killing is done regularly
is that of Homer King in Tatnuck
where an inspector is re,u.red two or
lnfee DAYS each week. In explaining
the, difficulties which attend the work
OF the board Mr.. Streeter said that the
work of the inspectors is often DELAYED
for several hours because the proprie-
tors OF slaughter houses are not ready
when they expect to be- They send
word to the office that they will begin
to Kill at 10 o'clock in the morning and
an inspector goes TO the house before
that hour. He often learns that the
cattle have not arrived, but are ex-
pected every minute, so he does not
leave until the work is done, and on
account of the non-arrival of the cattle
at the expected time, the inspector loses
several hours. Mr.. Streeter said it is
impossible to regulate killing so that
this delay can be avoided.

John Dunn, of the Waldo street station

MELLEN SUED.
That Illegal Caucus Notice
Hasn't Been Paid For.

The illegal calling of the democratic
caucuses of this city by James H. Mel
len, erstwhile Of the city government
and now member of the great and
general court, refuses to down, and, like
the ghost of Banquo, it rises inoppor-
timely for, Mr.. Mellen.
The latest phase of the famous eau
Gus "notice" developed yesterday, when
the Worcester Evening Post, through
its counsel, John e. Sullivan, Esq,
brought suit in the local court against
Mr.. Mellen, in an action Of contract to
recover for the printing of notices in
the Post which were issued by James
II. Mellen as chairman of the democrat
ic city committee, even if the notices
were sent out late.
A writ of attachment was issued in
the sum of $500, and was served by
Deputy Sheriff James Early, the writ
being to attach goods and estate of
James II. Mellen "frauduIantly," in the
name of Mary Mellen. The record at
the registry of deeds office bears the
phrase "frauduIantly in the name of
Mary Mellen," and this feature of the
case, with the nature of the action at
aw, has created considerable of a SEN
sation.
The claim against Mr. Melen is a
printing bin for the publication in the
Post of such notices as were sent out
by Mr. Mellen in his capacity as chair
man of the democratic city committee.
After the illegality of Mr.. Melen's cau-
Gus calls leaked out he refused to pay
the bill, and accordingly the Post has
sought redress in the courts.
1t will be remembered that Mr. Nal
len claimed to have issued his notice in
time, but examination failed to show
the compliance with the legal REQUIRE
ments, as the first notice which was
published and for which MIR. Mellen
now refuses to pay, appeared without
the legal limit.
The case is returnable in the central
district court, Feb. 18th, John E. Sulli-
van appearing for the Post Comnanv

WANT EQUIPMENTS.

The Emmett Guards will not meet at
the armory tomorrow evening. The
members of the company do not at
tend meetings in sufficient numbers to
pay for holding a meeting and Capt.
Moynihan will not attempt to hold
any drills until the company has arms,
uniforms and other equipments to drill
with. The Emmets would be in excel
lent shape if they had the necessary
equipments, and the company officers
bemoan the fact that it is necessary
to lose so much valuable time.
