what large ship the Tartar is.
The captain of the vessel also cabled
from Hong Kong, announcing that the
British authorities refused to grant him
clearance papers and would only au-

aboard. This will necessitate leaving
379 men ashore. as the Tartar left Ma

AN INFORMAL Meeting.
The Board of Health And City Off
CialS Meet For Consultation.

The members of the board of health,
together with the mayor and city at
torney, held an informal meeting this
morning at the office of @. r. More
head. The sewers and flushing tanks
have been causing some trouble lately
and the officials met for consultation.
1t was then decided to go out on a short
tour of inspection land conveyances were
procured.
The board remained out about On
hour. They found the flushing ap-
paratus in good condition. but found
that the trouble with the sewers had
been due to the water supply being
Inadequate. This can be remedied by
simply turning on more water.
The sewers had been choking up
some lately and the guardians of the
public's health felt greatly relieved
when they found such an easy solution
to the problem.
