TO BE WHlTEWASHED.
City Council Will Probably Not
Investigate Farnsworth.

It is probable that the only result of
the charges filed by II. B. Howard
against Food Inspector Farnsworth
will be a complete revision of the food
inspection laws of the city. The health
and sanitation committee met last
night land aside from reading the
charges and hearing a brief statement
from Mr.. Howard, took no action
whatever in the matter.
1t seemed to be the sentiment of the
committee, however. that the city food
adultera ton laws are in need of a
complete revision, and the committee
will consult with the city attorney rel
ative to the draftinS of a new law
which will make it clear just how far
the food inspector is under the iuris-
diction of the board of health. The
tendency of the committee is to make
the inspector merely sort of special
agent of the board of health. which is
the position he occupies now. as the
laws are interpreted
Councilman Joseph Griley. a member
of the committee. said today: +Mr
Howard does not seem to have enough
evidence to warrant making the
charges which he has made. He could
not aven sustain the charges which he
set forth in his communications to the
council OF course there is nothing tt
prevent his bringing forward more
evidence If he wants to- but we ques.

he really knew very little about the
