Board Of Health Decides to Com
pei FulGllment Of Ordinance
To Letter.
CIRCULARS TO BE SENT OUT.
Duties Of Hauling Company and
HOuSehulderS To BE Defined Q
and Prosecutions
Threatened.

After 4 lengthy discussion at the meet
ing OF the Board Of Health yesterday it
was decided to enforce 10 the letter the
ordinance relative to the collection OF gar
bage. both where the hauling company
and the Individual citizen Is concerned.
This means that on and after a date to
be- decided upon at the next meeting Of the
board on THURSDAY there must be daily
collections by the hauling company. and
that the householder must make a
primary separation OF the refuse, such a
glass. tin cans and the like from the gar
baEe proper.
The motion Of Doctor Merren was
adopted by the board. which requested
Health Commissioner Simon 10 draw up
a set Of notices. subject TO the approval Of
the board. To be distributed throughout
the city by the Police Department
Mr. Frye. who r. a member OF the board
and one OF the Police Commissioners. will
act with Doctor Simon. so as TO be able
to instruct the police in the distribution
OF the notices.
Il is understood that the notices will be
modelled after those which were used in
New York CITY. and with which Doctor
Simon Is familiar. on account OF his recent
visit with the Sanitary Commission.
The notices will explain beyond the
question OF doubt just what the house
holder has TO DO and just what is expect
ed OF the hauling company. As in New
York. II is expected that the notices Will
be printed In at least three languages.
ENFORCED EDUCATION.
Doctor simon said that when first in
augurated in the metropolis the system re-
suited in 1.S0D police-court cases, I'm which
81 and costs was the fine assessed. and
in two months the citizens were educated
up To what had 10 be done.
Mayor Wells. who presided at the meet
ing. brought up the garbage question in n
speech IN which he stated the existing
conditions as they appeared to him. and
invited each member Of the board TO ex-
press himself fully.
The Mayor said that 20 his mind there
IS no doubt but that the ordinances and
the contracts are being violated. and
though he had hoped for a happy solution
or the question. he had come to the con-
clusiOn that there is no more appropriate
time 10 enforce the law TO the letter than
now. on account Of the fact that the san
itary Commission would soon make re-
port to the Municipal Assembly.
He made allowances, he said. for cases
where IL. was a physical impossibility to
collect the garbage on account OF streets
being opened and alleys reconstructed,
but that would have to be taken into con-
sideration under the step about to be TAX
en- by the board
Doctor MerreH said that inasmuch as
there are two ordinances governing the
question. there would doubtless be some
trouble at the start as to the kind OF re-
ceptacle tp be Used.
All present are in favor OF the step sug-
gested by Mayor Wells They were. be-
sides the Mayor Health Commissioner ST.
