Health Officer Ragan testified that
the use of the preservaline in meat re-
tards digestion and a person eating
such meat regularly would be liable to
kidney disorders of serious nature.
Hammond testified that he had been
nearly twenty-five years In the busi-
ness and had used the preservaline reg
ularly in Hamburg steak, as it i'm
proved the meat and killed any germi-
cides. He was not aware that it was
in any way injurious. otherwise he
would not have used it. Henceforth he
would discontinue its use. as he had no
intention of violating the law.
AS the health officers said they mere
ly desired to see that the law was not
violated and as Hammond had consent
ed not to use the preservaline again.
the Judge dismissed the case. The
other two defendants made similar
promises and their cases were also dis
missed.

by woman that night but he could
not identify Mrs. Adams as the woman.
What name and residence did she
give?' asked Assistant District Attor-
ney Ferral. Judge Dibble. for the de-
fense, objected to this question on the
ground that the defendant was not
present when the name and address
were given.
Judge Ferral said that the fact that
the woman who bought the acid and
Mrs. Adams were the same had been
established by Corporal Herlihy's testi-
mony. Judge Dibble declared that at

Lawlor had ruled against the admis-
sion of the testimony. The transcript
shows that the name and address given
by the woman were admitted as tes-
timony," declared Ferral

ciared Dibble.

to tell of the name and address the
woman had given him, Dibble protest
ing that by SO doing the court was find
ing that 1T was the defendant who
bought the poison and Ferral contend
ing that if he did not admit the tes-
timony he would be deciding that she
was not.
Oliver Dibble, who is assisting his
father in the trial of the case, SUBJ
mitted Herlihy to rigid cross exami-
nation, but the officer was not shaker in
any material point
Frank Green testified that as City
Chemist he had found that the spots on
the boards taken from the closet floor
were caused by alcohol DR.. Harry Nei-
meyer testified that he had not told
Mrs. Adams to burn the little boys
clothes. supposed to bear acid stains.
contradicting her statement that he
had.
Police Captain Duke told of Mrs.
Adams denying to him that she had
any cerbolic acid in the house and that
she knew anything about its use and
afterward acknowledging that she had
used some ION her sister,"
The case goes on at 10 o'clock this

Balance OF S4SO0 VIII BE Utilized Tor
the Purchase OF Apparatus for
institutions.
The Board of Health yesterday issued
statement showing that there is a
balance of s4S00 TO the credit of the sal
airy account in the main office.
The Finance Committee of the Board
of Supervisors has practically decided
to permit the Health Board to use
part of this surplus IN the next fiscal
year TO be applied to the hiring of such
extra help as may from time to. time be
made necessary to carry on the work
of this board. The bulk of the surplus
will be used for the purchase of ;neces-
sary apparatus for the various institu-
tions under the control of the Board
of Health, such as an x-ray apparatus
for the Emergency Hospital; washing
machine. boiler and sterilizer for the
City and County Hospital and a heat
ing plant for the City and County
Almshouse. The saving of such a large
amount was made possible by the poll
icy of the board in abolishing the old
system of food inspection and substitute
ing the present Bureau of Pure Food
Inspection, where all of this work is
conducted in the chemical laboratory,
which has produced good results.
