The few victims of the law in Rich.
mond-men and boys who have been
fined for smoking cigare ttes-were
wondering last night if the S35 they
paid out in fines would now be, remit,

for them to learn that when they were
fined the law was valid and on the
statute books, so there will be moth

of the Supreme Courts decision had

Scientific slaughter-Houses.

Paris, with her genius for organi-
cation, probably leads the world in
her scientifically conducted slaughter
houses. Almost perfect precautions
for public safety are taken by means
of the rigorous inspection Of the meat
by the police. There are two inn
mense municipal abattoirs and the
charge for slaughtering, known as
the 'slaughter-house tax" is two
francs per hundred Kilograms, or
al out $4.22 per ten, which the city
sets aside 10 defray the cost of a.sain-
tanning and repairing the abattoirs.
In round numbers the city receives
$760,000 a year.
The cattle market and the slaugh-
ter-houses occupy over 100 acres,
The market consists of branch line
connecting with the railways running
into Paris, stables, fountains, three
large covered market buildings, and
the cattle pens. 'sThe inspection of
live stock is carried out with great
thoroughness by large staff Of vet
erinary surgeons, or their assistants.

HAVOC IN SALVADOR.
Many -SIan-of-yar Sunk
Crops Swept Away.

San Salvador "A tempest ragged
incessantly for ten days throughout
the republic, flooding the rich valleys,
principally that OF Majada, and re-
sulting in great loss of life and de-
struction of crops.
The Salvadorean man-of-war Izalco
was lost at Acajutla.
The topography of various depart
ments has been changed; buildings
have fallen, burying their tenants In
the ruins, and the iron bridges over
the principal rivers have been carried
away.
1t was estimated that $4,000, 900
tons of water fell. The aqueducts
and electric light plants at Sonsonate
and Salvador have suffered heavy
losses.
The railroads, telegraphs and COM
merce are para1yzed, but traffic is be-
ing restored in some towns of the
republic
The water mains at some places
have disappeared.
The rivers are bringing down the
bodies of persons drowned in the
storm and the carcasses Of cattle,
and the sight Of these tends to in
crease the terror of the people.
The Government has issued orders
that assistance be given to victims
of the storm
Guatemala and Honduras also nave
suffered severely. 1t is said the losses
there will amount to many millions
of dollars.

Worlds Work and Play. "The dis
infection of the pens with a solution
of eau de Jayel goes on daily-I
might almost say hourly.
"On the conclusion of a sale. the
animals are generally at once trans
ferred to the abattoirs. Here the
buildings, some forty to fifty in num-
ber, consist of slaughter-houses
stables, singeing house, auction
room for the sale of small quantities
of meat, octroi building, administra-
tive Offices, electric-lighting station,
ice mandatory, janitors lodge,
clock-tower, etc. The slaughter
houses, which are solidly built and
arranged on a fan-shaped plan, are
separated into equal groups by three
perpendicular and three transversal
streets which cross at right angles.
Oxen are killed In open courtyards,
and these, in addition to the echau-
doirs, where animals are cut up and
dressed ready for sale to butchers,
are carefully cemented, the ground
sloping toward a central trough
which leads direct to the drains.
There is a plentiful supply Of water
and the whole place is kept so scrup-
ulously clean that, toward one
O'Clock in the afternoon, when killing
is over for the day and buying com
mences, you would never imagine
that It had 50 recently been the scene

The patsntee is a resident OF Indian

is adjusted in a manner quite
out of the ordinary. PivOted
on the movable jaw is a small lever.
Extending from the lever is catch
which registers with the ratchet
teeth. To adjust the jaws the lever
is moved away from the handle far
enough to bring the catch out of

is then free to move ii either direc-

NEW YORK CENTRAL FINED.
Judge Holt Administers Rebuke
With Penalty OF sos, 900.


New York City.--Judge Holt in the
United States Circuit Court fined the
New York Central Railroad the sum
of $108, ,000- $4,000 on each of six
counts-on the charge of granting
rebates to the sugar trust.
Frederick L. Pomeroy, assistant
traffic manager of the railroad, CO.
defendant. was fined $1,000 on each
count, total of $4,000.
Judge Holt delivered scssthing
indictment of the practices OF the
railroad in sentencing.
Such a violation of law" said
Judge Holt in passing sentence, is
much more heinous than the ordinary
common, vulgar crimes usually
brought before the criminal courts.
Those are crimes of sudden passion
and temptation. These crimes we
are dealing with were committed by
men of education, business exper-
ience, and standing in the commu-
nifty, and as such they should be ex-
pected to set an example of obedience
to the law, on the maintenance of
which the security of their property
depends.
This corporation received large
and valuable public privileges. It
was under the highest obligations to
treat all citizens alike, and not to
grant any unjust determinations.
This was a secret crime, the proof of
which was difficult to obtain The
law was originally passed twenty
years ago. The complaints of the
granting of rebates by railways were
frequent and insistent
'sIt is not too much to say" con-
tinued Judge Holt, that If the busi-
ness had been carried on upon this
basis and the discrimination contin-
ued in favor Of one shipper it might
have been that competitors would
have been driven out of business"
