LAWS
Six Cases Discovered Yesterday.
Spoiled Meat and Fish
Found.

Recorder Laney will have six cases
before him this morning for violation
of the sanitary laws of the city. This
Is the result of the work yesterday Of
the sanitary force. and three OF the
cases are restaurant keepers who are
charged with having spoiled meats
and fish on hand ready to be cooked
and sold to customers. 1t must be
said, however, that the restaurants
are only small ones and are on side
streets.
Inspector Sanchez has been named
by City Health Officer Pierpont as the
meat inspector His duties are not
only to look after the cold storage and
wholesale places, but also the meat
markets, restaurants, fish tubs. etc.,
of that description. On his rounds
yesterday he discovered in one small
restaurant steak in an ice box which
he says was badly spoiled. Other In
spectors were called in to see the
meat In order to get their opinion as
to whether or not it was fit for con-
sumption A warrant was immed, ate
ly issued for the proprietor. In an
other restaurant he found more meat
in about the same condition, while he
found quantity of fish which was un-
fit for use.
The other inspectors during the day
caused three parties to be arrested for
violating the sanitary laws by refusing
to allow an inspection of their prem
ises and by not placing their premises
in sanitary condition after receiving
notification.

Reports yesterday and last night
from Herman Oakenheim, the fish,

he was resting easy at the Marine

the wound, though he will be an in.

fired it, and that an investigation is

There was rumor to the effect that
the shot had been fired by some one

this is disproved by the statement IF
Officer Ladnier that the shot was near
him, and by the fact that Oakenhetm
was facing the party when the shot
was fired.

the cause of the shooting, was re-
