ture, said one of the drivers of a sprink-
ling cart, on his return to the stable,
thoughtlessly emptied the contents of his
cart along Louisiana avenue, and the
thermometer at that time was below
freezing point the street soon took on the
appearance of an ice pond.
Louisiana avenue Is looked upon by
drivers as one of the hardest streets in
the city for traffic, because of its ugly
angle, and under ordinary circumstances
accidents are common. but with the aid of
the leo every team that attempted to cross
this thoroughfare experienced a lively
time. If the horse that went on the Ice
was not good skater he fell with q
bump. This condition, of affairs kept sew
eral policemen and pedestrians busy get
ting fallen horses to their feet and lead
ing them safely across the thoroughfare.
The matter was called to the attention
of Superintendent Twohey. and he has
directed ]. F. Conrad. who has the con-
tract for sprinkling the streets, to dis
charge the driver who was responsible for
watering Louisiana avenue.

FALSE ALARMS TURNED IN.

About $40 O'Clock last night the fire de-
partment received a call from box 6S7
because OF blaze in the cracker bakery
of William Mcdonald, sth and Franklin
streets. South Brookland. BY the time
the engines reached the bakery it was
ablaze from one end to the other, and
there not the slightest possibility
that building or contents would be saved
1t was a twO-story frame structure about
sixty feet long and thirty feet wide, and
was equipped with modern machinery.
How or in what part OF the building the
fire originated the iremen could not de-

Members of the fire department were
told that the building was closed long
before the fire was discovered. and that
It was securely fastened but the fire

they found the door open. Truck and

the alarm and extinguished the flames.

The blaze started from some cause which
could not be determined, the police re-

an alarm that was turned in from box 53
had the fire under control in a Few
minutes.
Firemen and policemen have been given
consIdera BILE annoyance this week by some
individual who has amused himself by
turning In false alarms of fire. Three
such alarms have been turned In during
the past two days. the first from the box
at 18th and T streets and the second from
18th street and Rhode Island avenue.
This morning the fire and police depart

alarm. The engines returned to their
quarters. and the policemen remained to
make an investigation. 1t is thought that
the alarms yesterday and this morning

STAMPING MEATS.
Investigation by Committee o
Chamber of Commerce.

The investigation that is being conduct
ed by a spe cial committee of the Wash

methods of stamping meats was con-
tinued yesterday. A number Of meat
dealers presented before the committee
pieces of meat which had been stamped
with steel die worked from an analine
ink pad.
The fact was shown that the analine
dye dripped down over the meat, stains
the whole piece and often disf1gures the
stall.
The butchers testified 1t was necessary
to cut out the stamps before selling the
meat at retail. This leaves scar upon
the cut which arOuses the suspicion OF
the buyer.
A letter was read by Allen d. Albert,
chairman Of the committee. from Secre-
tary Wilson requesting the committee to
call upon him in his office and present
their findings.
