Thaw was the information given out
this afternoon from authoritative
sources It was announced that Mrs.

Above, in rooms built on unstable

the Chinese. No sewers were found in
the district. the swamps and Shiny wa

pended upon to carry away all refuse.
Next to the Chinese sausage lining
quarter, the abattoir of Clayburgh &
George was found to be in no better
condition Rats abounded. No precau-
tions had been taken to dispose of
the refuse according to the sanitary
laws. Rats exhumed from under the
floors were found dead from plague.
The marsh underneath the buildings
was found to be impregnated with a

The hog pens were revolving in their

The history of Butchertown covers 40
years. That length of time ago the
city set aside a small section of the
swamp and tide lands off the southern
end of the Potrero. requiring that all
slaughtering and dressing of meat
should be done within the confines laid
out. The butchers reservation, as 1t
was at that time termed, ran from First
avenue south to Seventh avenue. and
from Railroad avenue on the west to /
street on the east.
The meat dealers refused, however,
to spread their plants over the space
allotted to them. but crowded their
tumbledown huts into space little in
excess of 1900 feet. bounded by Fourth
and Fifth avenues South and N and N
congregated what have come to be the
worst set of buildings in the city.

was conducted by DR.. Rupert Blue

posted and due publicity was given
Those places which bore sufficient
semblance of proper care and construc-
ton which made possible their repair
and cleansing were given peremptory
notice to at once eradicate the prevail
ing condition. But instead of obeying
the orders OF the inspectors the butch
ers tried to cover UP the worst spots
with paint and whitewash and hurried
the filth out of sight.
Instead OF incinerating the offal
viscera and bones taken from slaugh-
tered animals the workmen have made
