COUNCIL TO MEET
A RED HOT SESSION IS EXPECTED.
consfderation of The Meat Inspectors Ordinance win Bring About Great Fight--Opinion is
 Divided.

Mobile, Aug, 1s--(special)--As mat ters are now developing, 1t looks as hough the meeting of the City Council tomorrow evening will be a hot one. The chief matter to be considered. or rather that which is likely to bring about the greatest fight is the com sideration of the meat inspectors ordi- nance
 There is undoubtedly two factors in this town on this proposition and while both desire that the closest safeguards should be placed around the meats that are to grace. or disgrace their tables, yet there is some difference of opinion as to the method to be employed.
 According to an open letter published by those doctors who comprise the board of health. 1t would appear shst the board is in favor of the ordinance and that their discoveries as to meat conditions here are not of the best On the other hand therS Is a decided opinion that the meat market is bzing we'll conducted and that all that Is de- sired by the pending ordinance Is to place the slaughter house proposition in such a condition that the small deal- CTS will be practically driven out of the market. A petition against the ordi- nance has been generously signed by those holding these views as told in The Advertiser of this morning.
 Just how council is divided on the question is hard to get at principally because the ordinance is one that is practically out of the sphere of what may be termed administration, or anti administration ordinances and therefore the measure is the more likely to get e clean fight on the floor of the Council chamber
