Permit from Board of Health to Sell
BiUalUes NO7C Necessary.

Sewage fed oysters were put out of business oy
the Health Department at special meeting yester-
day. The regular meetings held on Wednesdays
but several weeks ago it determined that the
blow should fall yesterday This is the way the
addition 10 the Sanitary Code reads:
No. 1s5-No oysters shai. be held. kept or offered
for sale anywhere in the city of New York witnous
subject tu the rules and regulations of said board
1t was admitted after the meeting that No 1s5
did not sound ominous for the oyster industry, but
it is significant in what it implies 1t marks the
beginning of the against the sewage fed oyster.
to which the metropolitan sewerage commission
and the pollution committee of the Merchants AS
sociatiOn have called attention.
The latter has under way preparations for a
suit against New Jersey to prevent the further
pollution of the Upper Bay through the new trunk
which it is intended shall purify the Passaic
River at the expense OF the purity of the waters
contiguous to this city
When attention first called to the fattening
process employed by many oyster men the Health
Department took up the matter. DR.. Park, of the
meteorological bureau. received Instructions to in
vestigate. He reported that oysters were beyond
doubt fattened sewage and that the oysters so
fattened freely sold in this market. and also
that these oysters that carriers of dis
ease. notably typhoid fever.
DR.. Darlington. the Health Commissioner. said
last evening that the enactment of this new rule
had been under consideration for a long time.
We know just where all oysters come from. and
those that come from the sewage fed zones will be
shut OUT he said I'VE have prepared several
maps that show just where the oyster beds are
contaminated and will forbid the sale of oysters
from these beds Any dealer caught selling without
our permit will be subjected to a heavy fine. and
we will revoke the permit of any dealer Tho sells
oysters from beds under the ban
An oystermen's association formed at the
Ashland House on February s. Aze F. Merrell was
chosen president. 1t determined at this meet
ing to fight against the agitation of the Merchants
Association and the metropolitan sewerage COM
mission. One of the men present said that experts
had declared oysters antidote ty-
phoid- 1t was said that the agitation against the
fed oysters had the dealers fully three
million dollars.
