CITY VETERINARIAN INSISTS ON
CORRECTION OF EVIL.

The most stringent step in the en-
forcement of the meat inspection ordi-
nance was taken yesterday when DR.. J.
w. fireman, city veterinarian, refused
longer to furnish city inspection for the
Moedl Stock & Slaughter house of North
Salt Lake The withdrawal of the city
inspector stopped the slaughtering at
this plant, and DR.. fireman said last
night he would not issue another per
init until Y. MOedl, who conducts the
plant, puts in city water or improves the
quality of the water used.
The action of DIR. fireman came after
tests of the water made by Herman
Harms, state and city chemist, I'm which
the chemist says it is not fit for culinary
or domestic purposes, owing TO the pres
ence of organic matter of a harmful
character A part of the report of
