Especial Dispatch to The Call
WASHINGTON. May 2S.-It is def
nitely decided that the United States
will retain control over Nicaragua un-
til peace is assured In the Central
American republic.
The navy department has continued
its force of 100 men and machine guns
from the Paducah at and near the Gus
tom house at Bluehelds. This force is
to be an international police force, and
is to remain indefinitely.
This amounts in theory as well as
Nicaragua. which has been made neces-
sary. the officials hold, by the utter in
defensibility of the acts both of Madriz
and Zelaya. Madriz is not recognized
as the president of Nicaragua by the
United States.
If the Estradists are defeated and are
driven back into the city the United
States sailors will not permit them to
be slaughtered in the streets. II the
Madriz forces gain a victory and enter
the city they will be subject In the first
instance to whatever police regulations

will withdraw his objections to
the new meat inspection ordinance
which has been adopted by the board
of supervisors to go into effect July /.
Doctor Eaton declares that he is
convinced. in light of the campaign
which The Call has made for the
measure, that it is a sound and hy-
gienic proposal and that he will, If
afforded the necessary inspectors BY
the board of supervisors, put ordi-
nance 1884 into effect.
In the space of less than a week
those who have waged the campaign
against the danger of tubercle infec-
ton from meat have practically won
the battle for the new law, and unless
business interests are superior to con
siderations of public health, it is high
ly probable that rigid inspection will
be introduced in the slaughter houses
of San Francisco and the wholesale
shops where meat products are manu-
factured.
Doctor Eaton said last night that
he would not oppose the ordinance
for he was now convinced that it is
a good measure and one we'll designed.
provided the board of health would be
afforded the money by the board Of
supervisors to put it into operation.
Eaton Wants More Men
1T is not the ordinance that I
opposed, but the operation of the or
dinance under present conditions" he
said. "We have but four inspectors,
who could not accomplish as much as
they accomplish now if they were not
afforded help under the new law. If
the board of supervisors will give me
II more men, | will support the new
ordinance and put it into operation.
Il believe that tuberc1e meat is
being consumed in the citv today. In
fact, don't think it is disputed. but
under this new ordinance 1 am con
vinced things could be remedied. I
never opposed the new ordinance on
the ground that it was not good. I did
oppose IL on the ground that I could not
put it into effect If the board will
employ inspectors. which might be done.
I will put into effect the law as 1t
stands.
