New Haven. Aug. 27-Last night, Z some 5000 or more of the Jewish resi- 7dents Of the city met and decided not :, to purchase any more meat unless the Kosher butchers came down in their prices If there is is no reduction, ii was agreed that the co-operativee stores would be started. AS a result ' of the meeting, the sections of the city where there is a large Jewish pop ulation were scenes of riot and tumult ; ucet of the morning.
 When customers went to the Kosher shops for the days meat they were met by those who had taken part in last nights meeting and efforts made to persuade them from making pur- chaees Most of the boycotters were women and the police department call- ed out it's reserves to keep order.
 Nearly every butcher in the Howard avenue section telephoned the police that efforts were being made to wreck the interior of his store and that vio- lence was threatened him if he per- sisted in selling any of his meat. The police believe they have the situation we'll in hand and no serious trouble ie looked for.

General Agent L. Se- yier of the Southern advised me that he was ready. The general agents for the Frisco and Illinois Central impor- tuned me to walt on account of money tightness, and we have waited some time. The city has moved cautiously but firmly In this matter, and we in tend te have that viaduct built. The city viaduct many streets and rear ranged the entire line in Norwood for these companies with the contracted understanding that this viaduct Is to be built, and to say that the commits sion is cultiyating it's backbone in this matter is to jab us where 1t Is abso- lutely unealled for The railroads i'm terested have been informed that the city will proceed against them if that bridge Is not built. and l am determ ined that the two roads in question shall not delay that step of progress Iany longer"

ADVISES PEOPLE ID !. SUE THE WATER CO.
Weatherly Issues Letter to the Complaining Water
 Users in Birmingham

Sue the waterworks company and bring them to reasonable attitude is the advice of Commissioner James Wealth erly to complaining water users. He is- sued a circular letter yesterday in view of the fact that he has received a con- stant stream of complaint and his advice sets forth that the flat rate is, in his opinion, in force under the old contract, and that the one the company is pre- suming to operate under has been re- pudiated by the votes of the people.
 MT. Wsatherly in his letter says
 q presume you have been keeping up for some months between the city and the waterworks company over the ques- ton of rates. This includes your rates and everybody's rates in the city of Bir- mingham that uses water The city Is trying first: To establish its right to fix or regulate water rates at all; and, in the second place, to get cheaper rates. These questions have not yet been settled, and will not be until the courts have deter mined them. Meanwhile, consumers must be as patient as they can be under zthe circumstances.
 ''I have advised several consumers in old Birmingham, who have heretofore been on the fiat rate, and who have been put on meter basis by the company re- gently to make a tender to the company of what they owed on a flat basis, of what they have paid heretofore, and on refusal of the company to accept the amount to let the company turn off their water, pay the one dollar fee necessary to get the water turned on and bring suit for damages.
 "The waterworks company seems to be proceeding on the theory that the recent contract signed by majority of the commissioners is in foree although il was turned down by the vote of the peo- pie. My own opinion is that the old flat rates are in force and that the water company cannot charge you any amount in excess Of your old fiat rates. If you and other citizens similarly situated will take this position and bring suits against the company for charging you in excess of the old fiat rates, 1 think you will make them have a pretty lively time and bring them back to reasonable attitude. On the other hand, l expect that the city will take action on it's own part 10 en- force It's rights
