Eight irate butchers appeared in
the council chamber this morn
ing to protest against being pub
lished to the world as dealers
who doctor their meat as q result
of the investigation of the city
chemist Tuesday.
Manager Adams of the CONNER
cial market declared there must
be some mistake as no freezum
had ever been in his market. Ha
thought the mayors department
had not been giving the butchers
a fair deal, as they had not been
notified samples were being
taken 80 they could keep some
also and have some other chem
ist analyZe them.
Herman Martin said as taxpay-
ers the meat dealers, who were re-
putable citizens, had right to
fair treatment, and they we're
not getting 1t. He declared
someone would have to pay for
publishing the names Of meat
dealers as using freeZum who
were not guilty.
Chemist Pitchford said he
found sulphates in the meat, and
in some of the samples found
maggots within an hour after it
was bought.
Later in the day one of the
dealers brought up a sample of
the seasoning he used in his
sausage and Chemist Pitchford
found it was the seasoning that
contained the sulphates, and he
told the mayor that he believed
some of the nine dealers we're
using the seasoning innocently,
not knowing what it contained.
The mayor advised that no
prosecutions be made in such
cases. Some dealers, however,
were using cracker flour and po-
tato flour to add weight to their
sausage and these will be prose-
cuted.

 TAKEN HERE WITH DAGGER
Runs Afoul of Policeman Valenzuela
 and Lands in City Jail.

When Francisco DianZe got a glimpse of the demolished front of a Washington street store late Sat urday said store being in the pro cess of receiving a brand new front in exchange for the old one, he gained an idea that he was back in old Mexico fighting with the insur- gents. He still wore the typical blouse affected by many of the rebels. having only arrived here few days previously on well earned vacation from his vocation of shooting down his fellow citizens
 Diapze didn't wait long after dis covering that demolished front and began a systematic search for some Mexican federals supposed to be lurking in the vicinity. He didn find them, but instead he encoun- tered Policeman Alejo Valenzuela Of the police force. Valenzuela's uni form puzzled him for minute, but he determined he was no friend at any rate, and drew pretty dagger from his shirt front.
 When VaIenzueIa and McGrath landed Dianze in the city jail they learned that he had been engaged in the insurgent army as a flight ing man. and that he laid claim to being a bad man while down there. although he didn't mean any great harm up here He will be given a hearing this afternoon be- fore Police Judge Thomas on charge of carrying concealed deadly weapons.
