ORDINANCE TO
ESTABLNHASH
BUREAU IS IN
Another Law Would Proven
Any Possibility of Short
Weight

Ordinances to prevent any possi-
bility of short weight in the sale of
coal, coke, sand, lime, stone, junk
and other commodities bought and
sold by bulk and establishing a
bureau of garbage and ash inspec-
ton were the two most important
introduced in Council on first read
ing to-day.
The first ordinance is one which
is favored by Harry d. Reel, City
Inspector of Weights and Measures,
as 1t furnishes the necessary legisla-
ton to prosecute any dealer who
does not give full weight in selling
commodities by the wagonload. The
ordinance was introduced by Mayor
Bowman, and requires that on each
wagon used in the sale of coal, coke,
sand, stone, lime and junk must
have the weight of the wagon
stamped or painted on it. The We
hicles must be weighed at least once
a year on the city scales under the
supervision of Inspector Reel and
the law becomes effective January 1.
After the ordinance had been read
Mayor Bowman and the other Com
missioners held a short discussion
of the need of enforcing the laws in
case of short weight and measure.
1t is understood in this connection
an ordinance to prevent forestalling
in city markets may be considered
Four Inspectors
The legislation authorizing the or
ganization of garbage and ash in
spection bureau provides for one
chief inspector at a salary of $4,000
a year and three assistants at ST.
200 a'year. whose duty it shall be to
enforce all city laws regarding the
collection and disposal of ashes, rub.
bish, dead animals and garbage.
Commissioner Gross presented an
ordinance authorizing the Park De-
partment to purchase a strip of
ground eleven by thirty feet at Elm
and Sixteenth streets at a cost of not
more than 5000. The plot is owned
by E. A. Hefiefnger and will prob
ably be planted similar to the one at
Cameron and Paxton streets.
Other ordinances introduced pro-
vide for paving of an alley eight feet
wide between Wood and Fifth streets
and placing an arc light at Twelfth
and Forster streets and at Twentieth
and Market streets.
Lights For Riverside
The ordinance introduced last
week by Commissioner Lynch, pro-
viding for maintenance of twenty
one lights at Riverside. now the
Fourteenth ward, was passed finally.
together with the one increasing the
salary of the clerk in the Health
Bureau. Commissioner Lynch called
for passage his resolution permit
ting the Highway Department to
construct the concrete steps at the
Market street approach to Summit
street. Commissioner Gorgas opposed
the move, stating he could not vote
favorably unless he was assured the
city had the legal right to do this
work. Commissioner Lynch agreed
to confer with City Solicitor Fox be-
fore proceeding. The resolution was
passed with Commissioners Gorgas
voting against It.
