STEAL IN MILK
| ON HUGE SCALE
IS ALLEGATION
Inspector L. X. Efhl Says Few
Tests Show Standard Grade
Hints Use of Separators.

City Inspector L. X. Eihl said
today that no further arrests will
be made at this time in the cam
paign to force dairymen selling
milk in Rock Island to sell moth
ing but milk that comes up to the
8 per cent standard as set by law
and the Is per cent standard for
cream, and to stop the selling Of
polluted milk and unsanitary con-
dition at diaries.
E. j. Fletcher, manager of the
Anderson dairy, was fined $40 by
Magistrate D. J. Cleland in police
court Thursday night on a charge
of selling milk below the standard
grade. Mr.. Eihl announced yes
terday that of four tests taken of
milk sold by the Anderson dairy
nine came up to the standard and
one test only showed two-tenths of
one per cent butter fat.
Warnings have been made to all
other dairymen, and arrests will
follow any further violations, Mr..
Eihl said.
He asserted that of the tests
| taken of milk sold by the 81 dairy
men and distributors only a few
came up to the standard. In ad-
ditiOn a number of the tests show
ed the milk to be polluted, he de-
clared.
One of the dairymen was warn
ed to clean up his dairy within "a
hours or go out of business. Mr.
Eihl declared that if violations
continue along any line there will
be a number of the dairymen forced
to quit business in Rock, Island.
ct is astounding to know of the
low grades of milk and cream that
some of these dairymen have been
selling" Mr. Eihl said today
There has been quantities of milk
sold for feeding infants that is
practically without nourishment.
Contrary to the general belief
the dairymen who are selling low
grade milk do not water the prod
uct, but it has been strongly i'm
pressed upon me that they operate
cream separators in such way a:

butter fat.

ed and windows Broken.

Whisky stills should be watched
closely while In operation, and es-
pecial care should be taken than
too much heat is not applied.
The above instructions. or, more
properly speaking, warning was
given out by the police today.
There Is a reason.
Too much heat causes too much
boiling OF the mash, and too much
boiling causes large amount of
steam that might bring about an
explosion such as led to the arrest
of John Strwich, FOL Fourth ave-
nue.. at 4 o'clock yesterday after
noon.
John is now incarcerated in the
city Jail awaiting a full investiga-
ton of the occurrence at his home
yesterday afternoon when a mix
ture of raisin. potato and corn
mash was promiscuously scattered
throughout the neighborhood after
being thrown out Of an upstairs
window by the force of an ex-
plosion that completely wrecked
what might have been termed a
perfectly good whisky still.
At 1855 o'clock yesterday after
noon there came loud bang fol-
lowed by a deep rumbling from the
Strwich home, to say nothing Of
the amount of mash that came
hurting out of window. A
passerby heard the explosion and
saw a flash of flame, which led
him to believe that Vesuvius had
broken out in a new place. He ran
to the No. 2 fire station on Eighth
street between Third and Fourth
avenue. and gave the alarm. The
! company sent in a general alarm
and several fire trucks were soon
on the scene. However, the ex-
| plosion did not bring about fire
and the firemen found Patrolman
Gus Kruger of the west end beat
curiously inspecting the remains Of
a whisky still.
Kruger sent in call for Detec.
tives Dennis Bennett and Charles
Ginnane. When the two detectives
arrived they found nothing to de-
tect but an astoundingly strong
odor Of sour mash. Three barrels
of the mash were found.
! The still, a makeshift affair, com
posed Of a three-gallon gasoline
can with copper coils attached, wa:
found in a condition where it woulC
be of no more service in beating
national prohibition. The rount
oil lamp with which it had beer
heated had not stopped rolling
around the room, sour mash GOV
cred the walls and ceiling, and thu
only window to the room had beef
blown out and bits Of sour masl
lcould still be Seen falling in tn
distance, the police officers de
clared.
On closer inspection of the re

GERS decided that it had bee
wrecked on its maiden voyage O.

/, "All's WE'LL" the officers che
rused. ''If that still had not blow
, up, it would have served to manu-
facture a whole lot Of serviceabl
