MANS DEATH HELD
DUE To CONDITIONS.

W. f. Wagner, $50 Garfield Drive, de-
clared that a man who had fallen into
Pleasant run contracted an illness whlch
resulted in his death, while c. e. Neiger,
1874 Cottage avenue, said the odor from
the stream had made it necessary for
him to close his home three times this
year.
James a. Lowry. superintendent OF
parks, who attended the meeting, said
the complaint was justified.
The stream passes through Garfield
park, making the matter of interest to
the board of park commissioners.
In resolutions which were adopted the
citizens called upon the state and city
health departments to take steps to elm
mate the pollution.
The state conservation department may
also be called upon, it was said today,
because 1t has jurisdiction over indus
trial concerns which pollute streams TO
the detriment of fish and other animal
life.
