WOULD LEGALIZE
GHTER HOUSE
"Scheme to Pass Measure to
That Effect Now in the
Council.
TENOR' OF THE ORDINANCE
It Would Bender Void the Efforts
Kbw Being 3Iade to Remove a
Nuisance of "Wliich Ful-
rf ton People Complain.
Under the guise of an ordinance regu
lating the slaughtering of animals and
the inspection of meats, the Health and
Police Committee of the City Council, as
represented by Councllmen Zimmerman
and Sharkey, yesterday morning adopted
a resolution recommending the passage
of a measure which many residents of
South Portland declare is merely a crude
attempt to legalize the operations of the
notorious slaughter-house of the Pacific
States Packing Company. The matter
will come up before the General Council
next Wednesday afternoon.
The proposed ordinance is alleged to
have been drafted by the Board of Health,
and when the question of its adoption
came before the committee, several mem
bers of the board were on hand to add
weight to the Idea of its passage by the
.moral effect of their presence. At least.
It had that appearance, as none of them
seemed to realize the exact situation.
Section 3 of the proposed ordinance sets
forth that from and after its passage, "it
shall be unlawful for any person, firm
or corporation to slaughter, sell or offer
to sell the meat of any animal not con
Hldered game, Intended for human food.
within the City of Portland, unless tho4,
same nas Deen inspected and approved by
the officers appointed and empowered by
the City Board of Health, or unless such
meat bears the mark, stamp or tag in
dicative of Inspection by the Bureau of
Animal Industry. United States Depart
ment of Agriculture; provided, however,
that this section shall not be construed
to prohibit producers residing beyond the
limits herein provided from killing ani
mals and selling the same within the city,
but no such animals or parts of animals
shall be sold until the same shall have
been inspected by the inspector in such
places as may be designated by the City
Board of Health."
Some of the Provisions.
Section 4 refers to the official tags that
must be placed upon each carcass, and
section 5 provides a penalty for removing
or destroying the same.
It is in section 6, however, where the
Ballent feature is found. It provides as
fellows: "That the Pacific States Packing
Company be known as 'The Portland
ADatflr, where animals may be taken
for slaughter and be Inspected, and that
not more than the following prices may
be charged and collected by the person or
corporation who now are or may here
after be operating the Portland abattoir,
or such other place or places as may be
affixed by the Board of Health for slaugh
tering animals intended for human food
within the City of Portland, to-wlt: Cat
tle, 50 cents; veal calves with skin on, 15
cents; with skin off, 25 cents; hogs, sheep
and goats, 15 cents; for cold-storage of
same: Cattle, 50 cents; veal calves, hogs,
sheep and goats, 15 cents, respectively.
All animals at the above abattoir will bo
inspected by the Government meat in
spector stationed there."
The ground upon which the Pacific
States Packing Company Is situated be
longs to Councilman Zimmerman, and he
leases the property to the corporation for
k valuable consideration. About three
weeks ago separate actions were brought
against the company for maintaining a
slaughter-house within the city limits con
trary to law. and also for maintaining a
nuisance, and these cases are still pending
In the local Police Court. These suits are
the natural sequence of Innumerable pro
tests from residents of the vicinity of
Fulton, near where the packing plant Is
situated, requesting the municipal author
ities to abate the nuisance involved In
its continued operation.
Theory of the Defense.
The theory of the defense is that the
operations of the concern Is protected by
ordinance No. 9611. adopted February 12,
1S9G, and it is alleged that Councilman
Zimmerman claims that this ordinance is
in the nature of a franchise, granting
him a right to maintain the establish
ment, and that it cannot be taken from
him without compensation of some sort.
As a matter of fact, the ordinance was
repealed December 2, 1S97, by the adoption
of ordinance No. 10560, according to As
sistant City Attorney Fitzgerald, who is
prosecuting the cases against the pack
ing company. Fitzgerald was shown the
proposed ordinance yesterday afternoon
and stated that it was the first he knew
anything about it. After reading it care
fully, he said there was no doubt it was
Intended to legalhte the operations of the
packing company, so far as possible, and
this opinion was concurred in later by
Attorney illlton W. Smith, who Is also
Interested in the efforts to restrain the
packing company from committing any
further nuisance.
Fitzgerald did not deny that the Council
hay the power to pass an ordinance regu
lating the slaughter of animals within
Its corporate limits, but stated that in
the event any concern was carrying on
operations thereunder to the detriment
of public health. It became amenable to
the state laws, and could be prosecuted
for 'maintaining a nuisance, no matter
how much protection might be afforded by
any. city ordinance. la addition, he felt
certain the Board of Health could abate
any such nuisance under section 44, of or
dinance No. 13.SS5.
Section 7 of the proposed ordinance pro
vides that all animals intended for human
food la this city shall undergo an ante
mortem examination before being allowed
-to pasa to the slaughtering-room, and a
post-mortem examination on the floor of
the slaughtering-room. Provision is made
also for the disposition of carcasses found
to he diseased. Section S sets aside a
certain time for slaughtering and Inspec
tion, and section 9 makes provision for
the appointment of a. meat and livestock
Inspector at a salary of $125 a month; an
assistant at $100 a, month, horse and
buggy for the official use of the inspec
tor and his assistant at a cost not to
exceed $40 a month, and incidentals
amounting to not more than $100 ao'ear.
Section 10 makes it necessary for the
Inspector to be a qualified veterinarian;
section 11 proiides for the manner In
which his reports shall be made to the
City Board of Health, and section 12
clothes -the inspector and his assistant
with power to make arrests. The remain
ing four sections of the ordinance are
unimportant as affecting the questions
at Issue.
' Makes It- Clearlng-lTousc.
It was intimated by a member of the
City 'Board -of Health, whose attention
was called to the fact that Councilman
Zimmerman was nominally the ruling
t-ulrlt in the Pacific States Packing Cota-
pany. and that to sake the concern a
clearing-house or ail the, seats entering
the city would have the effect or clothing
Its methods -with the garb of legality, that
In every other respect the law was a
good one. and that the name of the Pa
cific States Packing Company was In
serted as abattoir merely as a sop for the
Councilman from the Sixth "Ward, as
otherwise he -would oppose the measure
In committee and Insure its certain de
struction. It was explained that when
the matter comes before tb,e general
Council next Wednesday It could be so
amended as to provide for the selection
of a -slaughtering place In accordance
with the discretion of the Board of
Health, but It seems more than likely that
the astute Councilman has a shade the
best of the proposition.
Miltoti W. Smltti was outspoken In his
denunciation of the measure, and says
thare is no doubt an unfair advantage Is
sought to he taken to legalize the oper
ations of the packing concern. It Is said
that Dr. William Jones, of the City Board
of Health, was opposed to the provision
in the proposed ordinance making the In
stitution the abattoir of all the meats
oomlng into Portland, but if so he was
toot on hand to protest when the subject
came up In committee yesterday.
City Offenders Before
Municipal Judge Hogue.
U. O. Hickel did not know until he
was arraigned before Municipal Judge
Hogue yesterday morning that only a se
lect few might smoke inside the Lewis
and Clark Exposition grounds. It was
fully explained to him at that time, that
no matted how many others were puf
fing clouds of dense smoke from pipes,
cigars or cigarettes, that he must, if "so
ordered, throw away his pipe or cigar and
cease to smoke.
After this explanation had been made
to Hickel, he was allowed to go without
a fine, as it was stated that his children
would be deprived of things they might
need were he made to pay out money.
Hickel was arrested by Deputy Sheriff
Word and Detective Donahue, who yes
terday swore he was drunk, and that he
resisted them. Hickel declared he was
not drunk, and said the reason he re
sisted was that he saw many others
smoking there, and saw no reason why he
should not.
Don't take a woman as a business
partner," Is the advice of P. C. Mattox.
who was fined $10 yesterday by Judge
Hogue for using abusive language toward
Mrs. Lena Potter.
Mattox and Mrs. Potter were interested
In the Forestry Inn. a rooming-house at
Twenty-fifth and Upshur streets. As
matters progressed, the partners fell out.
They quarreled. It was admitted by them
during the hearing yesterday, and finally
ended with a red-hot war of words that
led to the arrest of Mattox. He used very
ungentlemanly language toward her, Mrs
Potter testified. Mattox could not recall
just what he said, but hardly thought
he used any Insulting phrases.

SUSIE ESTES' DECLARATION
Because Her Attorney Was Xot on
Time She Thought He Had
Deserted Her Case After
Securing His Fee.
Susie Estes, who appeared before Judge

suit against William G. Estes, created a
scene by declaring that her attorney, Al
lan R. Joy, had deserted her at a critical
moment
When the case was called for trial, the
Court Clerk. Marlon Johnson, Informed
the court:- "Your Honor, Mr. Joy, the at
torney in this case, said he had to go to

I paid him $35, and' he promised to get
me a divorce. This morning he wanted
me to pay blm $10 more, and now he has
quit me. I have his receipt"
Judge Frazer ordered the case con
tinued until 2 o'clock, at which hour Mr.
Joy and his fair client were on hand. Mr.
Joy explained that the misunderstanding
was due to the fact that costs were due
to the court amounting to about $10. which
she was required to pay. The costs were
paid, the trial was proceeded with, and
the divorce was granted.
The litigants were married in Portland,
July 6, 1903. Mrs. Estes testified that her

ness and threatened to do her great bodily
harm, and also that he gambled his means
and did not support her. She was grant

life Insurance made payable to her, of
which his mother is the beneficiary. Bran

Comes Up Again for Trial Bcforo
Judge Scars and Jury.
The suit of Julia Hoffman against of
ficers and stockholders of the Portland
Guaranty Company, a defunct organiza
tion, to recover $15,000 on a note. Is on
trial before Judge Sears and a Jury.
The suit was begun nine years ago and
has been to the Supreme Court and
back.

Osmon Royal, John Corklsh. B. P. Fraser.
J. P. Rasmussen. Alfred Kummer, Thomas
Van Scoy and F. L. Posson. who were
Interested in the university, and also the
Portland Guaranty Company. The cor
poration was supposed to back the finan
cial affairs of the former, but the persons
who subscribed for its stock never paid
for it
Mrs. Wcrthelmer also held some land
as security, which she released, and an
original note was surrendered and a sec
ond note executed on an extension of
time to liquidate granted. Mrs. Hoff
man, as executor of the will of her hus
band, Lee Hoffman, deceased, bought the
note from Mrs. Werthelmer in November.
1S95, for full value. The note was not
paid and Mrs. Hoffman brought suit
against the defendants, Hablghorst and
others, in July, 1S95, and attached their
property. They made a defense that
they were not liable and were only sure
ties for the Portland Guaranty Company.
Judge Sears decided against their holding
that it meant something to sign a note.

COFFEE HEART
Very Plain In Some People.
A great many people go 03 suffering
from annoying ailments for a long lime
before they can get their own consent to
give up the indulgence from which their
trouble arises.
A gentleman in Brooklyn describes his
experience, as follows:
"I became satisfied some months ago
that I owed the palpitation of the heart,
from which I suffered almost dally, to the
use of coffee, (I had been a coffee drinker
for 30 years), but I found it very hard
to give up the beverage.
"I realized that I must give up the
harmful Indulgence in coffee, but I felt
the necessity for a hot table drink, and
as tea Is not to my liking, I was? at a
loss for awhile, what to do.
"One day I ran across a very sensible )
and straightforward presentation of the '
claims ot Postum Food Coffee, and was
so impressed thereby that I concluded to
give It a trial. My experience with it
was unsatisfactory till I learned how it
ought to be prepared by thorough boil
ing for not less than 15 or 20 minutes.
After I learned that lesson there was no
trouble. Postura Food Coffee proved to
be a most palatable and satisfactory hot
beverage, and I have used It ever since.
"The effect on ray health has been most
salutary. It has completely cured th e
heart palpitation from which I used to
suffer so much, particularly after break
fast, and I never have a return of It ex
cept when I dine or lunch away from
home and am compelled to drink the old
kind of coffee because Postum is not
served. I find that Postum Food Coffee
cheers and Invigorates while It porduces
no harmful stimulation." Name given by
Postum Co.. "Battle Creek, Mich.
There's a reason.
Ten days' trial proves an eye openr to
many.

When the sleeve linirigin a Boy's
Hercules" Suit wears out
around the arm hole and you sit
down to fix it, you do not patch
the old lining nor put in a new
lining.
All you do is to turn the sleeve
inside out, take your scissors, rip
off the worn lining and your work
is done; there are two linings in
a "Hercules" coat sleeve.
Two sleeve linings certainly wear
longer than one and it's surely
easier for you to rip out the old
lining than it is to put in a new
one; it seems unnecessary to say
more.
We have applied for a patent on this
double reinforced sleeve lining idea:
that's why all other Boys' Suits only
have one sleeve lining.
" Hercules " Suits shed rain like a
duck's back; every inch of cloth goes
through a process that makes it
shower proof, perspiration proof,
moth proof and thoroughly hygienic
and sanitary.
