WAR8HIP3 OF POWERS
TO PROTECT FOREIGNERS.
By Privnte Leased Wire.
St. Petersburg, July.23.—Patrols of
cavalry kept constantly on the move
up to noon today, which kept petty dis
order in check and has been effective
«p far In enforcing quiet In the entire
city.
Business |s going on spasmodically
In neurly all parts of the city, and It
Is hard to believe that thousands of
troop* are quartered here, so nicely
have they been distributed and con
cealed.
No attack on the government In re
taliation for dissolving the douma has
yet been formed. In fact, the revolu
tionaries were taken by surprise and
did not know what to do In the emer
gency. it Is agreed on all sides, how
ever. that they will soon take action,
the present quiet state of the city be
ing ominous.
Csn Rsly on Army.
That the army can now be relied
upon Is believed fully at the palace.
General Trepotf pledged blmsetf to
the czar on this point before the douma
was dissolved. The troops are given
every possible consideration. They are
well fed and In fact some regiments
live luxuriously compared.with the lot
of the common Russian soldier, and
■ they have money In their pockets to
•pend.
All this has been done at General
Trepnflfs orders In order to strengthen
the loyalty of the soldiers.
No ominous news hqg come from the
provinces yet today, although minor
disturbances continue as always. The
•trike talk heard In several cities Is the
most alarming symptom today, as It Is
feured a general strike, stopping the
telegraphs and railroads, would give
t.n opportunity for a widespread upris
ing.
Foreigners Are Lssving.
The douma has fled to Finland and
panic-stricken foreigners are leaving
the city on every train,
The representatives of the various
governments here held a conference
and decided to ask for warships and
>' 'barter vessels to take off foreign
residents In case of necessity.

Gon-mkyn and all the ministers have

torship must soon come.
Serious rioting In the capital has
begun. Hundreds of revolutionary agi
tators have been arrested In St. Peters
burg.
Troops Are Everywhere.
More troops have been hurried Into

stations, bridges across the river and

About midnight there were rumors

Judging from the sentiment among
leaders In the city government, Atlahta
wilt soon have strict municipal tnspec

this city, If not a public slaughtering

who proposed In council that aspeclai
committee be appointed to Investigate

committee for Tuesday afternoon at 3
o'clock, when a number of the local re

FOR CLEANER MEATS
COUNCIL COMMITTEE
TAKES UP THE FIGHT
highly In favor of city control of this
important factor in the city's health
department.
From Galveston the following letter
was received:
Walter A. Taylor, Atlanta, Ga.
“Dear Sir: Tours of the 18th Inst,
at hand. Dr. Trueheftrt, city health
physician, Instructs me to say that this
city has not an abattoir system, but In
tends to before long. Respectfully
yours, E. R. PAYNER,
"*- u V Inspector.”
m of the Des
Moines, Iowa, board of health writes
that the same condltolns as are stated
to exist In Atlanta were encountered
at Des Moines two years ago, and that
after a hard fight they now have nn
excellent system of Inspection. The
communication enlarges on the Im
portance of having such a system.
E. C. Laverty, secretary of the
Louisville board of health, states thst
for soms time the board of health has
been attempting to get a public abat
toir.
Municipal Control Safest.
Dr. J. C. Reinhart, health officer of
Toledo, Ohio, says In part: “My own
exeprience Is that a municipal controll
ed abattoir, provided you can receive
sufficient live beef to meet the city's
demands for fresh wholesome meats,
will be the safest measure to adopt
that would Insure your city Immunity
from the evil of which you spoke.'
These evils have been mentioned In
The Georgian.
From Cleveland there comes a full
report of the system In vogue tind some
good sound ndvlcc. C. \\. Eddy, chief
of tho Inspection division, Ip tho author
ut the communlcMtlon, and caution* not
to tush in and throw away too much
meat, but to go at It gradually, and
to gradually tighten the lines.
In Cleveland there are eleven slaugh
ter houses; all of these are made to
kill at certain times undar the guidance
of competent Inspectors. The cattle are
Inspected before and after being killed.
If anything abnormal turns up the
meat Is turned over to a veterinary
surgeon, and. If the conditions warrant,
the meat Is put In the fertiliser tank.
Dr. Eddy states that horrible condi
tions have been brought to light. That
In one month 95 hogs were thrown out
that had been put on «he market when
they had died of cholera and that In
another month nineteen old dairy cows
were found affected with tuberculosis.
