The Board of Health held a regular
meeting In the Council chamber last ulglit
and was attended by President Spalding
Secretary Scanlan, Health Ofllcer Miles
and Messrs, McIIale, Miles and Broughall.
The epidemic committee reported that
during tho two weeks preceding the meet
ing nine deaths and one case of diphtheria
were reported.
M. 5L Burke, Esq., appeared before the
Board and asked that the application of a
Uazletou man for a permit to establish a
sausage factory on est Centre street be
reconsidered. The Board had denied the
application, deciding such establishments
could only be located on the outskirts of
the town. Mr. Burke stated that tho ap
plicant was willing to take a license on
the condition that if the factory became a
nuisance In any way operations would be
suspended at once. Ho gave assurances
that there would be no noise from machln
ery, or stench, smoke or other nuisance,
and that nmpleewerage would be provided
for all ofl'al.
The Board declined to reopen the case iu
view of past experience of the people with
such establishments, especially the Lessig
case.
A letter from J. J. Frauey was read. I4
called attention to a nuisance at tho corner
of Pear alley and Oak street and the writer
gavo notice that if the Board would not
take immediate action the matter would be
brought to the attention of the State Board
of Health. He also called attention to the
draluage of water past his residence, cor
of Coal and Jardin streets.
The communication was referred to the
street committee of the Borough Council.
President Spalding said he observed that,
Council had taken no steps to enforce the
ordinances relating to the restriction of
roaming dogs, or the muzzling of th
cauines. Under these circumstances, h
said, the people could only hold theTSmin'
ell responsible should hydrophobia becom
prevalent, as the Board of Health had do
all lu Its power In the matter. Hydropl
bia, he said, was caused by the dogs noi
having a sufficient supply of water and
food, and there is little doubt that room for
this cause is plentiful iu the town during
summer mouths.
Health Officer Miles made an emphasized
address on the Indifference shown by some
people to nuisances on their premises and
laid stress upon the indifference of Mr.
Michael Maloue, a member of tho. Board
of Health. Mr. Miles said that this gen
tleman's properties at the corner of Oak
street and Pear alley, in the Fourth ward,
and on "the rocks," where the refute Hows
down to the Lehigh Valley railroad to such
an extent that the place has been chris
tened "the falls of filth," should be at
tended to at once. Mr. Miles said that
Mr. Maloue's properties were not the only
sources ot trouble on "the rocks," but Mr.
Maloue was the only owner who refused to
glvo any satisfaction. One of tho respon
sible parties has commenced to put iu
sewerage and another has promised to
begin work next week, but Mr. Maloue
met the complaint with the remark that
the people could turn their faces towards
Turkey Run and that they have no business
ou the railroad tracks. Mr. Miles said tho
newspapers had been pounding him on ac
count of tho filthy state of "the rocks,"
and he did not blame them for complain
ing, but he thought it about time that the
real parties to blame iu the matter should
receive some pounding. If Mr. Malone Is
not maintaining nuisances, he should at
teud the meetings of the Hoard and defend
himself.
It was tho sentiment of tho Board that
the Health Ofllcer should proceed against
everybody maintaining a nuisance, whether
It bo a member of the Board or anybody
else.
The Health Officer also stated that his
attention was called to the case of Daniel
Maokey, residing at the comer of Cherry
street aud Pear alley, who Is suffering from
typhoid-pneumonia, with a possibility of
typhoid fover developing. The sewerage of
the house was iu bad condition, and Mr.
Milos ordored the owner of the promises to
put It In repair. The owner said he would
do so in a few days, when tho new water
works would bo put 1u operations, but Mr.
Miles gave him two hours lu which to do
tho work, with a uotlco that If it was not
don the officer would put man on the job
and oharge tho expense against the prop
erty. The owner oomplled with the uotlco.
The Board sanctioned the officer's notion iu
the matter.
Somo of the members made reference to
tho fuot that the Board was evidently not
considered a part of the looal government,
a. it luul not been iuvlted to partake in tho
Fourth of July demonstration.

The failure of William Navltskle, the
East Centre street shoe merchant, is the
one absorbing topic just now nmong tho
shoe dealers of tho town and shoe firms
who make sales In tho town.
Navltskle was looked upon as a careful
business man nud was supposed not to be
encumbered. Indeed, his stock was looked
upon as the largest in the town. Some
fixed It at from 58,000 to 510,000.
Last Tuesday Deputy Sheriff Roberts
closed the storo on nu execution issued by
Navltskie's brother on a judgment for
51,-33. This caused no little surprise and
It Is now alleged that this judgment was
fraudulent, aud it is also contended by tho
creditors of Navltskle that ho has been
disposing of his stock in a very suspicious
manner.
On Wednesday tho representatives of
several large shoe firms camo into" town
aud took steps to contest the Navitskle
judgmeut,and protect their claims. J. C.
.Farrell, a Wllkesbarre shoe man, was the
first to take determined action. His claim
Is in tho neighborhood of ST00. Early
Thursday morning ho and his counsel, M.
M. Burke, Esq., appeared at tho Pottsville
court aud commenced attachment pro
ceedings under tho Act of 18G0. Tho papers
filed allege that the debt was contracted
fraudulently aud that the defendant has
been fraudulently secreting and disposing
of his goods, and that tho judgment of
Navltskie's brother is not duo and owing.
but simply given for the purpose of de
frauding creditors.
Thursday night Mr. Farrell, iu company
with Constable Bolaud, went to Mahanoy
City and there fouud iu tho possession of
ono Frank Bucolo, a former shoe dealer of
that place, eleven cases of miners' boots
which had been shipped by Farrell to Na
vltskie. The statements mado by Bucolo
aud Navitskle ns to how these goods got
from Shenandoah to Mahanoy'City do not
agree, and there Is every reason to believe
that Farrell has tapped one of the most
glaring frauds ever perpetrated in this seo
tiou for somo tiiuo.
Bucolo was arrested on oath of Farrell,
charging larceny of the cases of shoes
fouud at his place aud was put under 5100
ball by Justice Lawlor for trial at court,
This morning Elsenhuth & Miller, shoo
dealers of Orwigsburg, through their
counsel, M. M. Burke aud Charles E,
Breckous, Esqs., commenced attachment
proceedings against Navitskle to recover a
claim of 5-00. Similar proceedings have
also been commenced by the Lebanon Shoo
Company for 5250 and John Northrop, o
Vineland, N. J., for 5423. Several Now
Euglaud firms aro in for large amounts,
Sage & Co., of Boston, having been caught
for something like 5"00 and another Boston
firm for 5132.
IsavltsKie s liabilities are said to aggre
gate between 5G.009 and 58,000. GeorgoJ,
Wadlinger, Esq , of Pottsvlllo, is his
counsel.
J. H. Pomeroy, Esq., represents Elliott
& Sons, who have claims amounting
several hundred dollars against Navltskle,
Mr. Pomeroy made an oft'ort to find the
goods of this firm in Navltskie's store, but
tailed. As the goods were but recently
sold to Navitskio it is a mystery how they
could have disappeared so suddenly.
