today the capture of Torreon by the

Iwithholding the news from the pub-

Itbut the temperament of the Mexican
lpcpulace was such that news of a dis-
aster like the fall of Ton-con might
easily start an avalanche of public
opinion against the administration.

W
The fifth in the series of public iecI- ,
lures under the direction of the edu-
cational committee of the Woman's
Municipal 'lloogue was given in the
City Hall, last night by Clinton .Pcl
ham Darlington. inspector of municipal
incinerating plants in «New York city,
and Richard 1.. Witness“ also of New
York.
Mr. Darlington spoke of thé means
employed to dispose of the city refuse
from the earliest times until the pres-
ent. The great London plague, in
1600, in which over 100.000 peopielost
their lives, was due to this improper
disposal. The common house fly and
the rat, the latter feeding almost on-
iireiy upon garbage, were then as nou',
two of the most active spreadors or
disease. During some recent excava~
tions in an ancient city of Asia Minor,
the earth was upturned at a place out-
side the city wall that had been used
for centuries as a deposit for city re-
fund. This earth was still saturated
with the sickening odor and the up.
turning pf the soil after two thousand
years caused an epidemic of typhoid!
It is conceded' that the municipal
dump heap in most cities today is not
only a source of great annoyance but
a breeding place for innumerable flies.
Mr. Russell dealt with the most prac-
ing of this waste. that is. by inciner-
ation, giving in detail a description of
the various plants in use in this coun-
try nnd ill somevcountries of Europe
He explained that it is not practical in
small places to make municipal profit
from this incineration. The cost of an
incinerating plant. run at a high tom;
peroture of 1,200 degrees. so as to e:-
elude all possibility of snooping odor
sand dollars: the cost of buildings.
etc would be from two to four thou
sand dollars more. This plant can be
run at a. cost of one thousand dollars
a year and requires the serviced of
one man only. Such o. plant has re.
cently been installed in the Waldorf
Astoria. The waste papers, boxes.
etc, supply a large part of the mate-
rial for running this plant. All dan-
ger of odor is entirely obliterated.
