2~~ j^r j?I lADSWORTH'S GAG ON MINORITY AGAIN Packers' Champion and Ally Take Meat Bill for Revi- sion. Journal Special Servioe. Washington, June 18.Speaker Can non had a conference with President Boosevelt late last night regarding the beef amendment to the agricultural bill providing for the inspection of meat and meat products in the packing houses. After leaving the White Houso the speaker declared that in his judg ment the adjournment of congress will not be delayed beyond July 1, and that the contest over the meat inspection bill would not delay the adiournment. The house committee on agriculture today authorized Chairman Wadsworth and Eepresentative Brooks of Colorado to amend the meat inspection provision in the agricultural bill to meet the views of President Boosavelt after which the measure will be submitted to the president by Speaker Cannon. It is stated that not all of the presi dential suggestions will be accepted, if the wishes of the committee are com plied with. The discussion today made it plain there was no objection to eliminating the court provision as suggested by the president, also* that his wishes that the civil service commission furnish the inspectors will be complied with. Minority Is Ignored. There is opposition to placing the date of manufacture on the label and to inserting the words "in the .judg ment of the secretary of agriculture, thus making the secretary the final au thority regarding the measure. There was some criticism by mem bers of the committee as to the method to be employed in handling the meas ure, as no republican members who pre sented minority views nor any demo cratic members of the committee are to nave anything to do with redrafting the substitute. Pure Pood Bill, Too. I is probable, however, that the meat inspection proposition will not be brought up in the house until Wednes day, as the pure food bill will be taken and disposed of either Tuesday or Wednesday. Whichever measure is ready to be presented to the house will be considered Tuesday, and if the pare food bill comes up Tuesday, the meat inspection bill will be taken up the following day.

NO RAISE I N PRICES Packers Deny They Seek Revenge by Gouging Consumer. Journal Special Service. Chicago, June 18.The Chicago meat prices are not likely to advance, despite the fact that prices have been raised in New York, dealers in touch with the local situation agree in be lieving. The New York reports that prices there have been put up as a re sult of the packing house agitation are laughed at by local authorities. The meat market in Chicago is low er rather than higher as a result of the packing house inquiry," said Adolph Arnold, president of Arnold Bros., yes terday. "There is some scaroity of mutton and lamb owing to the demand for them, but beef is lower than it was. There is no logical reason, why the packing house investigation should have raised meat prices Jor it has had effect of decreasing the demand." W. Foster, president of the 0. W. Foster company, said: "Owing to the law of supply and demand mutton and lamb aie a little higher than they were a fortnight ago, but beef Is somewhat lower. There is no rise of prices in sight in Chicago." in the house of commons to ay. Mr Hicks-Beach asked War Sec retary Haldane what quantity of Chi cago canned meat was supplied to the troops in South Africa during the late war and what proportion of enteric deaths ought more properly to have been described as due to ptomaine poi soning. The secretary replied that more than half the canned meat supplied to tho British troops in South Africa during the late war came from the United States. He could not say how much of this came from Chicago. The war office knew nothing of any cases of enteric fever which could be classed as pto maine poisoning.

Washington, June 18.Senator Mo Cumber of North Dakota has received a communication signed by the presi dent of the Superior Board of Trade. T. J. Roth, and its secretary, A. N. Lent, regaiding the Minnesota wheat inspection question, and the figures furnished by Mr. Crumpton on that subject. The letter was written on the authority of the board of directors, and 7as reaS to th^na^^y and ^vW 4e^ into the Congressional Record. The sen ator urged the investigation as in the interest of all parties concerned. The writers of the letter say they do not vouch for the accuracy of the 26,- 000,000 bushel statement or Mr. Crump ton, or for any other figures that have been used during the controversy. "Nor do we contend," says the let ter, "that the purloining is to exceed possibly 6,000 000 bushels, but it is no doubt oil sufficient quantity to justify an investigation by the interstate com merce commission. We would strongly urge such an investigation, and will take pleasure in extending to you the assistance of persons here who have been familiar with grain operations for several years." The friends of the present: Minne sota inspection lay great stress upon some error claimed in arriving at the figures of this large average, but this is only one of the vulnerable points. They say nothing of their attempts to cover up this stealing by shipping out wheat as screenings, but an investiga tion will bring out these facts, as we can name men who know this to be true, and who will give dates, weights, numbers of cars, persons to whom sola and prices paid. They say nothing about the pres sure brought to bear on Mr. Crumpton to get him to change his figures and to retract sworn testimony given by him in a, circuit court before Judge Parish. Mr. Crumpton is now a mem ber of the Duluth Board of Trade, hav ing paid $2,500 for his membership, and they, the Duluth board, might make this a serious matter for his business and membership.

Mukden and Antung are nominally opened to foreign trade, but foreigners are not permitted-to go inland without Japanese passes, while many Japanese merchants, miners-and promoters are allowed to travel the country free.

BY I Will Furnish Power for ,a PJant to Contain Nine Immense Turbines Work Is Being Pushed and Is Being Done*in a Most Thoro Manner. Special to The Jou&al. Sault Ste. Marie, Mich., Ju&e 18* At the Soo a work involving a consid erable transformation of the rapids of St. Mary's river is under way. This is the construction of a greater water power canal for the Chandler-Dunbar company. Altho many months have al ready been consumed in the work, it will doubtless not be until the end of the year that the proiect will be com pleted The undertaking means much to the Soo. The company now, with its present development, ifc furnishing the city with electricity for public and pri vate lighting and is supplying power to numerous small manufacturing con cerns. The new plant wilL have nine turbines, each one with a greater power capacity than the entire plant now in' operation, and the old plant will re main in commission as well. The new plant is founded upon solid rock in the bed of the river, and has nothing but rock, cement and steel in its construction. Just now the prin cipal work is the excavating for the powerhouse and tailrace and the con struction of the walls of the permanent dam. The force employed is not so large by a considerable number as last year, but the amount of work is prac tically as great. This is because, of an electric trolley system installed this spring with the idea of superseding steanv power in the removal of rock and earth from the excavation. The wing dam which marks the boun dary line tor the tailrace on the north is constructed entirely of rock taken from the excavation. A nortion of the excavation for the powerhouse is down to grade, and within a short time the three monster forms thru which the water from the turbines will flow will be placed in position.

Chicago, June 18.John Callan O'Loughlin, the Chicago Tribune's Washington correspondent, in a dis patch published by that paper this morning, says: President Roosevelt and Secretary Hitchcock are seeking authority from congress to prevent any further disposal of coal and oil lands belonging to the government in order to protect the American people from the consecfriences of another coal strike. As a result of conferences between these officials and Senator Spooner, the latter will introduce a joint resolution in the senate this week, authorizing the president to make an examination of all public lands with a view to establish ing which have coal, oil or building ma terials thereon, and to withdraw from settle|nent such as possess these resour ces. It is intended to urge action before the close of this session so that the in terior department may proceed at once. Extensive Goal Lands. Secretary Hitchcock estimates that there is between 40,000,000 and 44,000,- 000 acres,of public land underlaid with coal veins* which in many instances are thirty feet tthiek ,The oil and gas mines on government and Indian lands are rich and extensive. The Standard Oil is searching by every means it can \tse to gain possession of them and thus continue-its monopoly*of these import ant resources. The government is powerless, under present conditions, to interfere in a coal strike, and is impotent to arrest the- monopolistic policy of the Standard Oil company. But should the Spooner .joint resolution *be enacted, the gow irnment wlll be in a position in time of emergency to operate its own fuel mines. and-9art{ally, at least, relieve the peo ple from the consequences of a strike or the rapacity of grasping corpora tions. An official close to President Roose velt connded to the correspondent the reasons which prompted the latter to enter upon a policy which applies the principle of government ownership to necessities. In the great coal strike of 1903, the president found himself un able to do more under the constitution and the laws than to act as mediator. Fortunately, he was successful. If he had not been, tho, rather than stand idly by and witness^ widespread dis tress, he intended, under rights of humanity and eminentbroaddoeth main, to seize the coal mines, place the late Lieutenant General Scofield in charge as receiver and operate them for the benefit of the people. During last spring, when there was danger of a second great coal strike, the president let it*be known he woujd not hesitate to carry out his plan of a receivership if he were forced to do so by the failure of the operators and min nea $ wintr-^- $500,000 FIRE IN ST.

Tongues of flame darted from the upper windows and in a few moments later this portion of tne roof fell in with a great crash. A huge piece of the cornice fell out, flaming, into the street. Almost directly beneath it were several firemen working on an exten sion ladder directing a line of hose. A cry went up from the watching crowd. It seemed that the men had met death. But in a few moments the smoke cleared away and the men were still seen on their ladder, having clung on during the shower of fire and debris. The falling of the roof was the turn ing point in favor of the firemen on the Seventh street side of the building* The torrent of water from the water tower had its effect and men were soon abl arranging a settlement.

Braved Death in Ctas. Many attempts were made to enter the Ryan Annex and plug the gas main in the basement, but the firemen had to be carried out, so overcoming were the clouds of smoke and the fumes of gas near tho broken main. It was shortly after 6 p.m. when Third Assistant Chief McNally suc ceeded in making his way into the basement, then nearly filled with water, and plugged the broken pipe. From that time on the firemen made rapid headway in their battle. During the afternoon every ambu lance and police patrol in the city was pressed into service to carry prostrated firemen to hospitals and their homes. Volunteers from the crowd of^ onlookers were quick to offer their assistance in carrying exhausted firemen on stretch-, ers to the conveyances. There were many narrow escapes from death. Men were overcome on high ladders and had to be assisted to the ground. Occasionally a man would drop in his tracks and others would have to suspend work and carry the exhausted man to safety. During the afternoon strong hot coffee and sand wiches were served to the firemen. Half Million Fije Loss. Half a million dollars is probablv a conservative estimate of the total loss. The interior of the building and its contents was ruined, tho the men of the salvage corps fought their way into the burning structure and perhaps saved some of the stock of the Palace Cloth ing company.

He sayg a person who has been dead twenty minutes was brought back to life by manipulation of the heart. The heart has actually been stimu lated to action one or two days after death," said the doctor, "yet one or two minutes after the cessation of the heart is time enough to .justify a physician in opening the chest and squeezing the heart, much as one would a sponge, fo renew its action. "In illustration of this let me cite HP ^X *^S^^- a ca^ of "a child of "Brighton, England, I ShS'wirth^Mt only last year, who was pronounced dead by the attending physicians, and the coronor was sent for. The child had been dead supposedly for five hours, when the coroner arrived, yet the child at that time raised its hands and the heart beat and there was life for several hours -afterward.
