Used Secret-Sefyiee Men.
It is not the wish of the president to
submit this report unless compelled to
do so. He is having it prepared, how
ever, se that it may be used if the
packing-house influence in either bouse
seems strong enough, to prevent satis
factory legislation. i.:''..,'-
No disclosures have been made re
garding 'the means the president has
used to secure the evidence upon which
the second report will be based. It i
believed,,. however, that hev
has mads
free use 'of the. secret-service bureau,
and that agents of that bureau have
been for, more than a month at 'wrb'rk
in Chicago. Enough evidence is. al
ready at hand, it is said,.to"'-justify .the
report, and it is still coming in.
Beealls Sinclair Challenge.
Just prior to the announcement that
the president had sent Messrs. Nei}l
and Beyibolds to Chicago for purpose's
of investigation, Upton Sinclair, whose
writings^have started this entire agita
tion, issued thru the columns of certain
New York. papers an open challenge to
Mr. Arinpur, calling -upon him:to insti
tute criminal proceedings against him
(Sinclair) if the statements made by
him were, untrue. In this letter'Sin
clair sums up the effect of the state
ments made by him in his book and
magazine articles as follows. I repeat
them, because they indicate the direc
tion which the supplemental report
from Neill and Reynolds will take. He
says:
"What'-ithey proye is that he himself,
of his own free will and -personal
knowledge is occupied in sending out,
selling and causing to be eaten by the
people of,. America millions of pounds
of diseased, tainted, preserved, dyed
and adulterated meat products every
week he lives.
Putrid Meat1
Embalmed.
The-selling for human food of the
carcasses -of cattle and swine which
have been condemned for tuberculosis.
of a sudden, horrible and agonizing
death."
Now, it. should be borne in mind that
the first":Neill-Reynolds report did not
deal with*any of these things.
Indeed, in the one brief and incon
spicuous report it makes to this branch
of the subject, it expressly states that
on "the alleged use of dyes, preserva
tives or chemicals, in the preparation of
cured meats, sausages and canned goods,
we are not yet prepared to report.'' and
even in this negative -way .it.makes.no
reference to tuberculosis or gangrened
carcasses, "or anything of that general
character.. Thus, so far as regards the
most outrageous phase of the practice,
it is well'to remember that nothing has
yet been brought out by the official in
vestigation.

and nauseating odors and which cannot
be departed from without suspicion that
an attempt is being made to suppress

to be considered by-the committee and
country.

It is admitted byrthe
abundance of testimony has been se
cured, makes it apparent ".that-the beef
packers ate fooling with edged tools
when they, undertake'to persuade 'con
gress to Tun counter lio the beef in
spection policy.
The president felt compelled to sub
mit the first Neill-Eeynolds report, the
attitude of the house committe on agri
culture being so antagonistic as to
threaten the defeat of the Beveridge
amendment. He may also feel com
pelled to submit this supplement report.
It has been his policy to ignore the
past misdeeds and hold the packers to

Thomas E. Wilson, representing the
Chisago packers, on the stand before
the committee yesterday, is an inter
esting and clever gentleman. He knows
his business and he was helped all day
long :b.y-Chairma Wadsworth. and Mr.
Lorlmer of Chicago, of the committee.
These last-named gentlemen have pre
pared a substitute for the Beveridge
amendment which is now printed. It
purports to be a committee substitute
and yet no member of the committee
excepting Wads worth and Lorimer ever
saw it until presented at yesterday's
hearing.' Of course^ it nullified all the
important provisions of the Beveridge
proposition, and is drawn generally in
the interest of the packers.
The committee appears to be pretty
well divided and nobody knows which
side will have a majority. No. matter
which side controls the committee, how
ever, there .will be a minority report
and the entire question will be threshed
out on the floor of the house, where the.
country may know about it.
It was estimated this morning that
the hearings might last for several
days* "The subject is to be gone into
exhaustively, and every available fact
brought out. It is still believed that
all minor differences can be easily com
posed, and that the great fight will
come over who is to pay cost of in
spection, the government or the pack
ers.
This question seems to be of more
importance and interest than all the
others combined. The president's epi
gram about "inspection from hoof to
can" has been taken up by his fol
lowers in the two houses, and it seems
that there is to be such-inspection, no
matter who pays for it
MAT REGRET APPEAL
Packers' Appearance Before Congress
Opens Gate for All.
Journal Special Servioe. 'j'
Washington, June 7.The packers'
appeal to congress for a hearing has
thrown the door wide open for other
revelations. Telegrams are reaching the
members of the committee from per
sons who claim to have evidence show
ing even more intolerable conditions in
mittee. It is expected, too, that Upton
Sinclair, author of "The Jungle," will
ask an opportunity-to press his views.
So it looks like the committee and
the packers have entered upon a road
Semnation$1,000,000
packing inter
ests that they have, suffered '.'an irre
parable injury'' as a: result of the re
cent disclosures, and there are mem
bers of congress who cannot under
stand why the packers are willing to
add to the agitation, and hurt them
selves still more grievously.
It is well known in Washington "that,
the packers could have come to an
agreement with the president regarding

hearing on the Neill-Reynolds meat in
spection report today. Thomas E. Wil
son, manager for Nelson Morris & Co.,
and representing the large Chicago
packinghouses continued his remarks
on the ^Beveridge amendment providing
for meat inspection.
Aside from the objections he had'
pointed out yesterday, Mr. Wilson said*
the only other serious objection was the
provision placing the cost of inspection
on tho packers.
Before discussing this objection Mr.
Wilson was questioned clpsely by
Messrs. Henry and Haskins about the
sections intervening between those he
found fault with last night and that re
garding the cost of inspection.
Have you been advised since we ad
journed yesterday?" asked Mr. Has
kins, "not to make further objec
tions?"
"No sir,'* replied Mr. Wilson. ''it
so happens that most of the objections
are in the first sections."
Lose $1,000,000 Already.
As to cost, Mr. Wilson said the paek^
ers had very serious objections to hav
ing this expense placed on them.
"We are now under an expense ag
regation a year for con
of animals,''' he said.
Neither the raisers nor producers
bear any of the loss on condemned
stock. It all falls on the packers," as
serted Mr. Wilson.
Mr. Scott suggested that it was gen
erally understood the packers so con
trolled the meat market that they
would be able to recoup themselves tho
cost of inspection.
"We could not," replied Mr. Wil
son. "The large packers kill only 50
per cent of the meat supply of the
country and do not control the mar
ket.
Denies Packers' Fault.
Representative Henry suggested that
the delinquencies of the packers had
placed, them in the present position and
inquired why should the packers object
to paying if the government is to "pull
you out of the hole."
Mr. Wilson objected to this view of
the case. It was not the fault of the
packers. The packers had sent men
into every hamlet of the world to
create a market. The packers were wil
ling to comply with any new require
ments, but they were now losing money
on their English market, but were
carrying it to develop trade.
"But we feel this to be an unjust
burden and one we ought not to be
called on to bear," he added.
Chairman Wadsworth asked if any
complaint had ever been made as to
the quality of the goods shipped
abroad.
"Well," replied Mr. Wilson, I
could not say 'no' to that question.
Occasionally we have a case of goods
sent back to us, but we always try to
get hold of the goods that are the sub
ject of complaint
Wlio {a *t\a i
Wha is the result on your foreign
markets of the present agitation?"
asked Mr. Wadsworth.
"The result is very disastrous," re
plied the witness.
BABTZEN FOTJUD FILTH
Chicago. Building Inspector Criticizes
Packihgtown Plants.
Chicago, June 7.Building Commis
sioner Bartzeh personally went to the
hog-killing department of one of the
large packing houses today and de
scribed the conditions he found there
as "filthy and dirty." He character
ized the room as a "dirty hole unfit for
the use to which it is put."
The portion of the plant where cattle
are killed, the walls were covered with
calcimine scarcely dry. He said there
is not a modem building in the entire
district devoted to the packing indus
try. The majority of them, he de
fit for such use as iB made of them.
He directed that the*inspection which'
began today should be of the most thoro
character, and the work will not be
completed inside of four or five days.

ache, rheumatism, will find relief by

WILL SHOW MINIATURES
Minneapolis Artist Arranges for Ex
Mbit Tomorrow at Plaza,
Miss Henrietta Punne, formerly a
Minneapolis girl and well known as the
Creator of" the Frivolous Girls,'' is
again, in Minneapolis for a few days,
and all day -JPriday and during the
evening she will hold an exhibition of
her work at the Plaza. Miss Dunne has
lately branched into miniature" work
and she expects to make that her spe
cialty eventually. After leaving Min
neapolis Miss Dunne will stop in Bos
ton a iew weeks and then make her
way to New York, where she will study
with. Miss Theodore Thayer, at the Art
league, who is famed for her success in
miniature work. There area number of
charming miniatures in her collection.
Miss i)unne 's friends will be sur
prised to find many California studies,
as well as a number of frivolous girls
in the exhibition. I the two winters
which she spent in California Miss
Dunne became enamoured of the old
missions and adobe huts, as well as the
beautiful pepper trees. Among the
mission pictures are included studies
of San Gabriel, which all Los Angeles
visitors view, the old Los Angeles
church, Capistrano, between San Diego
and Los Angeles, as well as many oth
ers thru the state.
Then she has caught the most beauti
ful season' of California, snatched the
beautiful gold from her fields of pop
pies and put, it in permanent form.
The roses, too, which embower the state
in the early springtime, have attracted
Miss Dunne's interest and claimed the
labor of her brush.
Tho Miss Dunne has spent most of
her time in the east since she left Min
neapolis six years ago, she has not lost
interest in the.old home, and she says
she still loves Minneapolis better than
the eastern cities, where her work
draws her.
Among those who will assist Miss
Dunne Friday are: Miss Thomas, Miss
Alice Thomas, Miss Annabelle White,
Mrs. F. B. Stoner and Mrs. F. B. Fertig.
