WITO
By Associated Press.
PITTSBURGH July 27.— Susie Wag
ner, formerly a maid in the . Hartje
household, was a witness for Mr.
Hartja today In his suit for divorce,
but by her testimony made an impor
tant point for Mrs. Hartje.
That Susie Wagner received three
letters from Mrs. Mary Scott Hartje
while Susie -was In Germany wns
brought out. Hitherto only two letters
had been mentioned, one of them being
the disputed letter known as Exhibit
No. 6. Miss "Wagner said she gave the
second letter to "Ed' 'Hartje in New
York. Mrs. Hartje's attorneys have
contended all along that Exhibit No.
6 was a forged reproduction of an
other letter. The admission that the
second letter reached the Hartje side
two months before No. 6 Is regarded
as Important.
Susie Wagner, on cross-examination,
admitted that she had received a letter
from Mrs. Hartje which contained sub
stantially the same things as are found
In Exhibit No. 6, and which she says
she gave to Attorney E. G. Hartje In
New York.
j Although the new letter has been
traced to the hands of Mr. Hartje's
counsel by their own witness it was
not offered as a "standard."
In order that she should not be fur
ther subjected to annoyance at the
hands of rowdies, three detectives
guarded Mrs. Hartje while on the
street today. The hearing was ad
journed today until next week, when
in two or three days It Is expected the
taking of evidence will be corfn>leted.

PACKING HOUSES
MUST BE STRICT
REGULATIONS OF NEW LAW
MADE PUBLIC •■;:'.;
Inspection and Reinipectlon of All
Oaroaatet to Be Made When.
ever It la Thought
Necessary
By Associated Press.
WASHINOTON, July 27.— Secretary
Wilson today made public the regula
tions under the new law governing the
inspection of meat products for inter
state and foreign trade. They do not,
however, cover the subject of inter
state transportation of meat or the mi
croscopic inspection of pork for ex
port.
The regulations 'on this subject, It is
stated, will bo Issued later. The regu
lations . Issued today are stringent
throughout and are In line with the
best authorities on the subjects of san
itation, preservation, dyes, chetnlcala
and condemnation of diseased car
casses. ' ■ .' , '-
The general regulations provide that,
the scope of the inspection shall cover
all slaughtering, packing, moat can
ning, salting, rendering or similar es
tablishments whose meats or meat
food products, In whole or in part, en
ter Into interstate or foreign com
merce, unless exempted from Inspec
tion by the secretary of agriculture.
Under the law ithe only establish
ments which may be exempted by the
secretary are retail butchers and re
tall dealers supplying their customers
in Interstate or foreign trade, but
even these exempted classes are re
quired to submit to the secretary an
application for exemption.
All animals, carcasses and meat food
products will be subjected to a rigid
inspection, ttelnspection will be had
wherever necessary.
Regulations Required
The sanitation regulations require
the establishments in which animals
are slaughtered or meats and meat
food products are prepared, cured,
packed, stored or handled to be suit
ably lighted and Ventilated and to be
maintained in a sanitary condition. '
All work In such establishments
must be performed In a cleanly and
sanitary manner. All portions of the
buildings must bo whitewashed or
painted, or where It is impracticable
they must be washed, scraped or oth
erwise rendered sanitary.
Old floors and old equipment which
cannot be made sanitary must be re
moved and replaced by suitable ma
terials. All trucks, trays, chutes,
platforms, racks, tables, knives, saws,
cleavers and all utensils and machin
ery used in handling meats must be
thoroughly cleansed daily.
Employes of the establishments must
wear outer clothing of a material that
is easily cleaned and made sanitary,
and all toilet rooms, urinals and dress
ing rooms are required to be entirely
separate from apartments In which the
carcasses are dressed ur meats and
meat food products are prepared. ■
Managers of establishments will not
be permitted to employ any. person af
fected with tuberculosis In any, of the
departments.
Employes must disinfect their hands
and implements before- touching
healthy carcasses. Employes who are
unclean and careless of person will
not be allowed to handle meats. .
Must Make Weekly Reports
Weekly reports on sanitation are to
be made.
The provision relating to dyes, chem
icals and preservatives Is stringent.
Meats and food products for export
may contain preservatives In propor
tion which do not conflict with the laws
of the foreign country to which they
are exported, but all meats or meat food
products bo prepared for export must
be treated, and kept In compartments
of the establishment separate and
apart from those In which meats and
meat food products are prepared for liv
terstate commerce, specially labeled
and certified and stamped with the
word-«'special."
Such meats may not enter domestic
trade under any circumstances. The
Inspection of animals before slaughter,
designated In the regulations as the
ante-mortem Inspection, is changed to
conform to the new law, and to give
the secretary of agriculture authority
to require that all animals suspected of
disease on this ante-mortem inspection
shall be slaughtered separately and
apart from all other animals under the
careful supervision of federal Inspec
tors. l
Inspection Rules Changed
Heretofore the ante-mortem Inspec
tion has been made In the stock yards
at the time the animals arrived and has
covered animals which were to be
slaughtered at establishments where
inspection was maintained and those
which were slaughtered for local trade.
The new law does npt authorize Inspec
tion of animals for local trade.
It came to the attention of the de
partment that speculators were taking
advantage of this form of inspection
and the farmers who shipped the ani
mals to market were thereby losing
several hundred thousand dollars a
year. Under the new form of Inspec
tion, the shipper will be absolutely pro
tected and will receive full price for all
animals which pass the inspection.
Bpecial provision Is made for the de
struction for food purposes of all car
casses and parts f>( carcasses and meat
food products which upon Inspection or
reinspeetion prove to be unclean, un
sound or unhealthful, unwholesome or
otherwise unfit for human food. '
If any establishment refuses to follow
the regulations, inspection will be with,
drawn and tha product of that estab
lishment will not be allowed In inter
state or foreign trade.
Prison Awaits bribers
The regulation of the meat inspec
tion law provides that trnde labels
which are false or deceptive In any par
ticular shall not be permitted.
Attention is directed to the fact that
It Is a penally punishable by fine or
Imprisonment to attempt to bribe an
inspector. x
, The i provisions In regard to the label-
Ing of carcasses which are found to be
diseased and which have been con
demned are very complete. The in
spector and other government employes
must have accesß to the establishment*
at nil times, by day or night.
The proprietor of any establishment
may take an appeal from the decision
of an inspector to the Inspector in
charge and from him to the chief of the
bureau of animal Industry or to the sec
retary of agriculture where the decision
is final bo far as the department is con<

WOMAN 'SASSES' :
JUDGE W-ILBUB
HIB HONOR PROMPTLY RESENTS
THE INSULT
He Sentences His Fair Asealler to
i
." Day's Imprisonment In County -
Jail, but Later Evidently
. For "sasslng" Judge Wilbur of the
Juvenile court Miss Mary yaughn yes
terday wag held in contempt of coiiFf
and sentenced! to serve one day's Im
prisonment in the •county Jull.
All afternoon (he woman was com
pelled to sit in one corner, of the court
room, while a deputy sheriff sat near
by to see that she did not; leave, but
as the shades of night drew' on and
court adjourned it Is understood the
judge relented, for the Jail authorities
failed to receive Miss Vaughn, at the
county bastlle last night. >
In the course of his duties time and
time again Judge Wilbur, has met with
fetern resistance at the hands of womeri
whose children he has been examining.
In the natural duties of th* court, each
fractious boy Is marched before . him
and the lad Is ordered to tell what he
did that was wrong and all about It. -
.Then the parents are called In and
I fS ; , „ • ,V_. ... „ '
thoroughly examined as to i the boy's
habits, and -many of them during the,
examination admit j their unfl mass to
care for children. • ;,. • . *
As a result, when Judge Wilbur be
gins to Inquire about the children there
Is generally either stubborn silence on
the part of the mothers or a decided
tone of Indignation in their voices.
In addition, the mothers as a rule re
sent the presence of the members of
the juvenile board and trouble results."
Spectators Are Surprised
Yesterday the long line < of children '
were paraded before Judge Wilbur and <
examined. Finally a lad named Charles'
Macklln was called up and the name
sake of Hli'hn r<l Harding Davis' valiant
captain admitted a wandering disposi
tion and did not deny that he had ia"
strange habit of stealing rides lon
freight 'trains. ' * , • . ■■■ ■ <•
t The youth was a nice looking lad,?'
and Judgo Wilbur called Miss Vaughn, I
the boy's aunt, and began to question
her,, . bSrvUi J * ■'• - : .
The conversation was earrled on In a>,
low tone of voice, and suddenly the
spectators In the court room , wore
shocked to hear the woman announce*
in a loud tone of voice:
"Well, you nejxln't get ' so funny '
about it!" ' ■
"You ■ are in contempt of court and
will spend one day In jail for that're
mark," said Judge Wilbur, and re
sumed the proceedings, .<■■■■
Then while the woman sat moodily In
the corner of ' the court room watched
by an officer . Judge Wilbur dismissed
the Juveniles and heard another* case. ■
-\ At . ihe i' officers . of the ■ county £ Jail .
failed' to receive commitment papers in .
the - case, a settlement probably was .
made In court.' •'■ ,
