The shipment OF big jaw or csncerous
steers to the National Stock Yards in
East S.. Louis last week was very large.
Inspector John Finn reported that
twenty-three cancerous steers arrived at
the National Stock Yards, seven OF which
were shipped to Cleveland. Mr.. Finn has
watched the balance very close, but Sc
the inspectors have no power to condemn
anything on the other side Of the river,
the chances are that they were killed by
unprinclpled parties and the meat shipped
to st. Louis by the quarters and the
poisoned meat sold to the citizsns for
good healthy meat. The inspectors claim
to know and are sItiffsd that there are
80 cslled butchers who will buy these
diseased cattle, sheep and hogs in East
st. Louis and VIII doctor the meat up
and then bring the same to St. Louis and
sell 1t for good meat, but are powerless
to do anything.
