Scott in Chicago to a Terms
with His Striking Miners.

I'LL hid StIlHiuS AlueTSs
CHICAGO, Aug. 16.-Mr. w. l.. Scott, of
Pennsylvania, and other owners of coal
mines in northern Illinois. are in the city
to-day for the purpose OF comforting with
representatives OF the labOrers at the va
rious mines on the subject of wages. Each
body held a conference with closed doors,
this morning, and they will hold a joint
meeting, and discuss the situation this aft
ernOOn. The miners want the price of
mining restored to the scale of last year, in
which there has been a reduction of 10 per
cent. The mine operators say they cannot
do this without losing money.
When the mine-owners and the repre-
other. Mr.. Scott's superintendent an
nounced that the full reduction would be
insisted upon. The uncompromising ulti-
matum was met by the miners with an in
slant motion to adjourn the conference
sine die. Operator L. l.. MOuser interposed
with the information that the announce
ment by Mr.. ScOtts superintendent was
not altogether satisfactory to other mine
owners. Three hours hot debate ensued,
and when a recess was finally taken there
seemed little prospect of q compromise.
Tonight the wrangling continued. The
mine owners finally offered to make the re-
ductiOn 7l2 cents. instead of 10. Congress
man Lawler and other nOn-delegates were
made TO retire from the wage-wOrkers' con-
ference, on the ground of being agitatOrs,
who were preventing a settlement. After
midnight, the miners committee agreed to
the figures proposed, conditioned on an
advance of gig cents Oct. 1.

If You Arc Not Careful You May Poison
Fresh Meat without Knowing II.

III You ARC MOI SnreIui Ou NIay IOhSOu
Fresh Meat without Knowing II.
From the New Orleans Daily States.
Experiments have been made recently
by NJ. Bourrier, Inspector Of meat for the
city OF Paris, as to the effects of tobacco
smoke on meat about toJbe eaten, and he
has given the startling results he has OBJ
tanned In the Revue T Hygiene.
whereas up to late date nobody has ever
had any idea that there might DO anything
deletcrious or even injurious In meat i'm
pregnated with the fumes OF the weed, NJ.
Bourrier has established the fact that In
that condition Il IL always actively, ami
often virulently, poisonous
For example, he cut some beef into thin
slices and exposed II for an hour or two to
tobacco smoke and then offered 1t to dog
which had been kept fasting for twelve
hours. The hungry quadruped nosed It
and left il severelyaloue. M. Bourrior then
cut some OF tho same meat into small
pieces and concealed IL between slices OF
bread. The deluded dog ate this with
avidity in twenty minutes he commenced
to display distressing symptoms OF poison
ing, and, in little while longer, he died In
great agony. Similar experiments were
performed on many other dogs, and on
rabbits and guinea pi ~, and recourse was
had to injecting the juice Of the meat where
carnivorous pr0pensities were wanting.
The result of the ex perimentation in every
case without exception was the same, the
toxic effect being only moro or less pro-
nounced.
And the feature of NJ. Bourrier's dis
coveries that should be of special interest
to the large class of human carnivOra is
that tho poison in tobacco smoked meat Is
not got rid of by culinary processes. For
he tried 1t not only raw, but roasted,
grilled and boiled, and in most cases he
found that the nicotine bacillus or poison
germ was q, lively after s1hject.ol to the
fire as II was before. Herein Is the con-
sideration that should give meat eating
mortals pause. For had tobacco smoked
meat been fraught with death in its un-
cooked condition alone only the infinitesi-
NAL number who like theirs absolutely" "un-
touched of fire" could have been affected.
But tho experiments of NJ. Bourrier prove
concusively that cooking does not remove
the toxic effects in meat tainted with nico-
tine, and the discovery in consequence as
sumes universal interest.
Care obviously, therefore, should be
taken to prohibit smoking in places where
foods, especially moist foods, fats and cer-
tain fruits, are exposed. There is a very
common practice in residences, where tho
lady is particular not to have her hangings
and carpets redolent of the odor Ofthe stale
tobacco, to make smokers retire to the
kitchen at late hours with their pipes aud
other parapheralia of pleasures. In the
kitchen the while il often hung up meat
for the morrow's dinner. Meat so exposed
Is not safely used as food.
