ALLEGED DISEASED MEAT.
Britain May Investigate Chicago
Methods of Packing.


LONDON, March THE president of the
Board of Agriculture in the House of Com
mons to-day was asked by Mr.. Jefreys,
member for North Hampshire, whether his
attention had been drawn to a statement
in the Times concerning the preparation
and packing of meat at Chicago. said to be
diseased, and intended for expectation to
England, and whether he had reason to be-
lieve that though a bullock at Chicago
could be condemned as diseased and unfit
for food, yet its tongue was preserved and
exported, while its fat was made into oleo-
margarine; and whether it was fact that
in many instances diseased meat which had
been condemned had nevertheless been
taken out of the condemned tanks after
the inspector had left, and then preserved
and exported to England Finally, Mr..
Jeffreys asked if the government would en-
deavor to prevent such meat being shipped
as food to England.
After listening to the questions of Mr..
Jeffreys, Herbert Gardner, president of the
Board of Agriculture, said he had received
the statements referred to, and proposed to
make the necessary inquiries through the
Foreign Office. He would also bring to the
notice of the sanitary authorities here any
information which reached him in respect
to the existence of danger to the health Of
the public arising from imported food.

Although Colorado is developing an
enormous OUTPUT of sil.er, Afr. Jetfery
does not waver in his devotion to bimet-
allism. The editor OF the Engineering
and Mining Journal says that the gold
output of the Transvaal was less than
was anticipated Cs4o, ,346.OCoJ. and that
it will be much larger the current year.
The output Of gold last year was little
over nine million OF ounces, and of silver
about eighteen and a half times more.
The decrease in the value of the silver
product was s2s. s.s12,os but that direct
loss is very small as compared with the
direct loss to the whole country from

Jeffery. the United States gets off very

Views Of a Railway Magnatc.

One OF the best known and ablest rail
way men in this country, MIR. E. 7. JET
fiery, of Denver. formerly of Chicago, has
just returned from trip abroad. Mr..
Jeffery is a strong bimetallist himself and
thinks binactallism is bound to come, but
he does not think the present Conserva-
tive victory in England will bring it.
While it will help matters little, it is
very far from bimetallic victory. The
question did not enter into the campaign
in general way. Mr.. Baltour is favor
able to it and there may be little aid
and comfort afforded to it. but England
is far from ripe for any radical depart
ure from the single gold standard OF 1916
According to Mr.. Jeffery the general
depression OF industry and trade is the
great leverage. The revival OF business
noticeable in some lines Of American in.
dustry and the general hopefulness OF
the country are not shared by England,
or for that matter. Europe. No doubt
the general depression had good deal
to do with the landslide in British poll
tics.
Mr.. Jeffery was struck by the contrast
between the prosperity of the United
States and the hard times of England.
The wealth OF that country is concen-
trated in the hands OF n few. The
whole world pays tribute to England.
