LIVE. STOCK EXCHANGE.
Association Courts Investigation
by European Agents-ln Fa-
vor of Reciprocity.

Fost Worth, Tex, Oct 13.-At the
morning session of the National Live
Stock Exchange today President Thomp-
son delivered his annual address.
Regarding the laws which some Eu-
ropean countries have passed prohibiting
the importation of American meat, Pres
ident Thompson said: 1--WE know the
reason to be without foundation in fact
and would heartily welcome representa-
tiyes of any and all foreign countries to
our ranches, our feed lots, our stock
yards and our abattoirs, where our meat
food products are prepared for consump-
ton, and after being prepared ara crltl-
cally inspected, examined and FOUND
healthy, to be sealed and so certified by
such representatives. We court the most
careful scrutiny and critical scientific ex-
animation of the health Of our livestock
and meat food products. Can we do
more in this line? This is a questions
that merits your serious consideration.
These measures, together with much
needed legislation by our Congress look
ing to a reciprocal exchange OF our COM
modities, should be one of the great
aims Of this convention. Reciprocity
would open for our surplus the gates to
commerce that are now closed to us,
and the resultant, beneficial effect would
soon be felt in every channel of COM
merce throughout the length and breadth
of this great land"
The executive committee, which met
last night, presented a lengthy report
today dealing. as President Thompson's
address did, largely with the question IN
relation to foreign governments dlscrlmI-
mating against the American livestock
product and the expectation of Canadian
cattle through the United States ports.
Quarantine lines as construed by Sec
rotary Morton were also discussed and
as result stringent appeal to Congress
