GRUNO EXPLAINS,
He Says That Mr.. kreig Was Not Re.
sponsible for U~nderweight Orders,

He Says That Mr.. Kreig Was Not Re
sponsible for Underweight Orders.
Charles II. Grund, one of the en-
ployes of Mr.. Kreig. the West Granite
street butcher, a yesterday in regard
to the charge that the shop had been
giving the Nagle sisters short weight:
IF there has been any short weight
given to the Nagle sisters at any time
ii is the fault of myself or other enl-
ployes. Mr.. Kreig could not have
known anything about il. 1 have deliv-
cred lots of meat there myself and they
never made any complaint to me about
the weight and 1 never heard of any of
them kicking about the weight. If the
weight was wrong, why did not they
send it back? l don't believe we made
any mistake at all, but any one is apt
TO make an error once in a while, and if
our weight was wrong at any time we
would very gladly rectify it. Mr.. Kreig
has been a long time in business here
and his reputation is too good to allow
anyone to him we would Intentionally
give short weight. Some people doa't
understand that when roasts are sent
out the meat is first weighed with
the bone in. Then the bone is cut out
and the roast sent to the customer. But
it is my custom always to give over,
rather than under. weight, so that the
customers may be well satisfied and that
is the way with all those in our shop"
