WASHINGTON, Dec. 2l.-Secretary
Wilson states that discontinuance Of
the microscopic inspection Of meats
sent abroad would mean the entire sus-
pension of exports and lose us the $20,-
100000 worth of meats annually sold
to Germany. The lack of funds, he ex-
planned, was due to the increased work
of the past year and the two weeks
leave of absence granted each employee
of the bureau outside Of this city,
which necessitated the employment Of
additional men. Secretary Wilson said
he has asked congress to make part Of
the appropriation for the coming year
Immediately available and that he has
no doubt congress will grant this au-
thority, as it has done SO frequently In
previous years.

The incident caused much annoyance to
the government. especially as it is under
stood that an urgent whip was sent to Con-

anticipation OF the votes. Four Conserva-
tives voted agairst the government and
several Conservatives purposely abstained
from voting, there being considerable feel

last Liberal government the attorney gen.
eral and solicitor general were paid fixed
salaries, aggregating e19O00. Last year
these two officers together received $4,000
in salaries and fees.
