REPORT OF INSPECTORS.
Information Supplied to Congress Re-
garding Food Supplies.

In response to a resolution passed by the
Senate March 8. the Commissioners today
forwarded to Congress report from the
District food inspectors relative to the in
spection Of meat, poultry, game, fish and
oysters imported into the District In cold
storage or refrigerato tor cars.
The report contains the following infor-
nation:
Meats shipped to this city in refrigerator
or cold storage cars are unloaded at very
early hour in the morning. and are taken
directly to the wholesale houses to which
they are consigned. At an early hour in
the morning we visit these establishments
and inspect by smelling and handling each
and every carcass, the meat just arrived,
and oftentimes while it is being unloaded
from the wagons, in order that it may be
thoroughly examined before it is distributed
to the retail dealers. 1t is deemed more
practicable to inspect the meats in the
manner stated above, in view of the way in
which the meats are packed in the cars,
and also In view of the fact that no meats
are sold until they have been received and
recorded at the wholesale houses.
with reference to the inspection of
poultry, game, fish and oysters, we would
state that such articles are brought to this
city In refrigerator cars packed in boxes or
barrels. rendering it quite impracticable to
give tnem thorough inspection In the
cars. These goods are consigned to whole
sale and commission houses where they
are unpacked and placed in their cold stor-
age rooms. We visit these wholesale and
commission houses early every day and ex-
anime these goods, by handling and closely
scrut1nizing the same, before they are Of
fered for sale. No inspections are made
in the cars themselves.
Besides the above we might add that we
visit all the cold storage and refrigerator
rooms of the Center Market every dav In
order to keep in touch with any of the
above mentioned goods that may have been
stored there The articles of food men
toned, together with all other articles of
food, are daily examined in the various
markets and market stores of the city,
