even If Il were Interstate commerce the
facts given constitute no violation OF Jaw.
Mr. Miller contended that there was no
interstate commerce involved. because the

was confined entirely to Chicago. The
shipment. he said. was no pant OF the pur-
chase or sale.

Miller said the demand for fresh meat I
was fairly uniform and. owing to the ne
cessity for maintaininE proper supply

DISCUSSES FOREST RESERVE.
Capt. Bullock Says Administration
Will Not Retard Mining.

Washington. Jan. 6-Capt. Seth Bull
iock. supervisor of the Black Hills forest
ieSeINe. discussed the question. will the
administration Of the Forest Reserve on
conservative Basis Retard Mining?"
,,Ia,.;n 20 arIiVs properly at solution of this
question. ne said. it would be necessary
firsI to examine to what extent the mine
Is dependent on the forest and in dis
cuSslng the matter he referred chiefly to
conditions existing in the Black Hills for
est reserve with which he is thoi oughly
familiar. He pointed out how in the sue
cesstuI prosecution of the work required
to make a mine productive and remuner-
ative to its owners the use of forest tim
Der Is an absolute necessity. Large sums
Of money have been expended in supply
ing the stamp mills Or reduction works
with water derived from mountain
streams. the continuous flow of which is
dependent on The preservation and MAIN
tenance Of the forest conditions at their
source.
Capt Bullock continued:
1t follows then that the forest an,!
stream are dependent each on the other
and successful mining upon both. The
dependency of the mine upon the forest
having heen established. the question
arises. what is the best plan for securing
permanent supply Of the necessary tim
ber: Ny reply is, Intelligent and practi-
cal forestry which can best be obtained
under forest reservation laws administer
ed with business-like methods
In conclusion he declared liberal treat
ment of the forests would. in his opinion.
not retard mining, but on the contrary
materially assist it.
