BOSTON, Mass, July Misrepresentation
of the western packing houses here are up
against another bunch of trouble" as the
result of the state board Of health's crusade
against adulterated and bad canned meats.
Dealers and wholesalers t throughout the
state have been ordered to clear their
shelves of all condemned goods, and this
order covers all brands analysed by the
state chemists and found to be adulterated
or containing preservatives.
A list of these brands and their packers
has been published. so there will be no ex-
cuse for the dealers to plead ignorance
No wholesalers or packers will be al
lowed to sell any of these goods. The
dealers complained to the state board that
the packers refused to take back any con-
demned goods. and Secretary Harrington
instructed the dealers to bring In all EVIL
dence of such refusals, saying that he would
cause the arrest of every packer or packer q
agent who refused to take beck the con-
demned goods.
Some hint Of this situation reached the
agents, for they moderated their front to-
day toward the dealers Any dealer or
agent caught selling adulterated food here
will e prosecuted as far as the law allows
The western packers are hard hit by the
published exposure. as their most widely
advertised brands were published as con-
tanning scrap. refuse and cornmeal adult
terants.

HOPEFUL OF PEACE.
Cabrera May Abandon His Designs on
Salvador

The State Department has heard nothing
since Friday from Central America OF Mex
leo relative to the efforts being made to
or'ng about peace between Guatemala and
her neighbors. 1t Is believed however. that
IN conformity with the instructions of the
department Ambassador Thompson at the
Sity OF Mexico; Charge Brown, at Guate-
maia CITY, and Minister Merry. at San Sal
vador, are In direct communication with
one another. and will soon have something
70 report 1t is. of course, possible that
the turbulent state of Guatemala may make
teiesraphic communications slow and DIFF
ncuit II not altogether impossible With
the cooperation of Mexico now assured, II
Is hoped that President Cabrera of Guate-
inaia may be induced to abandon any re-
VengefuI designs he may cherish against
the little republic of Salvador The use of
force, or even the threat OF force for the
preservation of peace is not contemplated
SO Tar as can be gathered. but i, was
deemed advisable to have a United States
warship near the seat OF trouble to protect
American interests. which may become en-
dangered.
The statement in news dispatches that
war has been decreed in Guatemala is be-
lieved by the State Department officials to
be based upon the declaration of martial
law in that country, of which the depart
ment was advised Friday by Charge Brown.

KILLEEN ONLY BIDDER
FOR WORK ON TIE PROPOSED
MARYLAND HIGHWAY.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE, Md. July 14.-Mr. John
F. Killeen of Washington was the only
bidder who responded to the call of Chief
Engineer VIM. N. Crosby Of the highways
commission for proposals for work on the
proposed highway between Baltimore and
Washington. Mr.. Killeen's bid was opened
this afternoon at the Office of the geological
survey, and complied in every way with
the requirements of the commission. The
work to be done includes the grading and
macadamizing, and the bid made Is not
for the CONSTRUCTION of the roadway in its
entirety, but for sections. the specifications
requiring that the proposal must be for
units
Computed by the engineer. the bid OF Mr..
Killeen would entail upon the state an ex-
penditure of somewhere between $4,000
and s40.00o for every four and a half miles
of highway-a little more than was expect
ed but still not an excessive demand. The
commission will consider the bid. and if
Mr.. Kileen Is awarded the contract he
may begin work prior to August l.
Twenty Eight Miles for Construction.
AS there are about twenty eight miles Of
road to be constructed. the $4,000 .appro-
prated by the legislature would not be suf-
hcient to complete the work. About one
and half miles are already in condition. or
use which will leave twentysix and one
half miles to be put In shape. II four and
one-uuarter miles cost $4,000. which is the
minimum under the bid of Mr.. Kilieen, 1t
will require something over 100000 to
build the road
The act making the appropriation pro-
vided that $4,000 shall be available at once,
a second $50 900 on October l and the bal
ance when this is used up. Should the
work. as now seems likely. be unfinished
when the entire amount is expended the
next legislature will have to appropriate
the additional amount required for its COM
plptiOn.
