MEMBERS CALL FOR
BEEF TRUST REPORT
that the packers will be allowed to hav'
hearing before the committee. If,
PAYMENT of Inspectors.
Continued from First Pag

h leuTlllb DeluIc INC commit tee
Payment of Inspectors.
Several representatives OF the meat
packers are said to be In the city for
the purpose Of urging a hearing for them
selves. 1t is understood that they will
rot attempt to defeat tho Beveridge
amendment, but that they will attempt
to have the proposed legislation so
changed us to require the government to
pay for the inspectlon. Thc amendment
added In the Senate provides that the
packers pay the inspectors, who are to
be appointed by the government.
1t is certain that an effort Will be made
by one or more members of the commits
tee to require that the government bear
the expense Of inspection. 1t Is argued
that II the inspectors be made the em-
ployes Of the packing companies, even
though they be appointed by the Pres
ident, they will not discharge their duties
with that strict impartiaity demanded OF
a public servant. 1t is further pointed
out that the cost of inspection will only
be added to the cost of meat to the pub
lie and that tho consumer Will pay It
in the end hi i.sg
Pressure is being brought on Western
senators and representatives to secure
some modification Of the amendment in
the interest OF stock rnisers So far us
can DC uSCcTtQlIleQ, UOtulnR definite IN
the way OF change In the amendment is
proposed, beyond that referring to the
pay Ut inspectors, but 1t Il urged gen
orally that 1t be made to safeguard the
interest OF the stockmen and prevent
them from annoyances and loss OF bus
mess.
Presidents Reasons.
The reasons for withholding tho report
assigned for the President, If not by him
are that to publish It would cause q
revolution in the packing business, and
such revulsion of feeling against canned
meats that the packing business would
be ruined.
AS n matter OF fact tho contents OF
the report are not secret any longer The
details OF the methods In use In the
packing establishments are beng printed
everywhere. II is not conceivable thai
worse stories, told in anldavi,s can be
told OF the use OF putrcfied meats, 81
animals which died OF disease. OF the ,ist
J of chemicals and dyes to deodorzc anc
disguise rottcnness, than are contained
I'M these publications.
There are some other reasons which
are causing the President TO withhold al

 ACCUMULATING FACTS - Yes terday D. $. Lewis. who brought to the city the second installment of bones belonging to the remains of the man found east of Mesa City near the railroad, came in again with another exhibit that may aid in throwing light on the identity of the dead man and the manntr of his death. This latest contribution is a coat. in the pocket Of wnich was found a purse containing a dollar or so in small change and what appears to be a fragment of Russian passport. It is understood Coroner Burnett will forward the supposed passport to the Russian embassy in Washington in the hope that through means at it's disposal the identity of the dead man may be learned. There is a bullet hole in the front of the coat and another in the back, which leads to the conclusion that the man was murdered.
