The Presidents Letter.
Secretary Loeb has given out a
summary Of the presidents letter. in
which the secretary says:
In the letter to Mr. wadsworth the
president stated that almost every
change in the proposed house amend
ment was for the worse that the pres
dent felt il would doubtless suit those
packers who objected 10 a thorough
going inspection. but that he also felt
II would. in the long run. be a heavy
blow to the honest stock raiser ana
the honest packer: that the proposed
amendment would gravely hamper the
secretary OF agriculture in doing the
work he is appointed to do. aud
would simply defer the dsy when xe
could restore the foreign and inter
state trade on the meat to a satisfac-
tory position.
The president has explained YER
baliy that he Is far less concerned
with the question as 20 whether the
packers or the government should paw
for the inspection than with certain
other features OF the bill 90
