UNITED STATES
LEADS THE WORLD
Great Advantages Expected to
Result From Meat In
SpeCtiOn Law.

Washington. July Is Secretary Wilson
today declared that as result of the new
meat inspection law, and the rules pro-
mulgated by him yesterday, a radical
change for the better would occur.
within very short space of time" he
said "the meat products of the United
States will be purer and more wholesome
than any similar products of the world
The conditions existing in some of the
Strengthening and packing houses abroad
are about as bad as can be ina gined and
the American people henceforth will en-
joy distinct advantage over the foreign
consumers.
Weekly Reports.
"Of particular Importance is the rule
providing for weekly inspection reports
to be supplied the bureau of animal in
dustTy. Without such reports, it would
be difficult to cope with the situation
AS general proposition, however, the
law will be complied with in every detail
but | shall take nothing for granted and
viii make the inspections in every estab-
lishment that the law reaches rigid and
complete"
1t has not been determined when the
rules governing the interstate transporta-
ton phase Of the question will be issued.
Daily Conferences.
The secretary is in almost daily confer
ence with railroad men, particular from
the west, and from these he has already
gathered a considerable amount of data
on the subject. 1t is the belief at the de-
partment that the railroads will not be
less sincere in complying with the law
than the packers. In fact, il was stated
today that they have evinced a determina-
ton to cooperate with the department in
every way in order that those meat prod
ucts which bear the government label
shall find their way into other than the
states from which they were shipped.

YOUNG STUDENT
SENT BACK HOME
Case of Deportation Which
May Intensity the Existing
Feeling in China.

Washington, July 2S-Through the en-
forcement of the immigration laws of the
United States against Chinese student
who was one of a party which arrived in
Seattle short time ago. a young China
man of great promise was forced to re-
turn to his native country and the case
may result in intensifying the criticism
CHINA offers against the immigration re
strlctlons this country imposes on Chinese
or the favored classes
The student deported was a member of
a party of thirty-eight young Cinnamon
whom Charles ID. Teney, Harvard man
and member of the faculty of the I'M
perlal Chinese university, brought to TINS
country. 1t was said by health Officers
that the young student, who was one Of
the brightest members of the party was
suffering with trachoma a disease of the
eyes, and after board had passed on his
case the young man was ordered back to
China.
Others Taken to Cambridge.
DR.. Teney took the other students to
Cambridge, Mass, where they are now
attending the Harvard summer school
Half of the young Chinese will be sent
to schools in Great Britain and the others
will be placed in engineering schools in
this country Thirty-fOur of the Young
Chinese are being educated by the CHI
nese government and the other members
OF the party are paying their own eX-
penSeS.
These students are said to be the fore
runners of a large delegation to be sent
within few years to this country in
case the United States modifies its re-
strictions upon Chinese of the educated
classes and makes conditions here at
tractive to the young students. Fear is
expressed here, however, that the deporta-
ton of the young student with eye trou-
bic will not be understood in China and
may have some effect on the coming of
large numbers of students to American
universities.

No Warrant Served.
No attempts were made to serve any
legal papers on Mr. Rockefeller in con
nection with the legal proceedings against
him at Findlay. o., when he left The
Amerika at Hoboken. Mr.. Rockefeller
greeted a group of newspaper men with
smile, but IN reply to questions said he
had nothing to say about the warrant
which was issued at Findlay for his ar
rest on charge of violating the Valen-
tine antitrust law.
II cannot talk about that now" he
said.
Mr.. Rockefeller made the same reply
to question whether there is any truth
in a report that he has taken no active
part in the affairs of the Standard Oil
company for twelve years When asked
how he liked France he said he WOULD
not compare 1t TO America at ALL
John D. in Good Health.
Mr.. Rockefeller appeared to be in ex
cellent health and spirits. He said he
had enjoyed his stay in France to the
fullest extent, but that he was very glad
to get back home again. Despite a rapid
fire of questions directed at him bv a
score or more of newspaper men, Nc
Rockefeller eyaded all replies to questions
put to him relating to the Standard Oil
company and the warrant which had been
issued for his apprehension. Mr.. Rookie
Teller and his party were the last pas
sengers to land from the steamer. AS ne
was leaving his staterOom, Mr.. Rookie
Teller was met by reporters After a rev
minutes talk with his son, John D.. ir.
on one side and DR.. Biggar, on the other
the Standard Oil magnate proceeded down
the gangplank and off the pier, followed
by a crowd of several persons who were
awaiting to get d glimpse of him. On the
way out Mr.. Rockefeller met several men
and women he knew and stopped, shook
hands and exchanged word or two.
When he reached the end of the wharf
at the earnest opportunities of a young
man with camera, Mr.. Rockefeller barred
his head to the hot sunshine and posed for
a photograph, smiling good-naturedly ali
the while.
