SPEAKS FOR
 THE PACKERS Thomas Wilson Before
 Committee. GENERAL DENIAL OF CHARGES Asks for Personal Investigation
 of the Slaughter Houses. Declares Any Practical Suggestions for the Betterment of Conditions VIII
 Be Gladly welcomed By the

Washington, June 6.-The House Committee on Agriculture today decid- ed to comply with the request of the Chicago packers to be heard on the Neill- Reynolds report regarding con ditions in the Chicago packing houses The request was made by Thomas Will son, manager of the Nelson Morris company, but In this instance author ized to speak for all the Chicago pack CTS.
 MT. Wilson made a general denial of the existence of conditions in the pack ing houses as set forth in the Neill- Reynolds report. He began by invit- ing the committee to come to Chicago and spend a week In personal inves- figation of conditions. Some of the suggestions made in the report. he said had already been complied with by the packers, such as additional sanitary facilities.
 As to the charge that canned meats were boiled in water to ''freshen them up" Mir. Wilson said there was abso- lutely nothing in this. Canned meat he said. was as good five years after It had been put up as 1t was five min utes afterwards. providing no air had got to 1t. If air had reached the meat it would be spoiled beyond being fresh ened, What the cans were put in hot water for was to soak of the old lapel which he said, was an Injury to the ap- pearance of the goods on sale.
 He denied absolutely that there were any diseased cattle or hogs outch- cred for food In every car load or cattle or hogs he said. some were ike ly to be dead and some diseased. The dead or diseased hogs and cattle were sent to the Standard Rendering Com pany. which was very different in- stItution from the Standard Slaughter ing Company, although the two were likely to be confused in the mind. The Rendering company turned the dead and diseased meS into grease which was a co-produet in the manufacture o soap.
 Preparing Canned Meats.
 MT. Wilson described In detail the operation of preparing canned meats ana when asked by Representative Scott of Kansas, a member of the committed ''how about the rope and other foreign matter found with tho scraps on the hoor?"
