Provisions Of Meat Inspection
Amendment and Bill Passed
Saturday at Variance.

special to the Record-Herald says: s,-s
Probably no member of the house of
food bill Saturday realized that. many
OF its provisions were in direct conflict
with the meat inspection bill now in
conference between the senate and
house, and that some of the chief ad-
illustrative features of one cor the
other must fall. Such is the fact. !.
The meat inspection bill provides for
inspection under the authority Of the
secretary of agriculture, Eat his dis
erection, of livestock to be killed, Of the
carcasses after they are killed, and Of
all meat food products prepared for
Interstate or foreign commerce in
slaughterlng,- meat canning, sailing,
packing, rendering or similar esta blish-
ments, and for the purpose of any ex-
animation and inspection said inspec-
tors shall have access at all times, by
day or night, whether the establish
ment be operated or not, to every part
of said establishment, and said inspec-
tors shall mark, stamp or. label as in
spected and passed all such products
found to be sound, healthful and whole
some and which contain no DIVES. chem
icals, preservatives or ingredients which
render such meat or meat food products
unsound, unhealthful, unwholesome or
unit for human food,' etc. = -.
Meaning Of Provision. -.
This means that the veterinarians,
microscopists, chemists, Psychologists and
other inspectors of the bureau of ami

and potted meats the cured meats, the
sausages, the lard and all the other
by-products of the packing houses that
are used for human food, If it is to
enter into interstate or foreign com

It was the intention of the house
that this inspection should be final and
80 complete that the affxinq of the
stamp inspected and passed. would
be the guarantee of the United States
government that food was good

The pure-food bill passed by the
house Saturday by vote of 242 to l.

all meat products of the packing houses

examination showed that the long roy

Mr.. Lydiard was at once summoned.
When he and Stapleton went down

they found the empty cashboX and a

large iron doors barring the windows

Everything was then in confusion.
Police Superintendent Doyle was imme-
