The annual Council of the Episcopal
church of.the Diocese Of West Virgin
ia, met in Charles Town last week
commencing Wednesday, and had a
very pleasant and interesting session.
There was full representation of the
clergy, and fairly good attendance
of lay delegates. The reports from
the various parishes, aud the state of
the church in the Diocese were very
encouraging, showing a very crafty
ing growth of the church in this state.
Bishop Peterkln and his coarjutor,
Bishop Gravott, both submitted their
reports, which indicated great deal of
activity and effective work. A recep-
ton and collation. was rendered the
council on Wednesday afternoon, by
Gen'l Craighill, at his home, which
was greatly enjoyed. The ladies of the
church served substantial lunch
each day in Washington hall, and the
citizens of the town wed with each
other in their hospitality, 1t was pro-
nounced one of the most agree
able gatherings of the kind, ever held h,
the Diocese.

The Packing House Investigation.

The report on the Chicago Packing

Gently submitted to Congress. disclosed
condition of filthiness, aud disregard
OF sanitation that is almost incredible.
The prevailing idea is to get all the
profit possible, out of the business,
without regard to health, cleanliness,
or common deceney.
The story of pollution in the report
is revolving and disgusting, in theex-
treme. 1t is the duty of government
TO protect the people from the effects
Of the methods that are said to exist
In these packing establishments, the
products of which are sent to every
nook and corner. not only of this coun-
try, but of almost the known world.
A bill has been introduced in congress
with view Of establishing an effective
system af governmental inspection,
which aroused such storm of pro-
test on the part of the packers, that 1t
was feared that theses powerful COM
binations would be able TO defeat its
possage, therefore Nr. Roosevelt was
moved to make public the said report
with all Its horrors, in order to arouse
public indignation, and COMPEL
congress to afford the needful pre-
lection to the consumers of the
products of these establishments.
This question is of vital importance
to every man, women and child in this
broad land, and the correction of the
OWLS disclosed, does not admit Of par
tisan considerations.
On the other hand the packers, as it
Is natural they should do, have issued
manifesto denying, absolutely, the
statement set forth in the Neill-Rey-
nolds report, and sdeclaring that their
slaughter houses are immaculate,
and no diseased meat has place there
in. If such is the case we should think
they would count, instead Of trying to
avoid thorough inspection by the
government.

Hot Court Week In Moscow.

There are more than two dozen Sc
cret service men in Moscow this eve
ming. Their presence is due to the
convening of the federal court this
morning. During the session of court
the timber fraud cases which occupied
much of the attention of the court a
year ago will be tried. They will be
called next Monday morning. At the
same hour the federal grand jury will
convene. The province of the grand
Jury at this time Is not clear, to many,
but It Is supposed that body will take
care of witnesses in the land fraud
cases who are disinclined to tell all
they know. II Is also intimated that
the grand jury will took into addi-
tional land cases which have come up
during the year.
Aside from the secret service men
in Moscow tonight there are almost
100 trial witnesses, besides private
detectives for the men accused of tim
Der frauds and private individuals who
are working either for the government
or under arrest i'm connection with the
land frauds. 1t is expected that this
session of the federal court will last
more than six weeks.
II came to light late tonight in GER
tain circles that men friendly to the
defendants in the timber frauds had
made threats against certain federal
officials. The secret service men
think enough of the threats made in
bar rooms against certain government
prosecuting officials to guard every
step of the latter. prepared to shoot tc
kill upon the slightest provocation
The government officials are prepared
to prosecute the land fraud cases to
the bitter end and are ready to meet
force or legal opposition on the part
of the defense with similar methods
