WILSON, CONTINUES REMARKS
House Committee Resumes Packing
house Hearing.

house Hearing.
Washington, June 8.--The house
committee on agriculture continued
its hearing on the Neill Reynolds meat
inspection report during the day.
Thomas E. Wilson, manager for Mel
son Morris & Co. and representing
the large Chicago packinghouses, con.
tinued his remarks on the Beveridge
amendment providing for meat In
spection.
Aside from the objections he had
previously pointed out Mr.. Wilson
said the only other serious objection
was the provision placing the cost of
inspection on the packers.
Representative Scott (Kan.) sug-
gested that 1t was generally under
stood the packers SO controlled the
meat market that they would be able
to recoup themselves for the cost OF
inspection.
I'VE could not" replied Mr.. Wilson.
"The large packers kill only SO per
cent OF the meat supply of the country
and do not control the market"
Representative Henry suggested
that the delinquencies OF the packers
had placed them In their present posi-
tion and inquired why should the
packers object to paying IL the gov.
ernment Is to pull you out of the
hole"
Mr.. Wilson objected to this view OF
the case. It was not the fault of the
packers. The packers had sent men
into every hamlet OF the world to Gre
ate market. The packers were will
Ing to comply with any new require
ments, but they were now losing
money on their English market but
were carrying 1t to develop trade. The
present agitation. he declared, was
disastrous to foreign trade.

SEEK RELICS OF IRELAND.
Deputation Coming to United States

London.-A deputation is going to
America to obtain objects of historical
interest for the International exhibi-

Thomas H. Teegan, principal of the
Central Training college, Dublin, has
sailed for New York, and Father Pat
rick Lally of Galway and Col McHack-
EFT Of Dublin will follow They will
visit all the larger cities to obtain rel
les in the possession of families of
Irish descent and objects associated
with the Napoleonic era held by Amer
leans
While the exhibition is being strong
ly supported opposition to it has been
aroused in some quarters. The Irish
nationalist are especially opposed to
it, John, E. Redmond, leader of the
Irish parliamentary party in the house
of commons, explaining that what Ire
land desired at present was a national
and not an international exhibition, as
the Irish industries are not sufficiently
developed to be placed beside the man
ufacture of cher countries.
Representations have been made to
the state department at Washington
not to support the exhibition by en-
couraging people to exhibit.

CATS ABLE TO STOP TRAINS
Engineers Say Eyes of Feline Family
Are Like Signal Lamps
at Night.

Brookfield, Mo-"Did you ever see
black cats eyes when they were in
the line of an electric light?" asked
Ben Woodlief, travelling engineer for
the Missouri division of the Burling-
ton road. IF one, steps on the rail-
road track ahead of the engine and
looks up the engineer sees two vivid
lights ahead of him as large and
clearly defined as any signal service
lights ON the road. Sometimes they
are red, but most generally green or
white. In the night time, of course
the engineer can't see the, cat, and
all he can do is to run in obedience
to the cat-eye signals If they are
white he goes ahead, without slack
ing; If green he is cautious; if red
he applies the air to make a stop.
Sometimes a train is brought to a
dead halt before the engineer learns
what's up against him. The running
men tell me that the eyes of polecat's
and rabbits are almost as perfect sig
mails as cats eyes. No, there's been
no talk of training cats to act as sig
nalmen. Engineers would stand for
it, because they hate cats on general
principles, and if they had their way
would be happy to lay the universal
feline on the rails in front of their
locomotives and crowd On all steam"

Enormous Income

Chihuahua, Mexico.-Gen. Luis Ter
razas, whose wealth is conservatively
estimated at 5000 100000, celebrated
the seventy-dfth anniversary of his
birth at his home in this city few
days ago. Gen. Terrazas is said to be
the largest individual land owner in
the world, his estates in western Mexi-
co approximating more than $4,000, 600
acres He owns several hundred thou
sand head Of cattle, horses, sheep and
goats. Some Of the richest mines in
Mexico belong to him.
de and his son-in-law, Enrique
Greer, the acting governor of the state,
control the banking business of this
portion of Mexico, and they are largely
interested also in some of the big finan-
cial institutions of Mexico City. Three
fourths Of the residences and business
houses in this city of $4,000 people are
owned by Gen. Terrazas, and he re-
ce1ves an enormous income from rent
ais. Most of the large industrial plants
lin this city and throughout the state
were established and are owned by
Gen. Terrazas and Gov. Creel.
Despite his advanced age Gen. Ter
razas devotes several hours each day
10 directing the management Of his
many interests. He recently made a
horseback journey of more than 200
miles, inspecting his ranches and
farms. 1t was not an infreqent oc-
currence while on his trip to spend ten
or twelve hours day in the saddle.
He employs many thousands of Mexi-
cans and is highly regarded by them
all.
Gen. Terrazas has been constitution
al governor of the state Of Chihuahua
for many years. He retired from the
active duties of the Office few years
ago and had his son-in-law, Enrique
@. Crele, appointed to the place as act
Ing governor. Coz. Creel has Ameri-
can ideas and the state is making
wonderful industrial progress under
