Grafters Indicted In Manila.

MANILA, Sept. l9.-Captain Ira l..
Fredendall, of the quartermaster's de.
partment was charged in the court of
first instance in this city this after
noon, with misrepresentation of public
funds. The filing of these charges is
the elimination of extensive investi.
cations by the insular authorities into
an alleged series of frauds perpetrated
by members of the quartermaster's de-
partment in the Philippines.
The inquiry resulted in the dis
covery of padded payrolls in quar-
termaster's shops and grating in the
lease of lighters. Both officers and
civilians are implicated and court
martials will follow the court pro.
ceedings.
Major General Wood continued the
inquiry originally begun by Major
General Corbin. The result of the in
vestigation has been a great saving
in transportation funds and a decrease
in graft, such as the manufacture O.
furniture, ETC., in the shops for the
private use of officers and civilians
High officials in the army and the gov
ernment are said to have been thu
beueticiaries.

LONDON, Sept. Is. - William H.
Hayden, representative for the Wor.

OF London, at the recent convention
OF the Master Butchers association
OF the United States which was held at
Milwaukee,, has returned to London,
and in an interview last night gave the
results of his observ atoms on visits to
various Chicago meat packing estab-
lishments. Mr.. Hayden says he made
an exhaustive examination OF the var
ious departments, from killing to can
ming. The Strengthening Is carried
out in a most humane and scientific
manner, although it might seem re.
pulsive to a nonpractical person.
He found the employees clean in their
person and the workblocks and floors
exceedingly clean and we'll kept.
Summing up his experiences Mr.. Hay
