traffic In diseased or spoiled meats.
II, as has been alleged, on seemingly
good authority further evils exist,
such as the improper use OF chemicals
and dyes, the government lacks power
TO remedy them. A law is needed
which will enable the inspectors of
the general government 10 inspect and
supervise from the hoof 20 the can the
preparation of the meat food product.
Ihe evil seems 10 be much less IN the
sale Of dressed carcasses than in the
sale of canned and other prepared
products; and very much less as re-
CARDS products sent abroad than as re-
CARDS thoss used at home.
In my judgment the expense OF the
inspection should be paid by fee
levied on each animal slaughtered.
III this is not done, the whole purpose
OF the law can at any time be defeated
through an insufficient appropriation /;
and whenever there was no particular
public interest in the subject it would
be not only easy but natural thus to
make the appropriation insufficient.
If it were not for this consideration /
should favor the government paying
for the inspection.
The alarm expressed in certain quar-
ters concerning this feature should be
allayed by a realization of the fact
that in no case, under such law, will
the cost Of inspection exceed 8 cents
per head.
4 call special attention to the fact
that this report is preliminary, and
that the Investigation is still un-
finished. It is not yet possible TO re-
port on the alleged abuses in the use
Of deleterious chemical compounds in
connection with canning and preserv-
ing meat products, nor on the alleged
doctoring In this fashion Of tainted
meat and Of products returned to the
packers as having grown unstable or
unusable from age or from other
reasons. Grave allegations are made
IN reference TO abuses Of this nature.
Let me repeat that under the present
law there Is practically no method of
stopping these abuses IL they should
be discovered to exist. Legislation is
needed in order TO prevent the possi-
bility Of all abuses in the future. IL
no legislation is passed, then the
excellent results accomplished by the
work Of this special committee will
endure only so long as the memory Of
the committees work is fresh, and a
recrudescence Of the abuses is abso-
lutely certain.
urge the immediate enactment into
law OF provisions which will enable
the Department Of Agriculture ade-
quately to inspect the meat and meat
food products entering into interstate
commerce and to supervise the methods
OF preparing the same, and to pre-
scribe the sanitary conditions under
which the work shall be performed.
| therefore commend to your favorable
consideration and urge the enactment
Of substantially the provisions known
as Senate amendment No. 20 to the
act making appropriations for the De-
partment Of Agriculture for the fiscal
year ending June 30th, 1907, as passed
by the Senate, this amendment being
commonly known as the BeveridRe
amendment. Theodore Roosevelt.

Associated Pres Dispatch by special wires

Associated Press Dispatch by Special Wires
Washington, June 4. - President
Roosevelt today sent to the Congress
the following message and report re-
lating to conditions in the stockyards
Of Chicago;
The Senate and House Of Represen-
tatives; transmit herewith the re-
port Of Mr.. James Bronson Reynolds
and Commissioner Charles p. Neill,
the special committee whom / ap.
pointed to investigate into the condi-
tons in tho stockyards of Chicago
and report thereon TO me. This report
Is Of a preliminary nature. / submit
10 TO you now because it shows the
urgent need of immediate action by
the Congress in the direction Of pro-
viding a drastic and thorough going
inspection by the Federal government
Of oil stockyards and packinghouses
and Of their products, so far as the
latter enter into interstate or foreign
commerce. The conditions shown by
even this short inspection 10 exist in
the Chicago stookyards ara revolving.
lt is imperatively necessary in tho
interest OF health and Of decency that
they should be radically changed.
Under the existing law Il is wholly
impossible TO secure satisfactory re-
suits.
When my attention was first di-
rected TO this matter an Investigation
was made under the Bureau OF Animal
Industry Of the Department Of Agri.
culture. When the preliminary state
ments Of this Investigation we're
brought 10 my attention they showed
such defects In the law and such
wholly unexpected conditions that
deemed 10 hest to have further i'm
mediate Investigation by men not con-
neoted with the bureau, and accord
ingly appointed Messrs. Reynolds and
Neill. It was impossible under the
existing law that satisfactory work
should be done by the Bureau Of Ami
NAL Industry. / am now, however,
examining the way in which the work
actually was done.
Before / had received the report of
Messrs. Reynolds and Neill I had
directed that labels placed upon any
package Of meat food products should
state only that the carcass Of the ami
NAL from which the meat was taken
had been inspected at tho time Of
slaughter. II inspection Of meat food
products at all stages of preparation is
not secured by the passage Of the
legislation recommended shall feel
compelled to order that inspection
labels and certificates on canned pro.
ductions shall not be used hereafter.
The report shows that the stock.
yards and paokinghouses ars not kept
even reasonably clean, and that the
method Of handling and preparing food
products Is uncleanly and dangerous 10
health. Under existing law the national
government has no power 10 enforce in
spection Of the many forms of prepared
! meat food products that are daily
| going from the packinghouses into
Interstate commerce Owing to an in.
adequate appropriation the Depart.
ment of Agriculture is not even able
TO place inspectors in all establish.
ments desiring them. The present Law
prohibits the shipment Of uninspeotec
meat TO foreign countries, but there i,
no provision forhidding the shipment
Of uninspeoted meats in interstat,
commerce, and thus the avenues o.

a few places we're suitable oil cloth
aprons worn. Moreover. men we're
seen TO climb from the floor and stand,
with shoes dirty with the refuse of the
tioors, on the tables upon which the
meat was handled. They we're seen at
the lunch hour sitting on the tables
on the spot on which the meat product
was handled, and all this under the
very eye of the superintendent of the
room, showing that this was the com
mon practice.
Meat scraps were also found being
shoveled into receptacles from dirty
hoors where they we're left to lie until
again shoveled into barrels or into
machines for chopping These floors,
II must be noted, we're in most cases
damp and soggy, in dark, ill-ventilated
roomsi and the employees in utter
Ignorance of cleanliness or danger TO
health expectorated at will upon them
ln a word, we saw meat shoveled from
filthy wooden floors, piled on tables
rarely washed, pushed from room TO
room in rotten box carts, in all of
which processes it was in the way of
gathering dirt, splinters, floor filth,
and the expectoration of tuberculous
and other diseased workers. Where
comment was made TO floor superin-
tendent about these matters, it was
always the reply that this meat would
afterwards be cooked, and that this
sterilization would prevent any danger
from its use.
A particularly glaring instance OF
uncleanliness was found in a room
whore the best grade Of sausage was
being prepared for export. It was
made from carefully selected meats,
and was being prepared to be eaten
uncooked. In this case the employe
carted the chopped-up meat across a
room in a barrow, the handles of
which were filthy with grease. The
meat was then thrown out upon tables,
and the employe climbed upon the
table, handled the meat with his un.
washed hands, knelt with his dirty
apron and trousers in contact with the
meat he was spreading out, and, after
he had finished his operation, again
Every evening, Wilmington daily commercial., 1906-06-04

took hold of the dirty handles Of the
wheel barrow, went back ior another
load, and repeated this process in
definitely. Inquiry developed the fact
that there was no water in this room
az all. and the only method the man
adopted for cleaning bis bands was to
rub them against his dirty apron or on
bis still tilthier trousers.
As an extreme example Of the entire
disregard on the part Of employees of
any notion of cleanliness in handling
dressed meat, we saw a hog that hao
just been killed, cleaned, washed and
started on its way to the coolingroom
fall from the sliding rail TO a dirty
wooden floor and slide part way into q
filthy mems water closet. 10 was
picked up by two employees, placed
upon a truck, carried into the cooling
room and hung up with other car
casses, no effort being made to clean It..
The following recommendations are
made:
Examination before slaughter is of
minor Importance and should be per
missive instead Of mandatory Fx-
animation after slaughter is of SUI
preme importance and should be COM
pulsory.
The examination Of all meat products
intended for interstate commerce at
any stage of their care OF treatment
should be consigned to the Bureau OF
Animal Industry, and no mark or sign
declaring that the inspection has been
made by government officials should be
allowed on any can, box, or other re-
ceptacle or parcel containing food
products unless the same has been
subject to government inspection at
any and every stage Of the process of
preparation.
Power should be given to the Secre.
tary of Agriculture to make rules and
regulations regarding the sanitation
and construction Of all buildings used
or intended to be used for the care Of
food products for interstate or foreign
trade, and to make such regulation as
! be may deem necessary to otherwise
protect the cleanliness and wholesome.

sold for foreign and interstate COM
merce.
IL should be forbidden to any person,
