BARNES MADE
G00O," +" BUT IN
PRIVATE TALK.

The request made by the executive COM
mittee that Theodore s. Barnes or the
Rhode Island Rendering company that hs
make good his charges regarding the
sale of tuberculosis beef i'm the markets
was not publicly complied with yesterday
afternoon
Mr. Barnes through his attorney. John
w Hogan, declined 10 make any state
ments except I'm private to Obadiah Brown
OF Providence and william Williams OF
Bristol. two members OF the committee.
He did this on the ground that as the
committee was not a judicial body, he
would otherwise be subjected To annoy
ing suits for slander and libel by those
who were looking for his scalp because
OF the revelations he had publicly limited
at
Gov. Utter. who is ex-offoo a member
OF the state board OF agriculture. was
present at the request OF the executivs
committee. and presided over the pro-
ceedings.
There were also present Michael K.
O'Meara. general manager OF the Ver-
mont Manufacturing company butter
Inc concern: DR. John $. Pollard, state
veterinarian. Cattle Commissioners Henry
s. Tanner OF Providence county. Philip s.
Money of Washington county and George
T.. Ssson OF Newport county.
, Even if the board knew all that we
know. IL would do no good said Mr..
Hogan. "for IL would have no power un-
der the law To correct the conditions that
exist There is no offence that the board
can proceed 10 punish.
''If this inquiry can be transferred to
some legislative committee. where pub
lie statement Is permissible and Mr..
Barnes can be protected, IT will be all
right; but he IL not prepared TO make
statements so that people who are laying
for him can come down on him for proof
or make him suffer.
I'VE did not have To come here and
would not II we had not wanted TO. Mr..
Barnes will give you the information. and
II you find IT true it exonerates him; IL
not. you have the privilege OF ealing him
a liar"
MIR. OMeara asked Mr.. Barnes II he
would guarantee that his remarks con-
cerning butterine did not apply so far as
the Vermont Manufacturing company was
concerned. Mr. Barnes replied that moth
ing that he had said was directed toward
that concern.
Gov Utter suggested that what Mr..
Barnes had said in print did not appear TO
be directed against the cattle commissions
ers. but rather against the system under
which the disposition OF cattle was regu-
lated
Mr.. Hogan coincided with this view, de-
claring that Mr.. Barnes had simply stated
the existence OF an evil that ought not 10
have taken place. and promising that his
client would tell anyone the governor
chose to name everything he knew about
the matter
A conference between the governor and
Messrs. Brown and Williams ensued. and
ii was arranged that the two latter should
give Mr.. Barnes a hearing in private.
IL Is understood TO be the intention OF
the committee TO acquaint the cattle COM
missioners with the substance OF the IN
formation given in order that every pos
sible preca ution may be taken I'm the fu-
ture TO guard against the disposition Of
any part of slaughtered tuberculosis cat
tie in any manner that may result detri
mentally to the public health
