Meat Inspection.

A meat inspection provision was COM
plete1 by the House committee on agri.
culture last night, and will be presented
to the House for action probably today
which it is declared by the committee
will insure that American meat and
meat products are heslthful, clean and
in every respect wholesome and fit for
food
The important features of the legisla-
ton are that it places the cost of the IN
spectiOn On the government and makes
an annual automatic appropriation of
81, 900, 900 TO pay the expenses. 1t re-
quires a rigid pOsl-mortem and ante NOR
tenn inspection Of all animals killed for
food. 1t requires government label as
a passport for all meat products which
enter interstate commerce, and, in add-
ton to this label, a certificate of purity
to the carrier and to the Secretary Of
Agriculture !or all such products which
enter foreign commerce. To secure this
label, the product must be handled in
accordance with sanitary regulations to
be prescribed by the Secretary of Agri-
culture, who is authorized to employ,
without regard TO the civil service law,
for the first year an adequate corps of
efficient inspectors to supervise the en-
forcement OF his regulations.
1t prohibits the use of personalities
or chemicals in the preparation OF meat
foods which are deleieri5us to health,
and leaves the matter OF determining
his question TO the Secretary of Agri-
culture The label on the product is to
indicate the ingredients, hut the date OF
manufacture is not required to be stated.
The sanitary requirements which the
Secretary is to prescribe and enforce
must insure complete sanitation as n
all buildings, whether slaughter-houses
or canning establishments.

ExpIosIon on a steamer.

Liverpool June l4.-An explosion
followed by FIRE, on board the American
line steamer Hsyerford while the vessel
was at her dock this morning, seriously
damaged the vessel and caused the death
OF six of the crew and the injury of many
others. The Haverford arrived yester-
day from Philadelphia and docked this
morning. As slevedores Nere unfasten-
ing the matches preparatory to discharg-
ing the cargo an explosion occurred in
the bold of the vessel. This was followed
Immediately by fire which spread to the
cargo. Men were blown in all directions
by the force of the explosion. One man
was blown To atoms, the pieces being
scattered over the deck, which presented
a CHASTITY appearance. Another steve
dore wa1 blown Jnt of the hold and bad
ly hurt. Several Others were terribly
burned. The bulkheads and part of
the deck were blown out, 80 violent was
the explosion. Five men are reported
to have been killed outright, or to have
died within a few moheRts after the eX-
pIosion. A sixth died on his way to the
hospital. Thirteen Of the crew were
taken to hospitals7snd several of them
are reported to be in a serious condition.
The FIRE spread rapidly and burned for
two hours before it was exlinguished.
The cargo consisted largely OF linseed oil
cake and it burned fercely. A great
deal of damage was caused to the vessel
and cargo.
The exact cause of the explosion was
not ascertained. Il is believed to have
been caused by spontaneous combustion.
As the explosive force was directed
downward, however, this has aroused
some suspicion that foul play was res
ponsible for the accident. II was at first
feared that some Of the men were caught
in the hold. As soon as the flames had
been somewhat subdued firemen with
smoke helmets were sent below to search
for other victims. The explosion oc-
Cured at O'Clock and at 10 o'clock the
fire was reported out. Officers were not
aware that the cargo of the HaverfOrd
contained any explosives which could
have caused today's disaster. 1t has
been suggested that the explosion was
caused by an internal machine, or by
explosives which were ipped as other
goods Some of the experts of the com
pany hold to the theory that the ex-
plosion vas caused by the fumes from
napiha soap in the cargo being ignited
by a spark from match lighted by some
lahorere

Federation of Labor.

Washington, June l4.-LsbOr leaders
| throughout the United States will gather
in Washington next week at the meet
ing of the executive council of the
American Federation OF Labor to plan
some uppercuts for the recalcitrant rep
resentatives in Congress who have
deigned to disregard the demand of or
ganized labor for certain legislation.
Congress may adjourn shortly after the
council cOnvenes on Monday, but the
federation leaders will endeavor to get
in few punches in its dying days. The
principal business of this session of the
council will be determination of plans
for the political campaign next fall.
The break between the federation
on one hand and President Roosevelt
and Speaker Cannon on the other oc-
CURED al the last meeting Of the coun-
Gil Since that time efforts have
been made to feel the public
pulse and ascertain just how far
labor will follow the Representatives in
Congress and how far the officials of the
federation. r ports will be made by
the various members of the council as
to the attitude Oflhe labOrers with whom
they have come in contact since this
rupture.
Besides the announcement that the
federation intends TO enter the next con-
gressional election to defeat the men
who would not grant the desired legisla-
ton. President Gompers and his follow
ers have done nothing. He says he has
in his hands the replies of large num-
Der of Representatives in Congress to
queries sent all as to their attitude to-
ward organized labor He has ttfeak
ened to publish these, but the pubiclIas
seer none Ir is certain that they will
not be made public before September,
and perhaps never.
The entire council will be asked about
the best policy to pursue. Since the
last meeting of the council, Congress
has done nothing to win the favor of the
federation. Attempts of labor to tighten
up the eight hour law have failed. so far
nothing has been done to please the labor
element in regard to more rigid immi-
grafton laws, although there is in sight
caucus of republicans in regard to the
matter But there will surely be no anti
injunction legislation, no convict labor
law and not even a child labor law for
the District of Columbia.
In short, not one of the things that
the American Federation of Labor asked
tor in its "bill of grievance" has been
done. The members of the council will
tall: over just how to get these things at
the next session. President John
Mitchell, leader of the miners, will be
in attendance, it is expected, and will
bring up several matters in regard to the
coal situation. The printers strike and
the various disagreements between the
various unions will be brought before
the council.

ASYLUM Investigation

The legislative investigation of the
affairs of the Eastern State Hospital
was concluded yesterday, whel Senator
Sadder announced that the committee
woul adjourn subject to the call of the
chairman.
Chairman Saddler, in happy speech,
thanked the citizens of Williamsburg for
their hospitality 10 the committee.
Colonel Lawless, counsel for DIR FOs-
ter, superintendent of the hospital, spoke
of the courtesies he had received at the
hands of the committee and the esteem
in which he held its members.
During the investigation more than
80 witnesses have been examined. The
official record will contain about 5000
pages OF typewriter matter.
The expense of the investigation, it is
said, will reach $1,000. There seems
to be four disputable facts brought out
By the host of witnesses examined.
First, that Dr. Foster is an able and
intelligent superintenl lent. who is active
10 the discharge of his duties second,
that the asylum needs larger apprOpria-
tons for its proper maintenance third,
that the negro insane have Jared better
at the hands of the Virginia legislature
than the white; fourth, that the attend.
ants at the hospital are paid starvation
wages--25 per cent. lower than any
other State 10 the union.
There is no doubt that these facts will
be properly reported to the General AS
sembly, that proper attention will be
given them and that the evils will be
remedied
