PACKERS ENTER DENIAL
Representative Appears Before tn
House Agricultural Committee.

Washington, June 6.-The house com
mittee on agriculture today decided to
comply with the request of the Chicago
packers to be heard on the NeillRey-t
nolds report regarding conditions In the
Chicago packing houses: The request
was an employee Of the Nelson Morris
company, but in this instance was au-
thorized to speak for all the Chicago
packers. =
Mr.. Wilson made a general denial of
the existence Of conditions in the pack
ing houses as set forth in the Neill-Rey-
nolds report. He began by inviting
the committee to come to Chicago and
spend a week in personal Investigations.
That he said would be the only way for
members to gain a proper idea OF what
the conditions really were. Some OF
the suggestions made in the report had
already been complied with by the pack
ers such as additional sanitary facili-
ties:
To Soak Off Labels.
AS to the charge that canned meats
were boiled in water to "freshen them
up,' Mr.. Wilsan said there was abso-
lutely nothing in this. Canned meat,
it had been put up as it was five min
utes afterwards providing no air had
got to. it. If air had reached the meat
1t would be spoiled beyond being fresh
ened up. What the cans were put in
hot water for was to soak off the old
label, which, he said, was an injury to
the appearance of the goods on sale.
Only Good Stock Butchered.
He denied absolutely that there were
any diseased cattle or hogs butchered
for food. In every carload of cattle or
hogs he said some were likely to be
dead and some diseased. The dead or
diseased hogs and cattle were SEN to
the Standard Rendering company,
which was a very different institution
from the Standard Slaughtering com
pany, altho the two were likely to be
confused in the mind.
The rendering company turned the
dead and diseased meat into grease,
which was a co-product in the manufac:
ture Of soap. Mr.. Wilson described in
detail the operation of preparing canned
meats, and when asked by Representa-
tive Scott of Kansas, a member of the
commission, elbow about the rope and
other foreign matter found with the
scraps no the foor?" Mr.. Wilson
said that what was probably seen in
this instance was the string on the
knuekle end Of what had been dried
beef.
Floors Are Scrubbed.
This string was used to hang the beef
in the smoke house, and when the beet
had been sliced off, this knuckle enc
was left. There was a bone in it ano
he said it was impossible to use it. The
bone would smash the machine if an at
tempt was made to use it.
~ do not believe Mr.. Neill got any
statement from anyone that they were
going to chop these pieces up. If he
did it was from some one who did not
know. or he did not get the whole state
ment.'
Representative Haskins asked about
the dirty floors. "Thesea foors,O re
piled MI. Wilson, care scrubbed every
night as clean as wood can be scrubbed
They are as clean as any Kitchen
