CONVENIENTLY INSPECTOR
 CONDEMNS THE HAMS
Agent of Government Takes Action After Examination
 Last Saturday.

DOUGLAS. June f1.-(Special.)- )-
 On Saturday Dr. F. T. Bray, an in- spector of the United States govern ment bureau of animal industry, ar rived in Douglas under the direction of his department at Washington for the purpose of making an examination of a certain lot of hams in the Copper Queen store in this city. It had been reported to the department through the office of the United States attor- ney by affidavit made by a former em- ploye of the store that an attempt had been made to clean up a lot of hams that were unfit to eat. After a thor ongh inspection of the hams, some sew enty in number, Dr. Bray condemned them as not being in fit condition to be offered for sale and had them sacked up and sealed. They will be burned as the best means of getting rid of them.
 About two weeks ago and sometime after the publication of an affidavit concerning these hams the city and county health officers examined the meat and by a unanimous report stat ed that the affidavit had greatly exag- gerated the condition of the hams and gave it as their opinion that the Cop per Queen Consolidated Mining com pany should not be adjudged guilty oi selling, offering for safe or having in their possession diseased, rotten or wormy hams"
 Those in the city today who are members of the city health board are Mayor Adamson and R. w. Arthur. Of the city council. Mir. Adsmson was IHr hn at and when told of the action of the government inspector replied that he had examined the hams and that he considered them not to be in rotten or wormy condition as had been charged; that he made his report after an unprejudiced examination.
 T would make the same report again today on those hams should l find them in the same condition they were" said the mayor q considered that the hams were all right and with that belief signed the report. 1 acted from what saw and have no apology to make because someone else has said the hams should be condemned IL has been abotu two weeks since l saw the hams and their condition may not be now what it was then"
  amined the hams and out of the en- tire lot had only found one that was really in bad condition
 Tt is true that the hams were not in the very best condition" said Mir. Arthur. but so far as being rotten or wormy they were not in that con- dition and the affidavit calling atten- ton to them had been greatly exag- eerated" !"
 Mir. StTodthof manager of the Cop per Queen store, was called on and asked about the condemn ation of the hams. Tt is true" said he. that Dr. Bray came here Saturday and after making an examination of the hams in question decided that they were not in condition to be offei ad for sale; he condemned them and they will be burned
 Since the examination of these hams by the city health officers they have been left hanging in the base. ment of the store and none were dis posed of. Since the first examination of these hams they had changed some. what in appearance, mould appearing

on the outside of them and ;n one or two some worms were found. These worms came from fly blows which could have been deposited since the examination made ten days ago.
 T am perfectly satisfied that the re port of Dr. Bray Will exonerate the Copper Queen store of any intention or effort to dispose of any impure food. Since the county and health of- ficers made their examination of this lot of hams there have been sold not less than six hundred hams in no way connected with those in question. Had we been anxious to dispose of these questionable hams We had plenty oi time and opportunity to do SO"

OUTLOOK FOR
THE OYSTERS
West Florida Beds Believed
to Have Suffered Less
Than the Others.

As a consequence OF the late drouth
and the large number of leeches that
have been observed en- some Of the
bars in this section Of the state, local
fishermen are somewhat afraid that
the local oyster season will not be
as great a success as It has in pre-
vious years. Other points in Flor
ida report the same state of affairs,
but it is believed that West Florida
will be more fortunate in the total
crop than some of the southern coun
ties, particularly in the nefghborhood
of Tampa.
One Of the owners Of large oyster
beds, covering about four square
miles, near Tampa, estimates his loss
at about $4,000. but local Oystermen,
when told OF that estimate, expressed
the belief that the season will fall a
little short of last year, and that
good prices will prevail. Whether Or
not the beds have been damaged by
the dr0uth CT the early summer, will
not be known for some weeks.

opinion be safe criterion, there is
no chance that the Southern Railway
will accept suggestions of Governor
Glenn of North Carolina, that the
Southern Railway withdraw its pres
emit action and wait for the decision
of the supreme court of the United
States on the two cases now pending,
one in the state courts and the other
in the United States circuit court, or
that the road give the rate law a fair
trial, and if found that it is really con
fiscatory taat road could depend on
the sense of fairness of the people to

for the Southern Railway said today:
The papers have not made it clear
that it costs us just eighty-siX and
thfrty-five hundredthS cents for every

North Carolina If we accepted the
reduced rates that the state law has

TERRIBLE
NEW YORK TRAGEDY
Young Widow of Unblern-
ished Reputation is
Murdered.
BODY Is FOUND IN HER ROOM
SECOND DAY AFTER DEATH
NO KNOWN MOTIVE AND NO
GLUE TO THE MURDERER.
BY Associated Press.

New York, Aug. 21.-The Brooklyn
police today arrested three men as
witnesses in an effort to ind the MUIR
derer of Mrs. Lena Schem, the young
widow, whose body was found in her
apartments last night. she was not
seen alive after her return home last
night, escorted to the door by three
women.
Mrs. Lena Schem was found in her
apartments at 7109 Flushing avenue,
Brooklyn, with the skull crushed, with
marks of strangers fingers on her
throat, and the blood-stained and dis
ordered room showed signs of a ter
rible struggle with the murderer.
There was no indication of robbery,
and no evidence has been found that
would tend to show that the woman,
who bore an excellent reputation, was
a victim of jealousy.
Although half a dozen families oc-
cupy apartments in the same house,
and there is plain evidence that the
young widow made a desperate strug-
gle for life, no person has>been found
who heard the slightest morse in the
room, only a few feet distant from
some of them. the woman had been
dead two days before d neighbor,
whose apartments are just across the
hall, discovered the fact.
One man, an occupant of the same
house, has been locked up by the
police as a material witness" His
arrest was caused by the discovery of
a stained knife in his room, but the
police said today they did not believe
he had any part in the crime.
description of the supposed slayer
has been obtained, and the whole city
is being searched for him. The mo-
tive for the crime, however, is q COM
plete mystery to the police
