OPIUM QUESTION BIG ONE
Doubt Expressed whether China Is
sincere In Effort tO sup
press Evil.

SHANGHAI July 27.--CSpecial) )-Strenu-
Gus efforts are being made by the Taotai,
IL is claimed here, to close the opium
smoking establishments. Considerable scep-
ticism, some of which is perhaps justih-
able is expressed as to the bona fide sue
cess of the measure in view of the custo-
mary native procedure of carrying out the
letter of official instructions. while actual
preventive measures that might be of value
are neglected There has been consider
able show of military preparations even in
order to check possible disturbances on the
part of the habitual smokers and there
has been quite an influx of such people into
the settlements employed by a rabble of
employees and loafers.
In number, size and character the opium
houses in the native city are insignificant
compared with those in the settlements. AL
ready there are indications that a strong
demand will be made for the closing of the
licensed opium houses in the settlements
This step would undoubtedly have disas-
trous effects as long as the growth of the
poppy over al wide area remains un-
checked and the importation of opium is
permitted. 1t has been suggested that a
possible solution to the question is that
China should give evidence Of its bona
fide desire to stamp out the vice by show
ing itself willing to contribute equiv
alent revenue from the moneys received
from the import duty on the drug in addi-
tion to defraying the extra cost of police
surveillance.

MEAT TRUST lNVADES PARIS
Everything VIII Go SvvimminSIy II
Consent of Projects May BE
Secured.

PARIS, July 27-(Special)-M. Marcel
Vacher chairman of the Society of French
Cattle Breeders, has given some additional
information regarding the mysterious
scheme for an alleged American Meat trust
in this country. The undertaking has 50
far advanced that land has been bought
at Bonneuil on the Marne. at Granville,
near Havre, and at Villenave dOrnon, near
Bordeaux. Thus the scheme appears to be
as near forward in the two latter places as
near Paris Plans for the buildings have
been drawn up and the three municipal
councils concerned have sanctioned them.
But all important condition appears
TO be fulfilled. The sanction of all of the
projects of the departments is required as
well as that of the municipal authorities.
NJ Vacher considers that the scheme has
in it elements of danger for the French
cattle breeders. He believes that the Amer
lean packers, badly damaged by the
jungle" revelations of last summer, are
now trying the "clean slate" policy and
that they are starting branch establish
ments in different countries. In this way
It is thought that It will be difficult to de-
termine just the proper line of demarka-
tion between Franco-American and Amer
