GRAIN DIFFICULTY ADJUSTED.
Secretary Wilson Confers With Deal
ers Over Inspection Privileges.

A problem which has caused Secretary
of Agriculture Wilson some concern in
connection with the inspection Of grain in
Baltimore has. it is believed, been AMIGA
bly, adjusted.
The Department of Agriculture main
tains a laboratory in that city for the
standardization of grain. 1t is claimed
the grain dealers did not grant the de-
partment's representatives all the privi-
leges of gathering information which it
was believed they were entitled to.
What the department desired was the
right of inspecting grain in cars and on
vessels. 1t is said they were not given
as free a hand in the matter as was de-
sired. This was unsatisfactory. Secre-
tary Wilson threatened the removal of
the laboratory to some other city unless
greater spirit of cooperation was
shown.
Yesterday Secretary Wilson had a con-
ference with members of the board of
trade of Baltimore. AS result il is con-
fidently believed the matter has been ad-
justed to the satisfaction of the parties
in interest.

Pheasant Killed a Game Cock.

SOUTH NORWALk, Conn, June "a
A surprising demonstration of the supe-
rior pugnacious ability of wild over tame
birds was shown here recently when a
Monaghan pheasant tackled a game cock,
and although nature gave the pheasant
no spurs and the cock was much larger.
the pheasant killed his foe.
This he did merely with his bill. show
ing such strength. endurance and deter
mination that, after removing the eyes of
the game cock, the fight was short. The
pheasant appeared on Smiths Island last
winter and was fed by Capt. and Mrs.
Frank Lassen. Who keep the government
light here. 1t spent its time strutting up
and down the wire netting of Capt
Lassen's hennery. exciting the chanti-
cheers jealousy. Capt. Lassen accidental
ly left the hennery door open and the
fight quickly ensued. The pheasant is
now master of the feathered Seraglio.
