Meat Inspector Resigns Because, Sys-
tenn Is IntoierabIe.

st. Louis, Mo, June 11.-After eight
cen months service as a United States
meat inspector in East st. Louis pack
ing houses. ]. f. Harms has resigned
and has written letter to Secretary
of Agriculture James Wilson demand
ing an investigation of the meat inspec-
ton system at the ~~4'onal stock wards.
Harms says he resigned because he
could not tolerate the conditions he saw
and that inspectors are too lenient with
the packers. He says no personal vim
dication prompted his letter Harms
asserts that ~. S. inspected and
passed. as it appears on products of
all the packing houses, is meaningless
because of the inadequacy of the in
spection-
Harms, in the course of his letter.
says:
"On April 1. 1909. Doctors Graham
and Stingley retained and condemned
eleven beef carcasses for cancellation.
On April 2, Doctors Clancy and Mead
ors released six of said carcasses to the
packers. The remaining five were
tanked and destroyed.
"On the morning of April was in
cooler and a packing company super
intendent came in, when his attention
was called to the eleven carcaSses, he
said: Yes, they are bad lot and had
1 been on the floor last evening would
not have let them come down, but
would have sent them to the tank
Men holding good positions with the
packers see and know these things and
acknowledge they are wrong. 1 have
seen animals in a dying condition drag
ged into the killing beds and marked
u. S. inspected and passed.
"Some of the filthiest things imagin-
able are practiced in the sausage de-
partments, such as using bladders for
castings without thorough washing or
cleaning, the use of filthy trire in sau-
sage, and the use of Shiny hog stom-
achs for castings or containers the
using of meats that have fallen on the
floor and are taken up and used with
out any pretense of cleaning.
'"These are all permitted by those in
charge. If an inspector calls their at
tention to any of these wrongs he is
told as I was, that the people who eat
such stuff are too lazy to prepare any
thing for themselves and ought to have
such stuff.
sI will give another instance that
happened elsewhere. The meat inspec-
tor in the department held 5000 or T.
600 pounds of cured meats for being
sour, and mind you, four or five other
inspectors We're called in and they all
pronounced the meat sour. Your Doc
tor Meadors released it to the packers
Chief Inspector Clancy, discussing
the charges. asserted that such cases
were not uncommon because the duties
of the chief inspector called for de-
cisions in matters of doubt.
MANY of the other charges I am sure
can not be true" said Dr. Clancy 1.-THE
conditions cited by Harms would not be
tolerated for an instant. He has not
complained to me about my decisions
nor to my assistant, DR.. VIM. H. Mead
ors. We are ready to be investigated
at any time"

New York, June 11.-Katherine
Clemmons Gould who was the first

for separation from her husband,
Howard Gould, seemed nervous at

although he sat but a few feet.
The long delayed hearing before
Justice Bowling. who will make his
finding without the aid of a jury, is
the elimination of a case that began
in May, 1907, and has been marked
in its continuance by many SEN
sationa1 accusations of misconduct
and attempted subornation of wit
nesses Mrs. Gould alleges that her
husband deserted her without just
cause on July 16. 1906 Howard
Gould answers that his justification
was the habits of the plaintiff, that
since he left her he has made her an
allowance of $25, 900 a year, but that
she is extravagant, Incorporate and
has been guilty of misconduct. The
wife denies the charges and asks for
an allowance of $4,000 a year to
enable her to live in the manner to
which her husband had accustomed
her.

She had the same inevitable answer
for a long file of questions as to ac-

quite a littl~ bearish. Part of the break
was due to stop loss selling by the
early buyers following the strength in
Liverpool. MfllerS continue to come
after cash wheat at fancy prices, sales
here yesterday $1,000 bushels. Some of
the very best crop observers still in
sist that the big wheat counties in
Kansas are sure to show small yield.
Stocks are disappearing very fast. in
the northwest at the rate of a million
bushels a week at Minneapolis. Any
change in the spring crop outlook from
this on will be in favor of buying. We
believe in a conservative buying posi-
ton in these late months as the dis
count under cash wheat prices is too
great to make short selling safe.
CORN-Again the professional bears
= corn were punished yesterday by
the sudden falling off in receipts and
the higher cash market, together with
wet weather prediction over the corn
states. It would seem that these con-
ditions must be Offset very soon by fine
weather and a large movement for SELL
ers at this time on the swells. On the
other hand the late corn months rep
resenting the 1908 crop are at a killing
discount under cash corn.
