WILEY HOLDS UP 4
CARGO Of OYSTERS,
SAYS THEY ARE BAD
Chief Chemist Forgets His
Woes Long Enough to Ex-
anime Lot From Virginia.

Between jobs Of investigating Mr.. p.
Mutt. organizing an anti-smokers' league,
deciding what is beer and whisky, and
trying to save his official scalp, DR.. H.
w. Wiley, pure food expert, Is now the
watchdog Of the Districts oyster sup
plies.
Investigation of a shipment OF al
legged contaminated and decomposed
oysters to Washington from Suffolk,
Va, is being conducted by DR.. Wiley.
He held hearing yesterday, with the
oyster shipper, dealer, and a Congress
A sample test was mode Of oysters
shipped from the beds of II. h. Swami,
at Suffolk, Va, to Charles Weser, a
retail dealer at Twelfth and E streets
northwest, chemical tests showing their
contamination. 1t Is said.
Swami and Weser told DR.. Wiley that
they were innocently ignorant that the
oysters were contaminated Swami said
the bivalyes were tonged from hard,
rocky, clean bed, in eighty feet OF
water. He believes, it is said, that
the departments inspectors may have
found a few bad oysters IN the lot, but
that his beds are as pure as any in the
Virginia district.
Representative E. z. Holland of Vir-
ginia, in whose district Swann's oyster
beds are located, was present at the
hearing before DR.. Wiley in the interest
Of maintaining the reputation Of the
Virginia bivalve. He said he wanted
to know II the oysters are contaminated
that he may investigate the cause of
contamination, and take steps to re-
move it..
No evidence was taken by DIR. Wiley
as to the source of contamination, this
being a feature not within the jurisdic-
ton Of the pure food department

MARKET FOR IDAHO JACKS.
Five Thousand Dressed CarcasseS Sent
to Detroit from Jerome.

Idaho jack rabbits are now on sale
as a commercial article in the Pitts
burg market, according to a ditpatch
from Jerome. The dispatch states that
carload containing 5000 cleaned rab-
bits, packed with ice, has just been
shipped to the eastern steel city, con-
signed to a commission house there.
1t appears that merchandise firm
at Jerome first realized that the big
jacks might have some commercial
value, and in spite of the skepticism
with which the idea was at first receiv-
ed by the populace, the merchants an
nounced that on a certain date they
would ship east a car containing 5000
jack rabbits.
They then announced that they
would pay 6 cents each for jack rab-
bits, and the rest was easy. People
turned out with all the shot guns they
could muster, and the 5000 rabbits
were delivered to the merchants by the
time they were ready to ship them.
Each rabbit was packed in separ-
ate package on which was printed
some advertising for the Jerome coun-
| try, and the carcasses were packed in
| neat crates, each holding three dozen

| shipment of rabbits that has left the

The first authentic statement as to
the Bruneau project which the Times
has been able to secure, was that made
by d. c. MacWatters, manager of the
Kuhn interests in this section, who in
the presence of several people at the
land drawing at Jerome, stated
that he had on Saturday previous re-
ceived a. telegram from his firm stat
ing that the Bruneau had been fin
anced. The report was widely circu-
lated during the sale of the land on
the newest Kuhn project.
Aside from that statement, however
nothing has been confirmed.

day from an eastern trip, knew moth
ing of the matter and was surprised at
the report. No kilograms from any of
the Buhl-Milner representatives have
been received up to the present.
