We're passed as food. The inspec-
tor in charge told his subordinate,
whose attention had originally been
called to the dead animals, that
they had bled properly and there
was no reason why they should not
be passed. This occurred in
Chicago packing establishment.
The stomachs and spleens of hogs,
besides snouts, ears and palates,
were passed as sausage meat. This
ruling was made final after several
conditional rulings by the bureau

GREAT l9l2FLOOD
/. PASSES into GULF
Fall Indicated at All Stations, but
Little Relief From Water Prom
ised People of Louisiana for
the Rest of This Month.

New Orleans, May i4.-The crest
Of the 1912 Mississippi river flood
is passing through the ietsies gate
way of the river, 90 miles south of
New Orleans, into the gulf. AT
least, the river gauge readings in
dicate as much. For the 72 hours
ending at Z a. m. today, not a single
government gauge between New
Orleans and st. Louis has record
ed rise, whereas at most points a
receding stage was shown.
Today's weather bureau river
chart shows falling stages for the
past "a hours at all points except
st. Louis and New Orleans where
the river remained stationary.
AT Cairo there was a fall of IL
feet, 2 of foot fall at both Mem
phis and Arkansas City, and a fall
of 4 of a foot at Helena, Vicksburg,
Natchez, Baton Rouge and Donald
sonville. But, while the crest Of the
flood appears to be passing, little
relief from the waters is promised
the people of Louisiana in the spe-
cial bulletin issued today by the
weather bureau, forecasting con-
tinuance Of the danger stages
through the month of May. The
bulletin reads:
The Mississippi river below
Vicksburg and the Atchalafaya
river will change very little, or fall
slowly, but stages will continue
high throughout May"
