WASHINGTON, July 6.-Represen-
tatives of cattle growers and the
country's big packing houses were
given a final hearing today by the
house judiciary subcommittee con-
sidering Representative Borands res
olution for a federal trade commits
sion investigation of the packing in
dustry. Spokesman for the cattle mer
said an inquiry would be necessary to
insure reasonable meat prices to con-
sumers. An array of counsel for the
Armour. Swift and Cudahy. Sulzberg-
er and Morris companies argued that
such a proceeding was unnecessary
and would be certain to work incalcu-
liable harm to the packing industry.
They submitted masses of testimony
and statistics denying existence of
business practices prohibited by the
antitrust laws.
Action upon the resolution by the
fun judiciary committee is expected
shortly. Its next meeting will be held
Tuesday, but the subcommittee re-
port is not expected by that time. The
hearing concluded today began last
sion a substitute resolution broaden
ing the proposed inquiry TO a compre-
hensive investigation of all questions
affecting the growth. manufacture and
marketing of meat products and allied
industries was presented by Walter L.
Fisher, attorney for the American Ma
tiOnal Livestock association, and was
accepted by Representative Borland.
Mr.. Borland submitted TO the sub
committee a petition signed by 125
members of congress advocating pas
sage of his inquiry resolution. He and
Mr.. Fisher also submitted letters and
resolutions of many stock growing
and other organizations urging an in
quiry In his closing argument, Mr.
Fisher declared the fundamental pur-
pose of the cattle interests in urging
investigation was ito create conditions
to eliminate waste and expense in the
meat industry and insure to the con.
sumner products at the lowest pric,
consistent to those affected all alonl
the line, that will keep them in bus

TT is so fundamentally necessary,
said Mr.. Fisher, Ito get this basic in

that a constructive investigation il
imperatively needed to stabilize thi
business from ranch to kitchen.

BEGIN DEBATE
ON GOVERNMENT
REVENUE BILL

lfepuDiiCan a. r. leased Wlrel
WASHINGTON, July, 6.-The house
today began four days debate on
the administration revenue bill, de-
signed to raise 1897 100000 next year
by surtax on incomes and by taxes
on inheritances and on war NUM-
tons profits. Under a special rule
final vote will be taken before ad-
journment Monday.
Majority Leader Kitchin opened the
debate with a plea that the bill be
PASSED as a non partisan prepered-
ness measure, since so large a part
of the revenue to be derived from it
would go to pay for army and navy
increases. Republican leaders replied
by charging the administration with
gross extravaganza and by attacking
as\ ill-advised the means now pro-
posed to meet the treasury situation.
Mr.. Kitchin outlined in detail the
federal governments financial condi-
ton and the expenses that viii hay e

0RPET SCORES
AGAIN AGAINST
PROSECUT TON


WAUKEGAN, H., July .6-William
II. Orpet, the collegian charged with
the murder of Marion Lambert, left
Judge Donnelly's court room happy
tonight, in the belief that the I'M
qualified statements of chemists on
the witness stand today had demoI-
ished the case of the prosecution. His
counsel, James H. Wlikerson, Ralph
+. Potter and Leslie P. Hanna, also
were jubilant.
The hardest blow to the prosecu-
ton came from DR.. w. j. McNally,
who as a witness reversed the tes-
timony which he gave three weeks
relied upon his testimony and that
Cf DR.. Ralph Webster, both chemists,
to convince the Jury that Marion died
Of cyanide of potassium in solution.
Both testified to this as q. fact, but
today DR.. McNally, having conducted
| further experiments, swore positively
| that his first testimony was errone-
Gus and that the powdered poison
caused her death
Another important witness was DR..
| w. O. Krohn. an alienist, who testi-
| fled that Marion was of d historical
| type with a tendency toward suicide,
and that Orpet's brain fog" upon
| suddenly finding Marion dead, was to
| be expected III a young man of his
| temperament
Other witnesses We're Dr. j. A.
| Wesener, DR.. L. l. Shaw, Dr. Carl
| MINER, and DR.. John H. Long, all
expert chemists and PSYCHOLOGISTS.
| and Robert A. Hevener, a wholesale
| druggist. Another important point
| brought out was that the so-called
| cyanide of potassium found in the
greenhouse over which Orpets father
had charge, was in reality cyanide of
| sodium. All of the chemists exam
| ned today agreed on this. and that
it indicated only a trace-less than
one per cent of cyanide Of potassium.
There goes the two ounce bot
tie" remarked Mr. Hanna, as the
effect of this testimony became APP
parent Marion unquestionably died
Of cyanide of potassium poisoning
Nearly four grains of it were found
in her stomach DIR. Miner testified
that Marion would have had to take
pound and a half Of the dry cy-
anide of sodium from the greenhouse
to have gotten that much cyanide OF
potassium into her stomach. AS q
solution, he said. she would have
had to drink about three quarts
The state has contended all alons
that young Orpet obtained the poi
son from the greenhouse and carried
solution of it to Marion in a two
ounce bottle.
This testimony from the three
chemists was said to impeach thu
testimony of the states chemist,
who testified that samples of tn,
greenhouse poison was cyanide o
potassium forty mine per cent pure.
