turned to his office, where he busted himself while awaiting a report. When Mir. Selander and Dr. Rad cliffe did return to the office some time later they reported to him that the boxes of pork had been taken and when ordered returned, only five had been brought back.
 Dr. Dumont told the court that on receipt of this report he called Spitzler on the phone and upbraided him for iisobeying the order to hold the boxes of pork in the place until | final disposition was made of them by the health department. Spitzler told the health superintendent that some of the men had evidently taken the boxes away without his knowl- edge.

Going there, they found meat in a box next to the grinder | They looked it over and discovered it to be "slimy, smelly, and unfit for human consumption" Are you going to use that meat?" the clerk was asked.

they noticed young man who was attired in the regulation white suit so common to meat store employees standing beside bench in the rear of the store taking pieces of meat from a box alongside and passing them through meat chopper. About 20 pounds of the meat had been already passed through the chopper and lay alongside.
 Selander testified that both he and Dr. Mcintosh picked up several of the pieces in the box and found them to be in a sweaty condition. There were several pieces of spleen among the pieces in the box and the odor arising from this box was bad, he said. Calling the attention of Michael Belkin, then manager of the store, to the condition of the meat, Selander testified that he went to the phone and called Dr. Dumont. Chairman John J. McBriarty of the health board was also called at this time and he too examined the con- tents of the box of unground meat He told the court that despite the fact that Belkin told him and the others present that the young man was instructed to trim the meat there was no knife or any other evil dence that this had been done.
 After conclusion of Selander's testimony he was asked several questions by Attorney A. A. Green berg, and then Dr, Dumont was l called to the stand as the second witness for the state.
 Dr. DumOnt On Stand
 The health superintendent testi- fled that he had gone to the store on 1 September 16 and he described the entrance as being through the front door. He also told the court, as had Selander, about the finding of the barrel of beef lungs and their sub sequont condemnation and Of finding the pork. In describing the condi- ton Of the lungs Dr. Dumont stated that they were discolored and showed signs of being decomposed. 1 When he left the refrigerator and returned to the store again his at trntion was called 10 the fresh shoulders by Inspector Selander. He picked up two of tho shoulders and examined them. He told the court that he found them to be quite soft and slimy and giving off very bad odor, When he asked for the man. aSer, a man called "Joe" stepped up and stated that he was the man. aSer and that MT. Spitzler had been transferred as district manager ot the company's stores.
 Dr, Dumont then stated that ht wanted the opinion of Dr. Radcliffe as to the condition of the meat. as the lungs showed considerable necrotic tissue about the spot wherC they were severed from the wind. pipe.

SOareS in Lisbon

Lisbon. Oct 2S tP-Vital Soares vice prcsident-elec of Brazil. arrived at Lisbon today from Chcrbourg. en route to Brazil. He expressed astcn- ishment at reports here that IT.. Julio Prestes, president elect, had ronounced his ascendancy to the presidency.
 "I myself will not rcnounce my post until I reach Brazil and see how things will develop" he said emphatically.
 Commenting upon success of the revolution, Sonor SoareS said "The deciding factor in the real situation was the change of front Of federal troops, which l must confess sur priscd mo, but things moved so fast that everything is possible"
 He said that he did not believe the revolution would solve the criti- cal problems confronting Brazil. Dr. Prestes, he said, was elected by strictly honest and constitutional methods in accordance with a ma 5ority vote of the Brazilian cleo toratc.

of Dr. Mcintosh when he saw the hamburg but that it was unwhole- some. He stated that his refusal to sign the package of hamburg was because it was not necessary to have chemical analysis to find out if meat is good or not.
 John J. McBriarty testified that he visited the store on September 26 with Inspector Selander. There was a controversy over the hamburg. In his opinion many of the pieces were bad.
 First Inspector John A. Dolan testified that he went to the store on October ' at the instigation of pr. Dumont and that when he en- tered the store he saw the lamb in question. It showed signs of being putrd and gave forth an offensive odor, he said. He ordered it taken out into the back yard for doctor ing" which consists of injections of kerosene oil. While he was engaged in the final steps of condemnation, he told the court, one of the store employees stood by and said. Tt was one of the most foolish actions in the world to take a lamb out where everyone could see what was being done"
 Attorney Greenberg stated on his argument to the court that the Strauss Roth Co.,, was a firm handling 20 tons of meat d week. and quoting the ordinance, claimed that no evidence of sale had been found. Irreparable damage had al ready been done and his clients were looking for vindication now, as some of the biggest men in the country. were interested in the case. he stated.
 Claims "Ulterior Motive" Attorney David L. Nair, for Belken, stated that, being a member of the city government, he felt strongly against anyone's selling meat unfit for human consumption. The law is very simple and must be construed strictly in the case. he said. He, too, stated that irrepar- able damage had been done to his clients. The board of health had no evidence of sale or attempt to sell, he asserted, and under the cir cumstances he felt that the judge must construe the law strictly, to the letter because the state had "miser- ably failed" to prove a violation of the Ordipanco pertaipiDp to the Dure i food act.
 "Dr. Dumont has no right, nor has any other member of the health department. to say what sort of merchandise anyone shall sell. Some ulterior motive, some outside interests are being brought to bear | to work to the disadvantage of the Strauss Roth Co.," Attorney Nair al- 1 legged.
 At this point a recess until 1:30 p. m, was take.

Imitation Jewels Seen

Chicago, Oct. 2S P-All was not Kimberley that sparkled last night at the opening of the sec ond season of the Civic opera.
 Though the Gold Coast resi- dents were garbed in their usual brilliance for the American pre- miere of 'Lorenzaccio," much of the customary tirst-night radiance was missing. Even assurances that the promenades would be paced by a host Of dress clothes men," failed to encourage a gen cral digging into strong boxes.
 Mrs. Rockefeller Mccormick, society leader, adhered to her de- termination to leave her famous Catherine of Russia emerald necklace in it's vault. She wore only q pair of diamond ruby ear rings. Many of the other society women followed her example. There were a few exceptions but in the main the women donned imitation glitter for the evening.

GAS DRIVES OUT
 RESCUE CREWS IN 1 OKLAHOMA MINE

them were the families of the en- trapped men. They realized there was scarcely a chance that any of the men would be brought out alive. Beneath the rescue workers, somewhere between the 2,5O0 and the 5000 foot levels, were the en- tombed men. probably dead, pos sibly fighting for their lives in the gas filled tunnels. Every possible avenue of communication with them had been cut off by the blast The electric lighting system was wreck ed.
 Donley was near the mine en- trance when the explosion, believed caused by accumulated gas in the shaft, occurred. His work was 10 drive the coal cars in and out of the mine and he had just returned from trip to the $500 foot level, His body was recovered.
 Relatives Come on Run
 The shock of the explosion was felt distinctly in McAlester and within a few minutes after it oc- cured roads were filled with run ming men, women and children. Among them were relatives of the miners who had lived in constant fear of just such disaster and who knew instinctively what had hap pened the moment they heard the blast.
 Scenes of wild confusion ensued about the mine entrance. Screaming women and children were driven back by hurriedly formed squads of pickets. The rescue crews were formed rapidly, gas masks procured and the work of digging away the debris began.
 Officials of the mine, which is owned by Marshall Dana of Kansas City and is located on Oklahoma state prison property, held little hope that the 2S entombed men would be found alive.
 They did not believe the miners possibly could be reached before noon today and said that unless they could slip into some fresh air pocket they would die almost in stantly from the poisonous gas.
 Gas Very Heavy
 The gas in the shaft was so heavy the rescue crews, even when pro- tected by the gas masks, could re- main inside only a short time before stumbling out to be relieved by new crews. They worked in squads of 10 and, armed with picks and shovels, dug frantically deeper and deeper into the mine
 Huge bonfires were built around the mine entrance 10 aid in provid- ing light for the workers An emer- gency electric lighting system was installed before morning.
 The Samples mine was considered one of the safest and best equipped in this section. It had a daily output of 200 tons. The % men in the tun- nels at the time of the explosion were members of the night shift. which was inaugurated only two week ago.
 The mine was rock ducted daily, Caterbaugh said to prevent ac- emulation of dust. This fact, he said, led him to the belief the blast was caused by gas.
 The 2S men entombed were:
 Nik Vontic Sam Lovera, B. Lewis, Bonny Blue, lsaak Cole, A. C. Ham, monds. Monticello Rosso, Jeff Me Cauley, Richard Faulkner, Robert Carrazer, Frank Husted, Seth Heath coat, Nick Nantick. Steve De Lucas, Tony Campbell, John Wright, Har- ry Lehman, Dominic Lovera, John Dito. Ernie Sears, Frank Meredith, w. c.

After the firing ceased the city re- sumed it's normal appearance. Dr. Osvaldo Aranha, liberal leader and acting president Of the state of Rio Grande Do Sul, arrived here by plane from Porto Alegre and imme- diately began conference with mem- bers of the military junta which de- posed President Luis and have as sumed charge.

He went into the refrigerator, where Dr. Dumont was looking over a barrel of beef lungs. Several of the lungs which were on top of the barrel showed signs of discoloration. Both men agreed that the lungs were not right and telephoned Dr. B. D. Radcliffe to come to the store.
