Ill SOCIETY'S REALM

MEAT INSPECTION IS A HUGE FARCE

Light

is Thrown on Methods of

Inspectors in Large Packing Houses.

SOLUTION OF THE PROBLEM

DR. CUTLER, AN AUTHORITY ON THE SUBJECT, SAYS MUNICIPAL ABATOIRS WOULD REMOVE PRESENT EVILS.

Publishers' Press Kansas City, Mo., May 29. "Government Inspection of meat Is a farce, bo far as the home consumer is con

cerned. I have taken diseased meats' bearing the government stamp from wagons. The small Independent packers have to be watched more

closely than others. In order to make It pay they deal In 'crips' and 'downers.' The solution of the meat

problem is the municipal abatoir,

: where butchers can do their own kill ing."

, The foregoing statement was made today by W. P. Cutler, for several years a government expert Inspector In the Kansas City jacking houses, and present food Inspector of Kansas

City.

"I have stood six hours alongside

of one carcass in a Kansas City pack

lng house. I did so to make sure that the carcass reached the tank. An

other time, one of my taggers and

.myself were going through a line of

hogs on the export side. We found

a aiseasea carcass. mil it over on the American side,' said the tagger and over it went There is no law

requiring trichinae Inspection for hog

trade. That's how government in spectlon works. What does a plumber or gas fitter know about tu

berculosls? Yet you will find them

inspecting cattle and meat." Spoiled Meat Was Stamped.

Dr. Cutler said he had frequently found meat bearing the goverment

stamp that was purple and black, and some showing blood clotted veins. He said that was evidence that the an

imal was In fever when killed and the

meat should not be sold.

"One day recently," said Dr. Cut ler, "I met a meat wagon driver car rylng a side of meat out of a butch

er's shop. It was miserably thin and had an unnatural color. The driver said the dealer would not take it even

to make sausage. And that side of

meat had a government stamp. Per

haps some tagger had sorted it out

of the export side and put It on the

American side for home use."

The first dancing party of the season at the Cedar Springs Health Resort will be given on Friday night of this week, instead of on Saturday night, as was reported.

DEFENSE BROUGHT

III ITS EVIDENCE

Panhandle Co. Tries to Show

Sudhoff Guilty of Contributory Negligence.

ARGUMENTS ON THURSDAY

WITNESSES FOR THE DEFENSE

INCLUDE TRAINMASTER, SECTION FOREMAN AND MEMBERS OF TRAIN CREW.

The defense in the case of Sudhoff

vs. the Pennsylvania Railway for

damages on account of the death of the plaintiff's husband, took up their

side of the case yesterday. All through, an effort was made to show

that the plaintiff's husband, Jeff G.

Sudhoff, who at the time of his death

was an engineer on the Pennsylvania Lines, was guitly of contributory negligence, without which, he would not have been killed. Some of the important witnesses were railroad men who were with Sudhoff at the time he was killed and also some of the high officials of the Richmond Division of the road. The

accident occured at Sulphur Springs,

Indiana, and the railroad men claim that Sudhoff knew that the switch was left standing open but that he did not mske any effort to see that it was closed for tuc other engine. The trainmaster, section foremai., and sev eral members of the train crew testified. At the close of the evidence for the defense, the case was continued over until Thursday morning, when the attorneys will commence to argue. Attorneys Shlveley and Shlveley are handling the plaintiff's side and the railroad company is being taken care of by John L. Rupe.

REV. ANNA H. SHAW, HEAD OF THE WOMAN SUFFRAGE ASSOCIATION. It is now said that the mantle of Susan B. Anthony has fallen on the shoulders of Rev. Anna Howard Shaw, who recently succeeded Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt as president of the National American Woman's Suffrage association. Miss Shaw is not only an ordained minister, beins one of the few women invested with this distinction, but is a practicing physician as well. Notwithstanding the fact that 6he is self made in many ways, she Is a woman of liberal culture.

Trials Are Postponed. On account of the fact that the trial of the Sudhoff vs. the P. C. C. & S. L. Ry. case will continue over until Thursday, the two trials which were scheduled to be held that day have been postponed indefinitely. Mrs. Jessie Locke, the wife of the fugitive, was to have been given a hearing and the trial of Bennett vs. the C, C. & L. Ry., for $20,000 damages, was to have been begun.

AWFUL BLOW IS GIVEN Forepaugh-Sells Circus Decides to Give Richmond the Chilly Stare This Year.

It's an awful blow. After laboring under the joyful hallucination for two or three weeks that a real circus was

coming to Richmond, the worst has come. The tip given out that the Forepaugh-Sells circus would be in Richmond on June 19 has no more foundation in fact than the report that John Locke has surrendered. The circus trust has put Richmond on the black list seemingly for none of the big aggregations is headed this way. Later In the season Richmond may catch one, but even this is the merest speculation.

Overflowing with authors and poets as the sovereign state of Indiana is. it is seldom that one of this fraternity falls into the clutches of the Richmond police. This, however, came to

pass yesterday. In this case it was a

poet, little known to fame but evident ly a willing worker. He was taken up

for vagrancy and gave his name as

Bruce Warmouth. After being given a hearing in police court yesterday

morning Judge Converse decided that there were enough of the literary cult in the Hoosier state, so he gave Warmouth minute directions to the Ohio state line. The only thing

found on Warmouth was a book of

his own poems. The volume was entitled "The Love Lyrics of Bruce Warmouth." Some at the lyrics burned so with armorous passion that they actually frizzled up the pages on which they were scribbled. Here are a few mild ones:

A CHANGE IS DESIRED

AGITATION NOW BEGINS.

Pennsylvania Railroad Employr-j Ee lieve that Pensions Should be Giver

at Earlier Age Matter has Nevt

Been Brought to a Vote.

Agitation will probably be renewed

at an early date by the employes of

the Pennsylvania railroad for

change in the retiring age under thf

pension rules; also for an increasf-

in the amount of pensions. Pittsaurf

division's employes about two yeara

ago orfginated a movement to hav the age of optional retirement reduc ed from 65 to 60 years, and the de mand for this change gained consid

erable impetus for about a year.

Since last summer it has been heard of but little. The proposition

of the employes at that time was to

levy a contribution from each em

ploye, payable annually, which would

increase the amount available for pen

sions without adding to the burden the

railroad company has already assumed

In maintaining the pension scheme This arrangement could not be enforc ed unless it was agreed upon unani

mously by all employes who would bc-

alfected. It was never brought to e

vote.

The sentiment of the company's

employes, as nearly as can be learned

is, on the part , of the officers, for

continuation of the present plan. Oth

er employes favor the reduction ii the age limit. General Manager W

W. Atterbury expressed a willingnesfe

to have the matter put to a vote

whenever there is sufficiently strong

demand for such action.

"Some love one, some love two One I love that one's you.

from

'I wish I were a china cup

which you sip your tea, For then I know at every drink you would be kis'sing me." "If you love me as I love you No knife can cut our love In two." Prosecutor Jessup Is inclined to the belief that Warmouth is a plagerist. as he is certain the last ditty is from the pen of some well known poet either Shakespeare or James Whitcomb Riley.

State Fish and Game Commissioner

Z. T. Sweeney, of Columbus, is receiving letters from people in all parts of the state asking permission to remove

fish from bayous. When tne spring freshets and floods came fish were washed into these bayous. Now that dry weather has been on for some time the water has been getting lower

Commissioner Sweeney says he is

finds the conditions are such that the

the fish are not allowed to do so. The conditions have to be investigated

first and if it found that the fish are

dying, then the permission is given to remove them under the supervision of a magistrate or a deputy commissioner. :

Never In recent years has horse flesh been as expensive as it is today. Horse buyers over the country are paying exhorbitant prices for almost any kind of an animal. Liverymen are experiencing the most trouble In finding suitable horses for their business, while draft horses for ordinary purposes are holding their own in the market. . The farmers are paying high prices for horses, and now since spring work has begun the demand has forced prices higher. However, Richmond horsemen predict that the prices will fall within the next few months, as there will be natural reaction from the pres
