Washington, Qa., June 1.—Mystery
still surrounds the Wiling of William
Q. Bryant at' ifls home in this county
some time Wednesday night. Coroner
Smith, of Washington, with two phy-
Blclans, went to the scene of the as
sassination yeaterday and an Inquest
was held. The coroner’s jury failed to
bring out the faintest clue that can
lead to the Identification of the party
who committed the crime.
Mr. Bryant was a man of quiet bear
ing, and It was thought that he had
not an eijemy In the county. The most
plausible theory Is that he was mur
dered for the purpose of robbery, as It
was frequently stated that he kept
PRESIDENT WILL
PUBLISH REPORT.
Packing, House .Information To Be
Given Out by Chief Executive.
Washington, June 2. — President
Roosevelt has decided to make public
the report of Prof. Charles P. Neill,
commissioner of labor, and James 13/
Reynolds, of New York, concerning
the conditions of the meat packing es
tablishments ah they found them pn
an Inquiry Instituted by the President,
primarily for n{f own information
The report will bo sent to Congress
next Monday. It will be accompanied
by a special message from President
Roosevelt, In which he will take .strong
ground in favor of immediate and
drastic legislation to correct the evils
which are exposed In the report.
The President had not expected td
make- public the report of Commis
sioner Nelli and Mr. Reynolds. He
felt that Its publication might Injure
the packing house Industry in this
country. Primarily, the Information
contained In the report was obtained
to be used as a basis for the legisla
tion proposed In the amendment to
the agricultural appropriation bill by
Senator Beveridge. He did not im
agine /there would be serious oppost
tion to a proposition to afford such in
spection of meats prepared for domes
tic cpnsumptlon'as is afforded to meat
products intended for shipment abroad.
The meat packers, however, rose in
arms against the Beveridge amend
ment, being Insistent in opposition to
it not only jn principle, but on the
question of paying for the proposed
inspection.
The President decided, therefore, to
make public the Nelil-Reynolds report,
which has been presented to him in
writing.
It will soon be cantaloupe time.
Messrs. J. A. Rumney and J. A.

attempting to back out of a thorn tree
into which the boat had run Mr. Rum
ney lost his balance and fell Into the
mnddy water of Rawls pond. Beyond
the discomfort attendant upon wet
clothing there was' no damage done,
however. '
