—the meat 1s' constantly being con
demned. There has been an unusually
large amount-of meat thrown out re
cently, and It goes without saying that
a force of halt a doxen Inspectors Is
entirely Inadequate.
Asks for Inspectors
"Last weak 1 asked for at least fifty
additional Inspectors. It does not nec
essarily follow that they will be de-
taled to meat Inspection, for there Is
less demand for watchers In the pack
ing houses at some periods of the year
than there Is at others. Just at this
time tvs need a large force, as It Is the
bob-veal season.”
George A. Christian, secretary of
Butchers' Union, No. 174, himself a
faussge maker, la authority for the
statement that there Is little difference
between packing houses In Chicago and
those In New York.
Conditions Are Hidden.
'This agitation,'’ he said, "has sat
the peckers In New York on edge, and
they will now fall over themselves to

Mr. Christian said further that In-

spectors employed by the board of
health will avail little, because men

Chicago. May 3L—Ths head of ths

uklng of ths charges of Upton Sln-
Galr. said this afternoon:
"These malicious persons who are
making unwarranted attacks upon tbe
packers are dotr.g a greater wrong than

false; they have not the frame work

Madrid, May 31.—Spain has a new
queen. At noon. In the church of San
Geronlmo, King Alfonso and Princess
Ena of Battenberg, In ths presence of a
most distinguished assembly, heard
the words, pronounced by a cardinal,
which mads them man and wife and
gave to Spain a new queen.
The scene In the little church was
gorgeous. Members of all the royal
families were there to do honor to the
young couple, while the republics of
the world also were represented.
Church is Crowded.
Fully 1,200 people crowded the church
to Its capacity, while ten thousahd who
had not the entry, Jammed the streets
for blocks around, anxious to catch a
glimpse of the boy king and his queen.
From the time the wedding cortege
left the royal palace until It reached
the church It passed through serrld
ranks of cheering people, who showed
by every mesne In their power their
love for their young king.

Troops lined the streets to preserve
order and mingled with the crowd, was
a great force of ths best detectives
from Paris, London, Berlin and Rome,
for there was a fear that the anarchists
would take advantage of the;occasion
to make a demonstration against the
king, and every possible precaution was
taken to prevent anything of this sort.
A circumstantial story #as current
that several of the anarchist colony at
Paterson, N. J., had started:for Spain
to kill the king during the wedding
festivities and a close watch has been
kept for them.
The king left the palare shortly after
_ o'clock and the wedding' ceremony
did not take place till noon. To reach
the church the royal cortege traversed
five miles of stmts, giving all Madrid
a chance to see Us sovereign on his
wedding day. • . •
It was for this reason that ths
church of Sen Geronlmo was chosen for
the ceremony, being a long distance
from the king's palace. The route was
through ths Calls del Batleu. the Plaxa
de Oriente, the Calls del Arsenal, the
Puerta del Sol, and the Carrera de San
Geronlmo.
The king and queen will return to
the palace by way of the Calls del

Wisconsin, Sullivan of Illinois, John

London, May 31.-13:23 p. m.—Another dispatch
to a news agency from Madrid sayB seven persons were
killed and that thirty were injured by the bomb ex •
plosion. It is further asserted that although five per
sons were arrested on the charge of being connected
with the outrage, tho man who actually threw the
bomb hns not been apprehended.
Madrid, May 31.-rA dynamite bomb was thrown
at the royal procession at tho end of tho Calle Mayor.
Tlw royal couple were unhurt, but several persons were
killed and injured.
The assrihsiu stood on a balcony which projected
well out over the street, and as the royal carriage
approached lie threw tho death dealing missile. It
fell in front of one of the royal carriages. There was a
blinding flash and a loud report.
Everybody seemed stunned for a moment, ft
was seen that two of the horses which were drawing
the vehicle had been killed outright and tho two oth
ers were wounded. It is known that one of the cquo-
ries who was riding alongside the equipage was killed
and a child in tho crowd was killed.
It is reported that several others of the bystand
ers were slain or wounded.
As soon as tho temporary shock had passed a rush
jvas made by police, soldiers and people for the house
from which the bomb had bocu thrown. Tbe only in
mate was a young lad who while denying all knowledge
of the bomb throwing was taken into custody. It was
with difficulty he was protected from the people.
Through all the turmoil King Alfonso and
Queen Ena acted with exemplary coolness and cour
age.
His majesty sent one of his aides to ascertain
what loss of life there had been nnd then order having
been temporarily restored, ordered the procession to
move on to tho palace,
Tho city is wildly excited and all who are sus
pected of sympathy with the anarchists ar? Ving arrest
