June 4.—President Roosevelt’s messags transmitting tho Nelll-Reynold report wan read In the house and was received In absolute si lence. The death of Senator Gorman caused an immediate adjournment of the senate, nnd the meesuge nnd re port were not preHented.

Representatives of the beef trust ere closeted three hours with Wads worth thla morning, while Lorlmer was reporting the result of his quick visit to Chicago to his colleagues, Mudden, Mann and Boutell. President's Message. The president’s message was In part aa follows: "This report Is of a preliminary na ture. I submit It to you now because if show** the urgent need of Immediate action by the congress In the direction of providing a drastic nnd thorough go ing Inspection by thfc federal govern ment of all stock yards nnd packing houses and so far as the latter enter Into Interstate or foreign commerce. Con ditions shown J>y even this short report to exist In the Chicago stock yards are revolting. It Is Imperatively necessary In the Interest >>f health nnd nf ilecen- that they should be radically changed. Under the existing law It Is wholly Impossible to secure satisfac tory results." By Private Leased Wire. Washington, June 4.—Disclosures so horrifying aa to be almost beyond be lief are made In the special report on the Chicago packing houses prepared by Charles P. Kelli, commissioner of labor, and James B. Reynolds, of New York, and submitted to congress today by President Roosevelt. In his message accompanying the report the president characterizes con ditions found by the two Investigators as “revolting," and urges Immediate and drastic legislation "In thd Interests of health aod decency.” Recommends Beveridge Bill. He not only recommends the passage of the so-called Beveridge amendment to the agricultural appropriation bill, but threatens to destroy the foreign business of the packers should congress fall to provide for Federal Inspection "f ni'-.its .if all stages of preparation. In the event of such failure the pres ident soys he will be compelled to order that Inspection labels and certificates on canned products shall not be used hereafter. Without, these labels the products will be excluded from Euro- pp.’in markets. Is Not Nice Reading. The Kelll-Reynolds report Is not nice reading. It Is a story of filth and pollu tion. Some of the statements are ac tually sickening. The packers are charged with dis placing absolute disregard, not only of the accepted rules of sanitation and cleanliness, but also those of common decency. In describing dirty conditions In the meat handling rooms and the disgust ing practices of the employees, the two Investigators have been compelled to use plain language. They tell only what they actually saw during their two and a half weeks' visit In Packing- town. Numerous affidavits were presented to them, most of which were rejected, BV POISONOUS MEAT Sensational Declara tion Made By Gen. Miles. By Private Leased Wire. Kansas City. Mo.. Juno 4.—“I beilevi that 3,000 United States soldiers lost thelrvlives because of adulterated. Im pure, poisonous meat,*’ said General Miles, commander-ln-chlef of the army during the war with Spain, today. "There Is no way of estimating the number of soldiers whose health was ruined by eating Impure food. "The disclosures about the packing house products now being exposed are no news to me. I knew It years ago. I told what I knew then. Had tho mat ter been taken up at that time thou sands of lives would have been spared. "I have a barrel' of testimony on the subject In the way of affidavits that I collected when I tnado my Investiga tions several years ago. The Investi gation closed and refused to hear 2.000 witnesses whom I had ready. At that time I could have secured the testimony of 10,000 men that the canned beef sold to the army was lm-ure, adulterated and unwholesome. "In my Investigation of embalmed beef during the Spanish-American war I found poisons were used to preserve meat. ”1 turned the reports over to the war department and n whitewashing In vestigation was Instituted and success fully carried out. The report was that n colossal error had been made. As a matter of fact, It was a colossal fraud, and the persons that, perpetrated It and were Interested In It should have been sent to the penitentiary." as being beyond the possibility of veri fication In the limited time at their disposal. Inquiry 8till in Progress. Attention Is called by both the presi dent and the Investigators that the present report lr only preliminary, and that certain serious charges, especially those in connection with the alleged Improper use of chemicals and dyes In "doctoring" meats that otherwise would have to be discarded, are still the sub ject of Inquiry. However, the report submitted today more than sustains tho most serious allegations that have been made by Independent Investigators respecting the lack of sanitation nnd cleanliness, and shows graphically that the present system of government Inspection Is en tirely Inadequate to prevent germ- laden meat products being thrown gen erally on the market at home as well ns abroad. Conditions are Described. Prefacing their report with the re mark that they have restricted their statements to "those practices and con ditions which we found most common, and not confined to a single house or class of houres," the Investigators proceed first to describe the conditions of the ynrds. They say that the pave ments are mostly of brick, laid with deep grooves between them which In evitably fill up with manure and re fuse. "Such pavements," they declare, "enn not be properly clennctl, and Is slJmv and malodorous with wet, yielding clouts of 111-smelling dust when dry."
