CLEANING PLANTS;
WARNING SIGNS UP
Workmen Are Ordered
to Keep Themselves

SANITARY CONDITIONS
ARE BEING IMPROVED
Foremen Say That Houses Are
Kept as Nice as It Is Possi
ble to Make Them.
By Private Leased Wire.
Chicago, June 5.—One of the effects
of the disclosures of packing house
conditions was seen in an attempt In
at least three of the plants to remedy
the conditions condemned In the re
port. ’ Toilet arrangements were reno
vated, floors cleaned, walls scraped,
light and ventilation Improved.
The surroundings of the workers In
these three plants were Improved 60
per cent In one day. It was said the
packers knew of the report Sunday
night, and that early In the morning
gangs of men were taken from their
work and placed at various cleaning
and whitewashing jobs, In preparation
for the throngs of visitors who were
sure to come. The general mnnager of
one big plant spent yesterday morning
In a down town plumbing establish
ment picking out the latest sanitary
plumbing.
"Lame" in Wash Room.
"We have been a little lame In the
wash room conveniences," he said. "In
this the report Is just. But If a man
is looking for things that are wrong
he can And them In Ills own kitchen."
Besides' renovating the plumbing,
the packing companies put up a varie
ty of signs all over the plants enjoin
ing cleanliness. One of'.theke was in
red letters, as follows:
6000 000 0 00 000000000
KEEP CLEAN.
Foremen must ate that em
ployees ' wash hands and keep
clean.
0000000600000000600
, - ..I*.
Hundreds of these signs wore pasted
all over the packing houses. The fore
men were told that- the rules against
expectorating must be enforced or dis
charge would result.
Warning Signs Galore.
In the sales room of Swift ft Co. were
found signs giving this warning:
"Employees getting meats dirty by
using dirty tools or dragging on floor
will be discharged.”
Another new one was one forbidding
the use of tobacco In all food producing
Tooms.
While denying the existence In .their
meat-preparing rooms of the conditions
described In the Nelll-Re.vnolds report,
officials of the Armour and Swift com-
lwinles proved reluctant to permit In
spection of the packing processes criti
cised.
No Filthy Methods.
Superintendent Conway, of the Ar
mour plant. Anally was Induced to per
mit a view of the roams In which the
various meat products are prepared.
Home of the conditions surrounding
the handling of meat were found to be
as described In the report. Other con
ditions, particularly Instances of
filthy methods, could not be found In
Armour’s.
Whether any of the unclean pro
cesses of handling . meats and meat
products exist In Swift's could not be
verlded. Superintendent Young declined
to answer the charges In the report,
and refused permission to visit the
rooms In which the meat Is prepared
for the lesser products.
The extensive use of wooden equip
ment-wooden tables on which the
meat la cut and wooden carta In which
the various parts are handled—waa
found to exlit In Armour’s, as describ
ed In the report. This Is true even of
the new hog-kllllng house, which Is de
clared by the packers to be a model of
Its kind.
Dry Qreaie on Carta.
As pointed out by the Investigators,
the main part of the carcass goes
ihrough the process under compare-
lively Immaculate conditions. The
althy element of the handling Is Inct
dent to the disposition of the lesser
product*. On a wooden-covered table,
surrounded by a dozen men with flying
knives, a great trough delivers at reg
ular Intervals the meat. First It goes
I ' one. who snip# off a piece, and than
i > another, who snips off another piece,
sod so on around the circle of butch
ers.
All these scraps are thrown Into
wooden carta, which are constantly
going full and returning empty. Some
of the carts were encrusted along the
upper edge with dry grease and filth.
The barrels In which some of the trim
mings are also hauled away looked
even worse.
"Are Cleanaad Nightly.”
"Thea# carta and barrels are thor
oughly scalded and cleansed every
night,” said Foreman Byers, of the
hog-kllllng house. "They are not dlr-
iv now. They may look that way to a
lerson who Is not used to slaughtering
surroundings, but porcelain carta would
hot be any cleaner."
"How about the wooden tablet to
which the government agents object
ed?' was another question.
,'"hy, we use zinc-covered tables
wherever we can,” said th* foreman,
•tut we could not use zinc over there
where they are trimming heads. The
butchers could not keep their knives
ir ‘Srp,working on the zinc table."
Spat Upon the Mast.
Foreman Jesulck, of the sausage de
partment, declared that no meat from
Which sausage la made la ever taken
■rum the floor, aa the government
sgenfa reported seeing In soma eetab-
u-hmenta. While he was speaking,
.'"'ever, a chunk of meat tumbled from

of the women worker*. While the meat

Cananea, Mexico, Juno 5.—:The dis
turbance which has shaken this camp
so thoroughly Is known to be but
part of a wide revolutionary movement
on the part of Mexicans throughout the
state of sonora
Tho object ft this Insurrection la to
drive all Americans from the northern
part of Mexico. Representatives
organised labor have had absolutely
nothing to do with It.
No Truth in Report.
The reports sent out to the effect
that the agitators of the American
Federation of Labor was partly respon
sible for the trouble here Is without
foundation. Among the American
mlneiM anti skilled u.ukm.’ii It.i .• tli.-ie
are many members of the federation,
men from Montana, Idaho and Colorado
camps, but they have made no effort
to orgnnlzo hero, find many of them

their blood boiling with Indignation,

and abuse of Americans. Not ono of

that might precipitate trouble.
More than a score of times In tho
last throe days ynui rot i e.n pondent
heard Mexicans Insult Americans on
the streets, and with vile abuso defy
them to fight. In even* Instance the
Americans, knowing that to fight would
bo to start a rJot, Jn which they might
be compelled to take many lives In
defenso of their own. Ignored the In
sults.

and to their manly self-control scores
and perhaps hundreds of peoplo owo

Cananea Is convinced that tho strike
was for the purpose of getting Ameri
cans out of this section more than for
anything else.
I Ono of the demands of the strikers
Is that Mexicans be given 80 per cent
of the positions requiring skilled labor.
