SECRECY'S VEIL TORN BY RAND OE DEATH MAN AND WOMAN LIVE TOGETH ER 17 YEARS AS BROTHER AND SISTER. REFUSED TO GRANT By Private Leased Wire. Los Angeles, Cal, June 7.—Death has torn the .veil M SSCTSCy from the lives of Wllllnm Crosthwalte and Mrs. A. E. Torrey, and revealed a story of double life that hns startled the pious element of University district and set hundreds of tongues wagging. Carefully guarding their common se cret, Crostbwaite and Mrs. Torrey lived logether as brother and sister for sev enteen years and not until the sod of Hollywood cemetery had closed fore- ever above their earthly remains did the true story of their relatives come to light. Though In his Eighty-fifth year. Wil liam Croathwalte was hale and hearty up to his last Illness, which terminated fatally. Mrs. Torrey died six weeks later, aged almost 74. Not one of their neighbors dreamed that duplicity marked their existence. The sons are I. L. Crosthwalte, presi dent of tht Atlantic Coast Steamship ''ompany, with offices In the Mills building.

Special to The Georgian. .Jackson, Miss., June 7.—A decision of far-reaching Importance and of es pecial Interest to every prohibition state In the Union, has been rendered by Judge Niles, on the bill filed In the Harvert King Distilling Company, of Kansas City, seeking to secure a man datory Injunction compelling • the American Express Company to accept for delivery C. O. D. liquor packages, billed to parties In this state. Judge Niles has sustained the de murrer filed by the express company, and refused to grant the mandatory Injunction, chiefly for the reason that at the recent session of the Mississippi legislature they Imposed a prohibitory tax of 350 on each express office hand ling ehlpmente of this character nnd enacted several other statutes seek ing to stop the C.

LARD VAT NOT EMPTIED AFTER MAN DIED IN IT By Private Leased Wire. New York, June 7.—Far more startling than anything: heretofore print ed about the beef trust methods were the revelations made by Mrs. Ella Reeves Bloor Wednesday. She Is the Intrepid and shrewd woman who Investigated the actual conditions In odorlous Packlngtown. Working with her husband, Mrs. Bloor accomplished remarkable de tective work and the results of her Investigations of the actual conditions In the great plants were embodied In the (Vhclal government report, which the president used In his message to congress. In writing about the frightful facts which she unearthed, Mrs. Bloor has token care to be entirely accurate, and she devotes herself to “hitherto unprlnted discoveries, which had been suppressed.” By MRS. ELLA REEVES BLOOR. man was removed from the tank and carried off to an undertaker's estah llshment. His widow was given $2,500 hush money and work was resumed In the room. Although the company denied that such conditions exist at prepent, wo were fortunate In finding the man who actually Ashed out the body. “Was this tank emptied after the Anding of the body?” I usked tills work A S horrible and nauseating as were the facts that have already ap* peared in print In connection with the exposure of the beef trust, a thousand times more • are the facts which will perhaps never appear In the newspapers, because of their na ture and Immoral color. Perhaps It Is better, after all, because If the people saw and knew what I found during my Investigation, there would be considerably less meat eaten and serlouB trouble might follow. The details of the lard vat, arid how the men fell Into the great caldrons of hot grease and their bodlea were later A‘ , hrd out. hut tic tank n*-\**r drained, and that product sent out as pure and wholesome lard Into our households; tho red Alth of the killing rooms, the brute mannerisms and habits in vogue ut present In the canning rooms, and all the other horrors too lllthy to de scribe, would force u nation to rise In Its Indignation and demand from the government its satisfaction and the Jelling of those responsible for the wholesale pplsonlag of the people at large. Fell Into ■ Vet. It would seem, Arst of all, that as lit tle consideration as Is given the pro ducts that are to go out Into the midst of the people, much less care Is taken for the protection against Alth and trickery with* the meat that Is fur nished our soldiers and sailors. The cry seems to be “Any old thing Is good enough for the government,” and to this end a perfected system for cheating the government Is In oper- atl'»n. In tli** rendering department where they manufacture lard, butterlne and other by-products, the “scrape” from the Aoors are used for the purposo of rendering and they are thrown Into a great caldron. A small army of men are employed here. Wo discovered that n week before our visit there a Polish workman had fallen Into one of the vats. As soon as the foremen of the room heard of this man's falling Into the vat, all of tho other men were ordered from the room, with the exception of two help ers, and the search for the body of the worker began. Body la Removed. After an hour's work the body of this man.. “Indeed It was not, but It went out as Ane lard the next day or so,' marked tho workman, laughingly. “Why, you don't think they threw out that Ane vat of lard and lost thousands of dollars?" he added. Other Contagious Diseases. I .have said previously that there were many cases of men and women who were suffering from tuberculosis at work In the canning room. I want to say now thnt there are many cases of far more contagious dlseuecn than consumption at work In the factory And these men have with them their medicines, leave tho table where they are at work, go Into small rooms pro vided for them ns lunch rooms In some cases, nnd return to their work will out even the washing «*f their hands. Few of the plants supply running water and towels In the rooms and hence the men, when their hands he- eoine soiled. Just rub them .•rr mi th**lr aprons or trousers. Inspectors Don't Inspect. I noticed In today’s paper that the beef trust was attempting to answer the charges made against It by declar ing that ItH system of Inspection w perfect and that every pound of meat that leaves their shops Is properly In spected. It is but another attempt to throw dust In the eyes of the public. It Is so commonly known In the yards that In spectors “do not Inspect,“■ that when we ask tho men at work In the killing beds various questions about Inspec tion methods they scoff at our ignor ance. - „ zz Thoy laughed at the very Idea of rigid Inspection. Inspection to them ZB a Joke. The inspecting was done at the otAce of the companies and not In the Aeld. BERRY MAY SUCCEED ADMIRAL HARRII WILL PROBABLY BE YRANSFER RED TO NORFOLK NAVY YARD8.

Governor Northen said: "None of the committee knew what we would pay Dr. Torrey and Mr. Alex ander until the meeting waa drawing to a close. Having made this remark and the amount paid them hevlng been made public, aren’t some of you heart ily ashamed of yourselves for tht way yon have been talking? How very, very wicked you have been! Why, The Tamp* Tribune had a publication to the effect that Torrey waa demanding 31.900 per week, and would leava If he did not get It, and this alleged fact was telegraphed all over the coun try.
