Washington, June 28.—An absolute
deadlock on thq meat Inspection
amendment to the: agricultural appro
priation bill was reported by Senator
Proctor to the Semite late yesterday,
after thre sessions* of the conferees
had been held.
' The Vermont senator said that the
house conferees had declined to con
sider, any'compromise oh the subject of
the payment of the cost of Inspection
by the packers.
The senate conferees offered to com
promise, he said, upon a lax of live
cents a head on cattle and three cents
on hogs, sheep end goats, to be col
lected and converted Into the treasury
tbs seme ns any other revenue. He
read the compromise proposition, show
ing that tbs (8,000,000 appropriation
provided by the house would remain In
the bill and the coat of Inspection
Would be paid therefrom. In reply to
A question from Senator Hale, he stated
that the tax would amount to about
ohe-half of the appropriation.
' The third conference of the day-had
been concluded a short time before
Senator Proctor made hie statement. At
the conference he offered the comprn
mlse which was met by the house con
ferees with the argument that It would
be unconstitutional on the ground that
congress has no authority to levy a
direct tax upon chattels.
' In making hie statement, Senator
Proctor seld the conferees had agreed
on practically all Hems, but that the
house conferees had positively re
fused to consider any compromise. He
then related the particulars of Ihe pro
vision regarding the coat , of Inspection
and added that the house conferees
hod absolutely declined to sign the
report unless ’ the house provision
should be accepted letter for letter. He
said the effect of the position taken
by the house would be to cause the
failure of the legislation and the gen
eral arrest of business.

Ilarvle Jordan, In discussing the new

"The manufacture nf paper from th*
fiber nt th* cotton stalk Is one of the
latest and most Interesting Inventions
of th# new century. For many year*
expert Inventors have been busily en
gaged experimenting wah the cotton
stalk, and now It appears from recent
developments that their Inhor* Hnd
expenditures of money nre to be re
warded with signal ami striking suc

tions passed the experimental stage,
but they are rapidly being shaped to be
placed Into practical operation.
How this new enterprise will affect

In th* flrst place, th* practical ef
fect of the manufacture of paper and
alcohol from cotton-stalk fiber will ha
to Increaa* the present value of the
Houth'e cotton crop by about Jiao noo.-

nf the cotton crop and save about 83o.-

save about 875,000,000 yearly to the
cotton growers of tha South About
26 per cent of lha flber treated can
be made Into paper and about 9 per
cent Into alcohol.
The residue, after all by-products
are extracted from the cotton-stalks,

will save to the farmer the ext-nse of
