CHICAGO , l"eb. 20 Contracts were drawn up In Chicago > esterday by means of which It Is promised that packers and shippers of perishable food products will , In future , get along without ice. Dr. A. T. Perkins , now a resident of Chicago , has patented a process of keeping meats , fruits ami peilsha- blo products during transportation by the USD of sterilized air. His patents extend to the antipodes. The contract concluded jes- terday was between him and J. M. Smart of Melbourne , manager of the Australian Meat Tranpoitatlon corporation , limited , for the use of the processfjn the seven colonies of Australia. A corporation Is also about to be formed , with headquarters In Chicago , to control the process over the railroad lines of this country and the steamship lines run ning from the ports of North and South America. Dr. Perkins left Chicago > esterday afternoon for New Orleans , where the steril ized air procesi Is to be put In operation , It Is said , on a line of fruit steamers plying from that poll. Upon his return he- will sail for Australia. Mr. Smart of the Aus tralian Meat Kxport companj's corporation Is of the opinion that the new process will enable Australia to ship Its meats to Kurope instead of boiling it down to make tallow , and will \lrtually force the American pro ducers of dressed meats x > ut of the European market. He adds : "Moreover , It will enable us to ship our fruit , which now rots for want of a market , to England at a season when It will command the highest prices , and annihilate the trade which the American sjndlcate has been planning for. We propose to supply the whole of Great Hrltaln with meat and fruit. Six walehouses are now being built In Lon don and Manchester , which will serve as our distributing points. Two of them arc among the largest receiving warehouses In the world. " The fruit syndicate of California is the Interest which Mr. Smart says has. been most concerned about the matter.

The Union Pacific was very imieh mis understood as to Its financial ability for , though It \\ns Insolvent , It had been nblo to piy cveiy bill for operating expenses. The proposition to sell the properties In tun separate parts was not Rood They should bo sold as a whole , and In that way neil Id bring n , much higher prko thin otherwise.

But If It came to a ciuestlon whether the gov ernment would overrate the roads. It would be better , he thought , to surrcnilci all of Ita rights than to make such an attempt. If wo can rid ourselves of tlili' road scandal , ho said , the value of stacks all over the world would appreciate. Mr. Coombs grew Irritated at repeated. ( IiiosllciiB from Mr. Sulzer which ho thought were not couched In proper language , and In quired whether Mr , Suber was attempting to bulldoze him. He tuld ho did1 not think the government should guarantee the bonds ot the road If sold. In executive session today the committee on Pacific railroads a'lopted a resolution offered by Mr. Roatnci , democrat of Louis iana , calling on the atorney general for hla opinion as to whether the government could proceed against the directors of the Union- and Central Pacific toads to recover fraulu- lent Block IssucJ by them and could follow stock and property Into the hands of li no- cent purchasers , and If not , what recourse In his opinion the govo-nmcnt had In the premises.
