WASHINGTON, June 4. Peace spread Its
pinions over the house of representatives
today, ths ' leader of the rnlnorlty, John
Sharp Williams (Mtns.), being willing' to
call off the forces of opposition now that
the report of the conferees had been made
on the statehood bill.
This being suspension day, a number of
bills, both of Iocs! and. national Interest,
were passed with little or no debate.
- The house being officially notified by the
senate of the death of Senator Arthur
Pue Gorman of Maryland, Mr. Talbott
(Md.) preaented resolutions of condolence
and, after the appointment of seventeen
members to attend the funeral services,
the. house ss a further mark of respect
adjourned until noon tomorrow.
Previous to adjournment It waa unanimously-agreed
that, the first two hours
of tomorrow" shall be given over to bills
under suspension of the rules.
, During the passage of bills under siis
penslon of the rules, the messsge of the
president relating to conditions In the
packing housea was read and referred to
the committee on agriculture.
Black foot Reservation to lie Opeaed.
Under suspension of the rules the house
today passed the bill to survey and allot
ths lands In ths Blackfoot Indian reserva
tion In Montana and to- open the surplus
lands to settlement. This bill was at
teohed to the Indian appropriation bill by
the senate, but the house conferees refused
to retain It on the Indian budget.
At a meeting of the committee on Indian
affairs of the house, the bill wss unani
mously reported and under suspension of
the rules passed by a vote of 164 to IS.
The house committee on Indian affairs
also authorised a favorable report on a
bill allowing settlers on 40,000 seres. In
what Is known as "Pasture No. B" of the
Kiowa reserve In Oklahoma, to purchase
the lands on which they have settled.
Under suspension the house today passed
the '.Senate Joint resolution authorising a
change In the weighing of the malls In
the- fourth section. It gives the postmasr

than'. thirty successive days from Febru

RATK BILL MAY GO BACK
Conference Committee Mar Be Asked
. to Strike Oat Jiew Legislation.. '
WASHINGTON. June .4.-It la expected
that the conference report on the rllrond
rate bill will be 'sent back' to conference ns
a result of injection of new matter In the
bill. Efforts to induce the senate conferees
to ask for the r-?ommlttment of the bill
have been unavailing, .'however." ' '-
They met with the house conferees today
and considered the criticisms. Leaders of
both bodies decided to "stand pat" and
not .to reconsider the report unless It is
sent back onpoints of order.
It Is conceded that there are four changes
in the hill to which points of order might
be sustained. The first, is ; the. Incorpora
tion of-the words "transportation of Jaclll
ties" lnthej provision requiring every com
mon carrier to file with the' commission
copies of all contracts with other common
carriers In relatlorrto any trattlc; "'trans
portation or facilities" affected, by this ant.
In section ,4- 'the-: words "or transporta
tion" were added to the provision authoris
ing the commission to pass upon the rea
sonableness and Justness of "any regula
tions or ' practices whatsoever of such
carrier or carriers affecting -such ra'cs."
Another amendment of the same character
was made to this section.
The fourth amendment subject to a point
of order Is that declaring that the act
shall take effect . sixty days after Its
passase.
The conferees have, held that the pro
visions In relation to lateral or branch lines,
fixing the. salaries, of the secretary and
assistant secretary of the commission and
a number of others to which objection has
been raised, are not subject to points of
order for the reason . thst while they are
new matter they were Inserted In Amend
ments under dispute and are germane to
such amendments. ' .
The pass amendment was considered and
the Indications are that It will be amneded
to exempt railroad employes and tbeir fam
ilies If the bljl is sent back to the con
ference. . ,
A campaign 'has already begun to defeat
the anti-pass amendment. Many telegrams
have been received by members of tbe
house, signed by officers of organisations xt
railway employes reading: ,
i "Please use all means within your power
to stop passage of bill prohibiting the Issue
of paases to railway " employes and their
families."

Strike Leaders Executed.' '
,LO ANGELES, I CaK vJunf 4.-A flls
pstch to the Herafa ftetb Douglas, Aril.,
reports the execution of eight leaders of
the Cananea riots yesterday by Colonel
Kosterlitski. TJfiei rioters were lined up
In front of a atqpa wall, a, -few blocks over
the hills from' Ronquillo and killed by
volley from the rifles of" the rurales un
der the command of Jvostcrlltski, who. It
Is reported, cried out ' tne shots wero
fired: "Viva le Mexico; so perish .oil
traitors.1' Without fear the doomed men
replied as one? marl:" "To b 1 'with the
government; away, with Mexlco."-;
The dispatch urthfr. states that the ar
rival of KoHterlltskl with his troops had
more to do with the quelling of the riot
than the presence of American soldiers on
the scene. It also states that Cananea did
not .burn, and Is not burning. The -pecuniary
loss of .the Cananea Consolidated
Mining company Is estimated at $500,000 and
work will J3e,j-esumed within a week. .
..A dispatch to the,. Times from El Paso,
Tex., says that .renewed trouble broke out
at Cananea last night .between the striking
Mexicans of Colonel W. C. Greene's mines
and the rurales under Colonel Kosterlitski.
J Five rioter -were killed and thirteen In-
Jured. O.ne of the -rurales was shot, . but
nqt seriously Injured. . .
The trouble broke out shortly befora th
arrival of. 200 Mexican soldiers from Her
moslllo, . All of the American women In
the town and many women of the higher
Class . of Mexicans are quartered in the
home of , Colonel .G.reene, which Is under
guard. .
- Kieealloa of Leaders Denied.
DOl'Ql.AS, Arts., Juno 4 A telephone
message direct from the office of Colonel
Greene In -Cananea denies the reports that
the ringleaders In the riot ' were executed
by Colonel Kosterllnski and that Governor
Ysabel had been -placed under arrest for
having brought American volunteers across
the boundary.
- So far as known only three Americans
and sixteen Mexicans were killed during
the disturbance. In addition 'to the Mel
calf ea Burt Bush of Bisbee was killed.
Fifteen soldiers are on the way to Can
anea from the City of Mexico. There was
no disorder yesterday or last night and ths
situation today la peaceful. Colonel Greene
walked to Ma office without a guard thla
morning.- He saya he expects to resume
work at the mines and smelter today. Cap
tain Rynntng and his rangers returned to
Douglas Ut night..
It is apparent that all telegrams and tele
phqne messages from Cananea have been
strictly censored and It Is now believed
here that more persons were killed In the
rlou of Friday apd Saturday than has been,
officially . acknowledged. Persons who ar
rived today " from Cananea aajd that at
least ten Americans were killed, but. no
verification pf this statement is powlble at
present.

' Moralag.
STErBENVIM-E, O., June 4.-Whlle ths
situation In Jefferson county was moat
pacific tonight, despite the riots, there is
fear of trouble and the fear Is general that
the situation will become acute tomorrow
when the troops arrive from Columbus.
At Dlllonvale the strikers are In a tur
bulent mood. It Is reported that they and
their sympathisers have made large pur
chases of rifles, revolvers snd ammunition.
Every attempt la being made by the leaders
of the mine workers to hold the men In
check, but the failure to pay strike benefits,
together with their straightened circum
stances and the outbreak of this morning
have excited the men to a desperate con
dition. The guards of the United States Cosl
company, who - were Involved In the out
break this morning, are tonight entrenched
near Crow Hollow, and persons living In
the vicinity, fearfully expectant of trouble,
are keeping In their homes.
While varioua estimates have been made
of the casualties. It ts Impossible to verify
any reports of deaths, although It Is known
that ten or more were hurt. It la known
that one of the wounded guards who fell
Into the handa of the strikers was taken
to Smlthflnld as a prisoner. The clash Is
the direct outgrowth of the sbuse by the
T'nlted States Coal company's guards of an
Italian union miner from Pittsburg on Sun
day afternoon. Eearly this mqrnlng sixty
eight of the company's guards started to
march across the hills from Plurii Run to
the Bradley mine and at Crow Hollow were
ambushed by a force of 200 or 800 strikers.
In the battle that ensued several hundred
shots were fired, but the strikers' aim was
bad. which accounts for the few casualties.
The guards were forced after twenty
minutes of fighting to retire In disorder to
Plum Run.
Sheriff Voorhees has gone to ths mjnes
and before leaving he telephoned the ad
jutant general at Columbus to be ready
to send troops If needed. '
Matters are quiet today at Plum Run and
Bradley, although there Is much suppressed
excitement.
An engagement between guards and
strikers took place at Glenn's Run min
No. t during the night.
All the men Imported there hsve left,
but strikers and guards got to clashing
In arguments, which led to blows and then
shots.
Nearly seventy-five shots were fired snd
during the battle Superintendent T. . E
Toung of Cleveland, who was at the mine
directing the guard, was Slightly wnunOed.
Indications were that the trouble which
has existed In this region since April 1
would have been settled today at all the
mines but those of the United States Conl
company of Cleveland, but It la feared the
trouble this morning win interfere with
the negotiations. ,
Reports aa to which party fired first are
conflicting. One story says the guards were
ambushed and another that the guards dis
charged their, rtfes in the air first to
frighten the miners. Over 600 shots were
Vaid to have been exchanged and the guards
then' retired on account of a shortage of
ammunition. The wounded were removed
to Plum Run and are now receiving atten
tion from the company physicians. Quiet
prevails "now, but more .trouble 14 appre
hended tonight, as the foreign strikers are
In an ngly mood and the leaders are having
difficulty In controlling them. Sheriff Voor

Ohio to despatch troops to the scene and

OMAHA, June 4. To the Editor of The
Bee: If the man behind the gun in a naval
battle deserves praise for duty well done,
ao does the man who stands on the decks
of the trolley shins, which sail over so
msny spacea fh Omaha. While recruiting
health In a cosy hospital for the past two
months, I have dally made a round trip
of six to twelve miles with them.' I observe
theae young "motormen and conductors are
continually watchful for the safety of all
the people. They have a nerve-wearing Job
and deserve the praise of a grateful public.
They seldom turn sour, but keep sweet
under, most trying circumatancea. Whoever
selects snd employe the motormen and
car conductors of Omaha has my respect
for good Judgment of men.
Hip, hip, hurrsh for the young men who
stand so many hours on the trolley decks.
I have found hospital life pleasant and
beneficial and am new leaving Omaha, with
many pleasarU memories' of kindnesses of
many people. AN OLD MAN.

of which processes It was In ths way of

was always the reply that this meat would

llliatlon would prevent any danger from
Its use. A very considers ble portion of
the meat so handled Is sent out as smoked
products and In the form cf sausages,
which are prepared to be eaten without

The. report says that the radical defect In
the Inspection system la thst It Is con
fined at present by law to passing on the
healthfullness of animals at the tlms of
killing, but that ftie meat that Is used
In sausage and the various forms of
canned products and other prepared meat
foods goes through many processes. In sll
of which there Is possibility of contamina
tion through ur.sanltary handling and fur
ther danger through the use of chemicals.
During all these processes there Is no gov
ernment Inspection, although these prod
ucts when sent put bear a label stating
that they have been passed upon by gov
ernment Inspectors. The report arraign
the sanitary provisions In bu'ldlngs nr
abominable and ssys men and women
plunge their unwashed hands Into the meat
to be converted Into food products. The
report says the burden of protecting the
cleanliness and wholesomeness of the prod
ucts and the health of Ah workers and
Improving the conditions must fa!', upon
the national government.
Department superintendents "seem to
Ignore all considerations, except the ac
count book." and proper care of the prod
ucts and of health and comfort of the em
ployes are impossible) and the consumer
consequently suffers.

spongy wooden floors of the dark work

The whole situation, as we saw It, In

forced to spend their working hours under
conditions that are entirely unnecessary
and unpardonable, and which are a con

but to the health of those who use ths

WADS WORTH MAKES PREDICTIOa''
Chairman el' Hoase Cosnsalttee e
Aarlealtare Talks.
WASHINGTON, June 4 Chairman Wada
wotth of the bouse committee on agricu'"
ture mad this prediction to ttl Associated
Press todsy: k,A meat Inspection law WlU
be enacted which will Insure to the con
sumer meat fit to be eaten." ' '
In commenting on 'the probable effect if
placing. the cost of a compulsory govern
ment Inspection of meat upon' the slaugh
terers and packers. Chairman WadsWojlh
said:
"In my Judgment, . If the cost bf the com
pulsory Inspection, which Is f of . the benefit
of the public heslth. Is to be put upon the
packers snd slsughterers knd. which will
mean a tax of no one knows how much. I
believe the packers snd slaughterers will
simply say: "We will buy all live stork
subject to government Inspection.- This
would In turn throw .the cost of Inspection
back upon the cattle falser and producer
and consumer. r
"Furthermore, In the oplnfon of many
members. If the cost of kispectlon IS thrown
upon the packers It would drive out of
business the thousands of small, Independ
ent slaughterers and thus stilt further con
centrate In the hands of the so-called
beef trust the whole packing business' of
the country." ' '''
The substitute for the feeverldge' amend
ment, which Mr. Wadsworth Is preparing,
places the cost of' the Inspection ' on Hhe
government. Just what ths ' Cost will
amount to Is estimated by members all' (he
way from II, 600.000 a year id' teduO.OOO.
Chairman' Wadsworth' explained further
that when the Inspection .wae. voluntary,
as It Is at present, ha has been in favor of
Its cost being borne by the packers, but
when the government is to make It compul
sory he believes the government should pay
the cost, on the ground thst It Is an under
taking directly for the purpose of protee-
tlon to the public .health. r -.-
