GOVERNMENT AND THE RABBIS Ifinetr Per Cent of 1'ortland'H Fresh. 3Ieat Supply Sow Bear Federal Inspection Stamp Care of Sonic Dairymen. "How may tne public distinguish meat that has passed competent inspection from that which has not?" Is a question that was asked of Dr. E. N. Hutchinson in charge of the local station of the Bureau of Animal Industry. United States Department of Agriculture. In answer ing the question Dr. Hutchinson said: "There are two abattoirs under United States Inspection that supply fresh meat to this market. One is located at Trout dale and Its official number is 13S. The other Is located on the Macadam road and its official number is 213. JMeat from the former is stamped '(U. S. 13S) and from the latter (U. S. 213)', These stamps are in plain letters in a dark blue or purple Ink and they are placed on inner rib surfaces and on cuts known as xlb and loin. "Apart from this inspection by the Tnlted States for the security ot tne m-tcr-state and foreign trade Is another inspection by Jewish rabbis that Is equally efficient. The mark is made by a stamp "bearing symbolical signs well known to the Jews, in the same kind of ink as that used by the Bureau of Animal Industry. These stamps are usually In several places on the outside surface of the fore quarter of beef and mutton and are plain to be seen. . "The Hebrew lace is notably free from tuberculosis, which is to be ascribed mainly to the fact that their church has always maintained the most rigid inspec tion of all meats intended for the use of its members. Were I in a city where the abattoirs or packing-houses were not under Federal supervision. I should most certainly eat no meat that did not have the Jewish or 'kosher stamp upon It. The Jewish rabbis conscientiously refuse to acept and mark as good or "kosher" any animal which Is affected in any way with inflammation of the lungs or of the bowels. Their rejections, however, are not barred from sale in other direc tions. If a rabbi declares an animal bad. It cannot and will not be eaten by his people, but it may always be sold to the Gentiles. "In all abattoirs under the supervision of the Vnited States Department of Ag riculture it is compulsory that all rejected meat shall be rendered Into fertilizer and grease. For the last few years abattoir 13S. located at Troutdale, has been the only one having the government inspec tion. Recently No. 213 applied for and was granted the same inspection, a move on Its part that was rendered necessary by the increasing local demand for in spected meats and its desire to secure greater share In the Interstate trade and supplies for Government posts and vessels. "When the Federal inspection Is once extended to a packing-house no meat of any kind is allowed in that establish ment that comes from animals that were not slaughtered under the direct super vision of the veterinarians of the Bureau of Animal Industry. "Abattolrs 13S and 213 together furnirh about 90 per cent of this city's fresh meat. A little care taken when pur chasing moat to see that the Government stamps are upon the carcass from which the cut is taken will assure the 'purchaser of gt ttlng meat from an animal that was in a perfect state of health at time of slaughter." Dr. Hutchinson was asked how farmers and others doing occasional business in slaughtering food animals could get the hnent of Federal inspection. He suld that the inspection was not extended to establishments doing strictly local busi ness but could be secured by anyone con ducting an inter-state trade in meat and meat products. Individual farmers who would want to have their animals inspect ed woud need bring them to one or other of the abattoirs where this inspection is in force and there the service is per formed free of charge- There are two large dairy farmers near Portland who are so desirous of maintaining perfectly healthy herds-and of securing the earliest possible Information concerning the ex istence of tuberculosis hi their animals that when the usefulness of any animal Is over they take it to a slaughter-house fcaing Federal Inspection where thoy lenew that If unsuspected disease exists it will he found by the Inspector when the vicera of the animal Is removed. "For the public good the names of these dairymen ought to be published," paid Dr. Hutchinson, "for- the action of most of Portland's dairymen during the time that Councilman Mulkcy's milk in spection ordinance was before tho Council was in the opposite direction; that it, to keep an inspector as far away from their respective places as possible. In fact, the Dairymen's Protective Association is credited with saying that if their animals were to be inspected and their dairies conducted according to the sanitary re quirements of that ordinance they would have to -change their methods so radically tnat the price of milk in Portland would be doubled." HOME RULE BOLTERS. 5io Choice for Reconciliation With the "Wilcox Faction. HONOLULU. H. T., July 23. via San Francisco, July 30. The bolters from the Home Rule party, under the leadership of Prince Cupid Kalanlanaole, have "begun a campaign In behalf of the new party they tare formed, the Hul Kuokoa, or non partisan party, by calling a mass meeting for next Thursday evening. A constitu tion has been adopted by the party, and all chance of a reconciliation with the Wilrox faction seems to be at an end. The attitude of ex-Queen Llliuokalani has been much discussed recently. She is said by Hawaiian leaders to have re fused to commit herself to one faction or the other, and to have declared that she will remain out of politics. Some of the political leaders have held consultations with her, however, and It is predicted by many that she will make known her wishes before the day for voting. Such an expression from her would have sreat weight with the native voters. The Republican territorial central com mittee has decided to hold the territorial convention on September 1, in Honolulu. Arthur F. Griffiths, of St. George's School. Newport. R. I., has been chosen president of Oahu College, to succeed Dr. A. M. Smith, resigned. The new presi dent Is expected here in September. The United States . training-ship Mohi can arrived here on the 16th. after mak ing such a long trip that a good deal of uneasiness was experienced about her. She left Yokohama May 26.

WASHINGTON, July 30. Probably the last chance the Navy Department has to 6ecure a coaling or naval stattion In Ha - vana harbor was lost by the action of the Cuban Cabinet yesterday In authoriz ing the lease of the arsenal grounds. This Is the site of the -projected "United States naval station, for which It was admirably adapted by Its position and depth of wa ter. News of the Cuban Cabinet's action has Just reached here. Nothing Is ex pected to be done respecting the acquisi tion of sites for naval or coaling stations elsewhere on the Island until next Winter. WORK ON CYCLE PATHS. Report of J. W. Nelson, "Who Has Charge o Them. J. W. Nelson, who has charge of the bicycle paths In and around the city, made public several reports yesterday concern ing the work that has come under his jurisdiction for the past year. This Is the first time that any reports of this kind have been made, and they were some what in the nature of a surprise when they showed up at the County Court. They are appended 'below ln1 brief form. Mr. Nelson will put a force of five or six men to work this morning on the Fourth-street path, which will extend from Madison street to the Marquam Gulch. This path, which will be similar to those already constructed around town, will cost about 5S00, and will take six weeks to con struct: East Twenty-first Street. To the Honorable County Court of Multno mah County, Oregon: I have the honor, to submit the following re port of the work done In repairing the bicycle path on East Twenty-first street. In the City of Portland. The path was heavily overgrown with weeds and grass, and It required a large amount of work to clear It properly and to clear the ditch adjoining the curb. The amount of work expended on the path Is as fol6ws: Four days and four hours, at ?2 &0 per day. $11; one man four days, at $2, $S: one man four days at $3 33, $13 32; total. $32 32. This path Is In quite good condition, but should be graveled somewhat when wet weather begins. Croshy Street. I have the honor to submit the following re port concerning the repair of the Crosby-street bicycle path in the City of Portland, pursuant to the order of this honorable court: The con dition of the ground at the present time and the expense that would necessarily be in curred in hauling the small amount of gravel necessary to put a top dressing on this path made St necessary not to complete the repairs at the present time. I have therefore caused the path to be raked and leveled and have taken out the stones of undesirable size and left the whole path In smooth, even condition, but later on the path ought to be dressed up with gravel, when some other path Is under construction and a team Is at work on bicycle path construction. If a. team Is hired now. It will have to be for this particular work, and later on, when a team Is constantly at work, the gravel can be hauled at less expense and one of the horses can be used for the roller. In addition to smoothing the path. I con structed a board crosswalk over the north half of Ilolladay avenue, which forms a continua tion of the crosswalk and renders the approach to tho path convenient for the wheelmen. The lumber for this sidewalk I already had on hand from other work. The following is an Itemized statement of the expense Incurred: One man two days at $2 50 a day, $5; one man two days at $2 a day, $4; superintendent two days at $3 33 a day. ?C CG; hauling lum ber, per receipt attached, $1 25; total, ?10 91. Twenty-Second Street. I have the honor to submit the following re port of tbo work done by me, under direction of your honorable court. In constructing and extending bicycle path from the corner of Twenty-second and Everett streets to the cor ner of Twenty-eighth and Thurman streets. In the City of Portland. The work began on the Sth day of May and ended on the day of July, 1002. It Is a solid, dry path, behind a 4x11 wood curb, according to the plan desig nated as C by the City Engineer. The expense of constructing this extension was $1180 OS, distributed as follows: Labor ..-. 5 71S 21 Team hire Dirt and top dressing Rent of wagon Blacksmith work on tools New tools and nails Lumber, per attached list.- 75 20 . 18 45 1 00 0 S5 . 23 52 . 344 25 Total cost $llbG OS Fifteenth Street. I have the honor to submit the- following re port concerning the repair of the bicycle path leading from the corner of Fifteenth and Burn side streets, along Fifteenth and up Everett street to the corner of Twenty-second street, In the City of Portland : When this path was built It was finished with a mixtures of coal cinders and screen ings, but unfortunately the iron screenings were too coarse ancydld not pack properly. The ef fect of this In dry weather was to puncture bicycle tires and make the path somewhat dan gerous. By the direction of your honorable court I caused the path to be carefully raked. The result has been that the surface Is smooth and water-tight and the complaints about punc tures have ceased. The total amount expended In repairing the path as far as Twenty-second street was $57.
