It is planned to consoli- date the houses of Armour & Co., Swift & Co., Nelson Morris & Co. and the Hammond Dressed Beef compa- ny, which are known as the Big Four, but it has not yet been determined as to whether or not Schwarzschild & Sulzberger will go into the com- bination. The five interests would make the combination complete. The combination of the “Big Four” which is under discussion would not only make a combination doing a far larger business per annum than the United States Steel corporation, but also do away with all the trov- blesome questions which have recent- ly been raised under the laws against pooling and pooling combinations. There is no law as yet against a New Jersey corporation buying out all the beef packers and distributors of dressed beef in the United States, and the business is close and requires so much capital for so sivall a margin of profit as to make it scarcely possi- ble for any investment of rival capi tal to be contemplated for many IN NEED OF FUND Catholic University Compelled to Exercise Strictest Economy. . |. 2 | It Is Said That the Institution at | Washington ot Received Measure of Support from Arch- bishops That Was Expected.

The Catholic university is the only pontifieal foundation in the United States, It holds its charter direct from the pope, and it was designed to become a seat of learning, atfracting to it the scholarship and culture of the continent. If the university is as- sisted promptly by the Catholic hier- archy it may be able to weather the storm, but if the apathy continues it is sorrowfully admitted that the in- stitution is likely to share the fate of the Catholic University of Ireland which gradually decayed through want of sustenance. At present the Washington institution enjoys an en- dowment of $2.500.000, but all of this except about $1,000,000 is sunk in the plant, and the interest on the invest- ed funds is not sufficient to meet cur- rent expenses, The university is governed by a board of tru ich originalky was designed te ist of four archbish- ops, four bishops, four priests and four laymen, with the archbishop of Ralti- more as its chancellor. As amatterof fact, every vacaney occurring among the priests or laymen has been filled by a bishop or archbishop, and this has prejudiced the great mass of its supporters. Racial troubles have also added to its difficulties. The Germans were alienated during the struggle concerning Mgr. Schroeder, and the Trish element were offended last year because of the management of the endowment of $50,000 subscribed for the chair of Gaelic. in| ANegetable Preparatio: similating the Food and Reg wla- Ling the Stomachs and Boweis of Promotes Digestion, Cheerful- |! ness and Rest.Contains neither Morphine nor Mineral.

Rhoda Vanpelt, widow, 77 years old, was killed by lightning at 1:30 o'clock this morning. She had arisen and stepped into another room, when a bolt of lightning entered the chim- ney, filled the house with soot and tore away part of the roof and ceil- ing. Mrs. Vanpelt’s little grand- daughter, Lulu Connelly, was the only person with her in the house, and the child ran out to the neigh bors, telling them uw lamp had ex- ploded and killed her grandma. The bed on which the child was sleeping was set on fire. Three houses have been damaged by lightning in the last two days, and rains accompany- ing successive storms have caused great damage to the wheat in this county which, up to the end of last week, was the best average ever known here. s “POLLY TO LONGER DIVIDE.” “With this substantial unity which exists upon these and other funda- mental principles « f Democratic faith, towhich I need not refer, we may safely appeal to the people; and in view of that satisfactory situation it would be fully to longer divide upon abstract or unreasonable questions Let us not seek to cross any uncer- tain bridges until we reach them.” Mr. Hill concluded his speeeh with a welcome to Democrats from other stutes, saying: ‘The Democracy of this state welcomes thedistinguished| | "Son tat oat bougt citizen of New Jersey, the only living Signature of ex-President of the United States, capital of $25,060,000, and must turn its capital eight times a year through a gross business of $200,- 000,000 per annum in order to earn au ordinary dividend. It is figured that it does not make an average profit of 2 cents on the dollar of the business that it handles, but under consolidation of duplicate branch distributing offices there might be 2 cents saved and larger dividends made upon a capital of $100,000,000 or $200,000,000 than has ever yet been made from the beef packing industry. This consolidation is the real cause for the advance in Swift & Co. shares in Boston from .02 to 110 recently, while the United States authorities have been striking at the legal exist. euce of the packing business, and while the newspaper campaign against the consumption of meat has cut down the cattle business of the country by from 20 to 25 per cent. It is said that the proposed consol- idation of the beef packing interests is not a certuinty because of the re- fusal of the Swift company to enter the combination.
