The committeemen had before them a mass of testimony taken during hearings which began in March and ended yesterday on Representative Borland’s resolution for investigation by the federal trade commission. Rep- resentatives of the cattle producers favored such an inquiry, while the packers opposed it on the ground *‘hat it would be detrimental to their business. Cattlemen argued that the action was necessary to insure rea- sonable meat prices to consumers. The proposed inquiry, if ordered, may be broadened to include all ques- tions affecting the growth, manufac- ture and marketing of meat products and allied industries. VALUE OF CARGO INCREASES 8 TIMES German Sailing Vessel Starts Dis- Charging Nitrate Held Since 1914 —Worth a Million. New York, July 7.—The German sailing ship Indra began to discharge here today a cargo of nitrate from Chile valued at $1,000,000. When she arrived here bringing the cargo, in September 1914, it was worth only $125,000 but the demand for chemical for the manufacture of ex- plosives has greatly increased its price since then. The result is that while lying in this port for nearly two years the value of the cargo has increased $875,000. The Indra was bound from a Chil- ean port to Dunkirk, France, when the European war began. The cap- tain headed for New York on learn- ing that war was declared. Consignees of the cargo began litigation to com- pel him to carry it to Dunkirk but he declined to take his ship to sea, where she might be captured by British or French warships.

MARRIED BY MAIL TO MILITIA MAN Plan of Proxy Was Illegal—Contract is Sent to Soldier on Border. Newark, July 7.—Unable to be mar- ried by proxy because of legal en- tanglements, Miss Maud Ethel Sergent of 60 Peck avenue and Louis Bansem- er, a private with the First Regiment on the Mexican horder, have resorted to the mails. A marriage contract was signed today by Miss Sergent and immediately mailed to Mr. Bansemer, who is-at Douglas, Ariz. That the couple will be legally man | and wife was asserted by Rugene H Meyer, counsel for Miss Sergent: Clerk Frank F. Crissey of the marriage li- | cense bureau, also thought the con- tract would be binding. Miss Ser- gent signed the contract before a notary and witnesses. Now the bride- groom will sign it. The procedure is that of a common law marriage pro- vided by law. The registration of the signed contract acts in a legal sense exactly as does the recording of the marriage license. Bansemer and Miss Sergent have been friends for years. The couple became engaged when the regiment was in camp at Sea Girt preparing for service In Mexico. It was too late then for them to be married by a min- ister and announcement was made that they would be married by proxy. It developed that the marriage under these conditions would not be recog- nized by law, and the mail way was then brought to the rescue. DUNN SEEKS MINOR STARS.
