2 THE OMAHA DAILY - e - W m DROP IN THE SALE OF MEAT Jonsumption of Beef Falls Off Thirty-Seven and a Half Per Oent. ADMITTED BY LEADING CHICAGO PACKERS Resolution of People to Eat No M Cuuwes the Heavy Slamp—Mar- ket Sustained by Ex- port Trade. wHICAGO, May 1.—That the consumption of beef has fallen off 373 per cent since the agitation against the packers began was admitted by leading packers seen by a re- porter today. The percentages given av- erage the calculations of the packers seen. The market held steady during the fore- noon, chiefly, it was said, because demand export orders were being filled. One thou- sand beef cattle (not 10,000, as reported) were lef. over from yesterday. Opinions varied as to whetlier trade today would clean up the 6,000 head recelved. One buyer declared that there would be more than 1,000 head left over, while another ex- preased the opinion that the export busi ness would clean up the lot A representative of one of the packing houses sald that the yards have received 5,000 head of cattle today; a year ago the receipts wers 17731 head. Recelpts for April were estimated at approximately 140,- 000 head less than for the same month a year ago. The bill for injunction to be filed against the so-called beef combine Is completed and as Judge Day, the representative of the Department of Justice, probably will leave for the east tomorrow evening, all that remains to be done, it is stated unofficlaily, is to wait for word from Washington to act The attorney general has a copy of the bill as it has been prepared in Chicago and District Attorney Bethea, while authorized to go ahead on his own account and proceed as he may see fit, probably will await the attorney general's order as to the time of filing the bill. Butchers Fear Packe KANSAS CITY, May 1.—E. C. Crow, at- torney general of Missourl, and his assist- ant, §. B, Jeffries, arrived in the city from Jefferson City to get evidence to prove that there is a packing house trust. Mr. Crow did not remain bere long, but went to St. Joseph to talk with retail butchers in that city. Mr. Jeftries had a conference with several retail butchers. Later he said: There is a beef trust operating in Mis- sourl and we can crush it by law if the retail butchers will help the attorney gen- eral and myself to get evidence However, the butchers that I met here today fear the power of lhl‘dmr‘km‘-. and for {hat reason it is very dificult for me to get the evidence needed. ST. JOREPH, Mo., May 1.—Attorney Gen- eral Crow of Missouri, who arrived in St Joseph this morning to investigate the status of the alleged beef trust, has been making a personal canvass of the retail butcher shops today. He says he has gathered much evidence, but declines to enter into a detailed state- ment. The fact that the largest packing houses In the state of Missouri are located in St. Joseph makes this city one of the main points of inquify, and numerous witneses will be summoned from here to attend the hearing at Jefferson City May 6. Evidence Hard to Get. Mr. Jeffries belleved that a butcher's union exists here similar to the organiza- tion of retail butchers in St. Louts, but he oou.1 ind no evidence of such an organ- fzatlon. After much effort Mr. Jeffries persuaded & number of retall butchers to meet him. The conference was held be- hind closed doors and all the butchers asked Mr. Jeffrigs to refuse to make pub- He thelr names. The conference. Was so secret that neither the meeting place nor the names of any of the butchers was flvulged. After the con- terence Mr. Jeffries sald: ““You could not get satisfactory replies from the butchers, After we talked a few minutes all the butchers who were at the conference asked to be excused from testify- ing against the packers. I will have some Kai City butchers In Jefterson City whe: the case comes up Tuesday, but I will be compelled “to ask the supreme court to order them to appear. I have no author- ity to subponea anyone else, but the court will fssue the orders if 1 make the re- auest “The packers' combine seems to be more Powtwul in Kansas City than fa St. Louls or 8t. Uoseph. There is no butchers’ union here and I have reason to belleve the packers have prevented the retall butch- ers from organizing.” Mr, Jeffries started for Jefferson City to- night. No Packers at Conferen EW YORK, May 1.—Ailfred F. Bullowa of this city, chalrman of the republican club committy which was recently ap- pointed to investigate the alleged com- bination of packers, has gone to Washing- ton for a conference with Attorney General Knox. No packers were represented at the con- ference, however. When the committee s mbled for its flaal meeting telegrams were read from J. O. Lym Michael Cudahy, Nelson Morris, J. Ogden Armour and Gustavus Swift expressing the regrets of the senders that they were unable tu attend the conference. The text of these telegrams was mot made public. Chatrman Bullowa and the other members of the committee expressed their surprise when shown a dispateh from Washington in which Attorney General Knox expressed the opinfon that the call for the conterence ‘was unwarranted. Chairman Bullowa sald: Our fdea in inviting the conference Was to secure for them th day in court and pending the determina \lo&n‘ t action which the yernment authorities purpose taking, brinfing about some understanding which will be for the interest -of all concerned. The packers whom we asked to meet the attorney gen- eral with us have declined to take ad- vantage of the opportunity and we will, therefore, now o ahead and co-operate with the legal authorities for the purpose of bringing them to time. Bullowa Talks with Kuox, WASHINGTON, May 1.—Mr. Alfred M. Bullowa, chairman of the committee ap- poluted by the. Republican elub of New York for the purpose of ce-operating with the federal authorities snd with the at- torney gsneral of New York state in the matter of the alleged beef trust, saw At- torney General Kunox today and explained to Mr. Kmex the work done by his commit- tee and the informatien it has obtalped ‘The attorney gemeral invited the commit- tee to send (n any evidence it has collected and sald be would be glad (o receive evi- dente from any private citizen as well, Mr. Bull also has had several eon- ferences with Senator Platt of New York on the subject.

Gifts to Lends to Pollceman In Face, BALTIMORE, May 1.—The game today | between Baltimore and Boston ended in a row, which, but fer the interference of the police, might have resulted seriously for Umpire Sheridan. In the last inning Mr. Sheridan refused to allow McGraw his base after having beem, it was claimed, hit by a pitched ball. The vigorous pro- test offered by the manager of the Balti- more team resulted in his being ordered to the bench, at which the occupants of the | bleachers took exceptions At the conclusion of the game the crowd surged onto the fleld and surrounded the umpire menacingly. One man threw a brick, which went wide of its mark, and | cut the .face of & policeman who was try- Ing to protect Sheridan. He was finally escorted from the grounds without sustain- ing bodily harm. The game was lost to Baltimore through the ineffectiveness of the pitching of Howell in the early innings of the contest. Attendance 2,5600. Score: BASTON.

In the history of mankind education has never been so general.

It means a practical ap- plication of such knowledge as will insure growth of power that shall enable us to draw the best from life. The dissemination of this kind of knowledge seems to be the inevitable work of women's organizations. *“The Interests of this convention then will naturally center around the reports of the committees, where we ghall learn the best methods for the betterment of the sur- roundings of the poor, who are too busy in the struggle for existence to help them- ! selves, for the improvement of industrial conditions, for the epcouragement of good government, and, above all, for better home-making and a more intelligent care and development of children. In short, the best methods of raising. the standard of living, both for ourselves and others, and making us more worthy of this beautiful world in which God has placed us to grow."” Mrs. Lowe Applauded. Mrs. Lowe responded in so graclous. a manner as to call eut reunds of applause.

LOUIS, May 1.—The following state- 8 | ment was given out this evening by Pres- ident David R. Francls of the Loulsiana Purchase Exposition company “The sundry elvll appropriation bill, which passed the house several weeks ago acd ls now gofng through the senate, con- | tains an appropriation of $1,048,000 to pro- vide for a government exhibit, a spectal Indian_exhibit and the additlonal cost of the goverment buflding at the Louistana Purchase exposition. It was deemed advis< able to have the date of the fair definitely t | fixed in that bill, in the event any change from 1903 should be decided upon, “For many months past the fair has vir- tually been postponed for onme year. A decidel majority of ‘the directors prefer 1604, and have fof six months or more.

The executive committee au- | zed me to express it wishes to the effect that a postponement should be or- 1. | dafned by congress. %| “Up to this hour over fifty of the direct- ors have been consulted and without an exception every one favored a postpone- ment. I have therefore replied to Presi- )Hv a | | dent Carter of the national commission to | | that effect, and have asked that our con- { elusions be submitted to congress and ‘to | the president. I think there Is no doubt as to the action congress will take, or ;| that it will be in favor of postponement.” HAVEMEYER ON THE STAND (Continued from First Page.) ) | added that he had himself mide some pur- chases thers, but that he did not consider a |it legitimate to compel him to rep” to questions pertalning to these Interests. “If,” he said, “the committee compels me to give the information, I can of course do 6o, but I do not see what my private interests' have to do with this inquiry.” Capital Is increaved, Here Serator Platt ‘concluded his ques- ¥ | tions and Senator Teller took the witness, bringing out the fact that the capital stqck 5 |of the trust had been Increased in, recent © | years from $75,000,000 to $90,000,000.
