Investigating the Beef Trade.

~s~>e
ST. LOUIS, Nov. 21.-The second days
session of the senate cattle investigating
committee opened with large attend
ance, including over one hundred butch
ers who have been subpenaed to give tes-
timony. Senator West presided. The
evidence which it is proposed to offer the
commission, will, it is said, prove con-
clusively that the Big Four has monopoly
of the beef trade; that through it the les
ser butchersare bting crowded tc the wall
that the Big Four have an understanding
with the railroads by which they vir-3
tually control rates to the injury of the
general public; that they have dcprcci-
ated the value OF range cattle in order TO
keep up the price of beef. and that leg;s-
la.ion is imperativeiy needed looking 10

Testing Iowa's Freight ,rariff.

DuBuouE, To-, Nov. 24-The Dubuque
Jobbers and Manufacturers union, at its
meeting this afternoon, took decisive
steps toward occurring the enforcement of
the freight tariff prescribed for the Illi-
nois Central, Milwaukee and st. Paul and
Chicago, ST. Paul and Kaiisas City roaas
by the Iowa railroad commission. The
shippers resolved each To prepay charges
on five shipments to Iowa points
over each of the three roads.
This will make 100 cases against each
corporation. The 300 bills will then be
forwarded to the railroad commissioners,
who are by law compelled to enter suits
to recover the penalties The violation
of the schedule is On oEense punishable
in each instance by fine of $4,000, and
the complainant is entitled TO recover
from the offender three times the amount
of the excess.
The decision of the Iowa railroad com
mission in the complaint of the Dubuque
shippers was received here .eday. The
commission sustained the shippers in
tfieir esidence of being Disseminated
against, and while the commissioners aie
powerless to grant relief again5t Interstate
determinations, they recommend re
duction of the present high local rates.
The commissioners are Of opinion that
the charge of conspiracy is not sustained.

BHlTlsH ROUSE or COMMONS
The Members Indulge In Debate
nm tho AehbOrrpc act

SsA AhAo SAonOouAhC &AGAs =
LONDON, Nov. 21.-On motion Of Mr..
Smith, tho government leader in the
house of commons, last evening. the rule
feduifing an adjournment at midnight
was suspended iu order that the debate
on the land purchase bill, extending the
1pesation Of the Ashborrne act, should
proceed until a division was reached.
MIR. John Dillon said he thought the
time had come to take broad view of
the Ashbourne act and show the British
taxpayer what advances might be asked
and the nature of the security for them
He hoped the debate had resulted in wax
ing up the taxpayers to ,he imminence of
the danger of finding themselves commit
ted to q scheme of landlord pur-
chase without due guarantees. 1t
was astoutdtdg to hear the Tories speak
ant proprietary, at the same time charg-
ing the peasants with trying to frus,rate
the measure which was directed to that
END. Among the first principles of the
league stood the peasant proprietary
The league aimed at procuring such an
alteration In the law as would enable
every occupier of the land to become an
owner. He said tbat he had formerly
spoken in favor of the Ashbourne act,
but it was when no coercion existed
With coercion, the act was assisting the
landlords to raise the price Of land while
1t was backing up the combinations of
the tenants. He must warn the English
people that the day might come when the
national program would include the re-
pndiation nt inabjlites bndcrthe act. This
position has been forced upon the Irish
! pevpiv ai the i. p0ili. Of the bayonet.
Hear, hear." Mr.. Goschen had tried
to show that there was adequate security
for advances because the terms of pur-
chase included both the landlords and
the tenants interests. The truth was
that in hundreds of cases the land com
mission had fepofted that lie tandlstds'
and the tenants interests together would
not afford sufficient security for the price
at whia'. it was proposed to purchase.
Hear, hear. 1t was absurd to say
that the existence of arrears was not
used to raise the price of land, and it was
eqaally iintrue TO deny that coercion
tended to raise the price by crushing
the power of the tenants to com
| bine. The government was try
ing to reduce the tenants to the unpro,
tected position held by them in 1870.
Such g cn',rae was cruel! ,dastardly,
tiiean. 1t might intiict more misery upon
the people; but they were welded to lib
erty, and were prepared 10 make sacri-
| fces to achieve it. Cheers.
Lord George Hamilton CONSERVATIVE
assailed the Parnellites as opposing the
bill because they were conscious that IL
would enable The people to forsake the
league. The landlords yoke might be
heavy, but it was nothing compared with
the tyranny Of the league.
Mr. Gladstone's amendment was re-
icctGd-3BD to s4B. The notion to intro
duce the bill was agreed to.

LONDON, Nov. 2s.-In the Parnell

Haqyi5 tca,it'cd Ia numerous outrages
having been committed at Castlc island,
County Kerry. Sir Charles Russell, cou1i-
sci for the Parnellites, objected to this
evidence of the ground that it concerned
of the witness. Judge Hannen said he
would admit the reports made by the
cross examination the witness stated
he believed the farmers and their sons
had initiated the outrage, as it was a fact
that neatly all the pe:soDs who were mur-
tleretl were either landlords or balliffs.

Allen Larkin and o Br:efi memorial meet
ing, and in chasing the Irish Home Rule
element as in the same boat with the an

hardly calculated to bring about that
harmony of feeling between the British

which some people have been
working. Prominent Irishmen are

pccially at the adoption of the resolution

British Americans will attempt to pack

by Charles f. Grinnel, master in

which had nothing to do with the inves

A Pacific Gable Conference.

LONDON, Nov. GA largely attended
conference was held here today with the
Earl Of Winchelsea in the chair for the
purpose of considering the question Of a
Pacific cable. Representatives were
present from the leading commcr-
cial and shipping houses Of this
city, Western Canada and Australia. In
his speech the noble earl took the ground
that the cable would be benefit to COM
merce during peace, a safeguard to the
empire during war, and urged that the
government should take steps to secure
the necessary soundings without delay.
He announced that colonial guarantees of
$4,000 per year had been secured,
and said that the completion of
of the surveys alone were needed to
enable the project to proceed. Reso-
Iutions in accord with the speech were
adopted and an executive committee ap-

expert in return that those who do make
such experiments, from seed that | give
them, will send me samples It the beets
that they grow, and the so IN which
they are grown, for the purpose OF analy-
ala. It must be remem bered that the
large beets are not the best for making
sugar. If the soil be very rich the beets
should not be planted more than four
inches apart in rows. II the soil be OF
good quality the beets should be SIX
inches apart In rows, and eight inches
apart if the soil be not SO good. The
rows should always be fourteen inches
apart from one another.
A factory will cost about 1925 900, but,
for the first one, some OF the machinery
must be imported from Germany. Sub
gequently I anticipate no trouble in It's
being manufactured in this country. A
site of from thirty to forty acres is neces-
sary wherever each factory is erected, SO
as to give ample room for the large
quantity of machinery and buildings,
also for the prompt handling of the
great number of wagons that will be de-
Iivering beets at the same time, SO that
the wagons may not be delayed and the
work of the farmers impeded.,
1t is impossible yet to determine
where factories should be located l
have received invitations from all sec
tons of California, Oregon and Washing
ton Territory, to visit different localities,
and I will endeavor to do so as quickly
as possible. From the foregoing re-
marks, however, you will be able to
form an idea of what is essential TO the
erection of a factory Such information
as have indicated, if forwarded to me
in conjunction with samples of soils and
beets, will materially assist me in locat-
ins the sites for future factories. am,
