DRESSED BEEF INDUSTRY.
Testimony Taken Before the Senatoria
Committee Yesterday

Testimony Taken Before the Senatorial
Committee Yesterday.
CHICAGO, September 3D.. At to. davis
meeting of the Senatorial Committee on
Dressed Beef and Transportation, A. c,
Halliwell, of the Drouers Journal, was ex-
amined. When asked if he thought that
the dressed beef industry was prospering in
Omaha and Kansas City, Halliwell said it
was gaining very rapidly. He thought that
the depressed condition of trade in st.
Louis was not due TO combination which
Disseminated against st. Louis dressed beef
in favor of that shipped from Chicago. He
had heard that three men were in COM
bination of that kind, but did not think it
was for the purpose of diverting trade from
St. Louis, as one of them had extensive
interests in that city. There was plan by
which they received SIS a car rebate on all
meat shipped from Chicago, but the witness
thought that that was discrimination
against Chicago which that rebate did not
overcome
In the afternoon Charles f. Ingersoll was
the first witness. He testified principally
about the range of prices for cattle during
the last ten years.
Joseph Eastburn, stock-yardS commits
sion man, said he saw marked change
in the market of late years While the
SNPB'J Va SUM luS Dulll USI vi
buyers showed no prolportionate increase.
He attributed this TO the dressed beef men.
Albert McCurdy did not think the
dressed beef men manipulated the market.
Fred. J. Rowland, a former chief book
keeper and confidential man for Nels Nor
ris u Co., was asked whether he
knew of any agreement or combination
between Morris, Armour, Swift, and others.
He replied they had made combination
among themselves to sustain the price of
dressed beef. They agreed on certain
prices in certain States, and there were Ger
tain States excluded. That is in those
States they could pay any price they chose.
Mr.. Rowlsnds said the solution OF the
present difficulty was an organization of
cattie-raisers to ship cattle to Europe and
kill them there
Senator Vest said that if the producers
had the hundred million dollars that the
dressed beef men have they might do it,
but the producers have to get their money
as they can.
The absence of prominent dressed beef
shippers, who had been summoned, visibIy
irritated Senator Vest
Finally recess was taken until to-mor-
row, and it is understood that Senator Far
well will use his influence to secure the
attendance of Messrs Armour Morris and
others, without attachments.

SECURING A JURY.
Questions Propounded to the Jurors in
the CrOnin Murder Case.

Questions Propounded to the Jurors in
the Cronin Murder Case.
CHICAGO, September 3d-The Cronin
trial was resumed to-day. Judge McCon-
nell decided 10 allow the following uues-
tions asked by the defense of the talesmen:
First-Have you formed an opinion as to
whether DR.. Cronin was taken to the Carl
son cottage by the horse and buggy en-
gagged by Daniel Coughlin from Dynan, the
liveryman
Second-Have you an opinion as to
whether or not Martin Burke one of the
defendants, was tenant of said Carlson
cottage?
Third-Have you an opinion that the
so-called Clan-na Gael Society was in any
way to blame for the murder of Dr. Cronin?
Fourth-Have you formed an opinion as
to whether the death of Cronin was the re-
suit of a conspiracy?
Fifth-Have you formed an opinion as
TO whether any Of these defendants was a
member of said conspiracy?
The selection of the jury was then re-
sumed.
The afternoon was devoted entirely to
the examination sof talesmen. Four men
were rendered 10 the prosecution by the
defense but two of them were peremp-
torily challenged by the State and excused.
The remaining two men were held over un-
I'll tomorrow, and it IS possible the State
may conclude to accept one or even both of
these gentlemen.
No definite progress, therefore, in the
selection of Jury has been made thus far.
and the prospects are that a full Jury will
not be secured until the peremptory chal-
lenges of both sides are exhausted and
legal disqualifications become only pre-
text for rejecting juror.

HELENA (Mont), September 3d.-The
forest fires which have been raging in the

at Elllston and other places to fight the fire.
They worked all night Saturday and until
1:3O on Sunday morning. They came out
with scorched faces, burned clothing and
oloodshot eyes. Huge cinders were blow
ing IN the air, and the fall of rain and snow

Many bridges have been burned as well
as miners cabins. The snowfall saved
the town of Jay Gould and the Gould Mill
and milling property there
The fire at Ten Miles was a disastrous
one. The timber in that section was fir,
cedar and pine, and was said to be the
finest forest in Montana. Hundreds of
trees We're four feet thick at the trunk.
There was one pile of logs which stood
