NOT DUE TO SCARCITY OF oETTLs
Beef Prices Stay Up, Although 1--we Sleek
Ouatatsens Are E.arer.


WASHINGTON, April q. Secretary
Morton, when asked in regard to tss
press dispatches from Chicago 70 the
effect that his agitation on the subject
Of high prices has led to reduced con.
sumption Of beef and a consequent
break in the markets for live SICK, said
that so far as he had been advised thsrs
had been no break in the prics Of BEST.
He added: IF the supply and de.
mand is to have any influence which Is
being exerted why should the price Of
beef continue high and the price Of OAi.
tie suddenly lower? It is now stated
that Chicago and other Strengthening
points will soon have all the cattle
needed, and the result will be that
prices will begin to tumble, but we see
no indication that the price Of beef will
tumble. Not long since the large packers
were claiming the price Of hides was IN.
remunerative in this country owing to
the competition with hides imported
from other countries, but with the fall.
ing of in the receipts Of cattle the price
OF hides has suddenly been marked I'D.
1t is now plain that the Chicago pack.
ers have more power over the markets
than has generally been supposed. "

Income Tax Arguments.

WASHINGTON, April 25.-The United
States supreme court today, through
Chief Justice Fuller, made the follow
ing order in regard to the petitions for a
rehearing Of the income tax question:
"The consideration Of the two petitions
(the income tax petitiOns) for rehearing
is reserved until Monday, May 6, when
a full bench is expected, and in that
event two counsel on a side viii be
heard at that time"
Although the order does not explicitly
so state, it means that arguments will
be heard, not on the merits of the in.
come tax itself, but on the question
whether or not there shall be q rehear.
ing Of the suits heretofore decided. This
argument, it is expected, will include
the extent to which the rehearing shall
go, that is whether it shall be con-
fined merely to the point on which the
court was evenly divided, the constitu-
tionality of the income tax law as a
whole, Or whether the whole question
shall be reopened and new arguments
made on the question Of whether OF not
rents are exempt from taxation, as to
which there was a clear majority Of the
court against this feature of the tax.

EverY Furnace shut DoEn.

NEWCASTLE, Pa, April 25.-Every
furnace in Newcastle has shut down,
but for how long no one knows. The
men asked the employers to make the
wages of year ago and they gave the
owners "a hours to determine the mat
ter. The latter declined to take the
time, but decided to close at once. The
men refused to coke down the furnaces
and the clerks and owners were obliged
to do the work. The old wages gave
the keepers 1925 per day and they now
receive $i.75. Other hands were paid
proportiOnately. The owners claim
when the old wages were paid iron was
selling at $IS per ton. 1t now sells at

ARDMoRE, I. T., April 21.-Thursday
Ardmore could boast Of being the largest
and most prosperous city in the Indian
Territory. Early Friday morning the
entire business portion of the city was
wiped out by fire and now 100 business
houses, among which were many two
and 3-story bricks, are a smouldering
mass Of ruins. The aggregate loss en-
tailed is yariously estimated at between
$500, 900 and $500, 900, with the latter
figures probably coming near the cor
rect amount The insurance will foot
up to but One-third of the loss. The fire
started at l a. N. in the large livery
barn of Harper & Cecil on Caddo street.
It spread with marvellous rapidity and
within less than an hours time nearly
every business house on that street was
in ruins.

Durrspt In Court.

SAN Francisco. April 25.-There is
little, if any, abatement of interest in
the Durrant case and Judge Conlon' S
police court was crowded the second
day of the preliminary examination
Of Theodore DuTrant for the murder Of
Marian Williams. Durrant appeared a
little more cheerful, He had a good
nights rest and a good breakfast
frightened him up. So far nothing
startling has been brought out by the
examination of the witnesses, although
several things have been brought out
that seem to make the case against the
prisoner stronger.

WHITES LYNCH FIVE NEGROES.
Found Hanging to Limbs Of Trees
Near GneeRVille, Ala,
THREE OF THE FIVE WERE WOMEN.
Charged With the Murder Of Watts Muir
Phy-One Of the Negroes Confessed
the Crime.

ST. LOUIS, April IA special to The
Republic from Greenville. Ala, saws:
Two men and three women were
lynohed near here. The five were aF-
rested near Butler Springs, charged
with the murder Of Watts Murphy, a
young man Of prominence. They were
John Rather, zeb Galley, Martha
Greene, Alice Greene and Mary Deane.
Another negro man who was implicated
made his escape. The murder Of young
Murphy was most brutal One of the
negroes implicated confessed and an ex-
animation Of the place where they
burned the mans body revealed the
sseth, liver and heart, which the re-
ports say, for some unknown reason,
failed to burn. The confession was
made by Rather, who implicated the
others. Butler Springs is 16 miles from
here. A posse of men, who had charge
Of the five prisoners, left there to bring
them to jail here for safekeeping.
About 8 o'clock Sunday morning at
a lonely part of the road the party was
suddenly surrounded by an armed body
Of men who seemed to spring from both
sides Of the road. The posse was coy
cred with Winchesters and under pain
Of instant death was halted. Reports
say there were about 100 men in the at
tacking party, all heavily armed and
cool and brave. They made short work
Of it. Taking the five negroes they tied
their hands and then they were taken
one at a time and were hanged to limbs
Of trees that lined the road. The five
bodies were found hanging there Sun
day morning by church gOers. The
affair has created a great deal Of excite
ment here, but it is claimed there was
no doubt whatever Of the guilt of all of

MEESOPFNLYIN DEFIANCE OFLAW.
The First Prominent Mormon That Has
Been OfhcislIy Charged With Poly
gamy for Some Years.

SALT LAKE. April 28.-John Beck,
the Mormon mining millionaire, will be
arrested on a complaint charging him
with unlawful cohabitation with three
alleged plural wives. The complaint
was sworn to before a United States
commissioner and warrants issued, but
no arrests have been made for the rea.
son that Beck is in Eureka, looking after
his mining interests. The women are
Louis and Bertha Goss, sisters, and
Matilda Goss, a cousin. Bertha is the
youngest Of the two and has a child
about 8 months old. Beck's real wife
died about four months ago, and it is
claimed that he has been living with his
plurals by turns since her demise and
also before.
Being leading Mormon, although
not church official, and very wealthy
man, BeCk's arrest will cause q pro-
found sensation, as he is the first prom
inent Mormon that has been officially
charged with polygany in this city for
several years, it having been the policy
of the present administration to let
polygamism severely alone. AS to
whether or not Beck's arrest is the key
note Of vigorous campaign to be waged
against prominent violators of the Ed
munds- Tucker law it is impossible 70
say, but it is not likely, as under pres
emit conditions such a campaign would
in all probability defeat statehood and
aggravate the present unsettled state Of
affairs in the territory.
SALT LAKE, April 25.-The arrest Of
John Beck, the Mormon millionaire and
mine owner, on a charge of living in
unlawful Capitalization with three wives
has created such a sensation as has not
aroused the people Of this territory since
the days Of 1890. Other arrests on like
charges are to follow if street rumors
are to be relied upon. The prominent
Mormons next booked by rumor for the
dragnet under the Edmunds- Tucker act
are John Henry Smith, president of
Utah's constitutional convention; Heber
j. Grant, one of the u apostles and a
prominent insurance agent and capital
list; Hiram B. Clawson, bishop, and Or.
son +. Whitney, historian, author and
bishop Of the church.
All Of these men are rich, powerful
socially and politically and it is said
that they have been living with two OF
more wives each.
The arrest Of John Beck, to be fol-
lowed as alleged by the arrest of these
prominent members Of the church OF
Latter Day Saints, is believed to be the
first move in a political game which has
for its object the defeat of the equal
suffrage and consequently the constitu.
ton now being framed and statehood.
1t is alleged, and on the best of grounds,
that the insertion of an equal suffrage
plank in the constitution by the over,
whelming Mormon majority is for the
specific purpose Of the gaining of abso.
lutte political control of the new state by
the MormOns through and by the vote
of their women. That this move is ia
be defeated, if possible, by the old
liberal or gentle element is evinced by
the practical fight they are making on
the oft repeated assertion that polygamy
is dead in Utah,
