WHERE MILES HOWL HURTS.
Secretary Wilson Says 1t Will BE n
Long Time Before Packers Re-
gain European Trade.

WASHINGTON, June 6.-"It will be a
long time before the American meat pack
ers recover from the hue and cry over the
canned beef furnished the United States
army" said Secretary Wilson, of the de-
partment of agriculture, yesterday.
After years of unremitting efforts the
packers had at last succeeded in introducing
our canned meats to the European trade,
and there was no country where they
could not be found, and they were in use
in most of the armies. AS soon as the
howl went up that these same packers had
furnished rotten beef to the American
armies. their sales went down to nothing.
and now they have all their trade to build
up again. 1t will be doubly hard this time,
because they will not only have to over
come the original prejudice against Amer
lean meat, but they will have to disprove
in almost every case, to the satisfaction
OF the individual buyer, that there was no
foundation in the charges made against
the meat.
When the truth overtakes the lie they
may be able to restore their goods to IA
vor. but they will have hard time to re-
build their trade. On the whole, however,
the outlook for trade in meats appears to
be very good. Hitherto we have been al
most unable to send live cattle to any Eu-
ropean country because of the restrictions
with which the trade has been surrounded
Their entry was not forbidden by any
country, but in addition to the state regu-
lations there have always been so many
petty municipal and departmental regula-
tions that the expectation of cattle to
these countries has not paid.
Belgium has agreed to admit our cattle
under favorable conditions, and several
other countries are expected to follow her
example. Efforts will be made to have one
examination of the cattle answer state and
municipal requirements, so as to do away
with the numerous examinations and the
multiplicity of fees. Germany, We hear, is
taking more favorable view of our pork,
and We expect to have the restrictions that
have been placed upon its Importation re-
voked to such an extent as to afford us a
good market there for pork and pork prod

MISSOURI CROP REPORT.
Section of the United States
Weather bureau.

COLUMBIA, MO-, June 6.-(Special) The
weekly crop report, issued here to-day by
the Missouri section of the United States
weather bureau, says:
In scme of the southern and western
counties corn has been well cultivated,
considerable having been plowed the third
time, but in many counties the fields are
very weedy, cultivation having been pre-
vented by the frequent rains. Where not
too badly choked by weeds, corn is gener-
ally growing well, but there is much COM
plaint of poor stands, especially in the
central and northern sections. In num-
ber of the northern counties only about
one-half of the crop has yet been planted
Cotton, in the southeastern counties, is
generally growing nicely, though there is
some complaint that the stand is poor and
some fields are very foul There is also
some complaint of lice in portions of Penn
iscot county. Chinchbugs continue very
destructive in wheat and in few counties
the fields are being plowed up. Consider
able rust is also reported in the southern
sections and in some of the northeastern
counties the crop has been injured by the
continued wet weather. In a considerable
number of the southern counties, however,
early wheat promises good yield.
Harvest will commence in the extreme
| southern counties next week.
Oats and flax continue to do well as a
| rule, and oats are nov heading in the
| southern sections. In a few of the north
eastern counties. oats and meadows have
many OF the southern counties meadows
are very weedy. Elsewhere the outlook
| for the hay crop Is good.
Clover cutting is in progress in the
southern sections. but the weather has not
been favorable for curing it.
Gardens and potatoes are growing nicely
| though in some sections they are very
weedy.
Apples are still dropping and the crop is
| much less promising than few weeks
Raspberries are ripening in the extreme

HOW 1T WAS RECEIVED.
Americans Believe 1t Expresses His
Real Views, but His Opponents
Say 1t Is n SubterfuCe,

HAVANA, June 6.-The farewell manifes-
to of General Gomez is the principal topic
of conversation among Americans and Gu
bans of all shades of politics. The Ameri-
cans, for the most part, consider it an
affecting address, expressing the real views
of the old patriot, and also his sincere in
tention to retire from public life. His Gu
ban admirers say the address will rank
among the most famous in history.
His opponents, especially the members of
he has no intention to retire for more than
few weeks, and that his real object is to
gain public sympathy. They say also that
Colonel Carlos Cespedes virtually writes
the greater part of what Gomez issues to
the public, though in this instance, proba-
bly, third was written by Gomez him
self.
General Gomez spent the morning at his
residence attending to business, and he de-
clined to see visitors this afternoon, giving
as an excuse the weakness that followed
he was seen driving, accompanied by an
aide. 1t is not thought probable that he
will leave Havana before the 1st of July.
After visiting San Domingo he expects to
return to Cuba in order to remove the body
of his son. Francisco Gomez, who was kill
ed with General Antonio Maceo. He de-
sires to renter the remains in his native
land.
Many residents of Havana, who are neith-
that. If he lives he will soon wish to re-
sumo his connections with the island; and
they also believe that Cuban sentiment in
the main would favor his being largely in
tereSted in the future Cuban republic, even
If not as its president.

NO 10 O'CLOCK LUNCH.
A Food That Sustains the Body After
Common Food Is Ex-
hnusted.

With many people there comes feel
ing OF faintness and need for food be-
fore the noon hour, is reached. This is
generally because of the use Of white
bread and other non-nourishing articles
of food used for breakfast. 1t is a cause
of comment among those who use the
concentrated food, Grape Nuts. that no
feeling OF hunger is felt until the noon
hour. The facts show forth that the food
body hours after the power OF ordinary
food is exhausted.
A few days trial of Grape-Nuts tells
the tale.

ed members, Clyde Baker and Will
| Wilson, late of the 51st Iowa, held last
Tuesday evening, was one of the So
cial events of the season. The plans
of class and teacher were so well made
and carried out that the usual stiffness
of such affairs was not observable
and the genial hosts spared no time or
pains to make every one feel at home.
Overa hundred guests were invited and
when their happy faces and merry
laughter filled the basement of the
church it was scene one looks upon
with pleasure. The basement was
beautifully decorated with patriotic
colors, while the display of flags was
one to make every young American
thrill with pride that it was the en-
blem of his country and all that he
held dear. The greatest amusement of
the evening was the guessing of the
originals of picture shadows on the
wall. Each was provided with a card
numbered alike with the shadows and
the guessing ranged from Alpha to
Omega. Many other games We're also
provided for the amusement of the
guests. 1t seemed that the class was
omnipresent, for no one was allowed
to grow dull or play wall flower. The
plan Of serving refreshments was
unique as we'll as attractive and prov
ed one of the attractive figures. In
leaving all were embued with the
beautiful principles of manliness,
honor and straight forwardness of the
boys of this class and all joined in
wishing them continued success in
their class and continuation of those
laudable principles that make men
manly, open hearted and true.
