TIE PACKERS PUT
 ON ANOTHER CENT Advance the Price of Meats in Chicago a Little
 Prosperity
Executive Mansion,

Chicago, November 9-The Chronicle to- morrow will say:
 "A flat increase of 1 cent per pound was put upon beef pork and mutton today by Chicago packers. In one year the additional cent will yield the following sums: Dressed beef s15, 900; dressed pork and pork prod ucts $20,0O0OO0 mutton $4OO0,O 900. Total addi- ton to incomes S39, ,000, 900.
 Retailers of meats were thrown into a panic by the unexpected rise in prices. Many who had carcasses in their coolers declined to buy until they could figure out what they would need at the new rate. In the adjustment of prices to the consumers, choice cuts of beef have gone up as much as cents; pork tenderloin jumped to the same extent and mutton chops went up 8 to 10 cents. The advance to the packers is mere than 10 per cent since before elec- tion. The increase from the retailer to the consumr will average 9 per cent for the waste in carcassses doubles the increase in the cost of the salable portion.
 The packers claim they have been selling dressed meats al a loss for several years In six months the price of meat stuffs has gone up $2.50 per 100 pounds. There has been no corresponding advance in the price of cattle, hogs and sheep.
 Representatives of the packers in charge of the dressed meat department say the ad- vance was justified by the condition of the trade. and it's imposition on the eve after election Is cofncit1ela..

CABINET MEETING.
The President and His Secretaries
 Hold Long Conference.

Washington, November 9.-All the mem- bers of the cabinet except Secretaries Long and Wilson attended the meeting today. They remained in session until nearly ? o'clock and discussed the Chinese situa- tion, and well as matters pertaining to the Philippines and Porto Rico. When the meeting adjourned it was announced that there was nothing to make public.
 Two of the three hours that the session lasted were occupied in a discussion of foreign affairs, necessltated in part by the fact that the President intends exhaustive ly to treat on this subject in his forthcom- ing message to Congress. It is said the present legation guard at Pekin will be maintained and such troops as yet remain to be withdrawn, according to the original programme, will be shipped to Manila. With this addition to the force General Mac Arthur is expected to renew the compaign against the rebellious Filipino with the greatest energy.
 Administration officials here think that as soon as the result of the election be- comes known throughout at Philippines the resistance to authority of the United States will be overcome.

Paris, November 9.-The Chinese yellow book which was distributed in Parlla- ment today, shows that carly in March, M. Delcasse, the French minister of foreign
 affairs, urging combined naval demon- i stration in view Of the agitation n China, | Was opposed by majority of the powers, Lord Salisbury say ying that in view of the uncertainty it preferable to let the situation ripen, pointing out that the gov ernment of the United States had already declared it would not participate in a naval demonstration which Was contrary to its policy.
 M. Jules Cambon, the French ambassa- | dor at Washington, under date of April ,, | replying to NJ. Delcasse's inquiry as to 1 one American vessel with British and Ger l man ships being sent to the Gulf of Pechili, | said the Washington government thought l the growing agitation of the secret socie- l ties justified precautions, which ought to l take the character of joint demonstration | of the powers, as Minister Conser request ed
 to Americans is the telegram which M. D. Delcasse sent to the FreGeh ambassa- dors at Washington end St. Petersburk,
 September 15, as follows:
 The Ambassador the United States
 at my reception yesterday was pleased to
 recall that since the commencement of af- fairs in China, France, Russia and the United States nave acted together in per feet agreement lie believed that this &C., corG would be maintained and that the
 United States will retire from Pekin on the same conditions as France and Russia
 told General Porter that the manifestation
 of this continued accord was calculated to influence the deinitye resolutions 1f the ether powers. Such is the opinion of Gen eral Porter, who believes Japan will be the first to follow the example" The text of M. Deicasse's reply to the Anglo-German agreement October 30 runs thus:
 'Tbe government of the republic has for
 a long time past manifested the desire to see China open to the economic festivity of the whole world. This explains the speedy
 adhesion 1t gave in December last to the
 proposition of America, which was dietat-
 ed by the same preoceupations. The gov

by Democrats in various sections of the State h Breathitt County frauds amount ing to over 4e0 votes in favor Of the Dem ocrats have been discovered. In one of the booths, and the precinct which usually went Republican by a majority of 5S was carried by the Democrats by 30. In an- other precinct the Republican challengers the inspectors were refused admttance. In another precinct the returns showed that only ffty-fye Republicans voted yet there are 1ic who give their names and are willing to make affidavit that they voted the Republican ticket. The Republicans usually cary this precinct by 5D, and yet this year it went Democratic by 150. Nu- nei ous and fragrant frauds have been dis covered in Logan County, frauds that per meated the entire vote. The entire Third District Is permeated with Goebel meth ods. Republican voters who were chal- Ieneed were rot allowed to make affida- wis, and were rejected by the decisions of tne Democratic sheriffs. Democrats challeged by the Republicans were allow ed to vote without making affdavits by the decisions of these same sheriffs. In one precinct in the city of Bowling Green the election officers refused to certify to 179 votes because there was blur on the bal lots. MT. Moss will contest his election In this district, and there is no doubt that it will be given to him.
 Tn many places in the Eighth district Democratic ehallengers were sworn in as deputy sheriffs and wore badges in the booths. In the Seventh district over 400 Republican voters in the city of Lexing- ton were deprived of their votes by the Democratic delay tactics of election while the Flanklin and Owen County returns were added so boldly that it cannot escape the notice of any one acquainted with those counties.
 There are also extensive reports of frauds in Lawrence Rowan, Nicholas and Mason Counties of the Ninth district, with great effort to increase those frauds in the final count. The commissioners of Lawrence County attempted to throw out the vote of the precinct of Charley on a

SALISBURY MAKES A
 SENSATIONAL SPEECH
Remarkable Utterances of the English Premier at
 the Lord Mayors Banquet in London

governed by the Chinese was most dan gerous'
 Relapsing into pessimism, Lord Sails bury admitted that the trend of recent events has almost put end to the hopes of the Russian Emperor and others who took part in the peace conference at The Hague. His extraordinary speech closed with a fervid appeal to the people of Eng land to maintain their defenses In such a condition that i've shall not be exposed to any sudden interruption of the peace upon which our prosperity depends
 "The supreme conditton," exclaimed the premier, lis that no reform, no improve ment is of the slightest value unless se- curlty against external interference Is ob- tained by putting our defenses in such a position that no action may happen beyond our borders that shall make our security doubtful"
 The majority of Lord Salisbury's hearers believed that this warning which was de- livered in his most impressive manner re- ferred to the possibility of French antagon- ism.

MT. Richardson,s Views.

New York, November 9-Among eXpre6- sions Of views by prominent Democrats relative to the future of the party, which are printed in the Journal and Advertiser today, lis that of Representative James D. Richardson of Tennessee. It Is in part as follows:
 "As to Don M. Diekinson's scheme of re- organization, I can say that the party wants all the supporters it can get Every man who believes in Democratic principles is welcomed into the field. But the Demo- cratic party can make no surrender of prin- ciples for expediency's sake. It can make no surrender to the commereialism of the moment. When it does that it ceases to be Democratic. And if 1t veers to catch every favoring breeze it will soon be as far from it's original moorings d the Re- publican party is from it's.
 Seven million voters revere the doctrine of Jefferson and advocate his principles. These men will not abandon their belief to please minority of the party. The major ity rules in a Republic like ours. The ma- jority will continue to rule
 No one can say on what issues the next battle will be fought. The principles of our party are immutable, issues are created by conditions. The Republican party has been invested with solemn trust. It will be held to the strlctest accountability. It has the President and both branches of Con gress. It will make the laws and execute them. Upon it's wisdom and upon the eco homie conditions that develop will the is sues oi the next battle depend.
 "The next Democratic convention will consider all present issues and subjects and frame platform. It will be Dem ocratic, Jeffersonian one, and all true Democrats will stand upon 1t. Those who do not wish to do so can stand on the Re publican platform.
 Undoubtedly the men who call them selves Democrats but who have been Re- publicans during the lasi two National campaigns will not be permitted to define the issues and shape policies for the Dem ocratic party.
 T believe the present organiz; tnion will control. It exists Tn every hamlet town and county in the nation. It is lcl est It will go right ahead pust as Ii has gone during the last four years.
 MT Bryan is undouo.edV at present the natural leader of the people. He las an immense following to whom his sincerity honesty and patriotism are an inspiration" ]"
