The oyster packing industry in An

to the inability of the packers to secure
competent shuckers. The men who for

STATE PRINTING CONTRACT.
Sixteen Bids Opened For Legislative

At S7.8OO.0O.

Sixteen bids were received and opened
today at II o'clock, noon, in the Court
OF Appeals room by J. Frank Turner.
Clerk of the Court, in the presence of the
bidders, TO do the State legislative print
ing for the coming session OF the General
Assembly. A bond accompanied each
bid for the faithful performance OF the
contract. The highest bid was sac. .oco.
and the lowest bid was by King Bros,
OF Baltimore. for s.. 500. to whom the
contract was awarded. The bids and
bidders were as follows

Clerk of the Court Turner, in announc-
ing the bids, said that King Bros, OF
Baltimore, being the lowest bidders, they
we're awarded the contract. Two years
ago the contract was awarded to w. ]. {.
Dulany Company, of Baltimore, at $685.
600, which was considered a fair bid.
The work cannot be done for the bid
offered. and it has been demonstrated by
practical printers of experience in the
work, that the legislative printing cannot
be done at cost less than SI2, 600 to
SIS 900. The Legislature appropriates
$4,000 for the legislative printing. and
the only hope OF the low bidder is in
making it up in extras, which is very
risky thing. King Bros. have taken the
contract before at about the same figures,
and managed to squeeze out the full ap-
prapriation--SIS.ooo and more. The
law is very defective one and should
be repealed.

Minnesota Beat Nebraska.

Minneapolis, Oct. 12-Ten thousand
enthusiastic s%tundents shouted them
selves hoarse at the game between
Minnesota and Nebraska played on
Northrop field this afternoon. Min
nesota defeated the corn huskers 10
to 0, but in their defeat the sturdy
players from Nebraska find no dis
grace. for though ou~tclassed, they
fought the Minnesota giants until the
call OF time. Minnesota was on the
offensive during the entire afternoon
and not once was the maroon and gold
goal in danger. Nebraska was strong
on the defensive. but the line was
not strong enough to hold against the
heavy mass plays used by the Mime
sofa players. Rogers, the protested
player, was in the game.

sw|NDLED THE FARMERS

Chicago, Oct. PA young man
representing himself to be a member
OF the South Water street commits.
sion firm of Watson & Co., succeeded
in swindling Michigan farmers out of
thousands of dollars worth of produce
and fruits last week. Armed with
stencils bearing the name of that com
mission firm and pretending to be
George ]. Watson, ST., of the firm, he
bought fruit, shipped it to Chicago on
the City of Milwaukee, sold it and dis
appeared. Checks with which he paid
for fruit turned out to be worthless.
When the fruit arrived at Chicago
the fictitious Watson went to the
firm of Watson & Co., and sold the en-
tire consignment to them and was
paid in cash. That is the last seen of
him. Now the Michigan banks are
looking to the farmers for the pay
ment of the checks for which they
are liable.

this time, however, will perhaps :
more studied and carry NOR .yeight
than on either of the pr o u occas.
ions.
Since the press of the country I'm.
doubtedly represents public sentiment
more accurately than any other agen-
cy, it being in touch with all classes
at all times, the Tribune has sought
to obtain from the most influential
editors throughout the country a sober
expression of opinion on three of the
Roosevelt administration will have to
deal-the trusts, steamship subsidies,
and reciprocity.
Trusts leading all three questions
in popular interest, this message was
the first sent to the newspaper edit
ors in the north, south, east and west:
What, in your opinion, is the best
method to deal with the trust ques-
ton? Is the following general sug-
gestion from President R~ooseyelt's
Minneapolis speech is a good one;
Yet, more and more it is evident
that the state, and if necessary the
nation, has got to possess right of
supervision and control as regards
the great corporations, which are it's
creatures, particularly as regards the
great business combinations, which
derive a portion of their Importance
from the existence of some monopo-
listic ~tendency?'"
Twenty-Five replies were received,
nineteen from editors of republican
papers, four from editors of papers
of independent policy and two from
heads of democratic organs. Almost
without an exception were President
Roosevelt's views indorsed; practical
ly all agreed upon the necessity of
some action looking to a restriction Of
monopolistic combinations, though
the mean of attaining this end were
somewhat diverse. Government con-
troll was generally favored.

ATTORNEY GENERAL REPORTS
REGARDING PACIFIC CABLE
PP0|NTMENTSCONSIDERED
President Reiterates His Policy Re-
garding Office Holding in
the South.

Washington, Oct. 11-Attorney Gen
eral Knox made a verbal report to
the president and cabinet today re-
garding the result of the investiga-
lions into the Pacific Cable question.
His conclusion was that under the
law of 1866 any domestic company
could land a cable upon the shores IF
the United States or it's possessions.
The president and cabinet were con
WINGED by the verbal report that no
executive action is called for at this
time. The president will go over the
subject more in detail with the attor-
ney general tomorrow and will re-
view the whole question in his mes
sage to congress-.
under which the Postal Telegraph
company claimed it had the power to
land a cable at Havana, but the claim
was disregarded at the time by the
secretary Of war. Five members of
the cabinet, Secretary Long, Secretary
Hitchcock, Secretary Wilson, Attor-
ney General Knox and Postmaster
General Smith were present at to-
days meeting which was devoted
largely to the consideration of ap-
pointments under the different de-
partments. The question of southern
appointments generally came up again
and the president reiterated his pol
icy of appointing republicans if suit
able applicants could be found and
il not Of appointing gold democrats.
His policy in this respect meets the
approval of the cabinet. The ap-
pointment of General Clayton to be
collector of internal revenue of South
Carolina was considered in this con-
.nection.
