Jefferson City, Mo. May 6.-At the
 opening of the beef-trust inquiry in division ?, of the state supreme court
 to-day, MT. Hagerman of Kansas City, representing the Armour, Cudahy, Swift, Morris and Hammond interests, filed an objection to the progress of the inquiry. Mr. Hagerman, who was ac-
 conpanied by Alexander New, said
 that he proposed to bring in question
 the validity of the state antitrust
 law. MT. Hagerman said:
 "We represent the concerns which
 Attorney General Crow charges with
 unlawful combination. Our clients on
 our advice are not present. The pro-
 posed proceeding is an unfair one to them, as they have not been allowed to summon witnesses. We wish to pro ceed by an application for a writ of prohibition or certtorari, he contin- ued. We wish to bring the law before the supreme court, to be passed upon as to its constitutionality This pro- eeeding is merely fishing expedition on the part of the attorney general"
 Attorney General E. c. Crow replied, stating that the inquiry had been call ed for the purpose of learning whether the proceedings should be commenced to prevent them from doing business in this state. He said: The attorneys in the absence of the packers, have no 1, L,,,t l,a. courtesies of the court and allow them to cross examine my witnesses"
 Attorney General Crow has received no report of the subpoenaes on the Ar mours or on o. w. Waller of St. Jo- seph, representing Swift x So. Most of the men on whom service was ob- tained are retail dealers of St Joseph, Mo.
 Judge Burgess ruled that the inquiry should proceed and Frank Staudenraus, a St. Joseph retailer, was called as the first witness. He was questioned by Attorney General Crow concerning the coolers maintained in St. Joseph by Morris, Cudahy, Armour and Ham, mond.
 The coolers are near together" said lHc MiLutSS. lHty dO Hut db d itteiil business. but they sell to large custom CTS on the quiet"
 The witness said that the St. Joseph Buchers' union, of which he is presi- dent, was organized for the purpose of retailers from the competi- ton of wholesalers by secret sales.
 In response to numerous questions MT. Staudenraus testified that it was for the packing companies to notify their best customers In ad- vance of raise in price of meats in order to give them the benefit of buy ing before the advance; that the re- bates were paid by packers, and that he had received such rebates from both Armour & Co., and Cudahy x Co.
 John Wood, a St. Joseph retailer, tes- tif1ed that four packing companies con- trolled the beef in St, Joseph MT. | Wood said that the price of meat had | four or five times since Jan lary 1.

PEARL HARBoR DREDGING.

Work on the dredging of the Pearl
Harbor channel is not in so backward
a state as some publications concern
Ing 1t would give the impression, says
the men connected with it. The wealth
er has been very rough since the work
of dredging with the present apparatus
was first undertaken. And the rough
weather has been a great hindrance.
But the experience gained so far has
enabled those in charge to overcome
the difficulties. In one period OF seven
hours work 1900 yards of material was
dredge1 so that 1t is confidently ex-
pectel that with a very short period of
good Teather the entire work can be
accomplished.
