in exceedingly troublous times. There
is dissatisfaction among his people. The
Orleanists are active and there is also
a considerable faction whose object is
the overthrow of the throne and the dec
laration of a republic. In addition, Gen.
Valeriano Weyler, the former captain
general of Cuba, into whose hands has
been given much power, has, by his Bou-
langist methods, alenated a considerable
class of citizens who are loyal to the
reigning family bur not in accord with its
officers. The training of the King has
been that of soldier rather than
ruler. His early delicate health has been
the reason for as much outdoor life as
possible and as q result his young man
hood finds him physically quite the equal
of other boys Of his age. He is not en-
tirely strange TO the arts of statescraft.
His tutors, all of whom have been able
men, have trained him as much as posi-
Bile in the ways of rulers. The yonng
Kings favorite diversion is horseback
riding, and he MAJ be seen any day rid
ing about the city of Madrid, accompan-
led by an aide-de-camp.

TRUST In LAWS GRIP.
MEAT BARONS CHARGED WITH
VIOLATING SHERMAN ACT.
Governme Mt Attorneys AIlege the Com
bine Effected a Pact to Fix Prices
''Big Six" Corporations of Chicago
and Elsewhere Defendants.


Six violations of the Sherman antitrust
law are alleged against Chicago pack
ers in a plea for a temporary Injunction
filed Saturday in the United States Gir-
cult Court at Chicago by United States
District Attorney Sol III. Bethea. The
bill asks that the packing companies and
their officers be restrained from further
practice of the violation of law and
urges that they be compelled to bring
their books into court that full and com
prehensive investigation of their business
may be made. In addition to fling the
bill of specifications against the packers
District Attorney Bethea has announced
that he viii make 4 motion for a tenn
porary injunction against the various
corporations in the trust.
The allegations are much the same
that have been made unoficially from
time to time. Truth of three has been
admitted by the packers, who assert they
have been justified by United States and
State courts.
The most important fact set up by the
government is that the packing Trims
named as defendants in the bin have
from time to time sent representatives
to meetings at which prices have been
fixed. This charge is made in the eighth
section of the bill. The accusation is
that the meetings have been attended by
representatives of all the companies and
have been held at various intervals. In
addition to fixing and regulating prices
the men who attended the meeting are
alleged to have fixed penalties for viola
tons of their agreement and to have
agreed to the "blacklisting" of retail
dealers who were posted as delinquents.
The gist of the six points made in the
governments complaint follows:
That the packing firms, through their
representatives, held meetings at which
meat prices have been fixed
Wausau pilot. [volume] (Wausau, Wis.) 1896-1940, 1902-05-20

That they have instructed their agents
in various stock markets to refrain from
bidding against each other, thus reducing
buying rates.
That they have instructed their agents
to bid up prices in order to induce stock
raisers to make large shipments and
have then lowered the prices on delivery,
obtaining cattle at unreasonable prices.
That they have entered into an agree
ment to charge uniform prices for the
delivery of goods, thus increasing cart
age" prices and putting up the prices of
meat.
That they have entered into agreements
with railroad companies by which they
received rebates and special privileges
in violation of the interstate commerce
laws.
That they have entered into a conspir-
acy with railroads and their representa-
tives to obtain a monopoly of the cattle
markets.
The last two charges affect the rail-
roads. but they are not made defendants
in the bill, as the proof of the charges
must depend upon evidence that their oti-
GERS can give.
Each and every one of the charges &c
alleged to be a violation of the Sherman
antitrust law of July 2, 1890. it is said
in the bill that the packers viii continue
their business operations As heretofore
until restrained from doing so by an in
junction.
The bill names as defendants the pack
ing firms that form what is known as the
'big six" In addition to naming the
companies the bill designates twenty-four
of their officers and directors. The cor
porations named in the bill as defendants
are:
Swift & Co., Of Illinois.
The Cudahy Packing Company, of
Illinois.
The Hammond Packing Company, of
Illinois
Armour & Co.. of Illinois.
The Armour Packing Company, of New
Jersey.
The G. H. HAM md Company, of
Michigan.
Sehwarzs child & Sulzberger Company,
of New York
Nelson Morris, Edward Morris and Ira
y. Morris. copartners as Nelson Morris
& CO.. of Illinois.
In the preface Of the bill it is stated
that all these firms and corporations are
engaged in the buying. selling and ss;T-
ments of beef and that they control 90
per cent Of the trade. having bought end
sold in the last year 100000 cattle,
The bill was finally prepared in Wash
ington by Attorney General Philander G.
Knox and Special Assistant Attorney
General W. A. Day.
