PACKERS TO SUBMIT TO Rule
EnJoInEng Them From Continuing 40
Trust-Wili File Demurrer.
Government Acts.

Chicago, May 12.-With the full ap-
prevail of Attorney General p @.
Knox, representing the national gov
eminent, District Attorney S. @.
Bethea Saturday evening filed with
the clerk of the federal circuit court
here bill for an injunction, sweep
ing in character, designed to destroy
the alleged giant conspiracy to IL
legally control the meat trade of the
United States. The original of the
bill was recorded the moment filed.
At the same time District Attorney
Bethea served notice that at p. M,
May 20, he will appear before Federal
Judge Grosscup and ask for a tempo
rary injunction against the packers
and their representatives under the
Sherman national antitrust law. He
will be assisted by Attorneys c. B.
Morrison and Oliver Pagin from his
ONCE, and probably by Special Coun-
ell w. A. Day.
5 The defendants, according to one
Of their representatives, will submit
to an entry of an order enjOining
them from the acts complained Of in
the bill, and will promise to refrain
from further alleged violations Of the
law until the time of the next hear
ing. Before the latter date they will
have filed a demurrer, in which the
insuf1ciency of the governments petit
ton will be alleged. This demurrer,
it Is said, will raise an important
point under the interstate commerce
regulations, probably to the effect
that the shipping Of meats to ones
own agent in another state under a
certain agreement is not interstate
commerce. In the e. It that the de-
murrer shall he ov ruled the pack
ers will still have the privilege Of
filing an answer, which will necessi
tate a further hearing n the merits
OF the governments ch c2s If, On
the other hand, the demulI er shall be
sustained, the federal attorney can
file an amended bill.
The petition charges conspiracy
unlawful combination, blacklisting
illegal carriage charges. an illegal
credit agreement, creating false mar
ket prices, illegally depi essing the
market and accepting railway re
bates.
The bill of complaint is against
Swift & Co., the Cudahy Packing com
pany, the Hammond Packing com.
pany, Armour & Co., the Armour
Packing company, the G. H. Ham.
mond company, Schwarzschild &
Sulzberger, Nelson, Morris & Co. and
the individuals composing the corpor.
ations and Trims.

500, 900 FOR THE DISTRESSED
Bill Passed Senate saturday-May
Pass House Today--Warships
Ordered to Martinique.

Washington, May 12.-The cruiser
Cincinnati was ordered Saturday to
proceed to Martinique without delay,
investigate and report upon the situa-
ton and extend aid to the survivors.
The ocean tug Potomac was probably
on her way Saturday from the naval
station at San Juan. The training
ship Dixie was ordered to prepare for
sea and she will be sent to Fort de
France, should additional aid be re-
quired.
The action of the administration
was Endorsed and supplemented Sat
urday by the senate, which passed a
bill Offered by Mr. Fairbanks, appro-
priating 100000 for the relief of the
distressed at Martinique. This bill
would have gone through the house
with the same impressive promptness
as in the senate had it not been for
the objection of Representative Oscar
w. Underwood, of Alabama. Though
sufficient official and unofficial infor-
nation had been received showing
the awfulness of the catastrophe, Mr..
Underwood expressed the opinion that
congress should await the receipt of
official Details" and it will not now
be possible for the house to act until
today, when the measure will be
taken up and passed.
The president is taking a special in
terest in the calamity, but the state
department was unable to furnish
him with any information. Consul
Ayme, at Guadeloupe, suggested Fri
day that he be permitted to proceed
to Martinique, and Secretary Hay
cabled him permission Saturday
morning. He is now on his way, hav-
ing sailed on the French man-of-war
Suchet, which is carrying supplies to
the destitute of the devastated island
The department also has made in
quiries of consuls at other points in
the West Indies.
Washington, May 1.-THE state
department received cablegram yes
terday from United States Consul
Ayme at Gaudeloupe, stating that he
would leave for Martinique last night
The state department cabled Consul
Ayme Saturday to proceed at once
to Martinique and report upon the
situation there, but it is thought at
the department that it's instructions
had not yet reached him, and that,
realizing the need of prompt action,
he has gone to Martinique Of his own
volition.

The high price of beef Is said

The high price of beef Is said to
be due to the high cost of making
beef on account of the high price
of corn made scarce and high by

wonder has been as to why the
scarcity has been so lo1g delayed,
If the above Is correct.

The Electric Line.

One of the modern improvements
soon to be carried out in this section,
and one which will be of the greatest
benefit to: Boone, Newton and Marion
county mining camps, is the Electric
Railway line, projected by Hon. John
]. Geeghan, of Toledo, O. This line
is to start from Dodd City in Marion
county, come by the way of Harrison,
out to Sulphur Mountain, which has
been purchased with a view of CON
vertirg into health resort, thence on
to Jasper in Newton county.
The Importance of this line to the
country through which it passes, can
hardly be estimated, as it will furnish
an outlet for many of the richest
rniues and prospects, furnish trans
portation for lumber and farm prod
ttcts, and open up for development a
magnificent scope of country. We
are pleased to notice evidences of inn
provements of this description, and
feel safe in saying this road will,
when completed, be one of the best
patronized short lines in the country
This city has granted a franchise to
the company, which includes a street
car line in Harrison. The work is tc
be commenced within ten months.
