An InsinuatiOn.

1t was a warm Sunday morning in
church. Fans were futtering, hymn
ais Hopping, handkerchiefs mopping
streaming faces, and the minister
thought his audience a little lax in at
tention. Finally he led up to a rebuke
for its lack Of consideration for sacred
and important things. Said he:
People are prone TO attend to the
unimportant things of life"
And he gave few examples TO il
lustrate his idea. Presently he made
his pertinent application.
Now" said he, you are attentive
to your own comfort this morning, TO
the sinful neglect of the holy word.

said dramatically, for you may be

PACKING COMPANY
WILL APPEAL CASE
ONE CONCERN READY TO PAY THE
FINE IMPOSED BY THE LAW
OF STATE OF MISSOURI.
fBY ASSOCIATED PRESS.


Jefferson City, Mo-, June 4-Attorneys
Hagerman and New appeared before the
supreme court this morning and asked the
court to allow the Schwartzchilds and
Sulzberger Packing company to accept the
count in the attorney generals nforma-
ton that the company is operating in this
state without charter from the secretary
of state.
Messrs. Hagerman and New stated that
If the court would accept that the company
would pay the $1,000 fine imposed by law
and at once take out charter and then
this company would be on an equal footing
with the packing companies in the pro-
ceedings against them for violating the
antitrust law.
The court then took recess until 2
p. M, when it will announce whether
it will accept the offer of Schwarzschild &
Sulzbergcr and also fix the date on which
the attorneys for the beef companies must
file their returns and pleadings to the in
formation filed against them.
Attorney New announced that he wished
to enter exceptions to the overruling of
the motion to quash the information.
This was regarded by the court and
the attorney general as the first indication
that the beef trust would carry the case to
the federal court

Wilkesbarre, Pa June 4.-Therc was
much speculation today over the visit
of President Mitchell last night to Scran-
ton, where he met Frank Sargent and
other labor leaders.
Mr.. Mitchell returned to Wilkesbarre
this morning. but all attempts to get him
to talk about the nature Of the conference
were futile. He merely said the confer
ence was social one.
lie said new move of some sort in
which the railroaders may be involved is
among the possibilities of the near fu-
ture.
The entire region was reported quiet at
starting time today.
In only two places in the Wyoming
valley were any signs of demonstration
shown against the men working at the
pumps.
Crowds met each trolley car, as it came
OF the town, and as the men got off the
cars protected by Coal & Iron policemen,
there were boots and yells, but no at
tempts at violence.
At the Exeter mines of the Lehigh
company, West Pittston, small crowd
wanted the men to go into the colieres.
There were many women in the crowd.
Make Few Additions.
Strikers say there were few more
additions to their ranks today, but in most
instances the coal companies were able
to supply the places of those induced
to leave.
The operators are reported TO be in need
of men experienced in colliery work.
The supply Of company men, such as
clerks, teamsters, bosses and other men
employed around the mines at odd Jobs
has been exhausted and the companies
are now drawing upon the non-union men
brought into the region.
systematic boycott of all persons and
establishments that in any way supply the
wants of non-union men has been in
augurated and is having its effect in bring
ing men out of the mines. Men of all
callings, including bartendcrs, butchers,
grocery clerks, ETC., are organized in the
coal region. A non-unon man in most
places cannot be served and if he is tke
establishment is Immediately boycotted.
Families of non-union men are conse-
quently having much trouble in buying the
necessaries OF life.
