AFTER BEEF PACKERS
Attorney General Of New Y ork

neutrality-suspicious. Rise In the
Price of Meat May Result In
Criminal Proceedings.

NEW YORK. April 16.-Attorney
General Davies of this state is here
from Albany to conduct an investga-
tion into the charges which have ap-
peared in print of late that combina-
tion of the big beef packers of the coun-
try have forced up the price of meats.
OF his investigation Mr.. Davies said:
II do not know whether or not you
here in New York fully appreciate the
extent of the criticism which has been
leveled at the beef packers In my own
county, Oneida, there has been actual
suffering on account Of the exceptional
ly high rates charged by the western
ers have received many letters from
different sections of the state. All of
the writers complain of the present diff
ficulty of supplying meat to their fami-
lies They ask me if cannot do some
thing to relieve them.
Before l left Albany | talked over
the meat situation with the governor.
| found him much interested in the
subject and very much against any
high handed proceedings on the part of
any combination. He is willing to in
dorse any step | may take looking to
the relief of the citizens of the state.
II am not at liberty to tell the results
of my investigations. l have heard
plenty of rumors and many reports re-
garding the doings of the packers here.
but until | can reduce what | have
heard TO evidence that will be strong
enough to take before court | must
keep silent. l can only say that, as far
as my Investigations have gone. it looks
very much as if the packers had eX'
ceeded their legal powers. If when
examine these meat men before a ref
cree find that they are guilty of over
stepping their rights. l shall proceed
against them on the ground of restraint
of trade and of carrying on business
injurious TO public policy. 1t is crimi
nal for any body of men to create q
monopoly on commodity that is essen
tial to the maintenance of life. If any
criminality is found, the proper authori
ties shall be instructed to bring pro
ceedings against them"

Peace News.

Peace News.
LONDON, April 16.-The following
dispatch. dated Pretoria, April 10, has
been received at the war office from
Lord Kitchener:
Bruce Hamilton's columns arrived
at the Standerton line last night, hav-
ing taken 145 Beers. including killed
and wounded, during the movement
from the Middelburg line"
The house of commons has adopted
the increased check duty by 1856 to 119
votes.
In the house of commons Mr.. A. j.
Balfour, the government leader, said
that the government had no informa-
ton to impart at present as to peace in
South Africa, nor could ii have for
awhile. AS soon as any news was re-
ceived it would be communicated to the
house.
The Daily Mail in its issue Of this
morning says it understands a serious
hitch has occurred in the peace negotia-
tions in South Africa. The cabinet
council has decided to refuse a strongly
worded request from the Boer leaders
at Pretoria for an armistice pending the
negotiations. This alone is not likely tC
cause the Beers TO withdraw from tho
conference.

The Drops In The State.
Farmers Troubled by washouts and Fields
Show Up But Poorly.

Reports to the State department Of
agriculture from the farming districts
of Pennsylvania indicate that at no
period during the last fifteen years has
the wheat crop shown so poorly above
the ground. The roots seem TO have
made very fair growth however, and
with fairly good weather until harvest
good crop may be expected.
The exceptions to this are the hilly
fields which slope toward the north
and northeast, and which received the
full force of the February and March
winds, blowing the earth from the
roots and exposing them to the drying
weather at the most critical period of
their growth.
Many fields are washed into deep
gulhes, which not only are an eyesore
10 the careful farmer, but which also
greatly interfere with the harvesting
machinery upon which farmers must
now a most entirely rely. In many
cases, where the plow marks run up
and down the slope of the hill the
washes are more than furrow deep,
and cannot at present be effectually
prevented, as work now done would
interfere with the growth of wheat to
an extent which would prevent any
profit.
The timothy, sown at seeding time
last fall, makes a fair showing, but II
is too soon yet 10 even speculate upon
the condition ofthe spring -sown clover
seed. much of which was sown quite
late in the season. Those farmers VINO
make two sowings OF their cloverseed,
seem to have the best crop and the
plan is gaining favor among farmers
all over the state.
More than the usual area of pota
toes will be planted in this state this
year, and large crop and low prices
may be expected. 1t is nearly always
the rule thst high prices are followed
by an increased area planted, and the
natural result of low prices and large
crop follows. The time to plant large
ly Of the potato crop is following a
season Of low prices.
There is growing disposition
among Pennsylvania farmers, especi.
ally in the dairy districts, to throw the
GA; crop out of the rotation, and 10
substitute for it something of more
value as a milk and butter producer
Some accomplish this by building silos
and planting corn to be converted in
to silage. Others SOW Hungarian grass
but the great difficulty in curing this
crop prevents many from trying it.
A few have tested oats to be cut fol
hay. The crop, however, is open to
the objections that rain after it has
been cut washes the sand and dirt on
to il, almost ruins it for hay. Some
reporters for the department OF agrl
culture claim that any crop which
would make either pasture or hay
would be a great boon to the farmers
of the state.

Iy or Indirectly.

NEW YORK. April 1G.-Wall street
passed through one of its most exciting
and sensational periods yesterday. The
Louisville and Nashville situation,
which had hung menacngly over the
district for a week or more. was clear
d by the undisputed statement that
Ohm w. Gates and his associates had
rrested control of the property from
lc Belmont party and were in abso-
ute possession. Accompanying this
statement. which had been discounted
the day before, was one that the Gates
faction had selected j. L. Morgan X
Co. TO settle the differences between
the contending interests.
While these events were happening
movement without parallel in the
history of the Stock Exchange was on
in Southern railway. Trading in
Southern railway common set in on n
tremendous scale. and at one time in
terest centered almost entirely in that
stock.
In the first half hour fully 100000
shares of Southern railway common
changed hands. BY the end of the first
hour transactions in this stock alone
reached n total of over 100000 shares.
BY noon considerably more than half a
million shares changed hands.
Dealings fell off after that to some
extent. but the records for the number
of shares of single stock sold in one
hour. in two hours and in one days
trading were all shattered as result
of Southern railways performance.
The total sales for the day reached a
total of S64.J00 shares. The total out
standing stock of the company is 1900.

men before the close of the day. Presi.
