FROM A FINANCIAL STANDPOINT
THEY DO NOT PAY.
NOT ONE is SELF-SUPP0RTING
Eight Protectorates and All of Them
Compelled to Draw Upon the
Home Government for
Running Expenses.
(By Associated Press.)

London, April 14.-Germany's efforts to
extend and open up colonies are not
very successful from a financial point Of
view. The local annual revenue of the
eight protectorates which are under the
rule of the kaiser Is only $2.0OO.OO0 and
the reichstag has to vote $7,500, 900 to sup
port them.
Kaio Chou's revenue is $4,000, and a
subsidy of $3,000,O00 Is required to make
both ends meet.
Again, the revenue Of the protectorate
of South Africa amounts to $450,000, while
the total sum required for its govern
ment is $2,000.000.
But even these yearly subsidies do not
always represent the full amounts that
have to be provided out of the imperial
funds.
The estimates for the present year in
clude the sum of 100000 to cover the
deficits that occurred In 1898 and 1899 In
the budgets of the protectorates OF East
Africa the Camaroons and Southwest
Africa.

KANSAS CITY FEDERAL GRAND
JURY TO INVESTIGATE.
ORDERS FROM WASHINGTON
Retail Butchers Say That There Is
Trust-Not Allowed to Slaughter
Their Own Cattle-Must
Buy From Packers. &
(By Associated Press.l

Kansas City, April 1.-THE Journal to-
morrow VIII say, according to dispatch
from Washington, Major William War
ner, United States district attorney, has
been instructed by the attorney general
to Immediately take steps to dissolve the
so-called beff trust.
A federal grand jury will be ordered
this week to commence It's session next
Monday.
Major Warner positively refused yes
terday to make any statement Whatever
regarding the matter.
II have not word to say" he de-
clared, when asked about the order from
Washington.
Nothing so important to the entire
people has occurred in years as the Or
dering of this federal investigation, II it
should transpire to be a fact, as 1t is be-
lieved to be.
In the past year. but notably In the
six months past, the price of meat has
gone up in an alarming way. The at
torney for one of the largest packers in
| Kansas City, after hearing the dispatch
| to the journal read, said:
I'VE anticipated some such movement
as this. Two weeks ago dispatch from
| Washington indicated that President
Roosevelt would personally order an
investigation. We scarcely thought ii
would go to the length of having the
district attorney summon grand jury
as | understand Major Warner has ar
ranged to do. AS to the merits or de
merits Of the case, / have nothing t.
say.
"Oe course, all agree that meats arr
up so are CATTLE
A large retail dealer said.
I'VE think there is a trust. No butche
Is allowed to slaughter his own cattle
If he does, there will be a butcher sho
start up next door to him and he vii
find himself undersold in everything h
offers for sale.
"It Is this treatment which compels al
of us to buy from the packers and al
packers charge the same price"

CUBAN RECIPROCITY MEASURE
MEETS WITH OPPOSITION.
VOTE REACHED NEXT WEEK
Nearly Forty Republicans Who Will
Oppose the b..l But They Will
Not All of Them Vote With
the Democrats.
(By Associated Press.)


Washington, April 14.-The leaders of
the house expect to see the Cuban reci-
procity bill passed during the present
week, but they admit that the debate
may be prolonged so that the final vote
will not be reached until next week.
Proceeding as the debate Is, wlthou.
rule, 1t can be drawn out practically
us long as anybody desires to speak, but
the leaders believe the general debate
will exhaust itself by Thursday at the
latest. Mr.. Dalzel Will close the general
debate in favor of the bill When the
measure Is thrown open under the FIVE
minute rule great number of amend
ments will be offered by the democrats
with a view Of opening up a way for
amending the schedules of the Dingley
tariff law.
1t is known in advance that all such
amendments will be held to be not ger
mane to the bill, whose title provides
for reciprocity with Cuba, and that only
amendments rising or lowering the
amendment of the proposed concession
will be held to be In order.
The Real Fight.
Appeals will be taken from the ruling
OF the chair on the general tariff amend
ments, but 1t is certain that, with pos
sibly one exception the appeals will be
unsuccessful. That exception may be
the amendment to take he dlfferenal off
refined sugar. 1t Is admitted on both
sides of the chamber that the real fight
will come on that amendment. A num-
Der of republicans who are opposing the
bill have announced that they will vote
ITO overrule the chair on that proposition,
and the democrats expect to be able to
,nEo fn,. lf
the position Of the friends of this prop
osition is that the test will not come
directly on the amendment, but on the
ruling of the chair. If "a motion to re-
commit with instructions TO report back
such an amendment is made 1t will be
held not to be in order under the general
theory of parliamentary law that the
house cannot instruct the committee to
do what itself cannot do.
Republican Opposition.
The republican opposition to the BILL
as shown last Tuesday on the motion to
go into committee of the whole, Is In
the neighborhood of 40. Added to the
democratic vote, If solidly cast, the OPP
position would have clear majority OF
10, but the republican leaders profess
confidence that not enough of the re-
publican recalcitrants will go to the limit
of voting to override the chair to make
with the democrats a majority of the
house.
Moreover, they assert that some OF the
democrats themselves will hesitate to
adopt this method of getting vote on
proposition which they contend is plainly
not germane If the danger involved IN
the amendment to abolish the differential
is passed the bill win have plain sailing
on it's final passage, as majority OF the
democrats will vote for it.
