IN CHICAGO.
[BY TELEGRAPH To THE rR1BuSE.I ]

Chicago. May 13.-HostiIities between the beef
packers and the government seem 10 have ended
temporarily with the filing of the prayer fer
an injunction. 1t is reported that John s Mil
Ter, representing the packers S special counsel
and S. Bethea, the United States District At
terney, have come 10 understanding whereby
the packers will not oppose a temporary ihjune-
tOn, but will later fight a finish Counsel for the
beef men and the federal authorities are quietly
arranging for the legal contest next Tuesday
next twenty-four hours TO be present at the
Interstate hearing, which will begin on Thurs
day, and which borders close on the injunction
against the packers as the hearing has to do
with the alleged granting OF cut rates to the
dressed beef and packing house interests Judge
Day II Is said. Will probe deeply, and Try to ad-
duce evidence that may be of value when the
testimony in the beef case is heard.
What the defence will do in the way of filing
OIL before the opportunity TO resist the grant
ing or an injunction comes UP is known only
70 Attorney Miller. and he will not talk for
publication
The federal grand jury met to-day Mr.
bethea refused to say what If any, action the
Jury was likely To take against the packers for
alleged violation of the law in restraint Of
trade. II was learned indirectly however that
MI bethea would not bring the matter before
the jury. As for the members of that bodv
themselves, who largely farmers from tbe
outlying districts, il is unlikely that thew will
want TO investigate something thar inst nov
means big profits 10 them and is nor a r,attar
for their dissatisfaction.

bin has received cable message from General
Chafee in regard to the disposition of the troops
now IN the Philippines 1t shows that the army
is distributed at 245 stations, averaging a little
more than one company TO a station. whereas on
May 81, 1901, there were 400 military stations in
the archipelago, averaging slightly less than a
company TO a station. The recent withdrawal
OF troops from service in the Philippines is in
dlcated by the statement that there are now
only ~ companies at 245 stations, as compared
with AUS companies of troops at 400 stations in
May of last year Outside OF the provinces of
Batangas and Samar the 40 military stations
existing in May 1901, have been reduced TO 1870
at the present time. War Department officials
