BURTON Will RETIRE
II Seems Certain That He VIII Re-
fuse 10 Run for Congress.
HANNA'S PLEA WON.
He Says Cleveland OiIleehelders Who
Offended Mr.. burton Arc Not 70
he DISCIPLINED, bat WIN
Remain In 0flice.

Washington. June ii.-There now
seems to be no doubt that Represent
ative Burton will withdraw from the
race for congress from the Cleveland
district since matters seem TO hase
shaped themselves SO that II will be
impossible for him TO reconsider his
determination. The federal officials In
Cleveland who were responsible for
the coup which compelled Mr.. Burton
10 retire are not TO be disciplined for
pernicious activity. Senator Hannas
plea for them at the White House
having been thoroughly successful.
Senator Hanna had a long confer
ence with the president Tuesday. AT
the conclusion Of the interview be
talked freely regarding the published
intentions OF Mr.. Burton OF Ohio 70
withdraw from the race for congress
owing TO the fact that he had not been
permitted 10 name the chairman OF the
district committee.
Il don't want TO criticlse Mr.. Bur-
ton" said the senator, "but ] do not
believe his charges are well founded.
nor do | want TO make that subject n
national matter. The whole thing Is
absurd"
Senator Hanna declared that Mr..
Burton never spoke to him about the
matter OF having candidate OF his
own until last Friday morning. The
election was 10 take place at 2 o'clock
that afternoon and Senator Hanna said
he sent a telegram 10 Cleveland ask
ing that q compromise be effected. II
possible.
"A mistake In transmission made
the Initials in the dispatch incorrect,
continued Mr.. Hanna. 'and the mes
sage was regarded as a fake and no
attention paid to IT. hut even II had
been there they would have paid no
attention to me-"
Senator Hanna also stated that the
civil service commission had examined
into Mr.. Buttons charges that certain
federal office holders In Ohio had TAX
en- an active part In politics and had
failed to find anything in them that
constituted violation OF the civil SER
vice law. As a result the president
has concluded not 10 send letters 10
the Cleveland officers censuring them
for pernicious activity In politics. With
some warmth Senator Hanna said.
1.-THE mere fact man holds public
Office does not necessarily mean that
he should resign his rights OF citizen
ship"
The senator secuted the Idea OF his
falling out with the president on this
matter and seemed 10 feel that he had
been put in a false light through Mr..
Burton's action.

RISE IN THE PRICE OF MEATS
Further Advance Imminent as Result O.
Chicago Teamstsrs' Strike.
PACKERS AND MEN WILL FIGHT IT OUT
signs of Peace Fade rs Result of
Intellectual Conference and n
Bitter Struggle is
Looked For.

CHICAGO, May 2e.-Prospects OF a pre-
cipitsted rise in the price Of meat and q
fight to a finish between the packers AMI
Teamsters' union No. 20 developed ut the
Union Stockyards today. Signs OF peace
faded as the result OF an Intellectual con-
ference and indications Of a general strike
grew stronger. Two smaller unions are
already out. Swift and Company have pre-
pared to arrange sleeping quarters for
employees at their packing house and hum
dreds OF cots have been taken into the
yards.
The distribution Of meat to local houses
was attended by great difficulty today,
owing to the attitude Of the striking team
sters. No work was attempted without
the presence Of the police.
A nonunion teamster made an attempt
to deliver meat TO the Palmer house and
was severely beaten for his pains.
At every point where attempts were made
to unload refrigerator cars police were
present to prevent trouble One car was
sent back to the stockyards 1t having been
found impossible to unload it.
The Bohemian Butchers association, con-
trolling 130 shops, has offered to close up
for four days to aid the teamsters II de-
sired
The Water street 'luggers' organized
today and announced that they would re-
fuse to lug meat not carted by union
teamsters.

SHORTEN TIME TO THE COAST
Eastern Roads Project scheme for
Faster Schedule from
New York.

CHICAGO, May 29.-The Chronicle to-
first great step toward faster time between
New York and the Pacific coast. There
is a well-founded report that there has
been an agreement between the Pennsylva-
MIA and New York Central officials by
which the fast trains are to go in at once
and that the time to be made between
New York and Chicago is to be twenty
hours.
This schedule is generally looked upon as
a compromise, which relieves the situa-
tion Of the possibility OF pressing the
speed to undue limits. The matter has
progressed to the point where there has
been a meeting OF the New York Centrals
passenger representatives, called for the
purpose of arranging the time schedule
between New York and Chicago. Similar
action will be taken by the Pennsylvania.
This meeting will be held the present week
and the settlement OF this d,tail will be
followed quickly by the announcement of
the new train.
This is a shortening of the time between
New York and Chicago by four hours below
the fastest trains now running and almost
six to eight hours below the ordinary
trains.
Following the determination OF the Chi
cago & Northwestern to put in fast train
from Chicago to Denver by June 1. the
action Of the eastern lines is regarded as
having a direct bearing on the plans for
quicker time to the Pacific coast.

A member OF the association made the
startling disclosure today Of a series Of
frauds being perpetrated on the railroads
OF the country. The evidence produced
showed that there is an attorney somewhere
in the west who, with three other men. is
engaged in holding up railroads in nearly
every big accident which occurs. The game
worked is TO have two Of the men in the
deal pretend to have been seriously injured
in an accident. The men are not present
at the time Of the accident Of course. but
they turn up in time to swear that they
were in the wreck. and by means Of their
peculiar ability TO dislocate a hipjoint or
some other part OF their anatomy at will.
they lay claim to damages. The attorney
follows them to the scene, a third man
swears that he saw the two injured men in
the train prior to the wreck and a claim for
heavy damages thus results.
