STRUGGLE FOR HEN FRUIT.
Every Corner of the Western States
Being Secured for Eggs by
the Packers Agents.

Chicago, April 26.-The struggle for
the control of the eggs of the coun-
try has become the tiercest in the
whole range of farm products, says
the Record Herald. Every corner of
the western states is being searched
for eggs by agents for Swift & Co.,
Armour & Co. and few smaller deal
ers who have capital enough to ena-
BILE them to compete with these lead
ers of the provision world. AS re-
suit of this competition prices paid
to farmers are rapidly advancing, and
every indication points to unpre-
cedented high prices for cold storage
eggs next winter.

The query, rs there beef trust"'
presents itself to the country with
considerable emphasis. The men at
the head of it still contend that there
is no combination. Everything which
is being done by meat men is legiti-
mate, they say. They declare that it
is impossible to control the prices,
and these fluctuate from day to day.
This will probably be the answer
which will be made in the courts
when the governments suit begins.

The persistence of the peace re-
ports in London is pleasing. 1t shows
there is good basis for the feeling
that the end of the war is in sight.
Two or three weeks, it is said, must
elapse before the Beers in the field
can get chance to vote on the terms
which England has allowed, and in
the interval probably the military
movements win be kept up. What
ever the terms may be, there is a
chance that they will be accepted.

The Boer war has indeed been a
humanity staggerer for Great Britain.
In addition to the vast cost of the
war direct, it low transpires that her
experts are falling off. In March
her business in this line decreased

attribute this decrease directly to the
war in South Africa.

A dispatch from Manila referring
to the report that campaign methods
in the Philippines are to be exhaus-
lively investigated says: '1t is gener-
ally felt by military officers that the
conditions under which warfare is
conducted in the Philippines are not
understood N the United States"
That remark is well put. Those who
have fought savages, who give no
quarter and resort to every form of
treachery, are better informed on the
necessities of the case than those
who think that war can be carried
on benevolently. War is hell, said
Gen. Sherman. War with savages is
hell intensified. ar

President Roosevelt vetoed a bill
granting a pension of SIT per month
% Thomas F. Walter, who served as
a lieutenant I'm a Pennsylvania volun-
teer regiment during the civil war,
for the reason that the records of the
war department show that the officer
was cashiered by sentence of a gem
eral court-martial for disobedience of
orders, as to going on picket duty,
and that this disobedience was adj
mitted. The president said: "To in
scribe his name on the pension roll
would be to oondone an inexcusable
offense by commissioned officer. to
detract from the high estimate in
which the pension roll ought ever to
be held, and to do injustice to sol
diers now on that roll, especially to
those under the act of June %, 1890,
where an honorable discharge from
the service is a condition precedent
to obtaining q pension" The presi-
dents action in this manner will be
heartily Endorsed by every old sol
dier.

JONES CALLS A MEETING.
Toledo Mayor Issues Proclamation
Upon Miners Strike.

. Toledo, O., Oct. 1.-Samuel NJ.
Jones, the Golden Rule mayor, yester.
day issued a proclamation regarding
the miners strike, in which, after
telling of the strike and the outlook,
that, with winter coming, thousands
will not be able to get coal, he says:
This state Of affairs has moved
some of our fellow citizens in Bos-
to to ask the United States courts TO
appoint a receiver for the various an.
thracite mining companies and the
coal carrying roads that are the direct
cause of the trouble through their
absolute refusal to submit the Ques-
ton of their differences to arbitra-
ton.
Believing that this matter is one
of vital Importance and that these
Boston citizens should have the ben
eft Of the moral support Of all good
people everywhere and for the purpose
of giving an opportunity to the peo-
pie of our city to speak en- masse on
this topic, /. therefore, call upon all
patriotic and hberty-loving citizens, 20

after the subject had been considered
for some time they adjourned to an
other room and conferred together
for an hour. They all returned later
in the day and held another confer.
ence with the president and the strike
situation was discussed further. The
approach of winter, with coal fam
inc imminent, and the distress and
suffering that must ensue unless coal
becomes available, presents situa-
ton which he thinks should receive
the attention of the administration,
if there is anything that can be done
by the government Many appeals
have been made to him and many
suggestions have been received by
him, and it was with a view to ascer-
tanning what power the federal au-
thority could evoke that caused the
conference to be held.
Don't Warrant Federal Interference.
During the conference every phase
Of the situation was discussed. The
general opinion of the advisers Of the
President was that the situation did
not present a case in which there
could be Federal interference by any
warrant Of law. There has been no
interference with Federal authority in
the anthracite region, either by stop
page Of the mails or resistance of the
United States court press. 1t was
pointed out that there was no occa-
sion for the use of Federdal troops.
as Governor Stone, Of Pennsylvania,
had not called on the government for
assistance, nor had he even exhausted
the resources of the state by calling
out the full strength Of the state mill
tia. The question Of the right to seek
the Appointment or receivers for the
mines, in order that they might be Cd
Grated, was discussed, but neither in
the constitution nor in any known law
could any legal warrant be found for
such action, though the discussion on
such lines even went so far as the cor
sideration OF how the properties could
be relinquished and control surrender
ed, after the object of supplying coal
had been accepted, assuming the Fed
eral government could intervene
through receivers. The tenor of the
whole discussion was to the effect
that there was a lack of power in the
Federal administration to take any
action at the present stage Of the
