There is little question but that the

way into the possession of Mr.. Bethea.
| The compact in a nutshell is that all
! fresh meat dealers are to pay the packers
for their product on a certain day OF the
/ week.
If the dealers did not pay on that day
they were to be given nothing except for
| cash.
fine was fixed in the agreement to be
/ paid by the packer vrho dtd not live up ia
| the requirements TO which he had put his
signature
This document in itself, the packers
say, does not show there is any compact
between them TO RESTRAIN trade
The Government officials believe, how
ever, it will tend to show that the credit
agreement is q BLIND to a trust com.
pact.
Grand jury May Act.
The interest of the packers attorneys
was centered today about the probability
that the Government will present bills for
the approval of the Federal grand Jury SO
that criminal prosecution may be brought.
Denials that the packers intend to form
billion dollar combination to thwart the
attack Of the Government on the so-called
beef trust" came thick and fast today
Attorney L. G. Krauthof, who acts for
Armour q Co. said:
The story is the product OF some ones
ripe imagination. 1t is absolutely false
and have not heard of such a plan out
side the newspapers.
Before the beef trust inquiry is ended
States Attorney Deneen may be asked TO
take hand. In the event of a combiaa-
ton of the packers the State law might
be invoked, as II has been held in the
glucose cases. tried before the Suprcm.
Court, that foreign corporations cannot
combine In the manner indicated. Some
of the principal packing concerns are in
corpcrated under the laws Of outside
States, and attorneys say this would pre-
vent a merger.
Veal is Plentiful.
CINCINNATI, April 29.-The retail mar
kct is glutted with veal. There is so much
of it that 1t is the cheapest meat to buy. /, ,
Some can be bought as low as 10 cents per |
pound. To the man with big family who |
must have quantity, veal is 4 boon just |
now.
There were fifteen vacant stalls in the 1
Sixth Street market today. One butcher
said he would not open his stand again |
until conditions improve Several of the
butchers do not open their stands except
on Saturday, when trade is brisk. They
say IL is no use to open during the week.
Several of the Sixth Street market
stands vacated during the year have not
been rented. When the Sixth Street mar
ket was erected six years ago some stalls
were worth premium of 81 500. Now
stalls can be secured FOR the asking.

STATEMENT ISSUED
BY SAMUEL GOMPERS
President of American FEEDER
alton Refutes Charges.
Sore Caused by Steel Strike of 1901 Re-
opened-Exchange of Tele-
grams.

| President Samuel Gompers, of tbs
American Federation of Labor, issued &
statement last night in regard to the pub
Association of Iron and Steel Workers
now being held at Wheeling, ": Va.
| 1t is understood that on April 81, Presi-
dent T. J. Shaffer, of the Amalgamated
Association, read his report and during
| its discourse he stated that the American
Federation of Labor did not contribute
one cent to the assistance Of the associa-
tion during the recent strike.
MIR. Shaffer, it is said, further stated
that when 1t was seen that by lack of
money and loss of public approval and
desertion by hundreds of the association s
own people, they were doomed to meet
with something short of a decisive vic
tory, an agreement was made with Mr.
Gompers to meet Mr.. J. Pierponf Morgan
and endeavor to effect settlement This.
Mr.. Shaffer stated, MIR. Gompers refused
to do.
Mr.. Gompers' Statement.
Mr.. Gompers' statement is as follows:
Il desire to say that on April % read
in the morning papers repetition of the
insinuations and reflections which Mr..
Shaffer pub;irh1d last September. and
which at the time ] fully refuted and
answered, and which everyone accepted,
and Mr.. Shaffer seemed to accept as COM
pletely closing the Incident. In my report
TO the Scranton convention of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor last December
stated that the steel strike of last year
was settled upon conditions less adj
vantage Gus than could have been obtain
ed. Mr.. Shaffer was at the convention, and
never challenged that statement. and ii
was unanimously approved and stands as
the historic fact in the labor movement
OF the country.
However. when saw the republication
CT the original insinuation alleged to have
been made by Mr.. Shaffer in the conven-
tion OF the Amalgamated Association now
going on, sent the following telegram:
Washington, ID. c., April % 1902

Association Of Iron and Steel Work
ers. Wheeling. W. Va:
Dispatches published in today's papers
from Wheeling state President Shaffer re-
iterated in his report substantially his re-
hection upon the American Federation OF

TO advise me by wire whether he did make
such report.

Validity of Findings of a
Court-Martial to Be
Determined.
A WAR DEPARTMENT FIGHT
Was Convicted by Court Composed of Of
ficeIs of the Regular Army, Which His
Counsel. Contend Had No Authority in
the Premises.

In the Supreme Court of the United
States yesterday was heard the very in
teresting case OF Capt. Peter C. Deming.
Arguments were advanced for ant
against the validity of the findings of the
courtmartial which declared Deming to
be guilty of transportation of Govern
ment funds. and in addition to dismissal
from the army imposed a sentence OF
three years at hard labor in the military
prison at Fort Leavenworth, Kan.
This was in June, 1900, and last Febru-
airy. after strenuous efforts by his coun-
sci, Captain Deming was released on a
writ OF habeas corpus granted by Judge
Sanborne, of the United States circuit
court Of appeals. sitting then in the city
OF st. Louis. after a writ had been re-
fused by the circuit court. Captain DEM
ing furnished bail in The sum of 50, 900 and
returned to his home in Buffalo. N. Y.
Captain Deming's arrest, conviction, ind
Imprisonment are said to be the result Of
the alleged bitterness with which Off
GERS OF the Regular Army regard those IN
the volunteer service. Deming was COM
missioned assistant commissary of sub
sistence in the United States Volunteers
in May, 1898. with the staff rank Of cap
tain, and in March. 1900. while stationed
at San Francisco. was court-martialed for
the offense alleged
The court-martial called by General
shafter was composed entirely of Of
hcers of the Regular Army, and taking
this into consideration Deming's counsel
ADVISED him to plead guilty and throw
himself on the mercy OF the court. the
lawyer arguing that he stood no show of
acquittai from court composed of Regrl-
lar Army officers. Judge Sanborne, in re-
leasing Deming, rendered most exhaus-
tive decision, in which. after quoting
many authorities in support of his judg-
ment, said the cOurt-martial was Illegal
" constituted and that the insuperable
objection TO the Jurisdiction of this court
md to the validity of its sentence was
hat the officer who called ii General
was not only unauthorized but
vas positively prohibited by act of Con-
sress to constitute it of officers of the
Regular Army.
