one of the issues in Ohio where SEN
ator Hanna rolled up the largest ma
jority ever won in the Buckeye state
AS the senator is pledged to such
a bill and that the people have sus-

as probable that the bill is going
through. The fact that such a meas

The identity of the consular agent
was not disclosed but the information
was that the four hundred Colombian
soldiers, through the good Offices Of
Commander Hubbard, had been pro-
vided with transportation to Cartheg-
na. 1t is supposed detachment of
the revolutionists from Panama at
once crossed and occupied Colon.
This impression prevailed the con-
ference that recognition of the new
republic might be delayed longer than
has heretofore been expected. One OF
the conferers said that the government
on the isthmus must give evidences of
being permanent and stable before 1t
can be formally received.

VIRTUALLY CONTROLS
THE MEAT INDUSTRY
Big Four" of Chicago Obtains Contro
OfBig Boston Packing
House.

Boston, Mass, Nov. 5.--The John p.
Squire property in East Cambridge Is
now said to have passed under the
control of the Big Four of Chicago,
the Armours, Cudahys. and Norris
The rumor has been current for some
time that efforts of most strenuous
kind were being put forth by the Chi
cago combine to obtain controlling
interest In the stock, although pool
had been formed by the prominent
stockholders OF the company to pre-
vent any such move.
The protective committee of the
Squire company today issued a state
ment to the effect that arrangements
to sell the stock at $14 share had
been made. There is $6,O0O,00O of
common stock of the Squire company,
which represents the debts of the cor
poration at 100 cents on the dollar,
when the company was reorganized in
1901. About six months ago outside
interests endeavored to secure control
OF the Squire company and offered SIS
per share, but were unable to obtain
the control. The change virtually
means that the big Four" now has
practically complete control of large
portion of the meat packing business
in this country.

London. Nov. 6.-The Times this
