BEEF TRUST MERGER MAY
BE COMPLETED BY APRIL.
Will Begin With Combination of
Smaller Independent Concerns
Which We're Bought Last Year.

Chicago. Feb. 23.-The Post to-day says:
Plans practically are complete for thu
merging of the interests Of the firms thu
comprise the Beef Trust.
Unless something unforeseen arises. April
1 will see the official announcement Of the
incorporation of a securities holding COM
pany, which eventually may control the
meat trade of the world.
Unlike the popular idea of the packers,
merger, however, for the time being 1t IS
not to embrace everything in sight, nor Is
it to be. capitalized at $500. 0O. 900. as an
nounced By the United States Packing Com
pany.
Further, the plans contemplate no fric-
ton with the Federal courts. because of the
recent decision by Judge Grosscup against
the packing-house combination.
The nucleus of the great combination OF
worldwide interests is to be the merger Of
the smaller Independent plants bought las:
year by the big packers. preparatory to tn
general merger planned at that time. The
securities to be held by the new CORPORA
ton are those of the G. II. Hammond Pack
ing Company. the Omaha Packing Company.
the Anglo-American Fowler companies. the
St. Louis Beef Company and the United
States Dressed-Beef Company, and possibly
several of the outside stock yards now con-
trolled by Chicago interests.

Republican Statehood Plan for
Two States Is Not Entirely
Acceptable to Minority.
DEMOCRATS TO DISCUSS IT.
Counter Proposition, Fixing Date
When Arizona May Come Into
Union as a Separate State
Probably Will Be Made.

Washington. Feb. 23.-AIl day there has
been talk of compromise on the statehood
bill. 1t was generally understood that what
was known as the Spooner comprehensive
Ing the %two-States bill drawn by the Wis
consin Senator-would be satisfactory to
the Republicans.
The terms of this compromise have been
given heretofore, save that the provision
for the State of Montezuma provides that,
before Arizona can be set off as a sepa-
rate State. the population of Montezuma
must be 100000. of which 100000 should be
in Arizona.
The Democrats, while talking in a con-
ciliatory spirit. said that they had little
hope that the Republican proposition would
be acceptable to them.
The Democrats say they want a provision
fixing the date which will bring Arizona
into the Union. This would not be salts
factory to the Republicans.
continue there are only a few Senator'S
who expect an adjustment to be reached.
and the prospects Of statehood legislation
are still remote.

pated in by Senators Aldrich, Quay. Hanna,

sitton Will be rejected, and q ounte prop
