MYSTERY IN DEATH.
Disappearance Of G. B. Spahr Like
Loomis Drowning.

LONDON. September &c B. Spahr Of
Kings Bridge, New York city, editor of two
magazines of New York, either fell or
jumped overheard from the steamer Prince
Albert, midway between Ostend and Dover
at about o'clock in the evening of August
80.
His mysterious disappearance, recalling
that Of Frederick Kent Loomis, was re-
ported on the arrival of the steamer at
Dover to the American consul, Mr. Pres
colt, by E. w. Ordway of 1903 Dean street,
Brooklyn, in whose company Mr.. Spahr was
making a tour Of Europe for the benefit
of his health. Mr.. Spahr seemed to have
been much improved by his trip, and his
companion said he never for a moment sus-
pected that he would attempt to commit
suicide.
Mr. Spahr left behind him a small bag,
but Mr.. Ordway reported to Mr.. Prescott
that there was nothing of any value in 1t,
nor any letters or papers throwing light on
his sudden disappearance. Mr.. Spahrs
heavy baggage was shipped from Trieste to
Liverpool some days ago for shipment to
New York on the Cunard line steamer Au-
rama, September 6.

BOARD OF TRADE OPERATIONS.

CHICAGO, September 1.-The strike or
der of President Donnelly of the butchers
national organization, with regard to inde-
pendent packing plants is to apply only to
those plants in Chicago and st. Louis.
1T was President Donnelly's idea," said
a national official of the striking butchers
organization today, Ito tie up the independ-
ent plants and bring on a meat shortage
in order to awaken public interest In the
strike. This was opposed because 1t was
felt such action would hurt us by throwing
our own men out of employment in large
numbers. Confining the order to Chicago
and ST. Louis is not an effort to produce
a meat famine, but is simply case of CO.
operation with the striking meat handlers.
Comparatively few Independent houses Will
be affected
STOCK handlers" said President Donnel-
ly "are on strike only in Chicago and st.
Louis. In Chicago only the independents
within the stock yards Enclosure will be OF
necessity affected. Union men employed In
Independent packing houses will not be per-
mitted to dress cattle handled on the hoof
by non-union-men.
.The fate Of the outside independent pack
ers depends on their ability to secure stock
without recourse to the stock yards COM
pany."
Complications affecting board Of trade
operations were feared as the result of the
strike in the five Independent establish
ments affected by the order. September
options in tierce lard, me5s pork and ribs
fell due for delivery today and the inde-
pendent packers were without crews to
make deliveries where he product was
actually demanded for shipment. If nom

cleaning up preparatory q leaving declared
they would drop their work at once.

Representatives Of the Independent pack
