HENRY DAVIS
SEES PARKER

ESOPUS, N. Y, July 30.-Henry
Gassaway Davis arrived from New
York, accompanied by his secretary
and National Committeeman Mack
who came along primarily because
Davis had never met Judge Parker
and Mack effected the introduction.
TIE party was met by Secretary Nc
Causland and the Judges son-in-law,
Rev. Charles Mercer Hall, and driven
to Rosemont Immediately.
The senator seemed to be as spry
as a boy Of 16 years. He is here to
discuss thoroughly with the Judge the
Craftsmanship situation and before he
leaves something like a definite plan
for the campaign win have been
mapped out.
Sheehan is not expected back from
New York until tomorrow and it is
said at Rosemont that the possible
development of an informal confer
ence now in progress in the metropo-
lis may keep him there even longer.
The failure of German to accept
the invitation to visit Esopus along
with Davis is explained by the argu-
ment that it would be poor taste for
him to do SO as long as he is a can
didate for the craftsmanship Of the
national committee.

meeting Of the packers is awaited
with much anxiety.
At IL o'clock the packers sent the
unicns a letter agreeing to meet rep
resentativcs of the allied trades this
afternoon at the downtown Offices Of
Swift at o'clock.
The agreement by the packers thus
again to meet with the union leaders
is interpreted variously. Ostensibly
it is to make arrangements for future
peace.
President Donnelly Of the butchers
union has been strongly urged to give
up his tenac aciously held stand that all
the strikers out be taken back pend
ing arbitration. but 1t is unlikely he
will accept, as he claims the packers
made no concessions whatever.

OYSTER BAY, N. Y, July 90
President Roosevelt enjoyed a period
of rest today. No visitors were re-
ceived at Sycamore. 1t was denied
on authority today that the president
has sent secret agent to Chicago
for the purpose of investigating the
beef strike. Secretary Loeb said the
department of commerce always
sends men to the scenes of strikes
whenever they occur and, of course,
has it's agents In Chicago.
Should the strike assume such pro-
portions that any great number Of
people are distressed and should it
become evident that the contending
factions In the quarrel can not reach
an agreement, 1t is more than prob
able the president will take such
action as he did year ago In the
coal strike.
