event in many particulars. The meeting
took place on the last regular night of
the Ladies' club and, as luck would have
it, there were - ladies and Is gents.
The meeting was called to order by the.
president, and minutes of the previous
meeting we're read and approved. Meet
ing was then thrown open for regular
business. Things we're not altogether
harmonious, but the question, IRE
solved. That 1t is proper for the women
to propose" was very skillfully handled.
During the discussion the gentlemen
were very restless, and when the ques-
ton was decided in the affirmative, the
Major asked permission to withdraw.
He was ordered to his seat, the door
locked. and the key given to the presi-
dent. As there were no windows, his
means of escape were hopeless, and he
fell to the floor in swoon. Develop

I.ondon.--LOndon was enveloped
Wednesday afternoon in black fog
more dense than anything witnessed
in the last years. AS early as p. m
the city was lighted up everywhere the
same as at night, but even electricity
and gas failed to dispel the gloom
The fog was particularly thick In
the West End, where the streets were
crowded with Christmas shoppers. In
many places the traffic was almost
completely stopped and the greatest
care was necessary to avoid accidents,
a number Of which have already been
reported.
AS night closed in the density in

only serving to accentuate the dark
ness. In the most crowded section OF
the center of London vehicle traffic was

direction. TOrchbOys did big busi-

Moody to Argue Beef Case.

Washington. On the reassembling
OF the supreme court Of the United
States on Jan. 3, Atty. Gen. Moody will
argue the beef trust injunction ap'
peal.
About two years ago the government
In Chicago obtained an injunction
against the beef trust on the ground
that the trust was violating the pro-
visions OF the Sherman antitrust law.
The allegations made by the govern
ment were, in brief, that the beef
packers. although supposed to be rivals
and competitors, were, as matter Oh
fact, in combine to fix the price 10
be paid for live stock, and also that
combination existed among them to
determine the price to be paid for
dressed meats by the wholesale butch
ers.
These were the main allegations.
Supplementary to them were charges
that the packers established black
list and men whose names were black
listed found It impossible to obtain
neat from the packers, and the pack
ers obtained secret rebates from the
railways.
All these things the government held
to be in restraint OF trade, and conse-
quently In violation Of the Sherman
antitrust law.
The government obtained an injunc-
ton against the packers, and the grant
ing of this injunction compelled the
packers to modify in some ways their
methods Of conducting business to con-
form with the terms Of the injunction.
From the injunction issued in Chicago
the packers appealed to the supreme
court of the United States. and 1t Is
in opposition to the appeal to dissolve
the injunction that Mr.. Moody will
appear in the supreme court.
The case is perhaps the most import
ant of all the prosecutions that have
been instituted since 1t was discovered
that the Sherman law meant some.
