LIVE STOCK MEN WITH PRESIDENT

National Association Instructs Dele
EatSa to Work SOrIRate Regulation.
In circular Just issued by Secretary ].
H. Gwihn Of the National Live Stock asso"
citation the information is given that the
central committee, meeting in Denver Oc-
tober 20 and p, instructed its delegation to
the Interstate Commerce Law convention
at Chicago to present a strong resolution
endorsing the president on. the railway rate
question.
Attention is called to the fact that at the
next annual meeting OF the association to
be held in Denver, beginning January go
the proposed consolidation OF the National
Live Stock association, with the American
Stock Growers association, will come up
for ratification by the two bodies meeting
simultaneously. The central and executive
committees of the respective organizations
already have agreed on the merger and out
lined a plan for it's execution. The purpose
is to gain the strength that will come by a
common organization OF all live stock inter-
ests The constitution and bylaws OF the
American Stock Growers association. mod
ined 80 as to admit to membership associa-
lions OF live stock producers, as we'll as in
dlviduals, will be made the basis of the
new organization.
Attention Is called to the fact that while
the reciprocity convention at Chicago in
August was a great success, yet the efforts
and the fight necessary to get the laws de-
manded will be a stubborn one and may
last number Of years before the object IL
attained. The campaign is now in the
hands OF a committee.
At the meeting of the central committee
a resolution was adopted DECLARING that the
appropriation made by congress for expert
mental stations and use of the Bureau of
Animal Industry and for meat inspection
absolutely insufficient for the live stock in
terests of the country. Because the live
stock industry is threatened I'm many ways
by diseases which require. careful scientific
investigation and the welfare of the gen.
eral public is believed TO justify the dis
tribution OF the burdens involved in meat
inspection, senators and representatives
are asked to make ample provision at the
next session Of congress.

o'REILLY SUGGESTS A CHANGE
Surgeon General OF Army Thinks
There Are Too Many sur
EeOns General.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 26-surgeon Gen
eral oReilly Of the army has prepared q
statement showing there are three medical
officers with the same title he holds, which
has led to confusion which might become
more serious in time OF war. The title OF
surgeon general of the army was bestowed
on the head of the medical department OF
the army in 1918 In 1871 the chief of the
bureau of surgery and medicine of the
navy was made surgeon general OF the
navy. In 1902 the supervising surgeon OF
the marine hospital service was made sur
geon general Of the marine hospital ser
vice.
General OReilly says kilograms ad-
dressed to the surgeon general" may be
sent 70 any of these officers. He thinks
that as his corps has had the title so much
longer than the others It is entitled tc
keep 1t. Legislation by congress would
be necessary 70 effect the change.

"a inches. It's draft being "a feet. The larg-
est battIeshlp in commission in the Ameri-
can navy Is but sSs feet long, with a normal
displacement OF 1850 tons. The Brooklyn,
the largest armored cruiser in the United
States navy, when the war with Spain
was fought, is but s.215 tons, while the
largest battleship in the navy in 1885 had
a displacement Of but u,275. These COM
parative figures will give some idea OF the
size OF the West Virginia and it's class.
Within the coming year two battleships OF
1900 tons displacement will be placed In
commission, but even these will not have
the extreme length Of the West Virginia.
To man the West Virginia requires a
complement OF forty-one officers and 7SI
bluejackets. Special care has been given
in the construction OF the armored cruisers
OF this class to provide for the comfort of
the enlisted men. The galieys are OF the
most modern and approved type and baker
les have been installed which insure a fresh
supply Of bread daily.
The West Virginia carries a main battery
II four S-inch guns and fourteen 6-inch guns
Of the rapid FIRE type, which is supple
mented by strong array OF smaller guns
Tor a secondary battery. It also is pro-
vided with two torpedo tubes.
As the West Virginia is fitted as a flag
ship, It is admirably adapted to the use
OF the president and the spacious quarters
provided for the admiral will insure the
comfort OF the president on his homewaTd
Journey. These quarters are located in
the extreme afterpart of the vessel. The
admiral's cabin is fifteen feet wide and
tweny-six feet In length. extending from
one side OF the ship to the other. This is
used es the dining room and in It there
is a dining table, sideboard and dining
chairs, all of mahogany, besides a number
OF large easy chairs. There is but little
woodwork aside from the doors and furni-
ture. The exposed steel has been treated
to a coat of white enamel, which. with
curtains OF green velour. hung on polished
brass rods at all doors and air ports, and
rugs of American make on the floors pro-
duees a harmonious effect, Adjoining the
admirals cabin is the pantry and the ad-
mirars ONCE. The cabin aft may be EN-
ployed as a lounging room, The hangings

The West Virginia Is commanded by

The Colorado is commanded by Captain
Duncan Kennedy and the Pennsylvania by
Captain Thomas c. Mclean. The Mary

Brownson's DIVISION which was under
going repairs, could not be made ready in

The Young Peoples club OF St. Johns
church presented a drama at Guild hall
friends and patrons of the church. The
play was given as a church benefit and the
talent was entirely from among its young
people. "CheVrons" was the name OF the
drama, and deserves comment In that Il
was an original play by r. T. King one OF
their young men. The action of the sketch
lies In the fact that Captain Wilderman is
tempted into a game OF cards and loses
heavily. He steals his wife's jewels to pay
his debt OF honor and TO conceal the theft
throws suspicion on sergeant of his cons
pany, who is lifted TO the rank OF hero.

ployed by the Chicago packers, were
heard at to-days session Of the spe'
cial grand jury which is investigat'
ing the business transactions Of the
so-called beef trust
All of these men were subjected TO
a rigid examination as to whether
they had been approached by outsid-
crs since being called as Witnesses,
the inquisitorial body evidently be-
ing more anxious, for the present at
least, to secure further evidence OF
alleged tampering with witnesses by
interested persons than to secure real
facts concerning the beef comhIna-
ton.
From a federal official it was learn
ed that several witnesses had been
approached, and as soon as the proof
ia in the hands of District Attorney
Morrison, it is said more indictments
will be returned.
John e. Shields, general slperln'
tendent, indicted on charge Of try
ing to influence a witness, was put
under 81 900 bonds to appear at the
July term of the United States dis
trjct court when the Connors case is
set for hearing. Shields signed his
own bond and left for New York to-
night.
