POOR PACKERS LOSING MONEY
According To Report Of Commissioner Of Cor.
pOfdtiOnS the Packers Should be Pitied
Changes Of Price In Cattle Are Said To Be No Indication
Of Change Of Profits

Washington, D. c., March 3.-Presi.
dent Roosevelt has transmitted to
congress the report OF the commits
sioner Of corporations upon the beef
industry, submitted in compliance
with a. resolution of the house of
representatives adopted March z,
1904. The report of the commission
er is to the effect that six packing
companies: Armour, Swift, Nelson
Norris, National Packing company,
Schwarzchild & Sulzberger and
Cudahy PACKING company, slaughter
ed in 1904 about 45 per cent Of The
total Indicated slaughter in the
United States; that the average net
profit in 1903 for three OF the COM
panies was 80 cents per head; that in
the year 1902. instead Of being one
Of exoridtant profits, was less profit
able than usual; that during the
months when prices of beef were

selves no indication whatever OF
the change in profits.
With reference to the private car
lines in the packing industry it is
stated that the profit is very liber-
al one, a net return Of from IA to II
per cent being indicated.
In conclusion the report says the
National Packing company, men
toned as one Of the "Big Six" is a
merger Of various packing plants and
is controlled by the Armour, Swift
and Morris interests, who constitute
its board of directors. Except for
the National Packing company, how
ever, there appears to be practically
general fnterownership of the stock
among the six principal companies.

TRAINS Crash IN

GREAT WESTERN STOCK TRAIN

Engine Strikes sleepers with Such
Force They are Thrown Over .
Twenty Foot Embankment. Mrs.
Clara N. Cross is Killed.

St Paul, Oct. 2-One dead. nine
seriously injured and ten suffering
from slight cuts and bruises is the re-
suit of one of the worst railroad wrecks
which ever occurred in st. Paul
A train of thirty-five cattle cars on
the Chicago Great Western road broke
away from the control of the crew and
struck the 500 passenger train No. 2
just as it was pulling out of the yards
at $3.50 yesterday morning headed for
Minneapolis. Striking the second
sleeper of the passenger, the engine of
the cattle train ripped two Of the
sleepers from the passenger train and
hurled them over retaining wall 1s
feet high into q gully 20 feet below.
Refusal of the airbrakes on the Chi
cago Great Western cattle train to
work is generally accepted as the
cause of the collision.
The 500 passenger pulled into the
st. Paul union depot at $3.50 a. m. from
Montreal, thirty minutes late.
At9:35 it was pulled out OF the ST
Paul union depot for Minneapolis, over
the main tracks of the Northern Pa,
eifc. 1t had cleared the main section
of the y yards and was nearing point
where the track upon which it was
funning leads to an inside double
track, over which it was to run to
Minneapolis 80
The engineer of tho cattle train ap-
piled the air and found that it was not
working: he whistled frantically for
brakes as he felt his train laundering
the open switch where it must inevit-
ably strike the swiftly approaching
train. ..... .-. ~r~ sa
Engineer Dan Hauey of the 500 saw
the danger, and with one supreme Of
fort he put for the switch, hoping, it
Is thought, to clear it before the mad
freight telescoped his train. He failed.
The first sleeper overturned by the
freight engine made a revolution and
a half before it landed in the pit of the
gully, and the second made a complete
revolution, loading in the gully upon
dts roof. , -0.
Penned in like cattle the passengers
were unable to stir. Some of them
were buried under the seats, others
were jammed beneath the huge tim
bers of the floors. r r.--e

the only person killed was returning
