BEEF TRUST Objects TO
Investigation METHODS

Chicago, May 15.-Representative
of four large packing concerns have
gone to Washington with the intention
of making protest to President Roose-
welt against the manner in which they
declare the investigation into the beef
industry is being conducted before the
federal grand jury. The protest, it is
said, will be made along the following
lines:
That packing company witnesses
have been browbeaten before the jury
and compelled to tell what they knew !;
that questionable detective methods
have been used by the secret service
men to secure information for the gov
eminent. That the wives of the pack
ers have been called before the grand
jury to testify against their husbands,
who are out Of the city, and they have
been forced to remain constantly in
Chicago for no apparent reason.
That the private mail Of some of the
packers has fallen into the hands of
the government, when the mail had
nothing to do with the investigation.
That the treatment of the packers in
Chicago by the local federal authori-
ties has been like that accorded by the
police toward a common criminal.
1t is said that the packers last week
arranged for meeting with the presi-
dent.
Federal officers claim to have an
important new witness in the beef
trust inquiry. H. J. Streyckmans,
who before the interstate commerce
commission divulged the alleged secret
system of rebales and overcharges by
Armour & Co., and read secret code,
will be brought before the federal
grand jury Investigating the beef in.
dustry. 1t is expected the grand jury
will have completed its taking testi.
mony by Wednesday or Thursday.

SECRET CODE USED BY
The ARMOUR COMPANY

Chicago, May 15.-Sensational tes-
timony as to an alleged secret code
used by the Armours in making rebate
was given before the interstate COM
MERGE commission here. Testimony
was given by H. Streyckmans, former
ly employed by Armour & Co. as stem
ographer. Witness read from a book
some of the code words and their
meaning, as follows:
Laughsome-Rebate
Launch-Better arrange rebate there
Launching-Can make rebate.
Laura-Handle rebate matters very
carefully.
Lavada-Pay rebates from cash on
hand.
observation-disclosures must be confiden-
tial.
Woodpath - Interstate commerce
commission.
Here there was a ripple of laughter
among the shippers present. The in
terstate commissioners smiled. Mr..
Streyckmans continued:
Woodprint-Avoid service of sum-
mons from interstate commerce COM
mission.
The laughter grew more audible.
Footnote-Mee interstate commerce

When the code words standing for
the names Of the interstate commerce
commissioners were read laughter and
hand clapping among the shippers
caused Chairman Clements to rap for
Oruer.
Streyckmans declared that the prof.
its to the Armour lines on the icings
ran as high as 500 to 900 per cent.
"The profits per car on shipments
from California to New York. said
the witness, "were on an average of

BUY in Open MARKET
IMPORTANT DECISION As To
CANAL SUPPLIES.
Ships and Other Things Necessary
for Building the Panama Canal
Will Be Bought Where They
Can Be Had Cheapest-Ciub Over
American Dealers.

Washington, May 16.-The execu-
tive committee Of the isthmian canal
commission has decided to purchase in
the markets of the world material and
ships necessary for the building of the
Panama canal.
= This important decision was reached
with some reluctance, because it was
appreciated by Secretary Taft and the
executive committee that there will
surely be great outcry from two great
interests in this country, the producers
OF material and the ship owners. If the
purchases are not limited to the Amer
lean products. But it was decided
that the money consideration was so
great that it could not be ignored, for
it held in some cases fully so per cent
more would be charged for material
needed in canal construction than the
same goods could be procured for in
Europe.
Chic Engineer Wallace, for instance,
showed that two ships in addition to
those running between New York and
Colon and owned by the Panama Rail
road Company were absolutely neces-
sary to carry the food supply and ma
terial necessary for the work.
No American ship could be bought
for any reasonable price, and when it
came to building such ships it was
found, according to Secretary Taft s
statements, that while he can buy two
1900 ton ships in Europe for $3.50, 900,
it would cost 81 100000 to build such
ships here. And. in addition, while
the European ships could be had at
once, it would take at least eighteen
months to secure American boats.
As to material needed for canal con-
struction, the committee decided that
by reserving to itself the right to pur-
chase in the worlds markets it would
at least oblige American manufactur-
ers to give them the benefit of their
foreign prices if they wish to sell goods
to the commission.
Secretary Taft explained that he felt
obliged to indorse this decision, be-
cause, having given congress every op-
portunity to give contrary decision,
he felt that the very terms of the canal
act provided that it should be con-
structed at the lowest possible cost.

THE CURVED BALL.
1t Is the Atm s phere Which Causes
Its Eccentric Shoots.

- AtHIOSPnChC
Its Eccentric shoots.
Almost any ten-year-old youngster
can curve a ball. even though he does
not know why he can do SO except
that the leather must be held in GER
tain way. Possibly half dozen of
the major league twirlers know some
thing about the science Of the curve,
but comparatively few understand why
they can produce their blenders. The
Scientific American gives the follow
ing as the scientific explanation of the
matter:
The pitcher in the field tells us that
the ball curves because he gives it a
twist. but scientifically this will not
do. Why will the twist make the
curve? If a ball were thrown in GER
tain direction and If the force Of gravl-
tatiOn were not at work the ball would
continue on in a straight line forever.
Some force Of resistance is then at
work when a ball Is made to deviate in
a curve from Its straight course. If
feather is dropped in a vacuum in an
exhausted receiver Of an air pump it
will drop like a shot, but II 1t is drop
ped out in the air it Will go down ir-
regularly and slowly. shifting from
side to side.
1t is the atmosphere which causes
the ball to curve. Bearing in mind
that the atmosphere is a compressible,
elastic gas. we And that when the ball
leaves the hand of the pitcher with Il
rapid rotary motion 1t 'impinges upon
a continuous elastic cushion and this
moderate resistance, or friction.
changes its course in che direction
which Is given to the rotary motion.
Take an outshoOt Of a right handed
pitcher. for instance. He impresses
upon the ball rapid centrifugal ro-
tary motion to the left. and the ball
goes to the left because the atmos-
phere. compressible and elastic. is
