which are supposed to be in defiance of
the law All that class Of testimony has
been withheld. as President Roosevelt
explained in his message to the House,
pending the investigation by a federal
grand jury in Chicago, under the general
direction Of Attorney General Moody.
There will be more than ordinary in
terest, however. in the report as submit
ted to Congress because it is the first
time that the operations Of the combi-
nation of great packing houses has ever
been subject to official scrutiny.
Commissioner Garfield of the bureau of
corporations, in the body of the report,
expresses the opinion that the individual
packing companies are apparently not
overca pitalized, and that on the whole the
price of dressed meats is not as excess
i've as the general public has been led
to believe.
The report as it stands is so generally
favorable to the packers that they may
be inclined to circulate it in order to put
themselves right with the public. The
eliminated portions of the report WILL of
course, be submitted to the grand jury,
aud that body will have to decide wheth-
er they justify any different conclusions
from those embodied in the portions of
the report made public.
Commissioner Garfeld's report brings
out the following points with reference
TO the business and profits Cd the six big
companies-Armour & Co, Swift & Co.,
Morris & Co.. the National Packing
Company. the Schwarzschild & Sulzber-
ger Company, and the Cudahy Packing
Company:
That the big Six slaughtered in the
year 1903 5.521. 695 head Of cattle out Of
total Indicated slaughter In the United
States Of 100000 head, or about 45 per
eent.
That the true average net profit for three
communicative Armour Swift and SchwarZ-
schild & Suzberger-for the twelve months
ending June 80 1903. was 90 cents per head.
That the year 1902, instead OF being one
Of exorbitant profits, as has been common
ly supposed. was less profitable than usual;
that during the months when prices Of
lsaaf were the highest some, at least, OF the
leading packers were actually losing money
81 every kind Of cattle slaughtered.
That the margin between the price Of cat
he and the price Of beef during the year
1903 Instead of being unusually high as
that year lower than the margin for any
corresponding half year since 1898.
That the six leading packing companies
are not overcapitalized.
That the percentage Of profit on the gross
volume Of business. including hog and
sheep products and other minor commodi-
ties Is comparatively small: that ia The
years 1902 1903. and 1904 Swift & Co.'S
profits did not exceed . per cent; Cudahy's.

That the profit 81 private car lines is
liberal one. Il to II per cent. or - cents

Taking into consideration the peculiar

An extraordinary spectacle such as
no American municipality ever before
witnessed and which many think does
little credit to its participants, howso-

because it lays religion bare to ridicule,
was given in Philadelphia the other day.
when all the advocates of reform Joined
in day of prayer for the city officials
About 200 preachers met in Holy Trim
ity church and prayed that the "shackles
of the gang be stricken from our sinful
Mayor" About 300 others held services
in their own churches. Prayer meetings
were held in homes and in one church
1000 women prayed and tasted the en-
tire day. Thousands upon thousands of
prayers were made between the hours of
10 and 4. Before the meetings men pa
raded the streets with banners inscribed
Pray for the Mayor
Some prominent business men protest
ed against the gathering, asserting that
it WIS an absurdity. The prayer meet
ings were part of the anti-vice crusade
which is being waged in Philadelphia.
The Mayor. who is a prominent church
man, has been appealed to to bring about
reforms and has been asked TO remove
the head of the police department and
failed to do so.

HEALER's FEE Is ILLEGAL.
Practice of Christian Science for Money
Arueuah Ie in Ohm.


The decision of the Ohio Supreme
Court, holding that Christian Science
healers cannot practice without State
license, does not affect those who prac-
tice the doctrine as a religious belief,
according to the decision given out the
other day. The court says: The giving
OF Christian Science treatment for fee
Tor the cure of disease is practicing medl-
cine within the meaning of the statutes
regulating such practice in this State.
Inc statute making it a misdemeanor TO
give such treatment for a fee IS not an
interference with the rights of consciencc
ana OF worship, conserved by section :
OF the bill Of rights. and is not on that
ground unconstitutional. Legislation pro-
hlDlting anyone from treating disease
LOT a lee except such persons as have
prescribed qualifications is a valid exer-
else OF the police power of the State and
IS constitutional. The act regulating the
practice of medicine in this State exacts
reasonable qualifications and excludes no
one possessing them, and it is not void
as discriminating against Christian Sci
entists In that it prescri5es that anyone
possessing certain qualifica tious may
practice osteopathy and does not make
especial provision for those who wish to
practice Christian Science"
