BEEF MEN PROTEST.
Delegation from the Packers Will
Complain to President
Roosevelt.

Chicago, May 15.-In the belief that
they are being treated as common
criminals and have not been accorded
the proper courtesy due them as Amer
lean citizens and business men the Chi
cago packers or their representatives
intend to make protest to President
Roosevelt regarding the conduct of
District Attorney Morrison in the in
vestigation of the beef industry by the
federal grand jury Every effort was
made to keep the matter secret, but
1t was learned that representatives of
the packers will arrive in Washington
this morning and that some sort of an
agreement has been made to meet the
president. The men who have gone to
Washington represent Armour & Co..
Nelson Morris & Co., the National
Packing company and Swift & Co.
The protest, it is said, will be made
along the lines that packing house wit
nesses have been practically bullied be-
fore the grand jury to force them to
tell what they know; that cheap detec-
tive methods have been used by the
secret service men tosecure information
for the grand jury; that the wives of
employees of the packers have been
called before the grand jury to testify
against their husbands and have been
frightened and coerced to remain in
Chicago constantly for no apparent
reason; that the private mail of some
of the packers has fallen into the
hands of the government when the
mail has had nothing whatever to do
with the investigation. and that the
general treatment of the packers in
Chicago by the federal officials has
been like that accorded by the police
toward a common criminal.

MONEY liz GREAT BRITAIN.

The income tax in Great Britain is
levied on $3,500,00O,000 of annual in
come, and produces 100000 of
revenue for the government.
From money invested abroad alone
Great Britain's capitalists probably re-
ceive $1,000, 100000 year Of income,
though no one can tell exactly.
That is only $244 a year for each
person II it were equally divided. 1t
isn't. Less than 100000 persons have
more than half the total income.
1t is probable that the total Of pri-
vate incomes, great and small, in the
United States is over s25, ZOO, 000, 900.
though the sum cannot be so closely
estimated as in the island kingdom.
IL Mr.. Gibsen Bowles Is right in
saying that only oneAthird of the ma
tional income pays the tax, the total
of incomes of the united kingdom
must be $1O,5OO, 100000, sum almost
inconceivably vast.

Commerce Commission. A railroad

ment that lines are paid mileage, with

rates. Car mileage paying has been de-
cided to be as legal as the payment OF
