AFTER THE BEEF TRUST.
Monopolists Are Warned That Roose-
welt Means Business.

washington, FEB. 2.-lt can be said
by authority that unless the corpora
tons constituting the alleged beef
trust" shall heed the injunction made
permanent yesterday by the decision
OF the supreme court of the United
States, the government will institute
proceedings against the individual
members Of the corporations to en-
force the decision Of the court. The
proceedings will be under the criminal
law, il such can be instituted.
The minds of the president and
members of his cabinet are made up
fully on the question. They have de
termined that the beef trust shall
obey the law, and now mat the high
est court in the land has upheld the
hands Of the administration, it is said
they will permit no further "dilly daI
lying" with the subject.
At today's meeting the president
and Attorney General Moody shared
in the congratulations of the mem
bers of the cabinet on the result Of
the beef trust case before the SUI
preme court.
The president, who made no attempt
to conceal his satisfaction at the de-
cisiOn of the court. united with the
members of the cabinet in congratu-
lating tn attorney general.
The subject was considered briefly
at the meeting. but no definite con
clusiOn was reached as to what ac-
ton. if any, the government would
take in the future, except the general
determination to enforce the law as
it has been construed by the courts.
The president and the members of the
cabinet regard the decision of the sn-
preme court as signal triumph OF
law as they have viewed it, and are
prepared to carry it into effect absO-
lutely.
All the members of the cabinet
were present at the meeting except
Secretaries Hay and Wilson, the form
err still being confined to his home by
a severe cold.
Some departmental matters were
considered at the meeting, the most
important of which was the action OF
