GREAT DOINGS SCHEDULED TO

May Hang Packers. Lawyers and Cor
porations With Same Rope

Chicago Aug. I4-Simultan-
eously with President Roosevelt's
statement at Chautauqua regarding
the prosecution of the indicted
packers the serving Of subpoenas
began, and the date of their return
shows that the trials of the twenty
four packe' S and lawyers and the
five corporations charged with COM
hining in restraint of trade, accept
ing rebates and interfering with
government witnesses will be start
ed October 2. Twenty subpoenas
were served secretly Friday, and
the work continues with the gov
ernment officials observing the
utmost secrecy.
The issuance of the papers was
a complete surprise to the packers,
who had been ignorant of the
movements Of the government
prosecutors. The resumption Of
activity in the beef cases followed
a recent conference in Washington
] between President Roosevelt and
District Attorney Morrison. when
the president directed that the
cases should be pushed.
Government officials have learn
ed that the packers will not enter
the trial of the cases with one
counsel general in the position now
occupied by John S. Miller. 1t is
probable that Attorney Miller will
represent J. Ogden Armour and
his corporation, but no others.
Each individual has arranged for
legal counsel and small army Of
talent will be opposed by the gov
ernment on October and there
after. The government official:
realize that between now and thai
time the defendants may spring a
coup in some form or other and
and upset the present plans.

New Orleans, Aug ia. With

and with total rumber of deaths
since July r3, one month, of only
Is4, an average of a five day, the
marine hospital service authorities
today began the second week. Of
their fight against the yellow
fever.
In spite Of all appeals that have
been made by the presence Of the
federal authorities, there is still
suppression OF cases. One instance
is that OF daughter Of a well known
lawyer. She i said to have a
typical case and to have been
treated only by a nearby druggist.
When discovered by a doctor her
condition was hopeless. Yester-
day she died. The consequence is
that steps are to be taken to com
pei druggists to make prompt re-
port of all cases of illness that come
under their observation. The
Southern Pacific has taken steps tc

New Orleans, Aug. I4.-Partly
as a result of left over cases from
Sunday and partly from the fact
that inspectors wcre able to put in
full days work, there was again a
large number of new cases Of yellow
fever reported today, the bulk OF
them, as before coming from below
Canal street. That section is now
very generally infected, though
there are some areas Of it which
have thus far entirely escaped.
Slow progress is made by the di-
sease in what's known as the Amer
lean portion of the city and with
few exception the cases are isolated.
Some infection has existed IN
scattered quarters where local doc

Toxic, Feb. 10.-Entry to Vladivos-

Tsushima straits and Tsugaru straits.
The Soya straits are barred by ice.
Reports received here from Hokkaido
and also IRON coasting vessels say
Soya straits are not frozen over, but
are 1illed with hoes and bergs, making
navigation practically impossible. To
further increase the difficulty of reach
ing Vladivostok the Japanese govern
ment announces that the lighthouses
in the vicinity of Tsugaru straits will
not be lighted except occasionally.
The official announcement says this
decision was necessary for strategic
reasons and warns coasting and neu-

garu straits they must exercise the
greatest care. The japanese continue

HINTS AT SEPARATION.
Significant Speech by the Premier Of
NOrWay,


Christiania, Feb. 10.--In the stor.
thing IT. Hagerup, the Norwegian
premier, made a significant speech
announcing the failure OF the negotia-
tions between Sweden and Norway on
the question OF separate consular rep
reSentation.
DE-. Hagerup said that a most seri.
GUS situation was created. The people
of Norway were animated by q desire
to continue the good understanding
with neighboring nations; but the
present conditions of the union are
indefensible and cannot continue with
out endangering these relations.
1t was the duty, therefore, he said,
of the storthing to make an unrestrict-
ed provision for the assumption by
Norway of the national and interna-
tional position to which she is entitled
as a sovereign state and more free
working forms Of cooperation must be
considered if the existing bonds of
union between Sweden and Norway
are to continue.

PRESIDENT URGED TO ACT
HEAD OF PEACE CONGRESS ASKS
ROOSEVELT TO TRY AND
END EASTERN WAR.

Washington, Feb. 10 President
Roosevelt has been urged to take some
action looking to the termination OF
the RISSO-JapaneSe war, The request
was made by the nterparliamentary
union, through the president of the or
ganization, Representative Bartholdt
Of Missouri. DR.. Bartholdt explained
to the president that the consensus OF
opinion among the members of the un-
ion and among European parliament
tarians with wnom he is in correspond
ence was that the president or the
United States was the one man, with
the possible exception or the emperor
OF Germany, who Indicated no dlsposi-
ton to Try to bring the war 10 an end.
VINO misg4ta nesa1sslencd &c ons the SUB
ject with favor by Russia. Dr. Bar
tholdt pointed out that, although Rus
sia had let it be understood that any
offer of mediation from whatever
source would be not only unwelcome
but would he regarded as an unfriend-
ly act, such an attitude was in viola
tion OF the plain stipulations OF The
Hague convention, Of which Russia
was not only a party but of which the
czar was the moving power. The
president gave DR.. Bartholdt no def
mite assurances beyond promising to
consider the matter with Secretary
Hay.
It is known to be quite unlikely that
this government will take any definite
action looking to mediation until some
assurances have been received from
both parties to the pending conflict
that such action would not be unwel-

HOUSE PASSES EscH-ToWNsEND
BILL FOR REGULATION OF
RAILROAD RATES.
DEMOCRATIC SUBSTITUTE DEFEATED
MEASURE FAVORED BY THE MI.
NoRlTY KILLED BY DEcl-
slvEs MAJORITY.

Washington, Feb. 10.-By a vote of
326 yeas to II nays the house has
passed the Esch- Townsend bill extend
Ing authority to the interstate COM
merce commission to fix railroad rates.
The Davey bill, the Democratic sub
stitute for railroad rate legislation,
was defeated, Isl yeas to 1856 nays.
Less than twenty-five members were
in their seats when the last days de-
bate on the bill was opened by Mr..
Pierce (Tenn.), who, after announcing
that the president, on the subject or
rate legislation, was the greatest lead
er that has lived in the Republican.
ranks since the Civil war, said he
would support the Esch-Townsend bill.
He, however, based his support upon
the fact that. William j. Bryan and the
Democratic party had declared for
such legislation.
ting the necessity for legislation, at
tackled the Esch-T Townsend uill as be-
ing an inadequate treatment of the
question. The bill, he said, was sin
gularly lacking in it's compliance with
Recommendations of the President.
1t did not reach private car lines and
1t was not to be supposed that the
courts would be eager and searching
in the endeavor to find in it something
on that subject which its authors
themselves could not find.
MIR. Crumpacker Qnd.) said he
would ungrudgingly support the ma.
jority measure, because the power to
regulate railroad companies always
had been recognized, the question now
being simply one Of policy.
The closing remarks for the minor.
ity We're made by Mr.. Williams
(Miss.), who at the outset congratu-
lated the house upon the fact that not
only in the matter of rate legislation
but in several other particulars Presi-
dent Roosevelt, nominated by the Re-
publican party and elscted b. the peo-
pie, was beginning to assume a dis
tinctly Democratic attitude. He said
he had begun to hope that the presi-
dent would recommend revision Of the
tariff and that the president would see
that it was altogether absurd to keep
10000 more soldiers than were needed.

AMENDMENTS OBJECTIONABLE.
Not Believed Senate Will Ratify Ar.

& s : Z 90 81
Washington, Feb. 10.-It is under.
stood that the president will make no
move in the matter of disposing of the
arbitration treaties now pending be-
fore the senate, notwithstanding the
action OF the senate committee on for
5eign relations in amending these trea-
ties in manner to make them objec-
tionabie to the administration. 1t is
felt that so little time. remains be
tween now and the 4th of March that
there is but slight prospect of action
by the senate upon the committees re-
port and besides there is no certainty
that the senate itself will approve the
committee amendments. so the belief
prevails that the conventions are
doomed to expire without action.
