PACKERS ARE SCARED.
Several Think Europe a Good Place
For Them at Pre- sent.

Chicago, June GA. H. Veeder,
general counsel for Swift 81 Co., who
was one of the most important factors
in the inquiry into the methods of the
called beef trust, has suddenly left
the city, 1t is said he is missing in
consequence of the widening of the
government inquiry.
Veeder's going away is said to mark
general exodus Of the meat magnates
to foreign chimes. In this conMection
the fact that Thomas Connors, Of Ar
mour 81 Co. is about to visit the effete
monarchies of the old world is partic-
ularly commented on. 1t is also stated
that other important witnesses who
occupy positions high in the packing
industries are also not available.
Some of the big traffic officials of
various railroads doing business with
the packing trust have also found it
convenient to be out of the city at this
particular time. 1t is now announced
by the federal authorities that the
grand jury will probably finish its la.
bors the first week in July. when a big
batch OF indictments against the pack
ers and their aides de camp will prob
ably be voted.

NECESSITIES COST MORE.
Prices OF Fuel, Clothing and Food
Products JnCressino,

Washington, June 27.--The prices
Of fuel, clothing and practically all
food products are constantly increas-
ing, according to bulletin issued by
the bureau of labor covering the peri
cd from 1890 to 1904. In the early
'90s prices were very high, but in the
last four years they have been steadily
increasing. until now they are rela-
lively higher than in 1892, just before
the memorable financial and CONNER
cial depression. The average increase
in 1904 in the wholesale price of farm
products over the average for the years
1890 and 1899 is 26.2 per cent.
OF fifty-two articles included under
the head Of food it is shown that in
1904 tho prices of all but fourteen ar.
ticles were higher than the average
prices from 1890 to 1899. Seventy
articles under the head of cloth and
clothing show that the average for
1904 was 9.S per cent higher than the
average from 1890 to 1899. The table
on fuel and lighting places the average
1904 price at 1916 per cent higher than
the 1890 to 1899 prices.

SWEDEN Will NOT TRY

tockholm, June 22.--The extraordi-

ing the union is now win session. The
government Immediately introduced a
bill asking authorization to enter into
negotiations with the Norwegian storth-
ing and draw up conditional settle.
ment of the questions involved in the
separation of the heretofore dual king
dom.
In the council of state held Tuesday,
which sanctioned the introduction of
the bill in the riksdag dealing with
the crisis both the king and premier
were on the side of pacific solution.
Premier Ramstedt spoke first, point
ing out that it was not to Sweden's in.
terest to resort to coercive measures
He recommended, therefore, entering
into negotiations for "a convention by
which guarantees should be obtained
conducive to tho mutual welfare of
the two countries. In any case, he
declared, negotiations We're indispensa-
BILE to clear up the situation definitely
The premier suggested that delegates
be appointed to this end, and it was
only after such conditional settle
ment and after the riksdag had fully
considered tho matter that Sweden
would be in ponsition to decide as to
the definite approval of the dissolution
and agree to annulilng the act of the
union.
After several Others had spoken King
Oscar arose and said, among other
things: -
1.-THE union is not worth the sacri-
foes which acts Of coercion would en-
tail. A union into which Norway
would be forced in such IA manner
would be Of little value to Sweden"
The king concluded with expressing
the hope that the Swedish people would
be guided by calmness and prudence
and that God would give them strength
and unity to regain within their own
frontiers what they had lost by the
dissolution Of the union. 20"

CAUGHT OLD OFFENDER.
Larry Nelly, Notorious Smuggier,
OVerhauied bv Officers,


Tacoma. June 27.-Larry Kelly, the
most notorious opium smuggler of the
sound region, was captured red hand
ed yesterday by Inspectors +. G. Dean,
of Port Townsend, and Fred King, of
Tacoma.
The capture of Kelly marks the end
of chase that has continued for three
months by King and for between three
and four weeks by the two inspectors
com bined.
For several months it has been
known that smuggling was being car.
ried ON between British Columbi cit
les and points in the vicinity of Taco.
ma and Olympia, but 30. adroitly has
it been worked, that the most careful
watching failed to intercept the
"dope."
Several days ago Messrs. King and
Dean secured clews. acting upon which
they bruised in small government
gasoline launch in the vicinity of
Vashon island and along the west pas
sage and in the waters opposite Seat
tie.
Shortly before noon yesterday they
passed Point Defiance and sighted a
small sloop which had just passed
through the Narrows and with sails
set and the tide behind it was appar.
emily making for Olympia.
Dean and King gave chase, but the
occupant of the sloop appeared not to
suspect that he was being followed and
continued down the channel until op.
posite McNeils island, when the
launch overhau ed him.
When the crafts were within easy
hailing distance and escape was impos-
sible, Kelly appeared to realize his po-
sition and tried to make speed by u.s.
ing his oars. The inspectors ordered
him to stop, telling him that they were
officers.
well, you've got me, and I've got
the stuff" Kelly replied.
"How much have you?" Dean asked.
"Sixty pounds, replied the SNUG
gler.
When Dean expressed surprise that
he should take the chance of arrest for
such small cargo Of contraband, KEEL.
ly justified the hazard by declaring
that he bought all he could with his
limited capital. He was taken into
custody and the sloop was hitched to
the launch and towed to Tacoma. The
sloop will be confiscated.

PRAISE ron noRToH. /.
resident Reviews Santa re Rail-
road Case.

Washington, June 28.-President
Roosevelt has taken occasion to express
himself in positive terms compliment
tary to the integrity and ability Of
PaulM orion, former vice president of
the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe
Railroad company, and now conclud-
ing his duties as secretary of the navy
that he may assume the Craftsmanship
of the Equitable Life Assurance Soci-
ETY., of New York.
These expressions are contained in
two letters, one addressed to the attor-
ney general and the other to Mr.. Nor
ton. The letters were made public to-
getber ithw number OF others, which,
taken together, show the precise point
of difference between the department
of Justice and Messrs. Harmon and
Judgson, who recently resigned as spe-
cial counsel for the government in the
rebate case involving the Santa Fe
road and the Colorado Fuel and Iron
Company.
Desired Contempt Proceedings.
The special counsel wished to bring
contempt proceedings against the Off
GERS of the road, which would have in
cluded Mr.. Morton. Their position
was that the testimony adduced before
the interstate commerce commission
established a violation of the court or.
der of March %, 1909, restraining the
company from executing an agreement
to transport interstate tracffi at rates
lower than the published tariff of the
road.
This testimony, they contended,
constituted prima facie case against
the officers of the road, and the only
way to ascertain their guilt or inno-
cence vast through contempt proceed
ings. The department of Justice, on
the other hand, thought proper to bring
contempt proceedings against the COM
panyies on the ground that while the
evidence before the commission might
show violation of the injunction by
the road, it contained nothing charg-
ing any officer of the company with
such violation.
President Roosevelt took the same
view. Both the ATTORNEY general and
the president agreed that contempt
proceedings should be instituted i'm
personally against the corporation in
both the Colorado Fuel and Interna-
tional Harvester cases. The latter
case, the president says, stands extact-
ly on the same footing and involves
practically all of the Western roads.
In pra Of Tho 1ntSnro tho y,raci ont
says that the information given by Mr..
Morton has helped greatly to break up
the practice of rebate giving, and that
thanks are due him for his action in
the matter.
