WHAT MOODY SAYS
h Regard to the Governments Case Against the Otis Elevator
 Company.
GOVERNMENT cor ENOUGH.

Washington, June 2.-Attorney General Moody to-day, being asked concerning the significance of the ac- ton of the defendants in consentiEg g to a decree in favor of the govern mont in what is known as the case against the Otis Elevator company ct al against which the department recently instituted proceedings for violation of the federal antitrust laws, said:
 The circuit court of the United States for the Northern district cf California yesterday entered decree in the case recently instituted by the government against the Otis Elevator company and certain other corpora tions for violation of the federal anti trust laws. The decree grants per- petual injunction as prayed for in the bill enjoining each and all of the defendants from violating any of the provisions of the Sherman antitrust act, and particularly from contract- ing oriagreeing together in any man. ner. either expressly or impliedly, as to the trade and commerce in eleva- tors in the United States. The de- fendant corporations and their re- spective officers and agents are also perpetually enjoined from entering into any agreement or understanding as to prices to be charged for install- ing elevators or as to the territory in which any or all of them shall do bus iness. By the terms of the decree tie court retains jurisdiction of the suit to make any further or additional decree or to modify or enlarge the present decree from time to time as the equities of the case may de- mand."
 The bill of complaint in this case was filed in the circuit court on March z. 1906. against the Otis Ele- vator company and other corpora tions. It was alleged in the bill that the defendants made and sold at least 80 per cent. of all the eleva- tors used west of the Rocky noun tains and charged that they enter ed into a conspiracy among them selves to control and enhance the prices at which such elevators should be sold, and that the object of such conspiracy had ben effected by and through the Otis Elevator company and it's officers. The bill also charg that In order to still further destroy competition when- ever any independent company se- cured contract fictitious suits were instituted against such company by the Otis Elevator company for in- fringement of its patents but that such suits were really and in fact in stituted for the purpose of harassfng and injuring such independent com pany.
 Mir. Moody's statement adds:
 The decree which has been enter ed affords the government all the re- lief to which 1t is entitled under the law"

Scholarships to the Amount of $32,
 1O4 Were Given Out Last Year.

New x4axan.-June 2.-The annual report of the. Yale university bureau
 of self help for last year shows that tItorial scholarships were given out to needy students amuonting to $32,-
 104. Altogether PAP such scholar ships were given as compared with
 295 applications. There were 22S students applied for work of whom 101 were assisted by the bureau. Students obtaining work made re- turn of $S.204 earned, of which $2,- 39S came from odd jobs. $2,2S7 from waiting on table, $500 from type writing and s2.135 from summer work. The report states that every year several large corporations apply for assistance. one such corporation taking eight men from the bureau last year. A new and special feature of the work is the large number of needy graduatesf outside colleges who enter the academic senior class. Last year twenty-four such students entered the class. all but one of whom was self-dependent. thirteen of the twenty-four had very high stands in and eight of them the stand of philosophical oration.

AGAINST 4 TREATY. lsS German Butchers Association Against Further Importation of
 Meats.
  IN INTEREST OF PUBLIC HEALTH

Berlin, June 2.-The text of the petition of the. German Butchers as- sociation sent to Chancellor von Bue- low and Minister of Agriculture Won Hodbielski against any treaty ar engagement with the United States permitting increased imports of meat, ayers that the directors of the asso- ciation had learned that the great slaughtering companies in the United States in order to expand their sales abroad intended to seek relaxation of the German sanitary customs regu- lations, through the prospective com mercial treaty negotiations between Germany and the United States. The butchers of Germany therefore begged the chancellor in the interest of public health and the material in terests both of the butchers and farmers not to consider such relax ation. The argument supporting the requets includes comparison be- tween the numbers of animals reject ed, based on the official statistics of both countries, showing that the Prussian and other German inspec- tors disallow two to four times as many animals as the Americans and finds reason for this act in the su- perior health of the American food animals, but in the character of the inspectorship.
 Quotations are given from Prof R. Ostertag's recent book on veterinary medicine in the United States. Writ ing of meat inspection in the large slaughtering houses he says:
 "The examination is as cursory as is perhaps permissible considering the vast scale of slaughtering," and adds: Tt is perfectly clear that only such symptoms of disease can be per ceived as are plainly obvious"

A CALL FOR AID.
Mexican Outbreak at Cananea Has
 Become Serious.

AACNoiAAO oSAAOsASs
 Washington, June 2.-The state department has received most ur- gent telegraphic appeal for help from American Consul Galbraith at Cana nea, Mexico, in which the consul says:
 Aid from United States absolutely essential"
 The state department has also re- ceived direct application from the governor of the state of Sonora, Mex ico, for help from the American side, a most extraordinary occurrence. The direct appeal was the subject of nasty consultations to-day between the sec retary of state, the chief of stan, Brigadier General BeH-and the law officer of the war department, inas- much as the question of the right of the United States to send troops into friendly state' is in doubt. Mean while the officers of the general stan are making ready to execute any or ders that may be issued as the result of Secretary Roots decision. Four troops, 1,120 of cavalry, are at Fort Huachuca, just north of the inter- national boundary in Arizona. and the staff officers assume that by hard riding this force could reach Cana nea within a half day after they re- ceive orders. Communication is about to be opened with Major General Baldwin, commanding the Southwes- tern division, at his headquarters in Oklahoma City, and he in turn will givge the necessary instructions in case it is decided to use American troops, to Brigadier General Con- stance Williams. at the headquarters of the department of the Colorado In Denver.
