refusing to accept Slaughtered calves for

refusing to accept Slaughtered calves for
shipment to different markets unless they
contained the government inspection stamp.
The effect Of this was to force farmers to
ship their live calves into the Chicago
stock yards and give the beef companies
a monopoly of the business. A delegation
to protest against this is in Washington.
and called on Secretary Wilson today. later
visiting the White House. Representative
Madden of Chicago was with the delega-
ton. Secretary Wilson said that the ex-
press companies were wrong and that
calves could be shipped as in the past. Be-
fore the passage OF the law the farmers

Uruguay Sends Compliments.
President Roosevelt was today presented
with Photographic portrait of the Presi-
dent of Uruguay. sent to him through Senior
Bermudez. the Uruguayan charge danafres
in Washington. who called at the White
House at half-past 2 o'clock to present
the gift. At the same time Senior Bermu-
DEE. in accordance with telegraphc In
structions from his government, laid before
the President complimentary message OF
good will from the president Of his coun-

appreciation Of Uruguay over the recent

The Florida Peonage Cases.
Miss Emma Stirling. the Florida woman
who has created q great stir in that state
by declaring that slavery exists to large
extent in the turpentine and lumber camps
and phosphate mines Of southern Florida,
had an interview with the President today.
Some time after she had gone away the
Attorney General went to the White House.
He Is believed to have been sent for by
the President to arrange a thorough In
vestigation Of the charges. Mrs Stirling.
as heretofore stated in The Star. first took
the matter up last week. and the publica-
ton of her mission in The Star created
an with property interests in Florida. She
has been greatly afraid that when her
visit to the authorities in Washington Is
learned she will be made to suffer. She
says that murder Is small crime in many
portions of southern Florida. and that ar
son and similar crimes are frequently re-
sorted to as punishment for talking about
what is going on.
1t Is regarded as foreSone that the Pres1-
dent will instruct the Attorney General to
have a thorough and prompt Investigation
made He will probably direct that the Sc
cret service furnish several detectives to
look into the camps. The trouble about
successful outcome of the Investigations is
that the people who are held in slavery are
of low order of intelligence. incapable of
giving much assistance to detectives or
others.

Municipal Beauty and Business Pros
perity.

To the Editor Of The Star:
The condensed report in The Star of my re-
marks at the Greater Washington train din
ner on Saturday night Internationally put
me in the attitude of suggesting an irrecon-
cilable hostility between municipal beauty
and commercial development. and Of de-
claring that this physical beauty should be
safeguarded at any cost. 1 am not willing
that any one should misapprehend my po-
sition on this question Of present public In
terest or should suspect me Of throwing
cold water on the greater commercial
Washington movement. What I said on
the subject was this: Like the pretty maid
Of the rhyming Jingle. Washington may
truthfuily say that her face is her fortune;
and no one 10 so foolish as to forfeit or en-
danger this assured fortune on the chance
of gaining another through trade supren-
acy. Fortunately, however. residential at
Effectiveness is not inconsistent with com
mercial prosperity. Indeed as the expert
ences OF the southern missionary trip have
demonstrated municipal beauty Is val
liable business asset to be sefflshly safe
guarded on this account alone, II no other
reason for Its preservation existed. The
fame Of the city beautiful promotes TIE de-
velopment and success of the business and
commercial city. Washington reasonably
aspires to that combination of external at
Effectiveness and business prosperity which
makes q Paris or a Vienna"

Correct Belts.

With the departure OF the corseiet skirt
the ceinture is receiving renewed atten-
ton. and in. as Of yore, capable of making
or marring costume. Any one can ar
range ceinture in fashion. but only
the frst-ciass modiste recognizes the full
worth of bestowing the most careful at
tention on what in appearance is merely
a felded or fitted belt. The one In vogue
at present Is only shaped at the upper
edge. A very common mistake is found in
the delusion that q ceinture can be relied
upon to pull a doubtful fit into law and
order at the waist. whereas. all that can
iustifiably be expected of this adjunct is
that 1t accentuates a fit already consum-
mated. And when. oh! when will the lady
Of enabonpoint recognise that a buckle worn
at the back is the sole prerogative Of the
elegantly slim figure.
