Packers and Business Men Call
on President.
Say That Their Places Are All
Sanitary.
DON'T DEFEND CHICAGO
Ought to Be Dumped Into the
Lake.
Satisfied With Result of
Interview.

Washington, June IA delega-
ton of officials and business men of
st. Joseph Mo. called on the presi-
dent today to discuss with him the
meat packing industry, with special
reference to their city. The stories of
uncleanly and unsanitary conditions in
packing houses have injured the trade
Of st Joseph and the delegation de-
sired to present some facts regarding
the meat packing business of the city.
The president was informed that the
packers of St Joseph slaughter O,0O0
beeves a. day. employ 10000 workmen
and pay $4,000 600 a week to the
stock raisers of nearby states
The delegation consisted of William
E. Spratt. mayor OF st. Joseph; Louis
T. Goldin. editor OF the News and
Press; Horace G. Krakes commercial
agent of the ST. Joseph Business Mems
league; E. A. King. president of the
Bank of North St. Joseph; Judge R.
E. Culver. and Representative Frank
Fulkerson.
Mr.. Golding. who acted as spokes-
man, said that they had told the presi-
dent of the packing house conditions
in St. Joseph. we come here not as
packers" said Mr.. Golding. "but
merely DIS DuSlnSSh men interested III
the city Our packing houses We
know are cleanly. healthful and sani-
tary from one end to the other. We
know nothing of the conditions in Chi
cago packing houses. but If they are
as represented they ought to be
dumped into Lake Michigan. We
know the charges can not be made
to apply to st. Joseph packing houses.
The packing business of our city is be-
ing injured by this. and again we want
to make it clear that St. Joseph is not
guilty. We had a satisfactory talk
with the president, and he indicated
that he was very glad to have our
statement about the condition of our
packing houses. He suggested that he
might make public a list of those con-
Germs that were found on investigation
to be conducted in an unhealthful and
unsanitary manner Such a publica-
ton of course would relieve the pack
ing houses of St Joseph"

Government Having Trouble to Get

Manila, June 12.@'The average

of the Suez; the average American. IS
not, although under the improved con-
ditions he might be prevailed upon to
do So.
Thus begins the annual report OF
Executive Secretary A. w. Ferguson
to Governor General Ide. Mr.. Fergu-
son says that conditions have not i'm
proved to a great extent during the
past year. and the executive bureau
is having trouble in securing Amer
leans who Will remain in the service;
the grade OF the men coming from the
United States is below the standard
of the clerical force sent here sew
eral years ago. Although the execu-
tive bureau has been established four
years, the office force of 1877 persons
includes only five Americans. The
Filipino members are the original per-
sonnel of the office.
THE great stumbling block says
Mr.. Ferguson. "is that few Americans
intend to make the Philippines their
home or stay on the islands for an ex-
tended period. This condition" he
continues, "can be overcome by max
ing Philippine appointments a perma-
nent means of livelihood by providing
an effective system of transfer to the
federal service after a reasona bic Pc
riod of service here. It is believed
that If the conditions in respect to
transfers are arranged as suggested
there will be no difficulty in securing
Americans well qualified for the ordi-
nary duties performed in the higher
grades of the service. 1t is believed
to be useless to try and influence men
to come out here unless something
permanent is offered them at the ex-
piration Of a reasonable time.
'sAs I am convinced that a perma-
nent civil service under present oondi-
tions is entirely out of the question
it is suggested that to secure the serv-
ices of competent men for a limited
period each American be given the

WANT .DEWEY'S PLACE.
Quite List of Lawyers Already in the
Field.

There promises to be an interesting
contest for election to the office of su-
preme- court reporter to succeed the
late T. E. Dewey. Candidates and their
friends have been getting busy today,
and indications are that there viii be a
good many more candidates in the field
before the matter is settled.
Among those whose names are under
consideration are the following;
B. F. Simpson, Olathe.
Charles F. Spencer, Topeka.
Harry G. Larimer, Topeka.
c. A. Lewis. Phillipsburg.
F. A Austin, Topeka.
L. J. Graham, Topeka.
The Office of supreme court reporter is
very desirable one, for 1t pays ST. 500
a year and the duties are such that a
lawyer can attend to them and at the
same time handle considerable private
practice If he is so inclined. For that
reason a number of Topeka lawyers
who feel themselves competent for the
work of reporter would be glad to get
the place. 1t is a job which is likely
to last about as long as the man hold
ing it desires to stay, unless there
should be a complete change in the per
sonnet of the court.
On Wednesday the Justices begin their
regular daily consultations, and the
probability is that at these consulta
tions the question Of electing a success
sor to Mr.. Dewey will receive prompt
attention.
The candidate who at present seems
to be making the biggest fight for the
place is Judge Simpson of Olathe. A
strong delegation is here today from
Olathe and Paola, interviewing ebch
Justice of the supreme court individual
ly, and urging Judge Simpsons candi-
dacy. Among those here from Olathe
are Judge Pickering and MessTs. Johns
ton, Burris and Burgess, and from Pa
ola are Barney Sheridan, Judge Sheldon
and others.
Charles F. Spencer. one of the other
candidates, is former city attorney of
Topeka, and formerly a partner of Judge
Mcfarland. He is well known in Tope-
ka and Shaw wnee county politics. Harry
G. Larimer and z. A. Austin are also
well known in Shawnee county politics.
Lou J. Graham was assistant to T. E.
Dewey, and there is said to be strong
sentiment in favor of his election to fill
the vacancy created by the death of his
chief.
C. A. Lewis of Phillipsburg was prom
inent1y mentioned as a candidate for the
office of district Judge in his district to
succeed A. c. T. Getger, but failed to
get the nomination.
Judge B. F. Simpson is the oldest poll
tician IN the list of candidates so far.
He has not been as active in state poll
tics Of late years. however, as he was
some time ago.

MRS. COREY APPLIES.
Wife of Steel Trust Hfagnate Files Her
Suit.

Reno. New. June 12.-Mrs William
Ellis Corey, wife of the president of the
United States Steel corporation, this
morning filed petition in the second
district court of Nevada at this place
for an absolute decree Of divorce
The petition Of Mrs. Corey is brief
reciting that she was married to Corey
on December 15 1888, and that he aban-
doned her about May 1, 1905. She asks
for a decree upon the ground of deser-
ton and requests that the custody of
their minor son be given to her
The petitioner has obtained three at
torneys of Reno to prosecute her case
and Corey will be represented by Pitts
burg and Nevada counsel. Sardis sum
merheld, representing Corey, stated
this morning that he did not know
whether his client would oppose the
petition or not. 1t is currently stated
that negotiations are in progress which
viii result in Corey giving his consent
TO the divorce and his settlement upon
his wife of an Independent fortune.
The attorneys declined to discuss this
phase of the matter.
Mrs Corey is attended while in Reno
by the mother and sister of the de-
fendant. She declines to see newspa-
per men and pays no social visits.

No Evidence That Emperor Is

st. Petersburg June 12.-The
mobiles congress now in session here
has practically endorsed the govern
ment's agrarian programme having
declared itself against the forced ex-
preparation of land and proposing only
two methods for the rel1er of the peas
ants. These are purchases of land
through the peasants banks and
transmigration to Siberia, especially
commencing the latter and recon-
mending the granting of free land in
Siberia and exemption from taxes for
a period Of years. The congress also
endorsed the governments proposition
for a dissolution of the commune sys-
tenn, where it is desired.
An influential but small minority,
headed by Count Uvaroff Of Saratoff.
protested against the selfish attitude of
the nobility, urging unavailingly that
the large landlords. if they wished to
escape from utter ruin, must cede
something to the peasantry and at
least consent to the. appropriation of
the surplus estates.
