Members In Savage Mood.

Washington, May 20. The aftermath
of yesterdays fillibustering, ending in
the arrest and hailing before the House
of number of members, in order to
complete quorum, came in the House
of Representatives today on the approx
al of the journal.
A number of the members, who were
arrested" by the sergeant-at-arms
during the call of the House last night,
were still in savage mood today when
the House convened, and they had per-
sonal reasons to assign why they were
absent on roll call.
Throughout the whole of the discus
sion, which was precipitated by the
motion to approve the journal, the
Speaker of the House sat almost i'm
movable, now and then indulging in a
quiet chuckle over the discomfort of
his friends.
When his right to direct the issuance
of the writ of arrest was attacked, the
Speaker, following an exposition of the
rules, terminated further argument by
asserting that 'the gentlemen had been
legally arrested"
The rules of the House, as to the
presence of members, were brought
home to the members and during the
rest of the day, while the House had
under consideration the diplomatic and
consular bill, quorum was continuous
ly present.

PACKERS FIGHTING AMENDMENT.
If II Is not Adopted President viii Pub
Ilsh Reports on Abuses In Pack
Ina Houses.

| lUH UuuoOo'
Washington, May 28.-An important
conference was held at the White House
today regarding the meat inspection
amendment of Senator Beveridge, of
Indiana, to the agricultural appropri-
alton bill.
The President discussed the question
with Senator Carter, of Montana, and
Professor Charles P. Neill, Commission
er of Labor, who investigated certain
packing houses and later talked over the
matter with Senator Beveridge.
At the conclusion of the conference,
Senator Carter dictated the following
statement bearing upon the President s
attitude:
"The meat inspection amendment
placed on the agricultural bill has met
with opposition of the packers and their
friends, who seem to be bending every
effort to defeat it. The President says
that if the amendment is enacted into
law he will be content to remedy the
evils complained of through the law.
eff, however, the amendment is de-
feated he will feel constrained in the
discharge of his official duty to the pub
lie, to send to Congress the reports in his
possession relative to the abuses exist
ing in the packing houses. He feels that
it is better to refrain from making the
reports public, not through any regard
for the beef packers particularly, but
because an official statement of the facts
would injure the stock raisers of the
country, thus making them innocent vic
tins of line of abuses for which they
were not primarily in any sense respon-
sible.
"The only answer that can be made
to the consumers of our meats at home
and abroad will be the enactment of
law through which an efficient and suf-
ficient inspection shall be made. "

ried. The news of his sudden and tragic

Chicago, May 29.-Dr. S. R. Sayers,
Jr., of Wytheville, Va, was found dead
in room in the Gault House today and
had apparently committed suicide. An
artery in the left wrist had been sever
ed and bullet from a revolvor which
was still held in the right hand, had been
fired in the heart. Papers showing his
identity and $500 in cash were found in
the room. In registering he signed the
name "F. H. Smith, New York.
The man was well dressed and appar-
emily prosperous. He came to the hotel
Saturday afternoon went Immediately
to his room and was not seen outside of
it since that time.
The police later in the day declared
that while they were at first of the
opinion that DIR. Sayers had committed
suicide, they were not entirely satisfied
that such was the case. The wound in
the wrist was of character as would
be inflicted by a surgeons scalpel. This
instrument could not be found when 1t
was looked for, and it was then believed
possible the man had been murdered.
Detectives were at once put on the case.

Present Conditions Good and Conf
dence In Future Unshaken.
New York, Oct. 2o-Dun's weekly
review Of trade says:
The advancing season has broadened
retail trade in staple lines, notably
heavyweight clothing and footwear,
while wholesale and jobbing depart
nents make satisfactory returns, and
there is definite improvement in the
promptness with which mercantile col
lections are made
Current distribution is scarcely more
general than the demand for distant
delivery, indicating that confidence in
sthe future remains unshaken. Indus
trial operations are on an unprece-
dented scale, with especial pressure
at steel mills, car shops and shipyards.
Prices are well maintained, the gen
e'ral letel showing net gain since
the month opened.
Many voluntary advances in wages
are noted, and it is hoped that the
scarcity Of labor will be less disturb
Ing when farm work is finished. Rail
way blockades still delay shipments,
yet earnings for October thus far sur
pass last years by To per cent.
