HAYWOOD WAS TIRED
Reception al Denver Was Cur tailed Shook Hands Until
 He Was Exhausted.

Denver, Col, Aug 5.--The celebra- tion rendered William D. Haywood. the miners official recently acquitted of connection with the murder of ex- Governor Steunenberg of Idaho, on his return from Boise last night, was considerably curtailed because of the lateness of his arrival.
 Plans for great gathering of peo- pie at the station, which was to be followed by an open air meeting, were abandoned and instead com mittee of 100 labor unionists was on hand to welco4ne him. A crowd of several thousand persons, despite the lateness of the hour, was also on hand.
 When Haywood stepped from the train, supporting his invalid wife, a great cheer went up from the crowd. A rush for the gates was made and the police were compelled to use force to make them step back so that the gates could be opened. A space less thas three feet wide was opened. As Haywood walked up this file hun dreds of lands were stretched to- wards him, SSut his solicitude for his wife caused h,m to resist the desire to grasp the many hands extended. Continuous cheering greeted him and kept his face wreathed in smiles.
 When Haywood saw his wife safe- ly seated in carriage, he stood on the rear seat of the open carriage and shouted cheer after cheer as he waved his hat. The crowd joined with him and for several minutes the roar of cheers continued. Half a hundred men started to unhitch the horses and attach rope, so that they could drag the conveyance up the street. Haywood requested that they forego this expression of re- gard, and they desisted. It took sev- eral minutes to clear the streets. Then the horses pulling Haywood's carriage started away at brisk trot.
 Haywood, on arrival at the AL bany hotel, responded to demands for speech by saying that he would tell them all about it later,' and asked to be allowed to retire for the night. Haywood referred to pre- diction that he said mine owners had made that he would come back to Colorado in pine box.
 ''I am very much alive, you see," he said. This great reception Is the hapipest moment of my life. My cup of happiness would be complete if Mover and Pettibone were by my side. One thing I am convinced of, and the last eighteen months have definitely taught me, is that when unions stand together you cannot break them."
 Haywood then shook hands with the people until exhaustion com pelled him to quit.

MEAT PRICES WILL CONTINUE
TO SOAR SAYS SEC. WILSON
Head of Agricultural
Advance Due to NJ
Raise Fewer Cattle

Washington, D! c., June I'll In
the opinion Of Secretary Of Agricul-
ture Wilson the recent increase in the
price of meats is entirely natural, and
even further advance In prices may
be expected. That the cost Of meats
Is greater today than ever before is
conceded but Secretary Wilson be-
lieves that American prosperity is at
the bottom of the situation. The PEG.
pie are eating more meat and the far
nlers are not raising as many cattle
as formerly.
Naturally, then" said the secretary
"the prices of meats have gone UP just
as the prices of everything else have
gone up, and will go higher.
Then, too," the secretary continued,
lion immigrants. This year there will
be hundreds Of thouaands more. THESE
people soon find work. Meat was a
luxury to them at home, but In Amer
lea, making more money than they
ever dreamed of, they want to live
well. and they want to eat meat.
Export Trade is Enormous.
There is also an enormous export
trade, which cuts great hole in the
supply Last year we sent abroad more
than $323,000,000 worth Of animals.
meats and animal products.
NOW, with all this constantly In.
creasing demand for meat. the price
is going up because there is not an in.
crease In the supply Of cattle In pro.
portion to the increased demand. The

Department Declares
ltural Causes Farmers

farms and ranges are not increasing
their supply Of cattle proportionately.
It costs more to raise cattle now.
The price Of farm labor has risen enor-
mously The price of grain has gone
up and the farmer can make more mon
ey raising grain or hay or other crops
that he can harvest with labor saving
machinery than he can raising and
fettening cattle for the market. Possi-
bly,, too, not SO many cattle reach the
markets now because rigid inspection
under the meat inspection law makes
1t useless to senS to market cattle that
formerly might have passed"
The figures Of the bureau of statis-
tics Of the treasury department fully
bear out this statement of Secretary
Wilson. Summing up for four weeks,
the receipts Of cattle at Chicago dur.
inE May, 1906, were nearly 10000
more head than for May of this year.
Competition Fixes the Price. =.
It was suggested to Mr.. Wilson that
the price ct meats was due chiefly to
the determination of the meat packers
OF Chicago to SO far increase prices as
to make the public pay for the losses
suffered by the packers as a result Of
the meat inspection law.
II don't think there is anything in
that" said the secretary. AS a matter
Of fact. Chicago does not fix the price
Of cattle. New York and the east have
their buyers at Chicago and $500 COM
Iete too sharply for Chicago alone to
fix the prices"
