and all the appu tenances.
OF course, the roast beef of old England
was the chief dish and there was English
ale with which to wash it down. The wait
ers were garbed in Elizabethan costumes
-knckerbockers red coats and white hose.
One of the novel features Of the menu was
that none OF the dishes appeared labeled
with its recognized name. but were deslg-
mated through some appropriate quotation
from Shakespeare.
All the viands were prepared under the
direction of a member of the Eccentric
club of London, famous for its dinners.
In two wheeled carts, patterned after those
used in England, whole joints of beef were
wheeled in by the walters. and the meat
carved by the attendant right at each
table.
Old English songs were sung throughout
the dinner by a quartette with choruses,
in which the company Joined. The evening
wound up with "smoke fest" for which
an English church warden pipe and a
silver plated tobacco box filled with English
tobacco were presented to each guest.
The early part of the day in the conven-
tion of the American Meat Packers asso-
citation was devoted to informal discussion
of the meat inspection law on machinery

railroad companies which have just been
issued The roads are the Atchison. Topeka
& Santa Fe, the Wabash and the Chesa-
peake g. Ohio. President Edward p. Ripley
OF the Atchison says of rate reductions:
''It Is hoped and believed that the pub
lie will soon realize that its recent attitude
toward railroad companies in general has
not been just 10 their stockholders and
bondholders. and also that unless the con-
fldence OF investors in the security and Sta
bility OF railway Investments is restored 1t
will be impossible to obtain the additional
railway facilities which are necessary to
the development OF the country"
President Ripley adds that the Atchison's =
directors have suspended various extensive
projects which were contemplated and will
limit the company's capital expenditures to
the completion of improvements to which
the company is already committed.
President George w. Stevens OF the Ches-
apeake & Ohio gays SIT would seem to be
the intention Of the communities and people
served by it's Che railroads) lines that the
revenues should not be lessened or the
credit injured by further reducing rates
that are now Inadequate 10 meet the phys-
cal requirements of the property and yield
the return which shareholders may right
fully and reasonably expect"
President Frederick A. Delano of the Wa
bash, speaking Of enactment of 2-cent pas
senger laws by Indiana, Illinois. Missouri
and Iowa. says:
while these laws have not been effective
during the fiscal year and we cannot there
fore determine ately their r1slIts, It
is quite clear that they must, If remaining
in force. seriously affect our passenger rev.
enues"

Handling Products Before
Convention.

ATLANTA, Ca, Oct. S.-The report of
tine committee on growing and handling
cotton was today laid before the interna-
tional conference OF cotton growers and
manufacturers.
The accommodations are:
First-That all planters select and save
their seed for the next crop, the object be-
ing to insure a higher standard.
Second--That all cotton be housed forty
to sixty days before being sent to the gin.
Third-That as fast possible planters
adopt gin compressing, IL would relieve
the planters in great part of the exactions
of the so-called compress trust and permit
of direct handling of the product from the
planter to the spinner.
Fourth-That the Egyptian form of bale
be adopted as fast as possible. This bale
has one more tie and one more binder than
the American bale and burlap is used in
stead of Jute in binding.
The committee on transportation recon-
mended adoption of standard type of
contract, either by the government of by
am association Of delegates from the cotton
exchanges, cotton growers and cotton spin
ners, and that classification should be made
upon grade and color alone and not upon
staple. This should embody $4,000 pounds in
stead of 100 bales net weight, that actual
tare be allowed and that the matter OF
damp cotton be regulated by uniform rules
of the governing committee.
Both reports We're discussed fully.

the Ohio OIL company, its oil products tc
to the Union Tank line. All three com
panies. the witness said, he understood

The railroad men have now been out over

WINNETT AT THE CAPITAL
Attends the National Convention
of Railway Commits
stoners.
(From a stan Correspondent. }


WASHINGTON. oct. ESPECIAL Tele-
gram.)-H. j. winnett Of Lincoln, member
of the Nebraska State Railway commits
sion. with his wife. is in Washington.
Commissioner Winnett is here to represent
Nebraska interests before the nineteenth
annual convention of the National Associa-
tion of Railway commissioners of the
several states, whose deliberations began
today in the board room of the United
States Interstate Commerce commission.
Mr.. Winnett said that he had not come
prepared to present any features, did not
expect to deliver an address to the con-
vention, but was merely on hand TO learn
or rather to absorb any suggestions which
might appear to him to be of use or peril
nent to shippers in his section. The matter
Of most interest to the representative from
Nebraska is anything that may affect the
prices on grain shipments This is a para
mount issue and Mr. winnett while in
clined to say very little, is evidently on
the alert to seize anything along that line
that may come under his notice during
the general discussions which will ensue
during the three days session OF the as
sociation.
Iowa is represented by H. ]. Ketcham.
member of the Board of Railway commits
sioners, and d. N. Lewis its secretary.
Back of this meeting is the vital question
whether state legislatures have gone too
far in accentuating the action of the last
congress, and whether laws by the several
states regulating rates have been wisely
considered.
Chief Garrett of the South Omaha Fire
department, arrived today TO participate
in the annual meeting of fire chiefs, now
