PACKERS TO ENTER
ARGENTINA TRADE

Chicago. May 31.-While Chicago
packers were answering the statements
made In the report Of George Young,
second secretary of the British en-
bassy at Washington, by pointing to
the recent report of the parliamentary
COMMITTEES as an entire refutation OF
any charge that the socalled American
beef trust Is trying to corral the Eng
ltsh trade, there comes a special dis,
patch from Boston which states that
Swift & Co. and Armour & Co. are,
making arrangements to enter the,
packing business In Argentina on an
extensive scale.
It is interesting to note that the par,
ltanentary committees report stated
there was reason to believe tina the
big American companies intended to
enter the Argentina field. According to-
the rumors in Boston. Swift & Co. in
tend to go into the cattle and packing
business in Argentina on a great scale,
and 1t is sale that Armour & Co.'S
big bond issue means that
Will wage war In South America with
its Chicago rival.

One report is to the effect that tho
Swifts intend to put on 10 steel steam,
ships, to cost $1,000 900 each, between.
Argentina and London, and
the trade In the latter place.
The sale of S4,60O,0OO Swift estate
notes may have something to do, tndt-
rectly, with the financing of the plan,
though this Is only a surmise.
There is not much Armour informa-
ton here, but 1t is the belief that the
company will go into South America
In an extensive way, since fine cattle
are much cheaper there than in the
United States.

"CARM EN-"

Carmen" heartless, tragic gypsy maid

Bizetis greatest work, was the pres f1tl-
tion of Saturdays afternoon performance
at the Colonial theatre. IN this opera,
one of the best Of the modern French re
pertory the international Grand Opera
company gave another finished produe-
ton The audience was not large, but
was enthusiastic to a degree.
From the playing of the Havanaise, the
Carmen motive, in the overture to its last
passionate strains in the tragic denOue-
ment it is the Carmen gypsy temperament
that inspires the music. The color or the
work is Spanish and much of the we'll
notably the TOreadOT song and the HaVa-
naise- The OrchestratiOn IS the specldl
feature of this opera and there are rev
great arias. Except in the third act the
vocal parts are plainly inferior TO the or
chestral treatment 1t is, then, TO the fine
orchestra of the company that mucn OF
the beauty of the production is due. The
overture and interluoes are usually IN
portant and exceptionally well rendered
The overture is short but very brilliant,
square The assembled soldiers and street
lads are heard in chorus and then Carmen
in "Ah Love. Thou Art q Wilful Bird,
and again in Near by the Rampant Of
Seville" Madame Therry, who sang the
role. was in splendid voice. Life. fire, dis
dain in action and song made her a gen
uine gypsy queen. Her dramatic soprano
ran the gamut from light, disdainful mu-
sic to the heavier arias when her tones
were those of the cello and horn.
The second act music is notable in this
role for ''Ah When Of Gay Guitars the
Sound" and for the ToreadOr Aria with
You to Drink Will Be a Pleasure" in
which EscsmillO describes the bull fight.
This part was sung with great effect by
Arcangeli and he was heartily applauded
