Tariff Settlement with Germany Urged
BY Chamber of Commerce.
Washington, Jan. 26.--In alarm one,
the critical turn in the tariff contro-
versy between the United States and
Germany, appeals from chambers of
commerce and boards of trado of seve-
raj cities were made to the national
board of trade in session here, urging
that body to recommend that the
American government recede from its
position that American beef must be
admitted to Germany. Resolutions
presented to the national body main
tain there can be no advantage in in
sisting on German market for Amer
ican beef, because the consumption is
increasing at such a rate as soon to
command all the supply. 1t is pointed
out that the Agrarian party, in control
of the Reichstag, has stood for the
principle that farmers of Germany
must supply the beef, and that the i'm
perial government could not admit the
American product, If it would.
A commission to settle the dispute is
suggested. Many delegates, bringing
from their home cities demands for an
investigation into the high cost of liv-
ing, have made that subject foremost.
The national body today decided to ap-
point special committee of five men
to determine the. reasons for present
prices.
In his opening address to the nation
al board, the president, Frank ]. La
lame, of Philadelphia. suggested the
possibility that by getting in touch
with the leading bodies of Germany
the organization could help the United
States department materially. He
also pleaded for the immigration of
more laborers and house servants.

WOMEN DEPosIToRs HIT.
Receivepship is Decided for Mexico
Bank-Branches Close.

Mexico City, Jan. pa receiver
ship for the United States Banking
company was decided on at meeting
of the directors this afternoon, after
the institution had failed to open its
doors for business today.
The suspension is a bitter disap-
pointment to scores of depositors who
had determined to withdraw their
funds and had gathered early to do so.
These, among whom were many wo-
men, crowded to the doors when the
notice of the suspension was posted.
Mr.. Elasser, vice president of the
bank, said that the action of the di-
rectors was taken because the bank
did not have enough money on hand to
reimburse the clearing house for yes
terdsy's business and could not prop
erly receive deposits. He believed that
the bank had more than enough assets
to pay every legitimate obligation.

United States and lnfIence the

New York, Jan. 81. - Preliminary
steps were taken today to effect the
long looked for merger of the principal
copper producers of the country into
one gigantic corporation.
In Wall street another billion-doIlar
company was frequently mentioned,
but the more conservative believed
final capitalization would be closer to
$500, 600, 600.
The Anaconda Copper Mining COM
pany of New York announced late to-
day that the board of directors yester-
day decided to call special meeting
of stockholders in Anaconda, Mont,
on March 20, to pass on proposal to
increase the capital stock from $780,
900, 600 to $3.50, 900, 900. For the
purpose of acquiring the property of
other companies located in the Butte
district"
The Amalgamated Copper company
owns 55 Eer cent. of the Anaconda
stock.
Following the merger of the Butte
properties, which include the Anal
gamated Copper company and its vari-
GUS holdings-the Anaconda Copper
company, Boston & Montana, Butte &
Boston, Washoe, Trenton and other
subsidiaries-and the North Butte and
Butte Coalition, it is expected that the
new Anaconda, with its increased cap
ital Of $3.50, 900, 900, will merge with
the Guggenheim, Haggin and other
copper interests
The corporation thus formed will
control not only the copper outpout of
the United States, but will influence
the copper market of the world.
The merger of the Butte properties
will include the Amalgamated Copper
company, Anaconda Copper company,
Boston & Montana, Butte & Boston,
Washoe, Trenton and other subsidiaries
of the Amalgamated company, the
North Butte and the Butte Coalition.
In Wall street it is commonly under
stood that John D. Ryan will head the
great copper amalgamation. This
amalgamation will include, it is said,
the Guggenheim, Haggin and Cole
Ryan properties and the Amalgamated
Copper interests. j. P. Morgan & Co.
will head the consolidation.
The Amalgamated Copper company
in statement says:
"The Anaconda company, because
of its size and its location. is regarded
as the logical company to become the
purchaser of properties of the other
companies and the step taken to call
special meeting was the first towards
submitting the matter to stockholders
of different companies for their consid-

ROYALTY OFFERED FOR COAL
John E. BaIlaine, of Seattle, Makes
Proposal for Alaska Fuel.

Proposal for Alaska Fuel.
Washington, Jan. ga new factor
appeared today to add intensity to the
already excited situation over the Alas
ka coal lands, on the eve of thhe begin
ing of the Ballinger-Pinchot investi-
cation.
John E. Ballaine, of Seattle, said to
be the largest property owner in Alas
ka, made a proposal in writing to the
senate committee on territories, of
which Senator Beveridge, of Indiana,
is chairman, offering to the govern
ment a royalty of so cents a ton on
coal mined for the lease of 5000 acres
of some of the choicest coal lands in
Alaska, in the Katalla and Matanuska
districts. Such a tonnage royalty
would net the government, Mr.. Bal
laine says, as high as $4,000, 900 a
hundred acres.
This proposal contemplates a radical
departure from past practices in the
governments disposal of the Alaska
coal lands, and it comes avowedly to do
battle with another proposal embodied
in a bill that has been prepared, but
not introduced, designed to permit the
sale or lease of such lands at rate of
Sl0 an acre.

Floods Increase and Death and Des-
tructlon Spread.
Paris, Jan. 28.-Waters Of the Seine
creep slowly higher, each inch widely
extending the area Of DESTRUCTION,
desolation and ruin.
Flood conditions had become much
worse at O'Clock this morning, partic-
ularly in the south and east sections.
In the old Latin quarter the situation
was critical.
The sidewalk Of the Quai des Gran
des Augustine collapsed and fell into
the Orleans company's tunnel. beneath,
further extending the food through the
ancient streets, practically the Rue
Jacob and around the Institute of
France.
Many sewers burst in the Twelfth
reimbursement, one of the biggest in
Paris, the whole of which is now sub
merged and has beenplunged into dark
ness on account of the breaking of
the gas mains.
Official figures Of the stage of the
water are difficult to obtain, and the
city council at stormy session to-
night charged M. Lepine, prefect of
Paris, with concealing the gravity of
the situation. The prefect defended
his attitude by saying he was governed
by the necessity of not unduly alarm
ing the people.
In the meantime terror has been
struck in the hearts of all. The crust
of the city seems ready to sink into
the fotd. Every hour drains are
bursting in new localities, causing a
subsistence of the streets, or bulge Of
several feet, while the overflow of the
surface water from the river is trans
forming the inundated districts into
formidable lakes and the streets into
canals.

congress could be induced to authorize
the building of new submarines the
would interpose no objec

Tennessee. Kentucky and other states,
tonight were arrested on warrants
charging them with, conspiracy to de-

written on the lives of persons vir-
tually certain to die within a few
months-the fraud consisting of the
impersonation of sick and incurable
persons by healthy ones employed for

1t is believed the alleged conspiracy
is far-reaching and investigation will
be made not only here, but in New AL

The general expectation that the
maximum of the flood would be reach

Seine's tributaries are rising steadily
and the report tonight is that the Seine
will be at least Is inches higher to-
morrow afternoon.
Victims of the flood number more

incalculable. Thousands of people are
hopelessly ruined.
The government has requisitioned
army and navy material to house the

The region of inundation is steadily

everything. In many cases soldiers
have been obliged to use force in COM

homes. Hundreds refused to go,

Paris the situation is rapidly becom-

INVESTIGATION WAS CORRUPT
Four Chicago Grand Jurors of 1908
Forced New Inquiry.

Four Chicago Grand Jurors of 1908
Forced New Inquiry.
Chicago, Jan. 20. - Four members
of the Federal grand jury which inves-
tigated the so-called beef "trust" in
1908 forced the government, through
Judge Landis, to start the present in
quiry, according to report current
here today.
Concerning the inception of the
present action, it is said there would
have been none, had the four dissatis-
fed j rymen not sought the aid of
Judge Landis.
This quartet, it is said, was willing
to indict the packers in December,
1908, and finally became so indignant
over the increasing price of meat that
they informed Judge Lands that they
thought it was time for the govern
ment to begin another inquiry.
The report of the four jurors alleged
that enough evidence was submitted to
the 1908 grsnd jury to warrant true
bills, and that, in spite of this, there
was a sudden apathy on the part of
those behind the prosecution. They
also said that if the investigation was
not renewed Immediately they would
make statement to the public setting
forth their theory of why the prosecu-
tion had been dropped.
Following the jurors complsi 1t.
Judge Lands is.said to have made the
investigation that resulted in the pres
ent action being started. Judge Lam
dis, it is asserted, got in touch with
the evidence submitted to the 1908
grand jury, and he is determined that
the present action shall not be nullified
by influence outside the grand jury
room.
