FRANTIC MIDNIGHT M0BS
SHOUT GOODBY TO 7. R.
Remarkable Scenes Attend De-
parture of Roosevelt from
Hungarian Capital

BUDAPEST, April 10. - Theodore
Roosevelt and his son Kermit left here
tonight by the Orient express for
Paris, where they will arrive Thurs
day morning
Instead of crossing Switzerland, their
route runs north through the Austrian
Alps, and through southern Germany,
entering France at AVricOurt.
Hundreds cheered at the front of the
hotel when he left this morning for
a visit to the government stock farm
at the Babotna, where the breeding
of Arab horses is carried on, and
thousands were massed about the sta
tion when he returned at o'clock to-
night.
The packed streets echoed the cries
as he passed and this demonstration
was thrice repeated later in the even
ing in front of the hotel as he left for
the. station, where another frantic null
titude had waited till midnight to see
him off.
Mr.. Roosevelt greatly enjoyed his
visit to the breeding farm. The former
president and women of the party, in
Guiding Countess Szechenyi, who was
Miss Gladys Vanderbilt, fed the horses
with sugar
Later the party visited the brood
mares, where Col. Roosevelt was
shown a tiny thoroughbred foaled
today. 1t was filly, but the colonel
christened it Roosevelt"
Count Szechenyi, who had a narrow
escape from serious injury from the
whirllng blade of fan on board the
train on the trip TO the breeding farm
suffered no i'll effects tonight. The
sharp blade grazed his head. Another
half inch and it would have cleaYed
the skull.

CHARGES PACKERS WITH
FICTITIOUS COMPETITION

ST LOUIS, April 19.-Hgh prices Of
meat are due partly TO fictitious COM
petition between live stock buyers em-
ployed by the Swift. Armour and Nor
ris interests and by the National Pack
ing company, which is controlled by
those interests, according to testimony
this afternoon by A. n. Benn, vice
president Of the St Louis Dressed Beef
and Provision company Mr.. Benn tes-
titled in the investigation Of the pack
ing companies being conducted by At
torney General Major.
The st. Louis company Is owned and
controlled by the National Packing
company according to testimony ad
duced yesterday. To this competition
between concerns ostensibly rivals, but
really under the same control, the wit
ness specifically attributed the recent
price of $11.15 for hogs.
Benn stated buyers ostensibly repre-
sentng the National company, but in
fact representing the Armour-Swift-
Morris interests frequently bid against
the buyers directly employed by these
interests, and thus force up the price Of
meat. The benefit of this policy is eX
planned by the Investigators as prOduc-
ing an illusion of competition in the
eyes Of the public.

Associated Press1

AUGUSTA, Me-, April 19.-The early
retirement of Eugene Hale from the
United States senate was positively an
nounced here today The news came
in confidential telegram from Wash
ington.
Senator Hale. in a letter to Bryon
Boyd, chairman of the state central
committee, received tonight, announces
his retirement and gives his reasons.
In the letter Senator Hale not only
referred to the condition of his health,
but called attention to the fact he
had been given what no other man in
Maine had received, FIVE unanimous
nominations for continuous terms in
the senate, and it did not seem fitting
for him to make a personal contest
for the succession"
Senator Hale took occasion to predict
that SHOULD the Democrats carry the
next house of representatives, that
within ninety days after the opening OF
the next congress a free trade tariff
bill will be sent to the senate, in which
Names principal industries and in
terests will be marked for slaughter.
The letter to Mr. Boyd, dated Wash
ington, April is. follows:
Your notice that the state commit
tee requests me to preside at the June
convention has been received, and
fully appreciate the honor and conf
dence the request implies; but II is moi
at all certain the session of congress
will end before July, therefore the COM
mittee should elect some other pre-
siding officer. Besides this, II is not
certain l will be in Maine at the time
and l take this occasion to say that
I decline to engage in any conflict foi
the senatorship.
FIVE UNANIMOUS NOMINATIONS
Longer public service is not neces-
sary to my peace Of mind, and the
prospect of retirement has in it little
disagreeableness to me. The party ha:
| given me what no other man in Maine
has ever received, five unanimous nom
nations for five full continuous terms
| in the senate, and it seems uniting
for me TO make a personal contest fol
the succession.
"The year will not find me either g
grumbler or discomfort. My desire Is
to see Governor Gernald elected with
a good majority with a Republican leg
islature at his back. 1t is Furthermore
important that Maine should send foul
Republican representatives to the mex
congress to avoid what may be the
critical trial day for all Names indus
tries and business prosperity.
SHOULD the Democrats carry the
next house of representatives, within
ninety days after the opening of tbs
next congress, a free tariff bill will bt
sent to the senate in which Names
principal industries will be marked fol
slaughter Whoever recalls the situa-
ton under the Morrison bill, and latel
under the German Wilson bill will full
ly realize this. This disaster to Maint
can only be prevented by the Republi'
cans retaining control Of the mex
house of representatives.
ITO this end a full Republican dele
cation from Maine in the next con
gress will be needed more than ever be
fore, and to secure this all my sympa-
thy and efforts are at the command o.
the party"

Mayor Alexander, when asked for
statement. said:
Los Angeles is to be congratu
lated on securing an asset that
she can well be proud of. | be-
lieVe the power development will be
one of the greatest things this city has
ever seen in that line. for it means a
steady income for the city that will
take care of the bond issues and in
time leave a handsome surplus for
our other needs The development of
the harbor which is assured by the
bonds voted today will put us in the
front rank as a harbor city and means
millions to our business interests"
City Attorney Leslie r. Hewitt said:
THE large vote in favor of the bonds
means that the city can redeem The
pledges it made to itself and the city of
San Pedro. When the aqueduct bonds
were voted we promised Los Angeles
people that the power of the aqueduct
would be developed, and when San
Pedro was consolidated with Los An
geles we promised that bonds would be
voted to develop the harbor. Both
these projects are of immense value TO
this city from a commercial point OF
view"
A. p Fleming, secretary of the har-
Dor commission, said:
1.-The election provided a great exhi-
bition of municipal patriotism and Of
Los Angeles spirit, the spirit that does
things. 1t has been very gratifying
The total vote was about what 1 eX-

knew that the bonds would carry, but
we really needed much more than the
legal two-thirds vote and / am might

it. When the bill went to the senate
from the house the Los Angeles appro-
priation was only $S7S000. Senator
FLINT Increased that by 100000. He'll
make it stick, too now that we nave
proved we are in earnest. The present
hill is remarkable for its contingent
