OPERA singer ON
trial FOR MURDER

Reno, Nevada, Jan. 2S.-Mrs. Mae
Talbot, the former opera singer, now
on trial here on a charge of murder
ing her husband, took the stand to-
day and told of her marital troubfe
with Albert Talbot, the slain man.
According to Mrs. Talbot, her hus-
band often threatened to kill her
and on the night before the shooting
he gave her a fearful beating. The
next day, said Mrs. Talbot, she met
her husband for the purpose of set
tling property rights preliminary to
bringing action for divorce. An al
tercation ensued and Talbot struck
her.
The woman said this dazed her.
She remembered hearing shots and
that the pistol in her muff fell to the
floor. She then fled and did not
know that her husband had been
shot until told so later.

Price OF MEATS
ON THE DECLINE
JUST TO MAKE MATTERS EVEN
THE PRICE OF FISH HAS
BEEN BOOSTED.
General Reduction All Along the Line
PACKERS May Curtail Shipments
and Try to Regain Former Prices
Fish Go UP As Meat Goes Down.
Poultry Unchanged.
'Dv Associated Press.)

New York, Jan. 28.--There was a
widespread understanding among re-
tail butchers here today that the
western packers have decided to cut
IN nalf, their shipments of cattle to
this city, in an effort to uphold the
price of beef. The packers denied
it. On the other hand the small
dealers we're equally positive that
the packers are only '"Talking big
and that if the boycott continues
concessions in wholesale prices must
come.
The family trade in meats con-
tinues to dwindle and prices con-
tinue to fall in consequence; but as
beef goes down, fish goes up. The
following declines and appreciations
were recorded in the retail markets
here today:
Porterhouse steaks, from "a cents
a pound to 20 cents.
Sirloin steak, % cents to 18 cents.
Prime ribs of beef, % cents to 16
cents.
Pork loins, 1S cents to 16 cents.
Pork chops, 20 cents to IS cents.
Leg of mutton, % cents to Is
cents.
Mutton, IA cents to 12 cents.
FISH: Salmon steaks, 20 cents to
25 cents.
Goldfish, ~ cents to 16 cents.
Halibut, Is cents to % cents.
Blue fish, 12 cents to 20 cents.
Smelts, Is cents to "a cents.
The price of poultry remained un-
changed, but there was a sharp de-
cline in eggs.

BLACK BUTTE farmer
IS KILLED BY GAS

Bowman, Jan. 2S.-Gas in a we'll
was the cause of the death of ThOm-

Butte, on Friday of last week. Mr..
Hill was engaged in digging a we'll
and had gone down some distance
and through a small vein of coal.
On Friday, when he again started to
work, some of the neighbors advised
him to be careful, but he had been
working there before and thought
there was no danger. He went into
the well without first letting down a
lantern, and was instantly asphyxi-
ated.

gan custer proceedings against five
meat packing companies today by fill
ing quo warranto information in the
supreme court. The companies at
tackled are armour Packing company,
Morris & Co., Swift e. Co., Hammond
Packing company and the ST. Louis
Dressed Beef and Provision company.
The Armour, Swift and Morris COM
panies are charged with violating the
antitrust law and conspiracy, and the
Hammond and ST. Louis Dressed Beef
and Provision company, as subsidiary
companies of the National Packing
company, with conspiracy to control
the business in Missouri
REMOVE RIGHTS
The five companies are named In two
petitions which ask that the corpora
tions be excluded from all corporate
rights, that their licenses be forfeited,
and that all or such portions of their
property as the court may deem proper
be confiscated or in lieu thereof fine
be imposed.
Armour, Swift and Morris are
charged with having entered into a
conspiracy in 1909 to control the prices
to be paid by dealers in livestock,
poultry, butter, eggs, dairy and agri-
cultural products to control the prices
to be paid by retail and wholesale
dealers for dressed meats, and to con-
troll the prices to be paid by all whole
sale and retail dealers for poultry, but
ter, eggs, dairy and agricultural pro-
ducts and by-products from the busi-
ness of slaughtering livestock.

filed the suits, said:
SUITS FOLLOW PROBE
"The suits were filed as a result of
the examination conducted recently be-
fore former Judge Daniel w. Dillon,
who was named by the supreme court
to preside at the hearings. The Ham
mond Packing company and the St.
Louis Dressed Beef and Provision COM
pany are owned and controlled in
every detail, both in the purchase of
live stock and in the sale of dressed
and finished products, by the National
Packing company of New Jersey.
"The National Packing company, the
hearing developed. is owned by three
big packers. Swift owns seven
fifteenths, Armour six-fifteenths, and
Morris -fifteenths. While the Ma
tional owns the supposedly indepen-
dent corporations, it has been holding
them out to the public as separate
entities and Independent corporations
and competitors in business.
''In this way these corporations have
been and are used as the device in
controlling the purchase and selling

Before he had walked half block
westward toward Fifth avenue, he was
followed by q throng that blocked the
sidewalk. The sun was beating down
with an intensity that made top nat
uncomfortable. The colonel plunged for
a hatters at a speed that made the
crowd behind him run to keep up. AS
he passed the offices of the publishing
house that will bring out his forth
coming book on his hunting trip, ne
spied a tall portrait of himself, framed
in red. white and blue.
That's dandy. isn't it?" was his
