s.Wealthy Americans give infinite

''The reason the servant girl CUES
ton is so difficult to settle is this: It
has been such a short time since many
American housewives were servants
themselves that they try to forget this

the servant and the servants comfort.
seThe only way, to my mind. to bring
about an ideal condition of housekeep-

boy and girl on a course of cooking in

TO INVESTIGATE PACKERS
Grand Jury Will Inquire Into Charges
That National Packing Com
pany Is Combine.

Washington.-The government is
preparing to summon the Chicago beef
trust to the bar of Justice.
Criminal prosecution is contemplate
ed and If the plans do not go astray
some of the men responsible for the
rapidly increased cost of living will be
landed behind the bars.
This information was obtained here
in connection with an announcement
that the attorney general has received
a full report of the investigation
which he recently ordered into the re-
Iations existing between the National
Packing Company of Chicago and
Swift & Co., Armour & Co. and Morris
& Co., the three concerns which joint
ly control the National Packing Com
pany.
Within a couple of weeks, or as soon
as the details can be arranged, the at
torney general will institute grand
jury proceeding in Chicago, the intent
of which is to ascertain whether or
not the National Packing Company is
a combination in restraint of trade un-
der the Sherman antitrust law. Inas-
much as the grand jury proceedings
are only resorted to where criminal
proceedings are contemplated, the in
ference is plain, though Mr.. Wicker
sham will make no statement that his
hope is to land somebody in Jail.
That the beef trust is alarmed over
the outlook is also evident, because 1t
is known that agents Of the trust
learned that report on its. operations
had been received here in advance Of
the information being made public. 1t
was the fact that the trust had got
hold of this information that brought
out the story of the contemplated pro-
ceedings.

ALLIANCE OF
BIG IMPORTERS
And Federal Officials Shown by Latest
Probe of Customs
Frauds.

New York-Three federal officials,
one Of them in highly important po-
sition in Washington, are involved in
the most sensational charges that have
been made in connection with customs
frauds since Richard Parr started a
nationwide inquiry by his discovery
Of the little steel spring in the sugar
trusts scales.
These men will be hit when a fed
eral grand jury, which is now in ses-
sion at New Orleans, reports findings
regarding new series of frauds that
IS under investigation there.
Piecemeal indictments will not be
returned in this case, it is asserted,
and all the persons under suspicion,
from the "man higher up" who is the
Washington official, to the least em-
2loye of the government and the i'm
porters themselves, will be placed on
he defensive at the same time.
The list of defendants will include,
t is declared, the Washington official,
1T least two federal officials in New
York city, two officials at New Or
cans, the two members of a firm Of
Importers and the chief clerk of the
firm affected.
Conspiracy to defraud the govern
nent and conspiracy to obstruct JUS
ice are the charges under considera-
ion by the New Orleans grand jury.
The frauds which are laid at the
ioors of the men against whom testi-
mony has been given have caused the
oss of hundreds of thousands Of dol
ars to the government.
