years acquaintance, Fred Erne of Chi
caSo, aged % years, lies dying at the
Emergency hospital as the result of II
vicious assault near the 500 depot Fri

for his friend. who was without funds.

said. the latter asked him if he still
had his money. He pulled out his pock-
etbook. whereupon, he says, he was
grabbed by the throat and dealt muir
derous blow over the head with some

Porcelains Worth q Million.

Edgar Gorer Of London got through
the custom house with over S1,0OO,OOO
worth of rare old Chinese porcelains,
which he is exhibiting at the Hotel
Plaza for a couple of weeks. The other
100 odd pieces are now being exhibited
at the hotel. They are culled from the
masters of the old porcelain who sup
piled the tableware for the royal house,
hold during the Sixteenth, Seventeenth
and Eighteenth centuries. Because the
Chinese have lost the art these pieces
have risen in value. One plate, worth
about $15 to the Emperor Chi Yung, Is
now considered cheap at $4,000. Mr.,
Gorer says it is acknowledged to be-
the finest plate in the world. He thinks
J. Pierpont Morgan will be interested
to see it, as he has one which has also
bsen acknowledged to be remarkable.
Others pieces which may interest some
American collectors can be picked up
for $4,000 or $4,000.

CONSPIRACY IN NEW YORK.
Chicago Meat Packers Charged with AT
tempt to Control Trade.

CHICAGO. H., Feb. 5.-The depart
ment of justice has secured evidence
tending to prove an attempt on the part
of the Chicago meat packers, acting
through the jOinty-owned National
Packing company to suppress competi-
ton in the supply of fresh meats in New
York city. 1t is said that agents of the
government have obtained proof to show
that the stock of the New York Butch
ers association which within the last
two years was organized by retail mar
ket owners in that city as an independ-
cnt packing enterprise, has been bought
up almost entirely by the National Pack
ing company. The New York association
established its own abbatOir and with
an increased business proceeded to make
it's customers independent of the Chica-
90 packing concerns. The stock was
held in large part by retail dealers, but
considerable other capital had been EN-
ployed in its organization. Gradually
brokers. now believed to have acted for
the National Packing company began
buying up the shares. In a few days
a number of witnesses will be brought
to Chicago from New York to prove
this claim.

GUEST AT AMERICAN COLLEGE,

ROME, Feb. 7.-Charles Warren Fair
banks, former vice president OF the
United States, prefers addressing an
American Methodist congregation to hav-
ing an audience with Pope Plus y.
He made this preference known when
the Vatican sent him notice that if he
persisted in speaking to the American
MethodistS here he would have TO forego
the audience which had been appointed
for today.
The incident which finally operated
to prevent Mr.. Fairbanks reception at
the Vatican occurred after a previous
delicate situation had been adjusted by
the use Of much tact. Mr. Fairbanks,
in addition to his desire to be received
by the Pope, wished TO pay his respects
10 the King Of Italy. Situations similar
to this are not lufrcquent and extreme
care has to be exercised by those upon
whom the task Of arranging the audi
cunc~ falls, in order to avoid offending
the su~ccptibilitIes on either side.
Vatican Cancels Audience.
By a tactful arrangement, Mr.. Fair
banks audience with King Victor En-
manuel was fixed for Saturday, and that
with the Pope for today, but when every
thing seemed satisfactorily planned, the
Vatican suddenly announced that it
would be impossible for his holiness 10
receive the former vice president If he
carried out his announced intention to
speak in the American Methodist church
here. because the Mcthodists had been
active in PROSECUTING among the Catho-
lies,
Negotiations Immediately were begun
with a view to avoiding any unpleasant
ness, and a situation which might give
rise t. misconceptions, and IN these ne
gOtiatlons prominent Vatican officials
cXertcd every influence to remove the
difficulties which so unexpectedly hal
presented themselves TO Mr.. Fairbanks
audience with the Pope.
Fairbanks Chooses Methodsts.
But Mr.. Fairbanks finally declared
that, although he was animated by Il
strong desire TO pay his respects to the
head of the Catholic church, whose fol
lowers had played such an important
part as good American citizens, he could
not withdraw from his promise 10 de-
liver an address before the American
Methodist church.
Mgr Kennedy, rector of the American
college, gave a dinner at noon in honor
of Mr.. Fairbanks. The hall was deco
rated with American flags. Among those
present were IA American students the
largest body of Americans that has at
tended the institution.
Mr. Fairbanks gave toast TO the
Christian church making no distinction

Catholic church had accomplished great
things for God and humanity, while past
prcjudices against the Catholics had On
tirely disappeared for they were ever at
