Chicago, Dec. 1S.-"The high cost
of living" question is to find a par
tial solution in the exclusion of the
'"beef trust from competing for Eng
fish army contracts and the antfci-
pated boycotting of products of the
United. States trust by the general
public of that isle.
If the packers fear that Russia, Ger
many, italy,. France and Japan will
follow the precedent established by
England is founded upon fact, meat
and meat by-products will take a de-
cided slump and the workingman will
be the triumphant winner, with the
stock raisers of the country-not the
packers-holding the small end Of the
horn. "' s' -" "ft ~
The law of supply and demand is
the basis for the prediction of tho
packers and board of trade men. They
declare that if the American exporta-
ton of meat and by-products is cut
off and the packers are forced to cater
to the domestic trade alone, the price
of meat can only be held up by
terrific display of physical force"
To stem the slump would be as fu-

Miss Conrad Goes Into Violent Hye

Millionaire Was Net Told
...A a,tu.,t y News. r.-,, N '.r.

New York, Dec. ia verdict OF
not guilty, was returned freeing Lii
liam Graham and Ethel Conrad of Grim
inal charges on which they had been
held since last June for shooting the
millionaire sportsman and hotel pro
prietor, w. E. D. Stokes.
The girls were tried on an indict'
ment Of three counts, the first charg'
ing an attempt to murder Stokes. OF
consideration Of this count, however,
the Jurors were, relieved by Justice
Marcus, at the request Of the district
attorney The court restricted the
jury to the second and third counts,
which charged, respectively. assault
in the first degree, with intent to kill,
and assault in the second degree with
intent to do bodily injury. -
When the girls faced the foreman
he announced the words not guilty"
Miss Conrad cried THANK Cod" and
went into violent Mysteries. She sank
to the counsel table, then jumped up
again, shrieking and tearing, her hair
and throwing her arms about wildly.
1t was surprise to the spectators, for
Miss Conrad had shown much the
better nerve of the two defendants
throughout the trial. On, the other
hand, Miss Graham, who continually
wept during the trial, and sobbed the
more when she heard the verdict, re-
covered herself when she saw her
companion, 30 affected, and acted as
the comforter to her younger friend.
Prosecutors Argument.
The summing up argument which
Assistant District Attorney Buckner
made against the girls was a, dramatic
feature Of the late session of court.
He flourished the revolvers with which
the girls had shot Stokes and 'punctu.
ated his recital of the shooting and
his scorching denunciation of both
Stokes and the girls by frequent snaps
OF the hammer. '4't''
Stokes was shot when he called at
the apartment of the show girls on the
night of June Z. He said he had gone
there at the invitation Of Miss Conrad
with the expectation of getting letters
he had written to Miss Graham and
that when he got there the girls laid
before him a demand for money with
a flourish of revolvers and threat
to- shoot. The girls declared that
Stokes attacked them and that he
seized their reyolvers long enough to
fire two shots, and they shot also, sew.
eral bullets taking effect in the mil
lionaires legs.
More favorable news Of Mr.. Stokes
condition was given out. DR.. Joseph
Thornley,, the attending physician, said
his patient vas progressing favoirably
and tSawell on the road to recovery.
MI. Stokes is ignorant of the &C.
