CHEAPER MEAT WITH
LOWER TARIFF


democratic congress will consider
will be the advisability Of placing
meat on the free list If beef does
not go on the free list the tariff on
this commodity will at least be
greatly reduced.
The following facts make such
action imperative:
! The packing business in the
UnitedStates is controlled largely
by a trust.
The firms in the trust as we'll as
such independent concerns as
Schwartzchild & Suzbcrgcr, have
been making profits of from 20 to
as per cent on their preferred
stock for the last several years,
while advancing prices every so
often by agreement.
3. The legal department of the
republican administration has pre-
tended for the last ten years that it
has been endeavoring to break up
the beef trust, but has utterly
failed.
4. The tust is paying the trans
portat;on charges on American
beef to London, and there selling
it for two cents less a pound than
in the United States.
S. The beef trust docs rot
regulate its selling prices by its
buying prices, frequently raising
the price of beef to the consumer
while paying less tn the farmer.
The department of justice has
ong taken the position that the
beef trust IS in existence in viola
ton of the law, yet it has either
not desired to dissolve the trust or
has been incompetent to do it.
This failure to get relief for the
consumers would indicate the only
way left lies in a reduction of the
tariff on beef. Both Australia and
South America stand ready to give
us cheaper beef this country will
only lower the tariff.
Commenting on the impossibility
of securing the United States as a
market for Australian meats ard
dairy products, Arthur Kiddman,
Australians export king, said:
II have spent six months in the
states considering that possibility.
The only thing in the way is the
tariff. If congress will let down
the barriers bit, so that we can
come. in, we can givc.bccf. delivered
by the carcass at the wharf for six
cents a pound, mutton for six,
lamb for eight and butter for 23
to "a cents, exclusive of duty.
And better butter, by the way,
than you can get here by paying
the very highest prices"
Thousands of poor in the United
States are impoverished by the
high cost of living. Many cannot
afford to eat meat more than
once or twice week. Yet here
stands far-of Australia ready to
furnish meat at six cents. n pound.

Benefits to Be Theme.
Anacostia Must Fight
For Free Delivery

Replies having been received from the
United States Express Company and the
Adams Express Company to the effect
they will not voluntarily extend their
free delivery service to Anacostia, the
Anacostia Citizens Association will
have to start formal proceedings before
the Interstate Commerce Commission II
q change in existing conditions is Sc
cured.
When a complaint was filed with the
commission against the express COM
panies, the telegraph companies, and
the transfer companies, asserting that
the Anacostia people were being dis
eliminated against, notice was sent to
each of the companies interested.
The Anacosta Citizens Association
served notice that If the CONGESTION was
not granted 1t would start formal pro
ceedings to have a change ordered by
the commission. This will be necessary
because of the answers OF the express
companies.
1t was stated at the Offices of the
commission this afternoon that the
United States Express Company had
replied that a free delivery service
would mean an additional expense of
5000 monthly and that the business
did not warrant 1T.
The telegraph companies have until
Saturday to tell what they will be
willing TO do with reference to free
delivery.

ARB|TRAL TREATIES
NOW FACE STORMY
TINE IN SENATE
Pronounced Opposition Is
Manifested In Some
Quarters.

The arbitration treaties with Great
Britain and France are not going to be
permitted to go through the Senate
without much discussion. The hope of
Secretary Knox that they will be rati-
fed this session appears to have but
little basis.
Senators who talked about the situe-
ton today said the treaties undoubtedly
would come in for n lot OF debate.
The treaties have much Senate sup
port, but en- the other hand there is
Is going to make trouble for the treati1s
is the German-American feeling with
respect 10 England.
Position of Germans.
It was said today by a leading men,
Der Of the foreign relations committee,
that the German-Americans didn't like
the treaty with England and that the
Irish were opposed to it. He thought
the Senate would go slow before it gave
offense to those two great elements of
this country's population.
The view of the friends of Germany
and a large share at least of the peo-
pie in this country who came from Ger
many, is that the agreement with Eng
land would tend to leave that country
with a freer hand to strike at Ger
many. In less degree, this feeling
prevails with respect to France.
A phase of the treaty with Great
Britain that will be most seriously in
spected in the Senate. relates to just
how it will affect the future relations
of this country and japan. 4 feeling
exists In the Senate that the English
alliance with Japan is of more weight
with England than the arbitration
agreement and that in a crisis with
Japan this country might find the arbl-
tration agreement of no practical use
in keeping out of complications with
England.
Benefits to Be Theme.
In short, the treaties will give rise in
the Senate to consideration of Americas
international relations on the broadest
scale, and the question will be asked
whether any benefit is to be derived by
this country by arbitration treaties
which its automatically isolated posi-
ton do not give it.
On the other hand, Republican politi-
cal leaders are already preparing to
make great capital in the next cam
paign out of the arbitration agreements.
