STICK TO THEIR HATS
Women Churchgoers Ignore Order to
Remove Headgear.

Denver, Dec. 27.-Is it altogether
irreverent for a woman to remove her
hat in church, or is it only an act of
Christian courtesy?
For several months a printed no
tice has been posted on the official
bulletin board of the Trinity Methodist
Episcopal church here requesting the
women to remove their hats as act
of Christian courtesy.
Women of the congregation gener-
ally have ignored the request and have
given several reason for their doing
so. One woman, prominent work
er in all departments of the church,
said with considerable indignation in
her tones:
'It is altogether irreverent to re-
move the hat in the house Of Cod
Another reason offered is that wom-
en- regard the wearing of hats in
church on Easter as their special and
ancient privilege. If not, said one,
why any Easter bonn cts? And If an
exception is made one day why not for

WHAT TO DO WITH REYES
May Be Tried by Military Court OF
Returned to United States.

Mexico City, Dec. 27.-The question
of the disposition of General Bernardo
of the cabinet council soon. In the
course of a conversation, Abraham
Gonzales, minister of the interior, said
in his opinion General Reyes would go
to trial before a military court. AL
though he had resigned his commits
sion as a general in the Mexican army,
Reyes was still regarded as belonging
to the army and, in the opinion OF the
minister, amenable to military law.
THE great importance attributed to
the attempted revolution of General
Reyes said the minister, ''arises from
the publicity which was given to it in
foreign countries"
May Extradite Reyes.
Houston, Tex, Dec. 27.-The trial
of Gen. Reyes in the q. S. on charges
of violating this country's neutrality
laws may follow his surrender to the
Mexican authorities. Lock Mcdaniel
United States attorney for the south
ern district Of Texas announced to-
day he would recommend to Attorney
General Wickersham that an effort
for the extradition of Reyes be made.
Son Doesn's Believe.
st. Louis, Dec. 27.-Rudolfo Reyes,
son of General Bernardo Reyes, who is
here temporarily, received a telegram
today which he construed as denial
of the press dispatches that his father
surrendered at Linares. Mexico. The
telegram was sent from San Antonio,
Texts by Alexandra Reyes, a younger
brother and a translation of it fol-
lows:
please deny in the St. Louis news
papers the notice of our fathers sur
render We will make the same denial
in San Antonio" The message furth-
err stated the denial was authorized by
Sonora Aurelia Ochoa De Reyes, wife
of the general who is in San Antonio.
Rudolfo Reyes said he would depart
tonight for Chicago unless he received
confirmation of the surrender Of his
father in which event he would go to
San Antonio.

Mr.. Veeder was on the witness
stand when the noon adjournment was
taken.
Known as p. o. Box 247.
The only name by which the old
packers pool, which held secret meet
ingS prior to 1908, was known was
counsel for the government.
This mysterious gathering. which the
government asserts sought to fix the
price of meats and suppress cOmpett-
offices had no name which Mr.. Veeder
in his early examination could remem-
Der.
Pierce Butler, special counsel for the
government, questioned Mr. Veeder re-
gardfng the agreements entered into in
1902 between the Armour, Swift and
Morris interests to form the 10000, 600
merger of packing companies
The witness said that an elaborate
examination of the packers books was
made by expert accountants and the
properties appraised by a committee uf
experts consisting of Thomas COnnors,
Thomas E. Wilson and Horace 9.
Gardner.
Was the appeal of these properties
ever made?"
Il think the work was completed, but
no final report ever was made" was
the answer.
Mr.. Veeder said that under the mer-
ger agreement each of the contracting
parties was required to turn over at
least 80 per cent of stock of the con-
Germs it was proposed to consolidate.
The witness produced the contracts
made by Armour, Swift and Morris in
June 1902, for the purchase of six COM
peting companies prior to the organiza-
ton of the national packing company
The concerns acquired by the combina-
ton at that time were:
The Undressed Beef company of New
York. The Fowler Packing Co, The
AnglO-American Provision company,
The G. H. Hammond company, The
Omaha Packing company, The st.
Louis Dressed Beef and Provision COM
pany.
The New York syndicate which was
to finance the big packers corporation
was by the terms of the contract to
receive S35,000,O00 in bonds and $685.
100000 in stock as compensation and
remain in existence for one year from
the date Of the formation of the pro-
jected merger.
Kuhn. Loeb & Co. was to act as
manager of the syndicate and receive
one-fifth of the syndicate's profits as
compensation for service.

Chicago, Dec. 27.-WHEAT-Incessan

gave the price of wheat today an upward
swing. One authority at Buenos Ayres
declared the prospect was now for only
an average yield and accordingly had re-

bushels Furthermore, Liverpool dis

America were becoming scarce and that
British quotations were bullishly affected

RUSSIA DENIES IT.
Claims That Reports of Atrocities on
Persians Are UnfOunded.

St Petersburg. Dec. 27.The Rus
sian consul general at Tabriz has tele-
graphed today to the foreign office q
vigorous denial of the charges Of mur-
der and outrage which have been
launched against the Russian troops
by the Persian authorities. The con-
IT protest against this Infamous
calumny of our troops who have, al
ways treated the peaceful populace
with humanity notwithstanding all
the atrocities wreaked by the Persians
on our wounded soldiers and the mu-
tilation of our killed.
IF Isolated innocent persons have sur
fered it can only have been during the
bombardment of the houses in the victn-
ity of the camp from which our soldiers
were fired on. After suffering severe
losses the commandant Of the Russian
troops sent an order for all the women
and children as well the men to quit
the houses. He placed them under
shelter in our camp and later on sent
them to the city under an escort Of sol
diers.
ION this occasion a young officer,
Prince Wakhwal1hew, who was in com
mand of the escort, was treacherously
killed by the PerSfanS."

the packers prior to 1905. when the

Sulzberger, formerly a member of the
firm of Schwarzchild & Sulzberger,
which was absorbed in the reorganiza-

dictnent under the immunity plea.

that we were entering on a new era;
that the wonderful industrial develop

statutes and constitution, that tho

profound study and research anu the
application of the best expert knowledge
