rive from Seattle tonight to take charge of Parmalees body.
 The biplane was so crushed that mechanicians were unable to trace definitely the cause of it's fall.
 Philip o. Parmalee was regarded by experts as the safest" of Amer ican aviators as well as the most successul, financially, of those em- ployed by the Wrights He was saif to have earned $197OOO for the Wright brothers during 1911 and he qui their employe only few weeks ago
 When Parmalee and his partner, J Clifford Turpin, came here two week, ago. after spending eight months if Los Angeles, they brought with then two tractor biplanes" which were built under Parmalee's supervision in Los Angeles.
 Parmalee was born at St. Johns Mich. about years ago, and his Hrst business venture was as a part ner with his father in the manufae- ture of gas engines. Later he became an automobile tester. He drove an automobile in the New York Atlanta tour, for a large factory at Flint, Mich
 Two years ago Parmalee entered the employ of the Wright brothers and went to Los Angeles with Arch Hoxsey, who was killed there on Dec. St, 1910 In Chicago last Aug Just, Parmalee established a worlds s altitude record, flying 10000 fet high, but the record was broken on the next day by Lincoln Beachy.

Outlook Bad at paInnlrl.

Santiago, Cuba, June That the situation at Daiquiri is very serious is evidenced by the fact that the United States gunboat Paducah is still lying off that place. The American consul at Santiago Ross E. Holaday. who went to Daiquiri this morning to ascertain the exact status of af- fairs, returned this evening with the report that conditions are critical. Miners employed by the Spanish American mining company are aban- doning work and leaving at every op- portunity for Santiago. The organ ization at the mines has been com pletely broken up.
 The steamer Frank Penney has ar rived here from Daiquiri with 309 refugees. Man others were left be- hind on account of lack of aceommo- dations General Ivonet has sent | letter to the superintendent of tha mines, demanding explosives, electric batteries and wires, and declaring il these were not delivered to the in surgents he would not be responsible for what might happen.
 Cavalry under Captain Iglesias to- day attacked a body of rebels neal El Cobre. dispersing them and cap turing one man. Later the cavalry dispersed another band near Altos d. Elena

New penIes packlno Hall.

Chicago, June 1.-After hearing that part of Colonel Roosevelt's statement referring to the protests Of Illinois and Maine delegates against the distribu- ton of tickets for the republican na- tional convention, Colonel Harry s. New, chairman of the subcommittee on arrangements, tonight said:
 ITO anyone who knows anything about the capacity of the Coliseum such statement is utterly absurd. The total seating capacity of the house, including delegates, spectators, platform officers and the band is IT, 1SS. The seats occupy nearly all the available space The gallery has seats for only 3.200 persons
 There isn't standing room for even a small part of such a number of peo- pie as the colonel mentions.
 q repeat what have said before that the allotment of tickets to the various states is as nearly equitable as any fair committee could make it. There is no intention to pack the house for or against any candidate"

ment The government is especially anxious to disperse the insurgents at that point, where they are menac- ing American property.
Max Close pown Mines.

Washington, June 1.-Despite a demonstration by Cuban rebels at Fl Cobre, near Santiago, the gunboat Pa- ducah was held at Daiquiri, where conditions are disturbed, according to adyices received by the state depart ment today. The Paducah was ordered held in readiness to proceed to San tiago but advices tonight said the Cuban cavalry had put down the reD- els at Fl Cobre and that the gunboat would not leave Daiquiri at present.
 State department officials are somewhat disturbed at the impending closure of the big mines at Daiquiri, which would throw about 1.500 men out of work. The unemployed la borers might easily be drawn into the revolutionary ranks. It is also ap prehended that a corresponding num- Der of skilled workmen may be af fected in the steel works in this coun- try which derive their ore from the Cuban mines.
 The Cuban minister, Senor Rivero, called at the state departmnet to- day to secure permission for the pur- chase of 10000 rifles to arm the vol unteer corps now being raised in Gu ba by the government and to enable the plantation owners to arm their employees and organize into guarls The request probably will be granted and the war department will have an opportunity to adyantageously dis pose of a quantity of the discarded Krag Jorgensen rifles. Some of these weapons were sent to Cuba about two years ago.

WILL INVESTIGATE
 HIGH MEAT PRICES
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WILL PROBABLY LOOK INTO THE
 PRESENT SITUATION.


 Washington, June 1.-The higa prices of meat probably will be in- vestlgated soon by the federal gny- ernment.
 An inquiry to supplement- the prey ious investigations into the packing business is being p''aned at the de- partment of justice The soaring prices of meat and the question of whether the country's meat supply may be controlled in violation of the sherman law, has been called to the attention of the department by indi- viduals and also by the bill of Rep resentative Edwards of Georgia, di- recting the attorney general to make an investigation /
 Since the packers were acquitted of criminal violation of the Sherman law the department of justice has been keeping in close touch with the meat situation. It is intimatei tLat a federal grand jury recently ompan- elled in Chicago might inN estigate some charges regarding the testimony of certain witnesses in the criminal suit
 Already some indirect jHtimations have reached the government that the packers might take some volun- tary action to dissolve the National Packing Co. or bring it into harmony with law
 Whatever may be done in this re- gard, it is believed certain Attorney General Wickersham will direct a comparative investigation to find if the soaring prices of meat are due to any violations of the antitrust law. While the attention of the depart ment of justice has been drawn to the recent increased prices of coal, no in vestigation is contemplated at this time.
 The retail situation in both the coal and beef industries must be dealt with by the states, according to off cials here. In many localities, it is added, there are probably combina tions of retail dealers. which keep up the prices of these necessaries of life As those alleged interests op- crate entirely locally. no question oi restraint of interstate trade can DC raised and the federal government is l powerless to intervene
 Reports that congress might inves. tigate the high cost of beef were re eeived with welcome at the depart ment of justice. Attorney Genera Wickersham is willing that congres; should undertake the task as an ait to the government in ascertalning thl causes of the growing advances.

y honest decision in the contested

ly honest decision in the contested delegates cases.
 The delegates from Illinois asked me to go out to Chicago, l told them that my personal intention was not to do it, certainly not unless some grave emergency in the shape of unfair play should arise"
 After the conference it was made known that the object of the pilgrim age of the ulinoisans to Sagamore Mill, regarding which there had been some mystery, was to present a plan for a nationwide organization As soon as Colonel Roosevelt gave his 10 K" Robert Mccormick. chairman of the executive committee, which has already been formed in Illinois, said that requests would be sent Inn mediately to the Roosevelt delegates in every state asking them to form organizations and elect executive com mittees. These committees will form a major organization with the expec- tation of reaching decision upon ev- cry point of importance, before 1t comes up in the convention. MT. Mccormick said by these means he hoped the delegates would take charge of the convention. In explain ing the proposal, which was made to Colonel Roosevelt, to drop the fight upon the selection of Senator Root as temporary chairman, he said,
 Some of the delegates feel that to make fight on Mir. Root isn't worth while. The function of the tempo rary chairman is to call the conyen- tion to order and anything which he may say, he says for himself and for the national committee. and not for the convention. Some of the dele gaets would prefer to make the fight upon fundamental questions"
 "The Roosevelt delegates will not sHoW any WSdhHSso DN diio"lhB INocN to go through" MT. Mccormick said
 Concerning the distribution of tick cts, Fred B. Sterling of Rockford, IT,, said:
 The Illinois delegation wants to make the most vigorCs protest it can put in words in regad to the hand- ling of the tickets. Colonel Roose- velt's friends are not being treated as they ought to be by the national com mittee, and I can not understand the action of the committee unless it is making an effort to pack the con vention hall in favor of some other candidate"

 HIS SOLDIERS.
Has Made no Definite Move as Yet to Attack Rebels-Washingto Fears Closing of Mines Will Aid
 the Rebels.

Havana, June 1.-Government troops have now been for two days in touch with the rebel bands in Oriente Skirmishes have been constant but without important result
 The report from Santiago of Sc. were fighting near Palma Sorriano proves erroneous The dispatch con talning the bombardment with mount ain guard in which 127 men and IS women were said to have been killed. now appears to have referred to an engagement near the same place on Tharsday of which only confused ac- counts have been received. The gov eInment has not yet issued any off, cial report of this action.
 General Monteagudo, the Cuban commander-in in-chief. remains at San tiago, but Expects to go to the front at an early date, as he has com 2leted arrangements for distribut- ing his troops in flying columns 10 permit of the most rapid movements.
 The government apparently is mak- ing every effort to protect American property. especially the mines at Dali quiri. to which point strong forces have been dispatched to repulse the rebels in that vicinity, who are nu- merous and threatening.
 There is no confirmation of re- port which reached here this morn ing of the capture of two Americans, Wheeler and Collister. near Daiquiri It was first said they were held by the insurgents for ransom
 At g o'clock tonight the goyera- ment announced there was no fur ther news. The only information con cerning government losses is that one sergeant of the rural guard had been killed
 The new cruiser Patria with GOO volunteers under Colonel Piedra, sail ed for Santiago this afternoon. Pres ident Gomez went aboard the Patria and made a patriotic address. which the volunteers cheered Justify.
 It is probable these troops will be utilized to guard foreign properties, leaving the regulars free for active offensive operations.
 Recruiting of the home guard is continuing actively. Rumors are still current of rising of negroes in Ha- yana and Pinar del Rio provinces, but there apparently is no serious foun- dation or such reports. All other parts of the island indicate the main tenance of complete order. but ar rests of suspects continue.
 A report from Caimanera says a brigade of marines is encamped at Deer Point ready for instant service. The insurgents, however, are not particularly active in that district
