letin issued by the census bureau.
The Importance of Wisconsin's in
dustries is reflected in the totals for
the year 1909, when the census was
taken. At that time the state had
9,271 manufacturing establishments,
which gave employment to an aver
age of 213,426 persons during the
year and paid out $119, $4,000 in
wages. These establishments, ac-
cording to the bulletin, turned out
products valued at $500, 900, to
produce which materials to the value
of $346,357, 1000 were used.
In the value of products the lead
ing industries take the following or
der: Lumber and timber products,
$57, 900; foundry and machine
shop products, $54,124, 900; butter,
cheese and condensed milk, $685.
S43, 700; leather, $44,668, 900; malt

''Of the total value of products re-
ported for the state in 1909" says
the bulletin, "124 per cent was re-
ported from the ten cities having be-
tween 10000 and $4,000 inhabi-
tants, 14.1 per cent from the seven
cities having between $4,000 and

WILL PROBE HIGH
PRICES Of MEAT
Department of Justice Plans
Supplementary Inquiry.
MAY SEEK A DISSOLUTION
lntimated, However, Packers viii Vol
UNFAIRLY End National Packing
Company or Bring 1t Into
Harmony With Law.

Washington, June 4.-Congress and
the department of justice are about
ready to investigate another trust,
and in consequence some OF the big
men in the packing industry, who
were recently acquitted in criminal
proceedings in Chicago, probably will
be summoned to Washington to tell
why the price of beef and other
meats has gone UP.
The question of whether the coun-
try's meat supply may be controlled
in violation of the Sherman law has
been called to the attention of the de-
partment by individuals, and also by
Representative Edwards bill directing
the attorney general to make an in
vestigation
Since the packers were acquitted at
Chicago some time ago of criminal vio-
lation Of the Sherman law, the depart
ment of justice has been keeping in
close touch with the meat situation
and Attorney General Wickersham has
had under consideration a civil suit
for dissolution of the National Pack
ing company.
United States Attorney Wilkerson at
Chicago has been reviewing the evil
dence at the criminal trial, and Oliver
e. Pagan, one of the governments spe-
cial attorneys, has been studying the
situation. 1t is estimated that a fed
eral grand jury recently impaneled in
Chicago might investigate some
charges regarding the testimony of
certain witnesses in the criminal suit.
Indirect limitations have reached
the government that the packers
might take some voluntary action to
dissolve the National Packing COM
pany or bring it into harmony with the
law.
Whatever may be done in this re-
gard, it is thought certain that Attor-
ney General Wickersham will direct
a comprehensive investigation to find
if the soaring prices of meat are due
to any violations of The antitrust law.

U. S. is REPRESENTED
IN WIRELESS CONFERENCE
TriennaI Radio Telegraph Congress
Opened Today in London-many
Subjects to Be Discussed.

London, June Sat the opening OF
the triennial international radio-tele-
graph conference here on Monday the
United States was represented for the
first time since the advent OF commu'
nication without wires.
In all the previous conventions ana
conferences where the nations OF the
world gathered to formulate laws ana
frame regulations of the TRANSMISSION
of messages through the air. the UNI
ted States was unrepresented, because
of the power of the United Wireless
company and other like corporations
in America to prevent congress from
ratifying the Berlin conference OF
1906. wherein the European nations
pledged themselves to send delegates
to wireless conference, to be helo
every three years. But congress, III
March last, ratified the Berlin confer
ence, and accordingly IL representa-
tives of the United States appeared at
the present conference
Because Of the Titanic disaster,
wherein the wireless played a most
prominent and important part, this
meeting of the international confer
ence is expected to be the most i'm
portant ever held.
Among the subjects to be discuss
ed during the coming two weeks are:
International distress signals; con.
duct of operators in case of danger;
Reconsideration of signals for interna-
tional craft (including an entire re-
Obstruction of the United States YES
sels), and an appeal to the nations of
the world to legislate against anna
teurs being allowed to break into
messages and use the air during
times OF danger or great stress of
business.

400 feet when the gust of wind struck
the machine. The biplane crashed to
the ground, crushing the aviator be-
