MEAT PRICES PUT UP BY
RETAILERS, PACKERS SAY
Figures Produced at Trial to Show the
Rates Paid Were Trebled in Deal
ing with Consumers.

Chicago, Jan. 2-Efforts to show that
the retailers were largely responsible for
the high prices of dressed beef were
made by counsel for the defense at the
packers trial Saturday. On eross-ex-
animation by Attorney john Barton
Payne, Steiner G. IAngher, margin clerk
at the G. IT, Hammond & Co. plant Of
the National Packing company here, read
long lists of shipments from the plants
of the company at Chicago, Kansas City,
St Louis, Omaha and st. Joseph to show
than in 1909 the actual selling price OF
dressed beef to retail dealers in eastern
cities ranged from 5 to sM cents a
pound
These sales were cited by the defense
to refute the governments contention
that the packers profits on fresh meats
were excessive. The packers declare the
profit on this product in most instances
was less than one cent pound. During
this time consumers were paying from
ii to 2s cents a pound for beef.
The government pointed out instances
where the packers had sold beef for IA
cents a pound and insisted that the av-
erage price on the total sales shows that
large profit was made.

Gov. WILSON L
IN BOSTON
Gives Three Talks During Visit
There
ONE ADDRESS AT HARVARD
Says He Could Tell Privately in a
Moment or Two the Men
Who Owned New
Jersey.

Boston, Jan 29,--Gov. Woodrow vii
son of New Jersey, viewed as possible
nominee for the presidency, spoke before
two Boston business organizations and
q body of Harvard students having the
right of suffrage, during an lshour visit
at Boston Saturday. Gov. Wilson came
to Boston to fulfill promise made more
than a year ago to address the Boston
real estate exchange and auction board
but his admirers in that city seized the
opportunity to present him also to the
members of the City club, which is com
political opinion, and then took him to
the Woodrow Wilson Democratic club OF
Harvard students for a half-hour's adj
dress in Sanders theatre, Cambridge.
Incidentally. Gov. Wilson called upon
Gov. Foss at the State House, but moth
ing of political interest developed from
that interview,
Newspaper men waylaid him frequent
ly with questions are to various phases
of the Wattersou- Tillman- Wilson cpl
sode. The governor merely replied that
he had no comment to make at present,
and Col. Watterson's suggestion of a
court Of gentlemen in connection with
the controversy over the alleged raising
OF campaign funds passed without notice
by him publicly.
At the City club, Richard Olney, for
merly secretary Of state. introduced the
New Jersey governor, mot as a high
official, not a candidate nor as a Demo
crat, but as the type of man in whom
lies the best hope for the country's fu.
ture. I may add that he has capacity
and propensity for telling the truth
which is not always to the advantage or
satisfaction of those who ask for IT,.
concluded Mr. 0lney.
Gov Wilson made a plea for more
strongly representative government
"This present movement he said, sis
not an attack on representative govern
ment. The trouble is that in some
states they have not got it. We did
not have 1t in New Jersey Is months
ago, and could in private in mo
ment or two name the men who owned
New Jersey. But we have restored rep
rcsentative government there, az the
people are bound to do everywhere" His
address before the Woodrow Wilson
Democratic club in Cambridge during
the afternoon was along similar lines.
At the Boston real estate exchange din
ner Saturday night, the guests, besides
Gov Wilson. were Job r. Hedges of
New York, Gov. Foss, Mayor Fitzger-
aid and Chairman Hugh Bancroft of the
dock board.
Gov. Wilson remained Saturday night
in Boston and early Sunday went to
Providence, R. l., for conference with
leading Rhode Island Democrats at the
Hope club. He stayed in Providence

CAN'T INVITE KING GEORGE.
If He Comes the Suggestion Must First
Come From England.

Washington, Jan 29--The manifesto
items OF popular good feeling toward
the English during the recent visit OF
tie Duke of Connaught have convinced
Washington officials that visit to the
United States by King George and
Queen Mary would be most pleasing to
the country at large. Thus far, however,
the state department has received no
intimation from any source that the
English ruler has such visit under
consideration.
Owing to traditional policy which
has now become firmly fixed, the United
States cannot invite the ruler of any
nation to visit this country. The I'M
written law that no president shall visit
a foreign land during his term OF office
prevents this government from extend
ing invitations such as it could not ac-
cept
Since the president could not accept
visit foreign land, so this government
has adopted the policy that it cannot
ask kings or other rulers to come to the
United States.
Consequently any suggestion that
Ming George and Queen Mary visit the
United States must come from Eng
land The form to be followed would
be that the British government. either
through the American embassy at Lon
dor or the British ambassador in the
United States would inquire if it would
be convenient for this country if the
heads of the royal house should visit
the United States.

TAFT MAKES A WARM

New York, Jan. 29.-On the eve of

night at the Waldorf-Astoria to the
Ohio society of New York, and delivered

elared that the conservative element in

err" to prevent a movement which would
make the courts the creatures Of popu-
lar win and might make the decision in
every judicial case not one in accord
anee with the law, but in accordance
with what majority of people thought
the law should be-
"They are having constitutional
convention in Ohio said the president,
and | am told that one of the PROPOSE
tions is to propose the judicial recall.
Orators and statesmen are going up and
down the country denouncing courts,
pointing out their corrupt nature. The
time is coming in my judgment, when
the conservative people of this country,
who are in favor OF the eternal princi
Piles of justice and their administration
so as to make them prevail, should rise
TO meet these misguided supporters of
an utterly indefensible theory aud end
the agitation against the courts"
