Gov. Ferris today received notice that
another attempt to bring about set
Element OF the upper peninsular copper
mine strike had failed. The informa-
ton came In the form OF a telegram
from Allen F. Rees OF Houghton. at
torney for the mine managers. which
read as follows: Cannot act along
lines of your telegram because OF con-
ditions which seem to make II impos-
sible."
Suggests Plan of Arbitration.
The telegram referred to by Attorney
Rees contained 4 plan OF arbitration
proposed by Chairman Lawton 7. He
mans OF the state railroad commission
which, IL Is said. embodied the with
drawal of the Western Federation Of
Miners from the controversy.
Mr. Hemans suggested that the mine
operators or managers should voluntarily
request the strikers to return TO work
and also request the governor to select
an arbitration board or commission to
investigate the three alleged grievances
or the strikers with the understanding
that the Western Federation OF Miners
would withdraw from the controversy
without seeking recognition or participa-
ton ia the adjustment OF the difficulty.

More Than 1000 Applicants.

Already more than 1000 applications
have been received. The present form

the Treasury 10 make regulations TO

proyal Of the secretary OF the Treasury.
Nothing so far has been done toward
preparing an eligible list, in view OF
the fact that the tariff bill Is not YET
law. and there exists a possibility or
come alteration before final enactment.
IL Is generally considered that the pro-
vision of the bill regarding the admins

Effect Of New Tariff.

Greater increases than those already
shown by the government figures, it Is
believed, will result after the passage Of
the new tariff bill, which provides free
entry for meats. There will not only be
the great meat imports from Argentina
and Australia, but Canada and Mexico
will send a large quota from the ranges
in those countries. This great meat sup
ply coming into the country from foreign
territory, free of any tariff, Is expected
to help materially In reducing the high
cost of living SO far as regards meat and
meat products. at least. The foreign
products, it has been declared. can be sold
at prices far below the cost of the domeS-
tic product.
DR.. A. D. Melvin, chief of the bureau OF
animal industry, is now In South Amer
lea instructing the exporters in the treat
ment of the product for shipment into the
United States. The diminishing meat sup
ply In this country. 1t Is also declared. Is
also receiving attention. and government
experts are now striving TO AID ranch
men In the west and south to develop
the industry.

IMPORTS GROWING;
MILLION POUNDS MONTH
Comes Mainly From Australia
and Argentina, With Some
From Canada.

There has been such an enormous in
crease in the amount OF fresh beef i'm
ported into the United States during the
three months last past that the total for
this period nearly equals the total for the
entire fiscal year 1912, according to fig
ures just produced by the bureau OF for
eign and domestic commerce. During the
months of June. July and August nearly
100000 pounds were imported. mainly
from Argentina and Australia, and 1t Is
estimated that the close Of the fiscal yesI
1914 will show a grand total OF more than
100000 pounds imported into the United
States. an increase over the fiscal year of
1913 Of approximately 1900. 900 pounds. In
1912 the amount was only about 100000
pounds.
This meat ranges in price from ! cents
to ~ cents per pound. in the country OF
origin. but these figures do not include the
cost of transportation and the tariff OF
Ia cents pound. The bureau expresses
the belief that importation of this meat
into the United States undoubtedly will
show great increases from now on. This
Is evident from the announcement that re-
frigerator ships will be placed on routes
from Australia and Argentina and the
United States to take care Of this traffic
and collectors of customs IN the various
United States ports have been ordered to
report the imports Of this product from
month to month.

Increase in Imports.

Detailed figures arc now in hand for the
months OF June July and August, and
are interesting. They show that the i'm
ports OF fresh beef In June amounted
to So, 205 pounds. of which 800. 1913 pounds
entered at the port Of San Francisco, o.
947 pounds at Seattle and 1908 pounds
at New York. The entrances at San
Francisco were from Australia, those at
Seattle from Canada and those at New
York from England, but understood to
be Argentine beef, which had been sent
from Argentina to England and thence
to the United States. In July the total
was larger than in June, being .333
pounds. of which 201,317 pounds. coming
from Australia. entered at San Francisco.
and 3O,7Sa pounds from Australia entered
at Seattle, while 41o.232 pounds direct
from England, but probably originating
In Argentina. entered at New York. In
August the total still grew, being for that
month Sal.542 pounds, Of which 4o4.1
pounds were from Australia and entered
by the Pacific ports and 397 1855 pounds,
entering at New York, were from Eng
