manent headquarters of the organization
now at Peoria. The question finally will
be decided tomorrow.
Washington Is in the fight for the
headquarters and supporters Of the Ma

come of the struggle. Several of the Of
iicers of the brotherhood have been con-
WINGED that Washington is the logical
place for the headquarters. and have
openly declared that IL the headquarters
are removed from Peoria II will be to
no other city save Washington.
Convention Docs Little.
Little of Importance was accomplished
at the convention. The greater portion
of the day was taken up with the con-

clerks of the organization. The pro-
posed increases in the salaries Of the or

as was expected.
The question of the proposed increases

HOUSTON FEARS SOUTH
FACES CATTLE SHORTAGE
Cows Must Be Imported or
Beef Prices VIII Soar.

A prediction of a serious shortage in
beef cattle throughout the United States
and the complete depletion of Southern
pastures is made in a statement issued
yesterday by the Secretary of Agricul-
ture.
Since February Western buyers have
been securing the South. says the Secre-
tary, purchasing any and all kinds of
cattle and shipping them West for breed
ing purposes. So great is the shortage
in the grazing country that brood cows
must be imported or meat prices next
winter will be high above any ever
reached in the history of the country
Forty carloads recently were shipped
from one county in Florida. The exile of
Southern cattle is going on at this rate
all over the South, says the Secretary.

Conditions in Cincinnati.

The pension and retirement system in
operation in Cincinnati, Ohio. was de-
scribed by William Copelan, police chief
of that city. He said that policemen dis
abled after fifteen years Of service re-
ceive a pension of $50 month. Persons
serving twenty-five years and reaching
the age of .fifty-five years have the OPP
ton of retiring at any time on salary
of $50 per month. Disabled policemen
who have been on the force less than
fifteen years receive a pension of 81 a
month for each year they have served.
The funds for the maintenance of the
system are supplied almost entirely by
the City Council. Each member of the
force is compelled to pay 81 month to
a sick fund. Policemen receive sl.75 for
each day they are sick.
James NJ. Carl. chief of police of Cedar
Rapids, Iowa, told of the Statewide PEN
sion legislation in effect in Iowa. All
cities having populations of more than
5000 are affected by it. A tax of one
mill is levied on all policemen for the
maintenance of the system. Policemen
serving twenty-five years and reaching
the age of ffty-five years are retired on
half pay, regardless of whether they are
disabled or not. Widows of policemen
killed in line of duty receive a pension
of so per month while they remain UNI
married. Children under sixteen years of
age receive IS per month. This system
has been in effect for about two years.
James L. Cantwell, chief of police of
Charleston, s. c., explained the system
in vogue in that city. Policemen serving
twenty years have the privilege of retir-

previous king had the main dining table
screwed by the legs to the floor. because
many of his guests in their eagerness TO
fight had upset It with all the food.
Now King Peter has few guests at his
table and as It cannot be reduced in size
they have to sit about six feet apart. This
gives less opportunity for fighting, but the
banquets are gloomy.
Diplomacy has assigned the Cars

to Prince Charles of Roumania. This
country often boasts Of being more civil
ized than the neighboring Balkan states.
but we should not forget that it Expresses
the industrious Hebrews more cruelty
than any other stats In Europe, not OK
cepting Russia. Prince Charles of Rou-
mania is the oldest son of the Crown
Prince OF Roumania who is the nephew Of
the King and Queen. The King and his
wife, the celebrated Carmen SYLVIA" have
no children of their own. However the
character of Roumania as a civilized
nation may be regarded, It is certainly in
the heart of the Balkan trouble.
Roumania stepped in and snatched some
of the spoils OF war from Bulgaria when
that country was embroiled with Servia.
Some day the Bulgarians will want venge-
ance. Roumania is not a place where a
young queen is likely to have happy and
peaceful life.
The proposed betrothal Of the Princess
Elizabeth OF Roumania to the Crown
Prince George Of Greece may not be con-
sidered so Objectionable as the others
since the bride exchanges one country for
another that is as much disturbed as the
first. The outlook for Greek Queen is
not altogether bright, however. The grand
father of the young prince was recently
assassinated. The republicans are very
strong in Greece and they are liable at
any time to drive out the royal family.
Another important step contemplated
by the Russian diplomats is to link the
State of Bulgaria to the Russian Empire
b. marriage. With this object they would
marry the Cars third daughter, the
Grand Duchess Marie, to the King Of Bull
garia's Oldest son, Prince Boris. That they
have discussed this step is well known,
but they will not make any public an
nouncement of it, as the persons con.
cerned are too young to be married Prince
Boris of Bulgaria is only seventeen, while
e,Grand. Duchess Marie is only fourteen.

the outbreak of a bloody revolution,
the strange and inhuman behavior
Of the Car himself have inevitably
tended to unbalance the mind OF this
gentle and sensitive woman. Again
and again she was in a state of ner-
vous prOstration, and more than once
II has been reported that her mind
had completely broken down. Sure
ly the sacrifice OF her daughters is suffi.
cient to give the final blow to her reason.
The appearance of the two older daugh.
tiers is such as we might expect in chill
dren OF the Czarina, who is said have the
saddest face in Europe. From their
mother they have inherited beauty OF a
very wistful, delicate type Evidently they
are physically delicate. Luxury has added
to their grace, but the unhappy condition
Of their mother and the terrOrs Of life
have tended to make them neurasthenic.
The surroundings to which 1t Is planned
to sacrifice these young girls would make
any normal American parent recoil with
horror. First of all there is the Crown
Prince Alexander Of Servie, to whom It
is proposed TO marry the Grand Duchess
Olga. 1t rs important to Russia to have a
strong foothold in SerVia, because the
enemy, Austria, is close at hand. Prince
Alexander. who is twenty-three years old,
took the place OF his older brother Prince
George, who was too bad for Servia.
Prince George murdered the husband Of
one Of his women companions, fired shots
at performers on the stage who did not
please him, was picked up drunk in the
gutter at Belgrade and disgraced himself
In many ways. He even engaged in a
physical struggle with his father. He was
compelled to abdicate his claims to the
throne.
Prince Alexander. his successor, has
shown symptoms Of behaving in the same
manner. He has been drunk and dis
orderly many times. AS there is no other
son to take his place it is difficult to dis.
inherit him.
The barbarous manners Of the Servian
royal family are not surprising when their
antecedents are remembered. King Peter
secured the throne as a result Of the
murder of King Alexander and his wife
Queen Draga. The enthusiastic adherents
Of King Peter tore this unfortunate woman
to pieces and threw her remains out of
the palace window.
The monarchs of Europe at first re-.
fused to recognize King Peter because he
had profited by this murder. Then the
Car OF Russia wrote him a severe letter
telling him he should pursue and punish
the murderers. AS result of the Balkan
war the position of Servia has became
vastly more important. The Car is now
willing to sacrifice his own daughter to
protect Russian interests among the con.
spirators who murdered Queen Draga.

Belgrade Is barbarous in the extreme The
