would have been from S2S to 50 cents

AZ TO so cents a hundred pounds, ana
on general packing house prooucts
rom 80 to SO cents hundred pounos.
The commission set April 10, 1919,

ments on the proposed increase. Pack
ers and wholesale meat dealers as well
as cattle raisers were the DIRECTORS.
Passenger Rates Higher.
Increas ed passenger rates between

vance between st. Louis and Ne"

of the Senate foreign relations COMMITTEES
to carry on thorough investigation Of
all facts surrounding the acquisition OF
the Panama Canal Zone before any at

to be the common-sense way OF handling
the matter.
No attempt will be made to have the
President withdraw the treaty from the
Senate at this time. it was said. Ittis
conceded that unless there is a consider
able change OF sentiment toward thu
pending treaty, it has not the slightest
chance of ratification by the Senate. The
only way 10 bring about such a change of
sentiment it is urged. is through foreign
investigation. II 1t can he shown that
Colombia was badly treated and that

TURKS REPLY TO GREEKS
REGARDED AS FRIENDLY
Reported That Constantinople Is
Ready to Grant Indemnity for
Losses in Expulsions.

CoNsTANTINOPLE. June 20-It was
stated on good authority here today
that the Turkish government has In
.structed it's minister at Athens to in
form the Greek government that Turkey
is willing to permit the return Of Greek
subjects who were compelled recently
to leave Turkish territory. The Otto
man government, it is said, is ready te
grant indemnity for the losses of those
who were forced to leave their homes
during the recent anti-Greek dis.
turbances.
ATHENS, Greece, June 20.-Omcial
circles here are of opinion that thu
reply Of the Turkish government to the
Greek note regarding the expulsion OF
Greek subjects from Asia Minor shows
desire for friendly settlement.
Although the Ottoman reply says thu
Greek note can only apply to the stu,
alton of Greek refugees. the general
tenor Of the document and Of the othel
communications made to Greece by
Turkey is considered satisfactory as an
answer to the Greek demand for the
cessation Of persecution by immediate
efficacious measures.
Greece will continue to insist on the
repatriation Of the Greek refugees and
the restoration Of their property.
