No evidence offered by the Federal Trade Commission in
support OF the statement that the large packers have monop
oily The Commissions report shows the large number
and Importance of other packers
The packers mentioned in the ready
to fair minded that they in keen compe
on with each other and that they have power manipulate
prices.
If this not true they would not dare to make this pos
tive statement.
Furthermore government figures show that the five large
packers mentioned the report account for only about
third of the meat business of the country
They wish it possible to interest you the details Of
their business OF how for instance they sell dressed
beef for less than the of the live animal owing uza
ton of products and of the wonderful story Of the methods
Of distribution throughout this broad land well in other
countries
The five packers mentioned feel justified in cooperating
with each other to the extent of together presenting this pub
lie statement.
They have been able to do big job for your government
in its time of need they have all time demands prompt
y and completely and they willing to trust their to
the amindedness OF the American people with the facts be-
fore them.

Plain Facts About The Meat Business

The Federal Trade Commission its recent report
profits stated that the five large meat packers have been profit
eering and that they have monopoly OF the market
These conclusions if fair and just matters of serious
only those engaged the meat packing business
but to every other citizen of our country.
The figures given profits misleading and the state
that the packers have monopoly unsupported by the
facts.
The packers mentioned in the report stand ready to prove
their profits reasonable and necessary
The meat business of the largest American industries
citizen who would famiarze himself with It's details
must be prepared for large totals.
The report states that the aggregate profits OF four large
packers were $140000000 for three years
This sum is compared with $19000O00 the average
the three before the making
thai the profit 2 100000 greater than the rewar
profit
This compares three year profit with profta
nanesty unfair method of comparison 1t is not only ms
leading but the Federal Trade Commission apparently has
made mistake In the figures themselves
The aggregate profit of $l40000000 earned
of four and half billion dollars 1T means about
three each dollar of saesor mere fraction OF

 Saves French Vessel.
 "The navy department has re oeived dispatch from a United States destroyer that at 9:3O o'clock this morning she interrupted an attack by an enemy submarine on the French steamer Radioleine about 65 miles off the Maryland coast. The destroyer al so took on board two men from the Edward Baird, which was bombed and sinking.
 "A later report was rcCe-ved stating that the RadiOleine had arrived at an Atlantic port"
 Reports from survivors who were aboard the vessels also established the fact that during the day at least two submarines have been at work in American waters. They are the U-37 and the U-151 and report to the navy department shows that one of them at least had stores to last three months.
 Members of congress who conferred with Secretary Daniels today were convinced that everything possible was being done that could be done without lessening American efforts to crush the enemy in France.
 Panic Among Shippers.
 She raiders have created panic among coastwise shipping. but they have done no military damage what ever
 The picking up of floating mine off the New Jersey shore was an nounced today by the navy depart ment. Undoubtedly it was dropped by one of the enemy t-boats. Possibly the raider was closely pursued and thought to lay a trap for her pur- suer.
 The official list of the vessels sunk by the U-bcats as given out tonight at the navy department included seven schooners and four steamers. The statement follows:

He urged the cooperation of parents in this last matter, declaring that If they did not look after their daugh- ters the police officers would do so, and that the councilmen and mayor would stand behind them.
 Besides the newly appointed off cials named above, ond and faithful officials were reappOinted as follows: s. c. Kyle. city attorney; M. L. But Ter. city clerk; Barney Norton, fire chief: o. B. Thomas, sexton. No ac- tion was taken last night in the mat ter of a new city engineer.

! NEW YORK. June 4.-Evidently the
 exploits of enemy submarines along | the Atlantic seaboard did not enter : seriously into Wall streets calcula- | tions today. More interest was man. ! ifested in war bulletins telling of the ] assistance rendered by American troops in checking the German drive at the Marne.
 All divisions of the stock market opened at material gains, these being considerably enhanced during the ac- tive forenoon.
 Shippings participated in the ad- vance which ranged from to points among leaders.
 Reactions occurred on the reduced deals of the mid-session. Reversals were moderate. however, and affected only few speculative favorites, specialties attaining higher levels than before.
 United States Steels early rise of 2l9 points, at which it crossed par by comfortable margin on heavy pur- chases, was material factor in the strength of affiliated issues, notably Bethlehem, Crucible and Lackawanna steels, Colorado fuel, Republic iron and Vireinia iron, which rose 2 to 9 points.
 Baldwin Locomotive was foremost among equipments at an extreme ad- vance of four points and other strong issues included Reading, Union Pacific and New York Central, Texas Con- pany and Mexican and California petroleums. Sales 750,0O0 shares. Ex cept the tax exempt, 31s's, all Liberty Issues made further concessions to new low records. The first As and second .'s fell to 93 and AS to $95.32. The general bond list was irregular. Total sales (par valuel. aggregated $7,250,000. United States bonds told issues) were unchanged on call
 GRAINS
 CHICAGO, June 4.-Corn rallied briskly today from the bearish effects of the submarine raids Prices closed firm, ? to cents net higher with June sL9O94 and July s1335s. Oats gained $ cents to 21a cents and provisions 1 20 cents to 50 cents.
 It was evident from the outset that | the furry over U-boats had come to | an end so far as the corn market was l involved
 Selling pressure, which was so ob- vious the previous day had greatly and shorts quickly took | the lead in the buying. Reports that | rains were delaying cultivation gave additional impetus to the upward i swing of prices. Last prices were at he tOpmost level of the session.
 Activity by seaboard exporters helped to lift the value of oats

Copper Producers
Must Not Reduce
Wages of Miners
President Wilson Approves
Price Advance and War
Board States Terms

WASHINGTON, July 3. President
Wilson to-day approved the agree
ment between copper producers and
the price-fixing committee Of the War
Industries Board fixing the maximum
price on copper at 26 cents a pound,
an advance of 21s cents over the for
mer price. The new price, which be-
came effective yesterday, is subject to
revision after next August Is.
The conditions on which the price
increase was granted were announced
by the board as follows:
That producers will not reduce the
wages now being paid: that they will
sell to the United States government,
the public and to the Allied govern
ments at not above the maximum
prices; that they will take the neces-
sary measures, under the direction of
the War Industries Board, for the dis
tribution of copper to prevent it from
falling into the hands Of spectators
who might increase the price to the
public, and that they will pledge them
selves to exert every effort necessary
to keep up production so as to insure
an adequate supply during the war.

Again Appeal for Proxies
Stockholders Still Attacking
Canadian Car Officials

The stockholders committee of the
Canadian Car and Foundry Company,
which last month charged the COM
pany's officers with Encouragement,
yesterday issued another call for
proxies to be voted at the annual meet
ing on July 15. This committee repre-
sents New York and Montreal interests,
Louis G. Beaubien, Of Montreal, being
the chairman.
GAS evidence of the insincerity Of
the management" says the committee,
"in dealing with their stockholders, We
direct attention to their circular letter
of June 10, 1913, in which they state
that it is unnecessary on their part
to refer further to the statement con-
tanned in this committees appeal for
proxies otherwise than to say that they
deem the statement so misleading and
damaging that they have instructed
counsel to demand an immediate re-
traction and apology from those re-
sponsible for the publication of the
circular"
In addition to Mr. Beaubien, the
members of the stockh olders' commit
tee are Michael Connolly. Montreal;
Willard H. Jones, Harry r. Hiliard and
William A. Shakaman, all of New York.
