SMALL CHANCE FOR DROP
IN PRICES. SAYS ARMOUR
Segregation Of Packers Industries Is
Likely to Have Small Effect
on Cost Of Meat

Chicago. Feb. 1.-THE future trend
Of meat prices cannot be greatly at
fected by the segregation of lines of
business not allied With the packing in
duStry. in conformity with the recent
agreement with the attorney general.
j. Ogden Armour. president of Ar
mour 4 Co. meat packers. declared
in statement last night.
The cost of the live meat animals
is dependent largely on the cost Of
corn ami other feeds and labor and
such factors as taxes and freight
rates" Mr.. Armour said. These fac
tors are not affected by the arrange
ment brought about by the attorney
general.
IF the farmers cost Of production
drops through decrease in the price
Of corn. or labor. or other things he
needs In produce cattle. the price of
meat will come down. but if these
costs continue to climb as they have
in the last several years. there will
be no reason ia expect cheaper meat"
Mr.. Armour's statement said that the
cost of the raw material represented
about 81 per cent of what the packers
get for the finished product. that the
meat and byproduct business today
was being conducted on Il margin of
approximately Il per cent gross. Out
of this II per cent. he said. was paid
labor and other costs of manufacture,

der-secretarv Of state. The friction be.
tween himself and Mr.. Wilson con.
tinued until after he came back to
Washington.
During the presidents illness the
Mexican issue again came to the front
with the kidnapping and subsequent ar
rest Of American Consular Agent Jen-
kfns in Mexico. After the jenkins
case had been discussed ut cabinet
meetings presided over by Mr.. Lam
sing. the state department sent a note
to Carranza bluntly warning him that
further 'mOlestation' of Jenkins would
seriously affect the relations between
the United States and Mexico, for
which the government of Mexico must
assume sole responsibility"
President Wilson was advised Of a
situation which apparently had grown
acute. and he was said Mt the time to
have personally taken charge of the
matter. The Mexican government de-
layed its reply for some tinhe and SUBJ
>equently jenkins was released on bail
furnished by J. Salter Hansen without
the consular agents knowledge. Jen-
kins' case still is pending in the Mex
lean courts.
While few members OF the cabinet
have conferred with Mr.. Wilson since
he was taken i'll, 1t was said last night
that Mr.. Lansing had not seen him,
and that whatever business he had
with the president had been carried
on by daily correspondence.
Before the president left on his west
ern trip. however. Mr.. Lansing. after
his return from Paris. had u standing
engagement to see him daily. and he
visited the White House each noon to
discuss foreign and other affairs.

PRESIDENT DlSAPPROvES
Of ADRlATlC SETTLEMENT
United States to Withdraw From Con.
ference II Decision Made With.
out Consulting Y. S

Paris. Feb. 16.-Hugh c. Wallace,
the American ambassador. has deliv.
cred to the foreign office memoran-
dun from President Wilson. accord
ing to the Temps. in which the presi-
dent said he could not approve of Pre-
mer Lloyd Georges proposed settle
ment Of the Adriatic question, which
has been submitted to the Jugo-Slavs.
The newspaper says an identical men,
oranlum was delivered to the British
foreign offices in London.
The Temps says President Wilson
allowed it to be understood that the
United States would find it impossible
to continue conferences If the allies
settle the Adriatic question without
consulting the United States.
In his memorandum. President Will
son criticises Premier Lloyd Georges
plan as communicated to the .Jugo-
Slavs by the supreme council of Jan
wary 20. The president examined the
plan. but declares he cannot approve
OF its tenor. He particularly opposes
the idea which consists of giving the
Jugo-Slavs the choice between this plan
and execution pure and simple of the
London pact.
In addition. according to the Temps.
the president finds the Lloyd George
plan too divergent from the memOran-
dunn drawn up at London last Decem-
Der by Premier Lloyd George and
Clemenceau. with the collaboration of
the American representative.
The president gives it to be under
stood that II the allied powers settle
the Adriatic problem without consult
ing the United States government, the
United States will find it impossible
to concern itself in European affairs.
The memorandum was immediately
examined by the chiefs of the allied
governments before the French pre-
mier left London for Paris Saturday
morning.
The premiers have drafted reply
to President Wilson's note, which will
be transmitted through the American
ambassadors at London and Paris &C.

last night.

here last night that Paris dispatches
stating that the British and French
foreign offices had been notified that
President Wilson would not approve
their plan for the settlement of the
