I THE OMAHA DAILY 11 EE: E1U DAY. MAY 2, DROP IN THE SALE OF MEAT Consumption of Beef Falli Off ThirtT-Seen and a Half Per Gent ADMITTED BY LEADING CHICAGO PACKERS Jleaolatlon nf Profile to Eat No Meat (niiara the Heavy Slomt Mar ket stained by E port Trade. vrilCAOO, May 1. That the consumption of beef has fallen oft 374 per cent since the agitation against the packers began was admitted by leading packers seen by a re porter today. The percentages given av erage tha calculations of the packers seen. The market held stesfly during the fore noon, chiefly. It was said, because demand export orders were being filled. One thou sand heef rattle (not 10,000, as reported) were left over from yesterday. Opinions varied as to whether trade today would clean up the (1,000 head received. One buyer declared that there would be more than 1,000 head left over, while another ex pressed the opinion that the export busi ness would clean up tha lot. A representative of one of the packing nouses said that the yards have received B.000 head of cattle today; a year ago the receipts were 17.TS1 head. Receipts for April were estimated at approximately 140. 000 head les than for the same month a year ago. The bill for Injunction to be filed against the so-called beef combine Is completed and as Judge Day, the representative of the Department of Justice, probably will leave for the east tomorrow evening, all that remains to be done. It Is stated unofficially, Is to wait for word from Washington to act. The attorney general has a copy of tha bill as It haa been prepared In Chicago and District Attorney Bethea, while authorized to go ahead on his own account and proceed aa ha may see fit, probably will await the attorney general's order as to the time of Sling the bill. Bntchrra Fear Paekera. KANSAS CITY. May 1. E. C. Crow, at torney general of Missouri, and his assist ant, 8. B. Jeffries, arrived In tha city from Jefferson City to get evidence to prove that there Is a packing house trust. Mr. Crow did not remain here long, but went to 8t. Joseph to talk with retail butchers In that city. Mr. Jeffrlea had a conference with several retail butchers. Later he aald: There Is a beef trust operating In Mis souri and we can crueh It by law If the retail butchers will help the attorney gen eral and myself to get evidence. However, the butchers that I met here today fear the power of the packers, and for that reason It Is very difficult for me to get the evidence needed. ST. JOSEPH, Mo.. May 1. Attorney Gen eral Crow of Missouri, who arrived In St. Joseph this morning to investigate tha status of the alleged beef trust, has been making a personal canvass of the retail butcher shops today. He says ha haa gathered much evidence, but declines to enter into a detailed state ment. The fact that tha largest packing houses In tha state of Missouri are located In St. Joseph makes this city one of the main points of InqulrS, and numerous wltnee;es will be summoned from here to attend the bearing at Jefferson City May (. Evidence Hard to Get. Mr. Jeffries believed that a butcher's union exists here similar to the organlxa tion of retail butchers in St. Louts, but he cou.X find no evldenoe of such an organ ization. After much effort Mr. Jeffries persuaded a number of retail butchers to meet him. The conference was held be hind closed doors and all the butchers asked Mr. Jeffries to refuse to make pub lie their names. The conference waj ao secret that neither the meeting place nor the names of any of the butchers was divulged. After the' con ference Mr. Jeffries said: "You could not get satisfactory replies from the butchers, .After we talked a few minutes all the butchers who were at the conference asked to be excused from testify lag against the packers. I will have aome Kansas City butchers In Jefferson City v. he-, the case comes up Tuesday, but I will be compelled 'to ask the supreme court to order them to appear. I have no author tty to aubponea anyone else, but the court will Issue the ordera if I make the re quest. "Tha packers' combine seema to be more powerful In Kansas City than la St. Louis or St. Joseph. There Is no butchers' union here and I have reason to believe the packers have prevented the retail butch ers from organising. " Mr, Jeffries started for Jeffersea City to night Jfo Packers at Conference. NEW YORK. May L Alfred F. Bullowa of this city, ebalrmaa of the republican club committee which was recently ap petntea to investigate the alleged com bination of packers, haa gone to Washing ton (or a conference with Attorney General Knox, , No packers were represented at the eon ference, however. When the committee as sembled for Its Daal meeting telegrams were read from J. O. Lyman, Michael Cudahy, Nelson Morris. J. Ogden Armour and Ouatavua Swift expressing the regrets of the senders that they were unable U attend the conference. The tent of these telegrams was net made public. Chairman Bullowa and the other members of the committee expresaed their aurpriae when shown a dispatch, from Washington In which Attorney General Kites: expressed the opinion that the call for the conference was unwarranted. Chairman Bullowa aald: Our Idea tn Inviting the packers to the conference wea to secure for them their day In co irt and pending the determina tion ut the action which the government authorities purpose taking, bringing about some understanding which will be for the Interest -ef all concerned. The packera whom we asked to meet the attorney gen eral with us have declined to take ad vantage of the. opportunity and we will, therefure, now go ahead and co-operate with the legal authorities for tbe purpose f bringing them to time.

A BOOM Continued from First Pace.) when you enter you may he surprised to find greetings awaiting you, not alone from California, but from your own home states ss well, and even from countries beyond the sea, for this state stands as a federation of peoples from all places and new comers to the Mecca are sure to find old friends to welcome them. 'Our needs seem to reach out In endless ramifications snd our experience to be very limited. We shall, therefore, sit at your feet and listen and we ehall learn much that Is valuable and much that will be helpful in our email effort for the ad vancement and well being of our clubs. 'This Is what your coming means to us. To you we can offer only our most open hearted hospitality. You will gain tn - the coming far more than it Is within our power to give. It la from association with each other that your most beautiful hsrvest will be gathered. For from natural nterchange of thought, from observation of another's experience, from comparison of working plsns a great good may be in spired. To plan for the future is the obvious duty of the present. What, then, could be more appropriate than a conven tion of intelligent women brought to gether to compare and devise methods of helpfulhesa for mutual improvement .and for the' advancement of education. (ilfta to Advance Education.' 'It would seem, however, that the ad vancement of education need no longer be a source of anxiety, when the generous rich all over the world, by their munificent gifts, are placing It within the reach of all. In the history of mankind eduratlon has never been so general. The seats of learn ing are free and thalr gifted leaders untir ing and unselfish in giving their garnered wisdom to all who have leisure to accept It. 'But education to us means more than book learning. It means a practical ap plication of such knowledge aa will insure growth of power that shall ensble us to draw the best from life.' The dissemination of thla kind of knowledge seems to be the inevitable work of women's organizations. "The Interests of thla convention then will naturally center around tbe reports of the committees, where we shall learn the best methods for the betterment of tbe sur roundings of the poor, who are too busy In the struggle for existence to help them selves, for the .improvement of industrial conditions, for the encouragement of good government, and, above all, .for better home-making and a more Intelligent care and development of children. In abort, the best methods of raising, the standard of living, both for ourselves and others, and making us more worthy of this beautiful world in which God haa placed us to grow."

BALTIMORE, May 1 The game today between Baltimore and Boston ended In a row, which, but fer tho Interference of tha police, might have resulted seriously for L'mplre Sheridan. In the last inning Mr. Sheridan refused to allow McOraw his base after having been. It was claimed, hit by a pitched ball. The vigorous pro test offered by the manager of the Haiti more team resulted iu his being ordered to the bench, at which the occupants of the bleachers took exceptions. At the conclusion of the game the crowd surged onto the field and aurrounded tbe umpire menacingly. One man threw a brick, which went wide of its mark, and cut the -face of a policeman who was try ing to protect Sheridan. He was finally escorted from the grounds without sustain ing bodily barm. Tbe game was lost to Baltimore through the Ineffectiveness of tbe pitching of Howell In the early Innings of the contest. Attendance 2,500. Score: BQSTON. I R.II.O.A.K I3ALTIMOKB. B.H.O A.E.

FOREIGN COUNTRIES CANNOT GET READY senate 4x to lie Advised tn Ordain Tostponement Before Final Pas sage of Civil sadry An- proprlatlon BUI. ST. LOUS.' May i The following state ment was given out this evening by Pres ident David It. Francis of the Louisiana rurchaao Exposition company: "The sundry rlvll appropriation bill, which rs?n' .the house several weeks ago and Is now going through the senate, con tains an appropriation of JUMS.OOO t,o pro vide for a government exhibit, a special Indian exhibit and the additional coRt of the government building at the Louisiana furchJRC exposition. It vas deemed advis able to have the date of the fair definitely fixed In that bill, Id the event any change from 1!03 should be decided upon, ''Tor many months past the fair has vir tually been postponed ' for one year. A decided majority of the directors prefer 1904, and have for six months or more. The repeated request of business, domestic and foreign exhibitors for postponement; ad vices from foreign governments to the ef fect hat they had not sufficient time to make preparation for a representative ex hibit in 1903"; the statement of Oovernor Taft that the Philippines would not be able to Install their exhibits in a credit able manner If tho exposition should not be postponed to 1904; the expressed fear of the government architect that he could not procure material for a government building by 1903, and the fact that the general pub lic has fol- months past considered post ponement a foregone conclusion, were some of the reasobs that moved the executive committee ' to authorize me to inform the national commission that any action-of congress changing the time of the expost tlon from. 1903 te 1904 would be accept able. "Senator Cockrell wired me this after noon that the sundry civil appropriation bill would pass the senate on Saturday, and If a change of date was to be Incorpo rated therein congress should be Imme diately advised of the wishes of the local corporation. The executive committee au thorized me to evpress Its wlRhes to the effect that a postponement should be or dained by congress. "I'p to this hour over fifty of the direct ors have been consulted and without an exception every one favored a postpone ment. I have therefore replied to Presi dent Carter of the national commission to that effect, and have asked that our con elusions be submitted to congress and to the president. I think there Is no doubt as to the action congress will take, or that It will be In favor of postponement. 1IAYEMEYER ON THE STAND (Continued from First Tage.) added that' he had himself made some pur chases ther, out' that he did not consider It legitimate to compel him to rep"';, to questions pertaining to these Interests If," he said, "the committee compels me to give the information, I can of course do so, but I do not see what my private Interests' have to do with this inquiry." t'npltal I Inrrraaed. Here Seriator Piatt 'concluded hla ques tions and Senator Teller took tbe wltnesB, bringing out the fact that the capital, stqck of the trust bad been Increased In , recent years from $75,000,000 to $90,000,000. .';ri? you aware," asked Mr Teller, ;'that t l'u time your company made this in crease of $15,000,000 the newspapers stated that the increase bad been made for the purpose of purchasing lands In Cubs?" . The witness replied thst he did not recall the fact! "What, then," ssked the senator, "was the purpose ut your company In thts In crease?" "Tbe purpose was to promote our general are Nature's warning notes of approaching danger from a dis eased heart. If you would avoid debilitating diseases, or even sudden death from this hidden trouble pay heed to the early warnings. Strengthen the hearts muscles, quiet its nerv ous irritation and regulate its action with that greatest of all heart remedies. Dr. Miles' Heart Cure.

In reply to a question concerning tfcr" sup positious condition of poverty of the Cubes planters and of sugar producers generally, Mr. Havemeyer said he knew something ol them, "for," astd he. "I happen to be In that rategory myself." He said he had tint advanved snv money tn the sugar planters, but he supposed some advsnces tisd been made to them by (he local banks and that, no doubt, advances also had been mads by American sugar brokers. While on Ihte point he said that he made his purchases through Cuban brokers, but that, so far as he knew, none of them was a rtigar owner, lie added that he would not deal with brokers who had sugar of their own to eell.
