'Scarcity Result of Great De
crease in Shipments
to Market.
PRICES RISE ACCORDINGLY
Packers Recall I.arjre Shipments
From England to Supply Home
Demand High Prices Make
Steak a .Luxury.
CTTTCAGO, June 6. (Special.) Th
farmer has decreed that the juicy steak
Fhall disappear, temporarily at least,
from its time-honored place at the break
fast table. Roast beef also has come
under the ban of the cattle-raiser, at
whose door is laid the responsibility of
the pending: "meat famine."
Parkers declare the shortage of meat
in America, which Is said to lit
prompted a reshipment of 210.000 pounds
of meat from England, is due to the
backward condition of the cattle market.
Bref, in particular, is scarce, and con
sequently the pi ices of steaks and roasts
are in the ascending scale. Chicago
meat-dealers say the condition was
brought about -within the past week
when shipments of cattle received at
the stock-yards were less than one-half
of those received In the same period last
year. There Is, however, an abundant
supply of lamh and pork, and the packers
are not alarmed over the possibility of
famine In the entire meat supply.
Receipts Greatly Decrease.
The falling off of cattle shipments re
ceived at the stock-yards during the
past week as compared with the same
period in 1907 shows a decrease of 32.356
cattle. The following table Indicates the
comparative receipts:
190S. 1007,
Monday, June 1 11,507 23,748
Tupsdnv, June 2 l.SO:! 2,834
AVedneslay. June 3 9.-'47 21.110
Thursday. June 4 4.74S 12.2HH
Friday, June 0 4.0O0 4.000
Total 31,404 65.020
Grower t'nwllling to Ship.
"There is a decided shortage in the
teef market," said John Burke, of the
, Burke Bros. Packing Company, "and
mis is attributed to the cattle-raisers
reluctance to ship his product. This con
dition finds Its reflection In hicher orices.
Of course, at this time of the year there
always is more or less falling off In
cattle shipments, but the decrease this
year is" so pronounced as to bo regarded
as almost startling. The prices of steaks
ana roasts have advanced during . the
past week and I expect to see a further
advance within the next ten davs."
House-wives now are paying from 22
to ia cents for sirloin and porterhouse
eteaks and in the neighborhood of 20
cents for prime roast beef. Unless the
farmer relents and ships his cows to
market, therefore, the price of steaks
and roasts may be beyond, reach of the
average Householder.
CONTESTS IN COMMITTEE
(Continued From First Pase.)
one of the state delegations so seated
would name a member of the credentials
committee.
More Taft Delegates AVln.
Sixteen more Taft delegates were add
ed to the temporary rollcall of the Na
tional Convention today as the result of
the determination of contests from Flor
ida and Georgia. The opposition to Taft
failed to score and the slate was wiped
clean in favor of the delegates instructed
for him. One Florida district, the third,
and three Georgia districts, the first,
second and third were passed over until
Monday because representatives of the
anti-Taft delegations were not ready to
proceed. Counsel for the delegations in
structed for Secretary Taft moved the
postponement and announced they did
not desire to take snap Judgment.
Almost Come to Blows.
Vigorous use of the gavel by Chair
man New, and the Interference of friends
was all that prevented a personal en
counter between principals in the Florida
state contests. The proceedings were
enlivened also by the assertion that Rep
resentative Butler Ames, of Massachu
setts, who is said to have engineered the
anti-Taft fight In Florida, was respon
sible for the use of alleged forged tickets
of admission to the state convention hall.
This charge was made in the form of
an admission by ex-United States Dis
trict Attorney J. N. Stripling, one of the
anti-Taft contestants who spoke in op
position to the seating of the Taft dele
gation. It created a distinct sensation.
The charges that forged tickets had
been used for the purpose of packing the
conventidn hall had been made by Henry
S. Chubb, state chairman, and one of
the delegates-at-large instructed to vote
for the nomination of Secretary Taft. The
alleged spurious tickets were not different
from the genuine and the doorkeepers
at the convention had no recourse but to
admit any person possessing one. The
members of the anti-Taft faction had the
foresight to reach the hall first 'and they
were In control when the Chubb delegates
arrived. The latter were compelled, to
go elsewhere to hold their convention.
They said they were outwitted by
"Yankee trickery."
: Lie Passed by Floridans.
The altercation between representa
tives of rival factions in the Florida
contest threatened for a time to be the
most serious incident of the day. It
occurred while Mr. Stripling was ad
dressing the committee. He was de
nouncing as "machine politics" the
methods which he declared- had been
employed by "J. N. Coombs, the Na
tional committeeman, and Mr. Chubb,
the state chairman. He said that, when
he was appointed United States District
Attorney In Florida u few years ago,
lie went to Mr. Chubb? who was one of
. the witnesses and referees and on
Federal patronage, and told him that
he did not want his Indorsement. He
said that he told Mr. Chubb that he
would repudiate such an idnorsement
at the Department of Justice in Wash
ington if It were made. Mr. Chubb
whs In the room when this statement
was made and he promptly denied it.
Fai ing Mr. Stripling, he said:
"That is an absolute falsehood."
"I reaffirm on my honor as a man
that what I said is true," replied Mr.
Stripling. '
Both men were standing. They
glared at each other and simultane
ously began to advance. Chairman
Kew'a gavel was digging dents in the
table and his voice could be heard
above the confusion, declaring: "Both
gentlemen are out of order." In the
meantime, friends of both men Inter
posed and the trouble was over.
The - Coombs-Chubb delegate-at-,
large and the delegates of the same
faction from the Second Congressional
District were ordered seated.
. Brother Against Brother.
Another amusing situation was created
by the Georgia contests. The state case
involving the delegates at large was called
and it developed that the faction oppos
ing Mr. Taft had not put in an ap
pearance. The Taft "big four" from
Georgia was then ordered seated. In the
fifth district it was a case of Blodgett
against Blodgett, two brothers being on
opposite delegations. Thomas Blodgett.
of Atlanta, was against the nomination of
Mr. Taft, and E. F. Blodgett, the post
master at Atlanta, was for the Secre
tary of War. The former -charged his
brother with being a subservient Fed
eral officeholder. The committee decided
in favor of H F. Blodgett.
In the eighth and 11th districts also
the Taft delegates were victorious. The
11th went by default, the opposition to
the Taft delegates failing to put in an
appearance. An adjournment was then
taken until Monday morning.

PARIS. June 6. (Special.) Paris de

DEATH BROUGHT BY TORNADO
Six Killed and Four Fatally Hurt in
Nebraska.
GENEVA, Neb., June 6. At least six
dead, four fatally hurt and several others
more or less seriously Injured Is the re
suit of Friday's tornado which swept
across Fillmore County and destroyed
everything in its path. A list of the cas
ualties follows:
The dead:
LULU. SMITH, domestic in home of
John Shlvely.
IRENE SHIVELT, 4-year-old daughter
of John Shlvely.
ELIJAH ARGENBRICHT, two miles

Elijah Argenbricht, Ross Shlvely.
Seriously hurt: Ed Fussel. farm hand
on Shively's farm: John Shively and his
Wife. A number of other persons are
known to have been injured.
The tornadoes, two in number, were
practically the climax of a series of
smaller storms which passed over West
ern and Southern Nebraska during the
past two days. Starting in the south
western part of the county, the tornado
clouds became larger as they moved
northeast, destroying everything In their
path. Apparently separating, the ' two
tornadoes in Fillmore County swept
across the county. leveling farm houses,
killing livestock and destroying houses,

senting himself as one of the directors
of the Cape Copper Company, gave him
a sample of one of the company's shares
and asked him to copy it, which he did.
The man called for the plate some time
afterwards and had as many shares as
he needed printed, from which he de
tached the coupons. These he then pre
sented at different branch banking es
tablishments in the provinces, iwhere
they were accepted as genuine and paid.
The forgery, it Is said, was not de
tected until the coupons were presented
in London, when an order for the man's
arrest was Immediately issued. But af
ter taking in all the cash, he took good
care to disappear, and no trace of him
has been found.
LUNATIC ON JUDGE'S BENCH
Insane German Creates Scene in
Parisian Court.
PARIS, June 6. (Special.) An as
tonishing scene occurred recently in the
Paris Tribunal of Commerce. About a
hundred and fifty persons were in court
waiting for the proceedings to begin,
when suddenly an eccentric-looking
individual, wearing a gown and barris
ter's hat, took, his seat on the presiding
Judge's chair. Speaking with a strong
Teutonic accent he announced in a loud
voice that the court was open. Then,
without further ado, he proceeded to
abuse the people present. "Get out, you
parcel of scoundrels and ragmuffins!
Hold your confounded row!" and so
forth. Upon this he began to pitch
books, pens, ink-pad and papers at the
people in the court. One of the attend
ants managed to remove the would-be
Judge from the bench, and then hurried
him unceremoniously out of the court.
While the public and parties in the
courtroom were excitedly discussing the
scene, the man reappeared and again
sat on the bench. This time It took
four policemen to drag him out.
At the central police depot, where he
was deposited, his name was found to
be Naftali Reidmann, a German sub
ject, aged 40, who was known to be a
lunatic.
DESTROYS FINE PAINTINGS
Vandal Ruins Valuable Canvases in
Public Building.
PARIS, June 6. (Special.) Another
case of vandalism is reported here, of
stupid, idiotic vandalism, the perpe
trator of which must either be a fool
or a lunatic. It has Just been discov
ered that the fine pictures by M. Al
bert Besnard which decorate the walls
of a public building have been deliber
ately scratched, pierced with holes and
stained with some chemical fluid. When
and how the pictures were thus ill
treated it appears impossible to deter
mine. At any rate. It is a consolation
to hear M. Besnard assert it will be pos
sible to restore the valuable works. For
tunately the artist has a complete set of
copies of the 17 paintings at the Ecole
de Pharmacie, where the outrage was
committed.
It need hardly be said the fine arts au
thorities have ordered a strict Inquiry
to be made into the whole affair, which.
following on the wanton Injury done
pictures at the Louvre and at the Lux
embourg galleries, has created consider
able sensation m the world of art.

ing other women to ride on the bay and
to fine dinners in town, while she lay
sick in a big house with no company and
only one servant, a Chinese, who could
speak no English. Her illness, she says,
was caused by her husband's neglect.
According to the complaint, Goodall
went East without his wife in the Fall
of 1907. When he returned he told her
that he wanted no more of married life,
that she was of a different tempera
ment, that she did not sympathize with
his work, that he would not be bound
down by her, but would live his own life.
Mrs, Goodall estimates her husband's
fortune at more than 1200.000. Further,
she says, he has an Income of $10,000
a year, in addition to a salary of $6000.
She asks for $500 a month alimony pend
ing the segregation of community prop
erty, and requests an allowance of $2600
for counsel fees.
MARTYRS TO GOOD CAUSE
Temperance Agitators Fined by Cal
cutta Police Court In India.
CALCUTTA, June 6. (Special.) The
temperance crusade at Poopa has
brought some of its supporters nto the
police court. - A number of Brahmin
youths started the practice' of picketing
the shops trading in native liquors, in
the hope of persuading intending cus
tomers to refrain from patronizing
them. The movement excited great
popular interest, and crowds gathered
nightly to watch the proceedings. The
result was a certain amount of disorder,
and the traders, becoming alarmed. In
voked the aid of the police.
Mr. -Anderson, assistant collector, at
tempted to disperse the crowd, who de
fied him and the chief constable. A
scuffle followed, in the course of which
two young Brahmins were arrested.
They were subsequently fined 100 ru
pees each for assaulting Mr. Anderson.
Three other temperance volunteers
were fined five rupees apiece for ob
struction. The picketing continues.

Bengalis of Chandernagore on
Verge of Rebellion.
HOME RULE DEMANDED
Attempt on Life of Mayor Results In
Riots and Bayonet Charges
by Sepoy Police on
Agitators.
CALCUTTA. June 6 (Special.) For
some time past the Bengali population
of Chandernagore nas been seething
with discontent, which culminated in the
recent attempt upon the life of M. Tardi
vel, the Mayor. ' Chandernagore Benga
lis are desirous of having a larger voice
in the administration of the town and
the latest move on their part Is to have
one of their number, elected Mayor.
Each attempt on their part to hold a
swaraj (home rule) meeting has been
frustrated by the Mayor, who has ab
solutely forbidden meetings of any sort.
However, the .Bengalis assemDiea on
the strand and marched in a body, in
tending to hold a meeting in defiance
of the Mayor's order. Mr. Tardlvel or
dered all his sepoy policemen, armed
with muskets, to turn out, and as the
Bengalis refused to disperse, he ordered
the men to fix bayonets and charge the
crowd. The Bengalis fled In all direc
tions. Some ran down the river bank
and. finding their flight checked by the
river, did not hesitate to jump in.
The occurrence took place opposite the
prison where the youthful Bengali, No-
gendra Nath Bose. is imprisoned, hav
ing been arrested in connection witn tne
recent bomb outrage.
Rioters Flee Prom Justice.
Charges have been filed against S3
natives in connection with the recent
riots at Tlnnevelly. Many of the ac
cused have fled. In the Chanallur riot
case, which Is an offshoot of the Tin-
nevelly riots, a dozen persons are in
volved. The proprietors of the National
Emporium and Swadeshi stores, against
whom warrants have been Issued in con
nection with the riots, have absconded.
After the usual proclamation the police
have attached their movable property.
Among the witnesses who gave evidence
in the proceedings at Tlnnevelly was
Rungaswamy Iyengar. High Court Vakil
and loyalist. He deposed that he was
asked to subscribe to a fund for the re
lief of the strikers in the coral mills.
but refused, and as a result a regular

Two pleaders of some standing In Tuti

The people understood Swaraj to mean

the circulation. Nothing is more trying than a non-healing, chronic old
ulcer. The very fact that it resists all external applications, and ordinary
treatments, is good reason for alarm, for the same germ which produces
cancerous ulcers is back of every old sore, and especially is this true if the
trouble be from any inherited taint. Surface treatment cannot reach the
trouble the blood is at fault and must be purified before a cure can be hoped
ior. in o. o. cj. win De louna a remedy lor sores and ulcers ol every kind.
It is a perfect blood purifier one that goes directly into the circulation and
promptly cleanses it of all impurities, poisons and taints. The ulcer can
never heal while the blood discharges into it the noxious matter with which
it is infected, but when S. S. S. has rid the blood of this cause and freshened
and built up the circulation the sore will heal naturally, and of its own ac
cord. S. S. S. begins at the bottom and heal3 the place as it should be
healed and makes a permanent and lasting cure. Book on Sores and Ulcers
and any special medical advice desired will be sent free to all who write.
