This action puts Chicago nearer an actual meat famine than any yet taken. Drastic orders have been issued by the labor leaders not to permit anyone to enter or come out of the stockyards.

In his annual report Brigadier General. William H. Carter, commanding the department of the Vieiyaa in the Philippines, strong ly urges the encouragement of athletic sports among tho soldiers to supply the present lack of means of recieation, and carefully regnlated and abundant employment as the most wholesome antidote for the effects cf Philippine time of peace. He holds that tho number of troops in the is lands and the distibution should be definitely determined. He sayB no in sutrcction or invasion (can succeed if deprived of the control of Manila and the principal seaport cities, and their occupation is a military necessity. Temporary construction and make shifts of every kind only Berve, he says, to dovelop and confirm in the minds of Filipinos the idea that Amer icans do not intend to hold the islands peimanently, so the matter is properly one for the Btudy of the general staff. A considerable portion of the rep rt deals with the operation of ladrones in this department during the .past year and General Carter says: "I am of the opinion that it is of no benefit to the good people'of these is lands and will delay their ultimate Americanization it the evil element is allowed to thieaten, harass and openly attack American soldiers without im mediate action by the commanding offi cer neareBt to tne place wuare tho offense is committed."
