THEY FORM A RIYAL ASSOCIATION Admission or Packers and Railroads tbs Isaus—Shsspgrowsrs Stay With Old Association. Denver, Jan. 16.—The National Livestock association was rent in twain today by the adoption of a new consti tution which admitted the packers to membership and provided an open door through which the railroads of the country might at any time become fact ors in the control of the organisation. The cattlemen, horse and swine grow ers, together with representatives of some of the affiliated industries, re fused to agree to the new constitution, withdrew when they considered its adoption probable, and this afternoon formed a new organisation under the name of the American Stockgrawers’ association, whose aim it w ill be to wield a dominating influence In the in teract of the cattlegrower. Roughly speaking, the sheepgrowers, commission men and stockyards inter ests remained with the Natfona Live stock association, and the actual grow ers of all other animals for the market have gone with the new association. The cattlemen have from the first strongly opposed the admission into their organisation of the packers and especially of the railroads. They main- tained that these two influences would ultimately dominate the cattlegrowing . , . ... . . ., , . . industry of the country to the detri ment of the individual grower, and they refused to remain in an organisa tion which included their representa tives among the members of its con trolling body.

Berlin, Jan. 18.— The American Chamber of Commerce of Berlin con siders that the moment is favorable for a movement loking toward a reciprocity treaty between the United States and Germany, and especially so because the new system of reciprocity treaties Ger many has concluded most probably will affect American trade adversely. The Chamber of Commerce sent a_petition to Preeident Roosevelt, which in part follows : “ The American Chamber of Com» merce of Berlin, organised with the pui^oee of furthering good relations between the United States and Ger many, especially in the direction of commercial affairs, and including among its members of leading concerns of both nationalities trading between the two countries, pray that you urge upon congress and other authorities the pressing need of prompt action for a reciprocity treaty with Germany and also of new laws and regulation» for the appraisal of merchandise, to replace the present very faulty and often un just system which has been and still is constantly causing much bitterness of feeling among practically all the im porters of commodities into ports of the United States.” The American Chamber of Commerce offers its services in the collection of information. — OREGON OTATE ITEMS OF INTEREST LEGISLATURE MEET8.
