means bftter fight.
In a statement issued on behalf of
the National Packing Company,
Ralph Crews, its general counsel, to-
night gives some inklings of the de-
termination to light the government to
the limit. His statesment follows:
"The company was organized in
March, 1903, for the purpose of eco-
nomic operation of certain subsidiary
corporations named jointly with it in
the indictment returned today by the
federal grand jury, for the northern
district of Illinois. Its organization
was directed by the beet couns *l ob-
tainable, who then belueved and now
believe* that its organization and the
operation of Its subsidiary companies
in no way transgressed .the provisions
of the Sherman act, and Bu this respect
it is practically similar to .nearly all
the large corporations of the country.
TRADE RESTRAINT DENIED.
"The total percentage ntf the business
done by the corporations controlled by
the National Packing Cbmpany forms
but a small part of the whole scheme
of the packing industry. This propor-
tion oould not constitut a monopoly in
anv sense of the word. Instead of
operating to restrain the trade of its
subsidiary companies, as alleged in the
Indictment, it is a fact that the com-
panies have all shown a healthy in-
crease since the formation of the Na-
tional. The company is operated by
Its officers purely as a competitive and
independent factor in thet trade.
These operations have, at all times,
been frank and opn, and we are con-
fident that the* courts will sustain our
contentions with respect to their le-
gality."

men do a lot of lying about them.
CHICAGO. March 21.—All questions
in dispute between the 27,000 firemen
on western raili*oa<ls and the railroad
managers, will be amicably settled, ac-
cording to an arrangement reached
today through the aid of United States
Commissioner of Labor Neill.
It was agreed by W. S. Carter,
president of the Brotherhood of Lo-
comotive Firemen and Englnemen, and
his committee representing the men,
and the general managers' ^committee
representing the forty-seven railroads
Involved, to settle the controversy in
the following manner:
Tho question of senority or of pro-
motion of old time firemen over new
men. and the question of representa-
tion by the union of firemen who have
been promoted to be engineers, are to
be compromised before any arbitration
is attempted.
The <lg)nand of the men for an In-
crease in wages of 12 1-2 per cent
Is then to be submitted to arbitration
under the Erdman act.
In previous negotiations the roads
had agreed to arbitrate the wage
question, but had declined to arbitrate
the" other two points on the ground
that they were points of displine and
nuthorityon ly.
The board of arbitration which will
hear the wage dispute will, under the
Erdman act, be composed of one mem-
ber appointed by the firemen, one ap-
pointed by the railroads and one se-
lected by the chairman of the inter-
state commerce commission, the lat-
ter to net as judge.
BENEATH THE SURFACE.

f news Kednesday
suicides of a young
Philadelphia, and a
nan. aged 51. in New
York nnd, finally, the attempted sui-
cide of another girl, little over 22. in
London. All three were discouraged.
The father of the Phladelphla girl had
killed her mother and then himself
exactly six years before, and she had
brooded over the double tragedy. The
New York salesman owed a hotel bill
of $128. and felt that he would never
regain his lost comfort. The girl In
London had drunk the dregs of > fast
life, and her equally fast husband had
deserted her.
It has been a long mooted question
whether suicide is cowardly or coura-
geous. It involes, perhaps, physic:* 1
courage, but moral cowardice. In ill
cases it is foolish. The thre? persons
who tried to find relief In suicide
might have found a less drastic rem-
edy for their woe. In neither case, at
any rate, was there any excuse for cut-
ting off life and leaving the burden
of responsibility to others.
i If those who are lonely and without
relatives or friends would get a hobby
they would not bo so anxious to leav
life The serious study of anything
In life will make life and the subject

would-be suicides is that tlj^ey merel

TAKE A WO FORTY SEVEN PASS
SHOCK WAS TERRIFIC.
While the final ten cars of the train
remained on the track, the shock was
sufficient to hurl the passengers from
their seats to the floor.
Conductor William Woorst, on the
St. Paul train, was the first to grasp
the situation and trainmen were hur-
ried to Gladbrook and Green Mountain
The uninjured passengers soon be-
gan the work of removing the dead
and injured. The dead were taken
to an adjoining pasture and laid out
upon the grass.
It was two hours before the relief
train from Marshalltown, carrying
surgeons and Coroner E. W. Jay, ar-
rived. The sight that met the eyes
of the surgeons was beyond descrip-
tion. The dead were crushed and
ruutillatod. In many cases beyond rec-
ognition. Heads were severed from]
bodies, arms and legs were cut off
Here lay a bleeding trunk—there a
head with a gastly agony of death
upon the countenance of the unfortu-
| nate victim.
HOSPITALS INADEQUATE.
The dead and inju< rd rrerc brought
to Marshalltown.
The hospitals In Marshalltown were
soon filled and other rooms were press-
ed into service. The unidentified d< 1 1
are in the undertaking shops at
Marshalltown, many so horribly
mangled that identification may he

railroad branch of the Y. M. C. A. and
an apratment house near the Chicago
Great Western depot have been con-
verted into surgical rooms.
Every surgeon and physician In
Marshalltown and the towns of Green
Mountain and Glad Brook has been
pressed Into service to relieve the suf-
fering.

The Tenderfoot Farmer
It was one of these experimental farmers, who put green
spectacle! on his cow and fed her shavings. His theory
was thut it didn't matter what the cow ate so long as she
was fed. The questions of digestion and nourishment had
not entered into his calculations.
It's only a "tenderfoot" farmer that would try suck
an experiment with a cow. Hut many a farmer feeds him*
self regardless of digestion and nutrition. He might almost as well eat shav-
ings for all the good be gets out of his food. The result is that the stomach
grows "weak" the action of the organs of digestion and nutrition are impaired
