Imprisoned at Ecua dor.

CHICAGO, September &c. L. Dough
erty told the Associated Press today that
on August 10th he received letter from
his brother Everett G. Dougherty, dated
at Zarauma, Ecuador, stating that he had
been held close prisoner since June
18th. Mr.. Dougherty went to Ecuador
seventeen years ago, and has been en-
gagged in various enterprises of that
country. He married niece of the
President of Ecuador, and has recently
been engaged in gold mining. The
letter gave no reason for his imprison.
ment, but referred to correspondence en-
closed, which had been handed United
States Consul McGarr. No cofrespon.
dence was in the letter when it reached
here, and his brother thinks it was
tampered with by the authorities. Gable
grams sent by Mr.. Dougherty from CHI;
cago since the receipt Of the letter have
failed to elicit any reply, and he hal
complained to the State Department.

DRESSED BEEF MONOPOLY.
The Senate Com mittee Begins Its
Work of lnvestigatiOn.

wOIk Oh IkAVcbehk 0sAVAs
CHICAGO, September 2.-The Senate
Committee to investigate the relative
rates on dressed beef and live cattle met
here today. Senators Vest, Coke and
Farwell were present. Railroad man.
ayers we're called to testify as to proper
rates. Elgin, Illinois, dairymen testified
that the 'dressed,beef business has entirely
changed conditions. Local butchers no
longer slaughtered cattle, but bought
dressed beef in Chicago. Cattle to be
sold, must be shipped to Chicago. The
price of cattle had greatly deprecated,
| but there was no reduction in the price
of beef.
Mr.. Larkin, of Elgin, read figures
showing an alleged decline in the price
of live cattle since the year 1880 from
So AIS per cwt. to 81. .So4. Then he took
a slap at the railroads; he complained
that dealers throughout the country were
refusing to buy live stock, preferring to
order dressed beef from Chicago. The
idea brought out was that the freight
tariff of live stock was higher than that
on dressed beef. Thus smaller dealers
considered it to their advantage to buy
| in Chicago, and this, according to Mr..
Larkin's notion, left Chicago the control
of the live stock market.
A number of other witnesses, princi-
pally commission men at the Union
Stock Yards, were examined tonight.
Thomas Brown, dealer in export cat
tie, said: "Years ago we had plenty Of
buyers, and if man could not get his
figures here he went on to New York OF
Albany. The railroads stopped this by
crushing out these shippers, and the
wrecks Of many of them are to be seen
about the stock yards today. The
dressed beef trade has killed the live
cattle dealers"
Brown said the dressed beef men were
not frightened with pleuro-pneumonia
because, England would not take live
| cattle, the price went down and they
we're benefited accordingly. Portions o.
beef that could not be disposed of other
wise, he said, we're used in canning.

speaking Of the project to build new

for the old before commencing the new.
"The claim, which is for $120, 900, has
never been denied by the Government,
nor can it be, for we have the promise of
the Government made through Washing
ton to pay the money back to Virginia.
We will not, perhaps, ask that the clai N
be paid in money, but will probably sug-
gest that Congress defray the expenses

The defendant was the proprietor OF the
house, No. 73 Workman street, East Los

Shepard died few days ago, in spite, OF
the prayers OF its relatives, who are be-
levers IN divine healing. The defend
ants attorney made a strong effort TO
overthrow the case against his client, ar
guing that the Court had no jurisdiction
in the matter, as there was conflict be-
tween the city ordinance under which
the complaint was drawn and the Char
ter, which is silent with reference to the
disease of dipbtheria; but the Court
overruled this objection and convicted
the defendant.
