Retail Beef Prices Bear No Relation
TO Lfva Cattle Rates.

WASHINGTON. April "a. 1S95.-It is
understood that the developments thus
far made in the investigation of the beef
question. have about convinced Secretary
Morton hat a combination has been
formed for the purpose of putting up the
price of beef. The Secretary, early in
the history OF the recent rise. was in

usual advance in dressed meat. cattle
on the hoof show a very moderate in
crease in value. even less than it would
seem natural to expect in view Of the
small receipts by comparison with a year
ago.
Figures received at the Agricultural
Department show that the m re-
ceipts of cattle at the Chicago yards for
the week ending April Is, was $4,000
head; the official figures for the previous
week were 1882. while the correspond
ing week of 1894. brought in 81, 1865 head.
A similar decrease is manifested in the
supply of hogs. For the week ending
April 10 the estimate is l07 900; for the
week previous. official S7,075, and for
These figures ought to indicate very
much larger prices to the raisers of cat

compared with six months ago. has in

from 90 cents to s1.30 per hundred. De-

George A. Lippmann. tw~enty-three
years old, of No. 422 Spring street, West
Hoboken, is a flower peddler. Yester-
day he sold Mrs. Louisa Prigger, of No.
rs Willow avenue, Hoboken. thirty cents
worth of plants. Mrs. Prigger says she
rave Lippmann a S. bill in payment for
the plants, and he gave her seventy
cents change, telling her he would go
and get the bill changed and bring
her the 81, as he did not have ii.
Lppmann did not come back with the
four, and Mrs. Prigger got Officer Ken
nedy to help her find him. They were
successful, ard caught Lippmann crying
his wares in a side street a few blocks
away. Kennedy placed him under arrest.
When searched at the station house there
was found upon Lippmann a SIS bill and
somc small change, but no one dollar
bill. He was locked up. This morning,
when arraigned before Recorder McDon-
ough, he admitted having sold the flow
ers to Mrs. Prigger, but said she had only
given him a dollar bill. He could not
account for the lack of a one dollar
bill IN his possession, while Mrs. Prig-

EVIDENCE AGAINST DURANT.
BlOodstnfnx About the Wash Room
Of Emanuel Church.

OF Emanu6l CHUfcn.
SAN FRANCISCO. April "a. 1S95.-A
close investigation of the washroom in
Emanuel Churchwas made yesterday.
This washroom could only have been
reached by some one thoroughly familiar
with the building. Besides a number of
aim on the washbowl, there are num-
erous ones on the spashers around it.
Blood stains nave also been found on
the walls of the little hall leading to
the washroom.
The extent of blood stains go to prove
tha the murderer had no light. for a
judicious person. as his actions prove
him, would not lave splattered 50 much
blood around had he seen what he was
doing. The blood-stained coat which
was brought to light in Berkeley on Mon
day has caused a sensation there, but
there is considerable difficulty in determ-
lining the date on which it was found.
Mrs Boillot, with whom the package was
left, tells three different stories as to
the date on which a strange man asked
permission to leave a bundle at her home
for a few hours.
Mrs. Boillot says the man resembled
Durant very much and she believes she
could identify him.
