The recent sharp advance in the price
OF beef prompted Secretary OF Agriculture
Morton to make an investigation into
the causes OF this rise. In the line of
this investigation sworn statement has
been submitted by e. j. Martyr, of the
firm Of Armour & Co., Chicago, in which
he traces the history OF the beef slaugh-
terlng business during the last sixteen
months. Mr. Martyr states that during
1894 cattle were fairly plenty, and the
Western beef slaughterers pushed their
business with great zeal, establishing
agencies in many Eastern cities and
towns. Thus the supply was greatly In
creased, while the depression In business
restricted the ability Of the people to
buy until prices were reduced to the low
est possible point, ''as dressed beef can
not be held any more than fresh fish,"
Mr.. Martyr then states that at the
beginning of 1896, 1t became apparent that
cattle were short. and consequently beef
slaughterers were obliged to put their |
AoSheo Oh ohOAb uhCWahSSo1 Nha lhht
caused gradual rise in prices, which |
eliminated this month In the figures |
which have brought about the inquiry.
In order to substantlate his statements,
he quotes statistics to prove that there
was a shortage OF two million pounds per
day In average weight of cattle received
at Chicago during the week the state
ment was written, as compared with the
same week In 1894. He shows that the
decrease at Omaha has been even greater
than at Chicago "The four principal
cattle markets." he says, show de-
crease since January l of practically
700 head, or 2OO.OOO,OOO pounds from the
receipts OF the corresponding period of
1884," 1t is claimed by Mr. Martyr that
armour & Co., have lost II 4-1O per head
on 431, ,72O head OF cattle marketed during
the year ending November g. 1894.
This statement is interesting, and bears
directly upon the charge frequently heard
that the high price OF beef was caused
by the manipulation of beef trust.

1t is reported that the Princess OF
Wales has withdrawn from London socie-
ty because Of the numerous scandals
with which her sex has flooded that COM
munity during the last few years. In
her announcement Of withdrawal she
says ut is time to exercise care when
the names OF titled ladies', standing high
in social position, are coupled with de-
pravities which astound and disgust the
world and make English society by
word and a kissing" This may be true.
but wherever a woman has been involved
in a scandal there is a party OF the first
or second part, as the case may be, and
the party is a man. Why then should
not the Prince Of Wales follow the ex-
ample OF his Nlrtuous and illustrlous lady
and withdraw from society also? II re-
cent revelations are to be believed there
is more reason for his than for her with
drawal. II he declines to do 80 1t would
appear that the princess must withdraw
from the princes society. As there is
general impression the prince does not
take much stock In the poets affirmation
that sure heart Is more than coronet,
the princess is likely to have lonesome
time with the housekeeping.

The company authorized in New York
to move tows by electricity on the Erie
Canal, after examining many methods
have decided on what is called the ca
BILE way system. This consists OF two
strong parallel cables strung along the
banks. The upper cable carries the cur
rent. and the lower Is connected with It
by shaft and motor. From the latter a
tollne runs to the canal boats, and draws
them along smoothly and steadily The
idea OF using propellors or paddle wheels
was abandoned on account of the waves
they cause, with resulting injury to the
banks. A double section Of eleven miles
near Buffalo will be in operation this
aeaaon.
