The price of beef has steadily increased for
the past three weeks, and is now from eight
10 twelve cents pound higher retail The
shortage in the corn crop, owing to drouths
and storms, and the decline in the number of
beef cattle are given as reasons, but this is
said only to be a blind. The real cause for
the adynce, it is alleged, is corner in the
beef market; that while the advance Is very
slight for cattle on the boot, the increase in
the retail price has been out of all proportion.

The State Democratic Central Committee
met in Baltimore on Wednesday and selected
July 3lst as the date for holding the Demo
cratic convention. The meeting was a large
one and because the chronic GROWERS had an

the people, some interest had been aroused.

Another one Of the by-produets Of the com
mitiee was the gathering together Of the
leaders aud representatives Of the Democratic
party from an sections Of the Stale al the
same time when. and place where. the com
mittee met This was an ear mark plainly
showing the earnest interest with which the
course of political events is being watched
this year The temporary success Of Repub-
heanism last fall in Maryland, was seized upon
by that party and blatantly proclaimed from
the housetops Of the Eastern Shore and the
hills Of the Western Shore as guarantee that
the State this autumn would go Republican by
an increased majority. Now. whilst no
Democrat. who is reasonably familiar with
popular sentiment in this true old Democratic
State of ours. has seriously thought that there
was the slightest danger Of the State going
Republican, vet these persistent claims Of
Republicans have been disquieting and have,
at least. resulted in making the leaders of the
party DESTROYS of comforting with each other
if for no other purpose than friendly confer
ence.

His action was misconstrued, however, 10y

for any place that would suggest the thought
of safety.
The unloading went Off without a hitch,
and inside of an hour the huge animals we're
in line, attended by their keepers, waiting for
the signal for the march across the city to
the freight yards of the New York and New
England railroad ut the foot of Summer
street. 1t was originally intended to take
the route through the main streets. but MIR.
Lockhart feared that some damage might be
caused owing to the thick traffic and the fact
that they had Just landed. They were taken
by the quietest way to the freight sheds, fol-
lowed by Il yeritabe army of men, women
and children, the small boy being omni-
present.
They were soon put on the special freight
train which carried themtO their destination,
New York, and soon n row OF eXpectant
faces gazed at the sides of the freight cars, rs
if to catch the least sign that would suggest
activity on the part of the inmates.
The examination by the customs officials
was made. According TO the law, the duty
ON the animals is 25 percent of their actual
value. but this has been waived In thlS ease,
as they are only tran 'itory visitors to the
country. Their owner, Mr.. Lockhart,, has
been obliged to sign bond agreeing tha'
they will not remain permanently in the
country. If they are not out in the COURSE
Of a year he forfets it.
The largest of the elephants is Charlie,
mere youth of l6, but u very lusty one, as he
tips the scales at three and one-half tons
The other elephants are smaller, but eyeI
then very large specimens.
Mr.. Lockhart has no fixed tour in mind
but intends to exhibit generally in the east
beginning with New York. and continuing
until next june when the elephants will re
turn to London.
