A CATTLE MONOPOLY.
p D. ARMOUR CORNERS
THE CARRYING TRADE
Chicago Man Buys Up All the Room
for Transportation Of Cattle on Trans
Atlantic Lines for . Year-Wul Ad.
vance the Price OF Beef In England

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-Practically all
of the outgoing room for the trans
portation of cattle on the regular
transatlantic lines has been cornered
by a syndicate composed of English
cattle buyers and P. D. Armour OF
Chicago This means that indepen-
dent cattle shippers in this city will
be shut out of the English markets,
and that the price of beef will thereby
be advanced.
Contracts have been placed with the
White Star line for one year for all of
the company's cattle room. Other con-
tracts have been made with the Allan.
tic Transport line of New York, Phil
adelphia and Baltimore for the same
length of time. and with the National
line for two years. The negotiations
have been carried on by William Bow
err. formerly large cattle shipper of
this city. but who has of late been
in England. Schwarzschild & Sulz-
berger and Shamburg & Sons, the two
largest shippers in this city, who are
out of the syndicate, are shut of from
getting space on any of the vessels
that ply between here and London or
Liverpool. The only lines not con-
tracted for are the Wilson line to Hull
and the Allan line to Glasgow.
The prices at which the contracts
were made provide for the carrying of
cattle at forty shillings head, not
including at this rate any insurance
or fodder. A representative of
Schwarzschild & Sulzberger, in speak
ing of the effect that the corner on
shipping space would have, said to-
day:
Gas conservative business men we
did not feel warranted in making
large contracts in advance at 40 shil-
lings when competitors have been able
to obtain rates as low as 35 shillings.
The new arrangement may result in
our doing our business via other ports,
which will take the shipping of our
cattle entirely out of New York"
The cornering of the cattle trade
has led to negotiations for new line
of steamers to run between New York
and London.
