Biggest Demand Ever Known For
American Cattle.
BOOM FOR STOCK RAISERS
PREDICTED THAT PRICES WILL
BE HIGHER NEXT YEAR.
Pork, Mutton, Veal and Dried and
Smoked Meats Are Also On the
Advance-Heavy Exports to Eu-
rope Being Made, the Cause of
the Upward Movement.

Chicago Aug. 1.-THE Record says:
Investigation at the stock yards in re-
gard to the recent advances in the price
of beef brought out the statement that
never before in the history of the
American cattle market has there been
such a demand for all kinds of meat as
at the present time. The demand for
export cattle is enormous. The state
ment is made that the prices of all
cattle will be higher next year than
they are now, but in three years, when
all the thousands of feeders find their
way into the market, there is likely TO
be a slump of from to cents.
This year Kansas has 100000 head of
cattle, which is a record breaker for
that state. The big ranches in Mon
tana, Wyoming, North and South Da-
kota are sending cattle at present.
Most benefited by the increase in prices
is the stock raiser. At present every
thing costs more alive than formerly,
making 1t necessary for the packers to
advance the prices on all dressed
meats.
The prices quoted yesterday to local
butchers was 3 cents a pound for best
straight beef in the whole carcass and
Az cents a pound for loins and ribs.
when together in even sets. One lot
of sixty barrels of the latter was sold
at 15I2 cents pound.
All other meats have been more or
less affected. Prices have gone up in
pork. mutton, veal and all dried and
smoked meats.

CAUSE OF THE RISE.
Heavy Shipments of Cattle to the
Foreign Markets.

New York. Aug. IA representative
of the firm of Nelson, Morris & Co.,
when asked as to the cause of the rise
in the price of beef said to a World re-
porter:
THE advance here is caused by the
efforts of the American packers of
Australian beef in the English markets
TO substitute American beef instead.
We want that business, and in order to
secure it we are shipping immense
quantities of beef to England.
Just now the business abroad is be-
ing carried on at heavy loss because
we are cutting prices to kill COMPETE
ton. The consequence is that the ex-
port of American beef is very much
heavier than ever before. Naturally
under these conditions there is less beef
for the home trade, although there are
as many cattle for the market as ever.
There is no real shortage in market
able cattle. all reports to the contrary
Notwithstanding. The receipts at the
yards in Kansas City, Omaha and Chi
caSo yesterday were large.
The foreign demand being very
heavy, as 1 explained, the prices to
cattle dealers, as well as to butchers,
are high. The packers are not reaping
any great rewards. The recent heavy
shipments to the cattle yards may ease
the strain a little, but l do not look for
lower prices.
The remedy for complaining butch
ers is simple. They must raise prices.
I have not heard any complaints from
consumers. The butchers are COM
planning and they must work out their
salvation by getting more money for
their beef They must get together and
keep up their prices with the general
advance if they really want to protect
themselves"

COL. KAIGHN SAYS SALT LAKE
MAY LOSE ENCAMPMENT.
Business Men Should Get to Work at
Once-Ogden He Reports Enthu-
siastic For the Convention.

Colonel NJ. NJ. Kaighn returned yes
terday from ogden where the evening
before he delivered an address in behalf
of the movement TO secure the next
years national G. a. r. encampment
for Salt Lake. He reports a splendid
meeting and a degree of enthusiasm on
the part of the Ogden people that is
most encouraging.
But" said the colonel. 1.-The time for
action is very short. If something is
not done at once by the business men
of Salt Lake, our chance is gone and
may never return in our day. Mayor
Clark should call a meeting of bust
ness men early next week, committees
should be appointed and actual work
begun at once"
Colonel Kaighn says further that the
railroads that have so much at stake
in this matter should take hold of the
work with more Zest. He gets strong
assurances of help from other states,
but this will go for nothing if the peo-
pie at home don't work.

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.
Wheat Was Active at Chicago With
Small Amount of Trading.

Chicago. Aug. 1.-THE opening in wheat
was marked by a good deal or strength
and a decidedly small amount of trading.
Spectators again were Influenced by the
action of the Liverpool market, when
showed an advance of S443sd, and opening
prices for September here Were LuSsc
higher at 7Lc. Besides the firmness of
Liverpool the market had Tor support
reports of heavy rains in some sections Oh
the northwest with consequent damage
, to wheat uncut and in the shock There
was a moderate demand from shorts VINO
feared the opening advance would be FOL
lowed by still higher prices. Offerings

followed. but the decline was stubbornly
fought and as soon as reahzlnS was over
the price shot upward in a hurry, touch
ing 1ssc before the balance OF trading
was again in favor of the sellers.
The market in the main was dull during
the morning. with occasionally lively
spots. Several reactions occurred. but
the price at no time got below nAc and
in the afternoon the rapidly increasing
cash business injected life into the mar
ket and made il much broader. Shorts

satisfied with their profits, and let go of
enough wheat TO more than satisfy the
demand. The close was firm at il%s91l1sc

Corn was firm and closed at slight
advance. though best prices Were not
maintained. September closed 1sdAc
higher.
oats. as usual. were very dull but firm

JACOBSEN FOUND GUILTY. y
Junk Man Convicted of Receiving
Stolen Goods.

Reinhard Jacobsen, the junk man,
who was arrested two or three days ago
for receiving stolen goods, was yester-
day found guilty by Judge Timmony.
Jacobsen was represented by Charles
Baldwin. while Assistant County Attor-
ney Gunter prosecuted the case officer
Gillespie, Junius Thomas, George Wal
lter and Orson Thomas testified that
Jacobsen had bought about eighteen
dozen of the new sash pulleys for 10
cents, while the retail price is so cents
a dozen. The boys testified further
that they had stolen the pulleys from
James Whitaker. The defense con-
tended that Jacobsen had no knowledge
of the fact that the goods were stolen,
and attempted TO prove that the pull
leys were good for nothing but old
iron
By careful leading, Attorney Gunter
drew an admission from Jacobsen that
he bought goods from anybody without
asking any questions. 1t didn't mat
ter how young a person was, or how
valuable the goods were, no questions
were asked.
IF these same boys had come to you
with a sack full If diamonds for 10
cents would you take them" asked
Mr.. Gurter. and Jacobsen said Yes
Judge Timmony found him guilty and
sentence will be imposed today.
