Probable War in Africa Forces the
Prices Up.

on account Of the threatening aspect Of
affair On South Africa between Great Bri-
tain and the TNlnsraai Republic. the price
of mules and horses has been considerably
advanced.
The cause OF the rise is principally from
the fact that England is purchasing a
great number Of these animals I'm the
United States for her work I'm South Africa
should war be declared.
Smyth Bros. & Kline, of Richmond,
who handle large number Of horses and
mules, and who receive most OF their
stock from the Maxwell and Couch Mule
Company. OF The National Stock Yard,
say that they have just filed an order for
hfty-eight heavy mules and have another
Oh hand for fifty more. but that they re-
ceiyed a telegram from Maxwell q Couch
telling them not 10 make any prices on
mules until further notice, as the excite
ment caused by the attitude of the Eng
lish Government had caused a rise I'm the
prices and they would rise still higher.
Mr.. Smyth says that the prices of horses
has also risen. AS a war always caused
"a demand for these animals.
