Jack Brehany is once more in town and
| is 10 be found at the Kenyon. Everyone
KNOWS Jack as being the Iineal descend
ant OF Llewellyn, the first king OF Wales ;
then, too, Brehany talks high Cambriam
with an American accent. The last time
Jhat he grdced Salt Lake with his pres
ence was on the occasion OF the visit of
, the famous Welsh prize singers who gave
1888, and succeeded in capturing the
town. on this trip he comes to town in
the capacity of advance agent of the
Nashville Students, who IN ali probability
viii give a concert at the Grand theatre
on Sunday night next. BTehany spent
most of the time at his disposal yesterday
~ ~, shSsklhg nands with his old friends IN
TINS city. He shines in the reflected light
or his wife, Louise Brehany, who is
known as being one Of the best ballad
singers On the American concert platform
| today.
E. J. Kearnes of Gunnison, Utah, rep
resenting A. j. Knollin & Co, dealers IN
sheep, when seen at the Kn-tSford last
night, stated that he DID noC expect to
see the prevailing prices Of wool keep up
for any further length OF time. In speak
Ing upon the subject he said: The pres
ent slump in the price of wool as indicat-
reports VIII
nave a decided tendency to bring down
the prices; in fact, there are already
signs of a break"
Kearnes is a great believer in the ex-
cellence Of the mutton of Utah bred
sheep. In speaking OF the consumption
OF mutton IN America today he said: The
general public is every day buying more
mutton for food than has been done IN
the past. At one time there was a de-
cided prejudice against that kind of meat,
but the public is getting bravely over il,
Tor ii is gradually dawning upon the
thrifty housewives that there is not near
ly the waste to mutton there is in an
ordinary joint OF beef"
In his time Kearnes -has bought and
handled a large number of sheep in Utah,
ana at the present time he is looking out
for $1,000 head of ewes TO ill an eastern
order.
Ernest Sharpe, of London, England, has
been resting up at the Kenyon after a
of conversation he said: THE greatest
effect Of the Boer war has been felt in
the English coal market War has not
been wholly responsible for the great rise
in prices, for the great activity in the
steel trade has helped. But the war and
the disturbance of the European political
situation that has resulted from it, added
quite i've shillings ton to the price Of
coal Every European nation wanted as
large stores Of coal as possible, in view
of possible trouble, and the markets got
Two other lines in which the war has
caused a permanent rise in prices are
the trade in preserved meats and in
| horses. Timed meats have risen because
or the enormous supplies wanted regular
~ at the front The great expectation of
horses has so cleared the market that
nags have gone up from five to ten pounds
in price
IN every trade that has been supplying
the troops there has been universal pros
perity. Biscuit factories have been work
ing day and night, while marmalade man
ufacturerS rejoice in orders from the gov
eminent for 10000 jars at a time. Horse
supplies, too, are in enormous demand.
One well known Midland firm did a very
clever thing In obtaining saddles. Weeks
before the saddlerS in general had dWak-
coming and so quietly went TO work and
rounded up the smaller concerns, with the
result that they agreed to I'LL certain or
derS for the firm, and now the concern is
making fortune"
Mr. Sharpe emphaticaIly denied the in
situation to the effect that in the Mid
land firm aforesaid there were in all prob
ability some energetic Americans.
