Park Commissioner Ridgely submitted an

NEW PARISH TO BE FORMED.
Father O'Leary Will Build Church
at WellstOn.

Archbishop Kahn has decided to divide ST.
Roses Parish. located west of Union boule-
ward and north OF Forest Park, and to
build a new church in the Wellston district.
He has appointed the Reverend C. F.
OLeary Of Macon. Mo-. to procure a site
Tor the church and provide for its erection.
II Is also expected that Father O'Lsary will
be gwen charge OF the new parish.
When All SAINTS Parish was formed, tax
ifg a portion OF St Roses Parish on the
west, Il was stated that a church would be
built In Weliston, but the Bishop did not
make up his mind in regard TO the matter
until recently.
One Of the reasons which impelled the
Archbishop to act, it is stated. is that ST.
Roses Church, as at present constructed, -
not large enough to accommodate the con-
gregation. More than 800 families live in the
parish. If the parish was not divided the
church would have to be enlarged, in the
near future. This wou d entail much ey-
pense. as the church would have to be made
longer and higher. Its present style Of
architecture calls for a low building which
would be out of proportion, It is stated, il
the church were extended without being
made higher.
About 100 Catholic families reside in the
district which will be allotted to the new
church. Father O'Leary. it Is stated. has
visited the district and conferred with some
of the Pensioners In regard to the project,

MANY BUTCHER SHOPS CLOSE.
Small Dealers Declare Patrons
Cannot Pay Present Prices.

More than a hundred st. Louis retail
butchers have been forced to suspend bust
ness. at least temporarily, owing to the
present high prices of beef. attributed to a
combine OF the large packing-houses.
All those who have been affected are small
dealers, depending for their support upon
small sales. Besides high prices. the dealers
say, they have to compete will wagons OF
the large companies, which, they claim. are
being sent over the city, selling meat
cheaper than they can afford to.
At d gathering of butchers at Zeller's
Hall. Taylor and Delmar avenues, steps
were taken to form a protective associa-
ton to fight the combine. Cooperative
shops were spoken of as being the best
means to check, what they term, extortion
on the part of the packers.
