FOOD PRICES
ARE AWAY UP
Housekeepers in Despair Over
the Continued Advance in
Rate of Foodstuffs.

! Housekeepers are in despair over
the increase in the prices of practi-
cally all the supplies used in the
household. Following the upward
course of the price of beef, the quo
tations of practically all the
articles of staple consumption in
daily life have shown a steady ad-
| vance which gives no sign of coming
to an end. While there have been
fluctuations from time to time in
prices,~it has happened usually that
when decline has come the old
level has been overtaken and passed
before consumers have had an op-
portunity to congratulate them
selves on the reduction.
In some instances the increase in
prices is due to natural causes,
such as the high price of corn, fol-
lowing the short crop year ago.
This scarcity has enhanced the cos
of cattle and poultry to some ex-
tent. and the Beef Trust seized the
opportunity to raise quotations far
beyond the level which would have
marked their highest point if the
law of supply and demand had been
permitted to work without interfer-
ence.
Other articles such as sugar and
kerosene, are absolutely in the con-
troll Of combinations which are able
to raise or lower their price at will.
In the extreme advance of coal
and OF beef, owing tc especial causes
the lesser increase in the prices of
other necessities has attracted COM
paratively little attention. Sigh t
as these advances are in some n.
stances. however, in the aygrega tie
they entail a heavy drain Oh the
resources Of consumers. In city
of SO 900 persons tho increase in
the necessary expenditure, even
with economical buying, must un.
avoidably amount to nearly ono
million dollars a year.
So far as the shortage of corn
enters into the higher range of
prices, there is no immediate pros.
pect of relief, The stocks of cattle
and poultry were greatly depleted
by forced selling when the scarcity
first made itself felt last year, and
this loss has not yet been made up.
Although the corn crop Of lthe pres
ent year was large, in some impor-
tant localities the cornwas prevent
ed from hardening to marketable
quality, and consequently less bene-
fit will be derived from the abund-
ance than wasexpected.

TRUSTEES DISCUSS LOSS.
Explain why Insurance Was So Low and
Plan to Rebuild Institution

Explain Why Insurance Was So Low and
Plan to Rebuild Institution.
The trustees of the workhouse
met at the office of j. Frank Ball
this morning and for two hours
considered the situation. They de-
cidel that for the present tenn.
porary roof should be erected over
the south and central wings of the
building. Bids for he work will be
advertised for and the rebuilding
commenced as soon as possible.
The loss connot be computed at
present. The reason that the in
Surance was only 100000 was that
the Trustees believed such an
amount was sufficient on supposed
fire proof building. Moreover fire
insurance companies are not willing
to insure penal institutions The
Trustees cannot ascribe Il cause for
the fire.
The electric switch was turned off
at o'clock, at which time every
thing was all right At the time,
the boy firebug, now a prisoner at
the workhOuse, was in his cell.
The Trustees are at the burned
building this afternoon.
Oppenheimer Brothe ers, who own.
ed the clothing machinery in the
workhouse, attended the meeting Of
the Trustees, and accompanied them
to the workhouse this afternoon.
They will have new machinery in
the building within 10 days.

Roosevelt reappointed District AT

gress, a few days after the last elee-
tion.
This occurrence has been dis
torted out of all proportion to its
Importance, but, while most of the
Democrats and all of the anti-Ad-
dicks Republicans, still believe that
the appointment has already settled
the next Presidential election, and
not a few think all events in history
will date from what they still per-
Bist in designating "the Presidents
surrender to Addicks," there are
signs that the administration may
cease to be an issue about the time
the Legislature meets in Dover in

two vacant United States Senator

be "Addicks,' as it has been for
twelve long years.

bitter as those which have rent the
