MEAT PRICES GOING UP
Wholesalers Advance Prices and Re-
tailers Have or Will Fol-
low Suit. - 49,

Meats now cost more at some meat
stores in Minneapolis. At other meat
stores-the butcher shop" has disap-
peared-beef and mutton will probably
cost more very soon.
Because, as the dealers agreed this
morning, the wholesale price OF meat has
risen about 25 per cent within the last
four weeks. All the good cuts on the mar
ket are supplied by stall-fed cattle, whose
owners now feel that they should be re-
paid for the cost Of feeding the animals
thruout the winter. ~ Il
1--WE have advanced our retail prices IN
proportion with the advance of the whole
sale rates-that is, about Is per cent"
said a. prominent meat seller. ;"I expect a
further advance that will make 35 or 40
per cent in all.
1--WE can't expect any relief for ninety
DAYS. But by Aug. / first-class. grass
fed cattle will begin to come in, and the
fellows that own the feeders will no longer
control the situation. Then prices will
begin to drop off once more.
..We haven't changed our prices yet,
replied an officer of another firm, but we
shall probably have to- If wholesale rates
don't slacken off. We're paying the pack
| ers now at least 25 per cent more than
| they charged four weeks ago.
IF the advance is only temporary, we
| and other retailers will proba bly, do as
we've often doneIsell meat at an actua
| loss. But If the sitter figures hold we shal
| be compelled to make a higher charge tt
/ our customers: That won't worry en-
| guess. Meat may be going up bu

LARGEST CLASS YET AN AUDITORIUMIALK
Meeting Of Interested Citizens Held

Afternoon. -
Loring Park Versus a Downtown
Site-0pposing Opinions
Are Expressed.

Auditorium plans are being discussed
this afternoon at general meeting of in
terested citizens at the Commercial ciup.
The meeting was called at 4 p. m. Tor a
thoro discussion of the several phases
of the important question. 1t was held
at the instance of w. L. Harris, president
of the Retailers association; w. Y. Chute
of the public affairs committee OF the
Commercial club, and Lester B. Elwood.
president of the Minneapolis Real Estate
board.
Mr. Harris plan is for an auditorium
in Loring park. His idea is for the park
board to provide a site at no expense,
leaving the proceeds of the bodn issue
| to the amount of s15o.0O0, authorized by
| the legislature, to be devoted to build
! ing. "a
Lester Elwood says that he believes in
| central location. He velieveS that the
bond proceeds should be placed entirely in
| the building to be erected, on leased land
| for a long term of years, the income from
the auditorium to - applied on the
ground rent and taxes. Said Mr.. Elwood:
IT believe the building should be placed
where it will accommodate both sides
| of the river and be convenient to the
converging point of the street railway
lines" 49,
w. Y. Chute also believes in central
location downtown, SO near all the street
car lines that it can be reached wlthout
too much Inconvenience. Said he:
THE bond issue is novel thing to an
i American city and 1 don't know how the
: average taxpayer will look at the propo-
i sition. But do not know why the peo-
4 pie should not be called upon for a thing
Of this sort. It will practically serve
1 nearly all the people and 1 don not see
8 why they should not contribute for part
4 of it'd am opposed to using park. for
{. anything but outdoor purposes. Our
boulevard system is good but our inside
;, park space is small. ~

Address by Rev. DR.. J. E. Bushnell
Ivy From Historic Vine
and Church.

Class No. of Westminster Sunday
school had an ivy planting at the church,
Twelfth street and Nicollet avenue Sat-
urday afterb oon. Rev. DR.: John E. BUSH
ness gave a short outdoor talk on IVY
planting in general, relating instances
connected with old ivies t,on historic
churches which he had seen and served.
In place of j. S: Porteous, Superintendent
of the Sunday school, r. Is. Ioml1nson
Jr., gave a short talk
This class, of which Andrew Benton is
leader is composed Of nine boys and one
honorary member, who were graduated
together from the intermediate class ano
still hang together. It has remembrance

inscribed his name In it have writer

field and so on. AS further remem
brance the class determined to begin thu
owrk of training ivy over the white stone
walls Of Westminster.
Woodbine was planted on the Twelfth
street side Of the church and ivy on tn
Nicollet avenue side.
The ivy from which one slip was takel
| has history. Some years ago a slip
! ivy was brought from Mount Vernon an
rooted in the old burial ground OF OF
| Pine Street church in Philadelphia. :. |
grew luxuriantly and from it many plant
have been propagated. This old church
was founded in 1853. It's founder, D1
| George Duffield. was a chaplain in Georg
| Washington's army and a self-appointe
! recruiting officer of 100 soldiers from hi
| congregation. In fact, thes British gov
ernment offered 80 pounds for his head.
The church was used by. the British lfo
| a. hospital and stable for officers horses
The sixth pastor of this. church, Dl
| Thomas Brainerd, sent 100 men from hi
| congregation to the civil war;. Aroun
the church is the most historic buris
ground of Presbyterians in Philadelphia
The pastor of the church, Hughes; G
Gibbons, believes that it is fitting, con
sidering his history of the Third or OF
Pine Street. church, that it should be cor
tinued for. all time. and the Westminste
class will perpetuate it's memory in tn
west by this ivy planting.

NOTHING DOING TILL FALL
Small Prospect That Supreme Court
Will Take Up No. Securities
Case Right Away.

From The Journal Bureau, Room IS, Post Build.
ing, Washington.
Washington D. c., April 27.-It was ex-
pected that some move would be made In
the supreme court to-day to bring up the
Northern Securities case, but no motion
was made. Chief Justice Fuller an
nounced that the call Of the docket would
be suspended until Friday, that opinions
would be handed down next Monday and
final adjournment taken Monday, June l.
He announce dthat sother meeting days
to deliver opinions and receive motions
would be determined during the coming
week. 1t is probable that only one day
will be assigned for this purpose, about
the middle of May. This action Of the
court makes 1t entirely probable that
nothing will be done in the Securities
case until fall.

OF REVOLUTIONARY STOCK
His Ancestors Migrated From Wales In
Colonial Times.

Darius r. Morgan was born in 1854 i'll
jackson county, Iowa. His paternal an
cestors were New England farmers, VINO,
migrating from Wales about the middle
of the eighteenth century, played a con-
spicuous part in the revolution. By-ehls
mother Ruth Duprey, of Meadville, Pa, ne
was descended from a French Huguenot
family, which in early colonial times hed
from persecution at home to the hospit-
able shores of the new world. His father,
Harley Morgan. was a native of Yer
gennes, VT, but in 1872 brought his fam
lily west to the Mississippi valley, settling
first in Jackson county and fourteen years
later in Winneshiek county, Iowa, IN
which latter county young Morgan spent
his boyhood and youth, and laid the
foundation of a substantial education IN
the common schools. In 1876, until which
time he had lived with his father, working
on the farm in summer and going to
school in winter, he began to study law
and in the fall of 1877 he was admitted to
the bar at Austin, Mimi, which city had
now been his home for almost a year and
where he supported himself as student
as a reporter in Judge Pages court. A
