shanks for boiling
purposes and stews. Because of the high
price of beef the butchers are having a
greater demand for pork than ever be-
fore, but the price of this is becoming al
most prohibitive. Sirloin steaks bring
80 cents a pound, veal outlets % cents,
roast beef 25 cents, while but a few
years ago 10 cents would buy pound of
the best meat carried by the butchers.
Vegetables, like meats, have scared
skyward until they are almost out of
reach for the working classes. Potatoes
at $1.25 bushel are higher than at any
time since 1881. The same is true with
other vegetables and the staples in
northern grown fruits. Milk, butter and
lard have gone the same road other table
necessities have travelled, and are being
dispensed with as far as possible by the
economical housewife.
Fuel is more expensive by more than
ten per cent. than it was three years ago;
rents are up about Is per cent, and in
many of the staple lines of dry goods,
clothing and shoes there is noticeable
rise in prices For example, bleached
sheeting that sold for 16 cents a.yard in
1902 is now worth q cents yard. And
the end, it seems, is not yet

During the summer of 9S l was try-

During the summer of '98 l was trv-
ing to earn my living as tug boat re-
porter on the blockade line in front of
Santiago de Cuba. was doing the best
could and thought that was as active
as the other fellows, but one day re-
ceived a copy of Hearst's New York
Journal dated in May and telling in de-
tail of the battle of Santiago. l had not
heard of the battle and was wondering
how 1t had been pulled off without my
knowledge. | inquired of Commodore
Schley, but he was unable to give me the
desired information, nor could the Jour
nal men assigned to duty in those waters
aid me. One Of them finally allowed,
however, that some fellow in the New
York Office had had a psychic moment
at the wrong time. That eased my mind
and | hung around until the following
July, when the battle was finally fought"
Something of the same thing seems to
be the policy Of the Chicago American at
the present time. Taking it's cue from
the first attack ON Port Arthur this pa
per had practically the whole Russian
navy destroyed before the war was
week old, and not content with that it
had fought several big land battles be-
sides.
Berlin, Vienna, Paris and Shanghai
are noted centers for news CD Of the
startling variety. News stories from
these places are very much like the old
fable of the shepherd and the wolf. The
newspaper editor who is looking for
authentic reports seldom places any
credence in anything that comes from
them during times of great excitement.
In these places there are maintained
veritable news CD factories, which are
capable of turning out instantly any,
thing that is needed to sell papers, But
there is demand for the product of
these factories among certain class of
papers

quents the place
save at such time. The reference read
ing room is filled with them from the
opening to the closing hours. They have
no choice of books, but are content with
anything that will inform them in any
way in regard to either nation.
The statement that they have no
choice of books is not entirely true. Nine
out of ten applicants want works on ia
pan, and take books on Russia only as
secondary choice. This shows the pre-
ponderance of sympathy for the Mika-
dos empire in this city.
At the book stores and the book sec
tons of the department stores there is
a rush for works along these lines, and
the display windows are filled with them.
The manager of one Of the big book
stores told me few days ago that within
a week his house had sold some 1000
volumes relating to Russia or Japan,
and that the sale only stopped because
of the exhaustion Of the supply. Books
that have been packed away in store
rooms for several years, and regarded as
a loss, have been brought out and dis
posed of at a good price. In fact the
stores are practically denuded of works
on these lines, and while the Jap and
Russians are fighting for supremacy the
reading public of Chicago are acquiring
a lot of information in regard to them.

relied, she broke the engagement, and
last November Breen shot her in front
of Hull house.
For the first time in the history of ILL
nois a woman lawyer, Mrs. Antoinette
Funk, undertook the defense of a MUIR
derer. That is one reason why the case
attracted such widespread attention. A
second reason was the peculiar defense
which Mrs. Funk offered for her client,
that of 'propinquitive" insanity, she
claiming that Breen was rational save
when in the presence of the sweetheart
who had Tilted him, until after the shoot
ing, when he became permanently in
sane.
From the day of his arrest Breen
palyed the part of the maniac to per-
lection, and while portion of the ex-
pert testimony introduced by the state
to prove that he was shamming insisted
that such was the case, others were not
so confident, and some went SO far as to
say they believed the prisoner really in
sane. In her plea to the jury Mrs Funk
painted a brilliant word picture of the
agonies endured by the infatuated man
when his sweetheart broke their engage
nent. 1t was effective, and, together
with the actions of Breen in the court
room throughout the trial, carried the
jury by storm, and they brought in a
verdict of second degree murder, the
maximum penalty for which is IA years
Imprisonment.
The third sensation connected with
the trial came when Breen stood before
the bar to receive his sentence. He was
no longer the maniac he had been for
three months, but perfectly rational, and
confessed that he was shamming to save
his neck, in which he was successful.

gravest question of their guilt. Great as
is the expense connected with the con-
viction of a known murderer when he
wishes to make defense, it is but small
by comparison with theeXpense incurred
by the state where conviction must be Sc
cured through circumstantial evidence.
In such cases the attorneys for the de-
tense can tangle the skein OF evidence
offered by the state as fast, as rule,
as the attorney for the state can unravel
it. The Cronin case of 1890 is an evil
dence OF this, and it cost the state SS5, 900
before a conviction could be secured.
Another case is that of the sausage
maker. Luetgert, tried for the murder of
his wife. The police department, and
the states attorney had but little more
than theories to work on, and though the
public generally believed in the guilt OF
the accused, it was not proven to the sat
isfaction of jury of II men until after
the expenditure of an enormous sum by
the state.
The long-drawn out trials of such char
acters as the car-barn murderers is to be
regretted because OF it's effect upon the
community.
