COST or LIVING SCARS.
Trade Authority Finds TFiat It Rose

Trade Authority Finds TFiat II Rose
Two Dollars In Fast Month.
New York, Dec. 7.-If you find that
you are 50 short in your monthly ae-
count you need not think you have
been extraYagant during the past four
weeks. Every one, according to fig
ures compiled by R. G. Dun g. Co.,
had TO pay 50 more to live during the
month ending Dec. than they did the
month previous.
In the lapse OF one month the cost
Of living has advanced from $106. .6e
to S108.17, reached on Dec. /. The
cost Of commodities is the highest
since February, 1884.
The marked advance in prices is ex-
planned as due to the higher cost of
butter, eggs milk. dairy and garden
products. Breadstuffs were lower on
account of the decline In wheat and
corn. Meats. with the exception of
i've beef, were fractionally lower, and
a small decline occurred in mess pork;
bacon, live hogs, lard and tallow. But
ter is up 8 cents pound, eggs, 7 cents
a dozen and hay 121a cents hundred
pounds.
In discussing the subject the trade
authority says the rise in prices is
fairly representative of the greater
demand that has followed Increased
prosperity throughout the nation and
because of the advances In wages
which has lifted the purchasing pow
er of the people a. oye all previous
records in this or other nation"

Stomach Suffers

Che world is full of disordered ston-

spent upon physicians and drugs goes

People are made TO believe that in
order to gain health they must doctor
their stomachs and use cathartics. SO
the doctor gets his fee for the stomach
treatment and the druggist for the

the result of over eating, hurried mas

The mucous lining ali the way down
the food tract loses its sensitiveness,
and when food is forced down the
muscles fail to respond. They do not

p. O. CLARK, a superintendent in one
OF the Union Pacilic's subsidiary coal
companies. is alleged to have given
much damaging evidence in relation
70 how the coal lands were obtained,
which may have an important effect ia
the criminal prosecutions planned.
Railroad Trust Alleged.
e. III. Hartman of New York is at
the head of the Union Pacific system,
and George Gould is the head of the
Southern Pacific. The government suit
against the concentration OF these
great railroad interests will seek to es-
tablish proof of an effort to "syndi-
cate'' the railroad interests of the great
west and southwest in restraint Of
trade and free competition.
It is intimated that President Roose-
welt, aware of what eySAenee had been
obtained in the preliminary iIlyestiga-
tion, was inauced TO reeomzschd III his
message to congress that the govern
ment should hold its own local lands.
It is understood to be the govern
ment's intention to seek to dissolve
the working agreement between the
Hartman and Gould lines, just as the
Northern Securities merger was dis
solved.
It is charged that the entire traffic
arrangements of the two systems are
under the direction of one official, ,. G.
StHbbs, who receives $4,000 a year.
Numerous parallel and competing lines,
it viii be shown, have been absorbed
and placed in the same pool Of commu-
nifty of interest by the HarriHlan- Gould
financiers.
The Hartman system alone has 23,-
600 miles of railroad, with a total cap
ital Of $2,000,000000, and traverses
seventeen states. The Gould system,
while not as large. is Of vast influence
and extent.

announced public consistory. In an

The illness Of Cardinal sammassa of
