lev Asked about the markets. he said
that not in a long time has the stock
market been so firm and the demand for
stock so good as II Is to-day.
But I may say" said he. that nv
experience as q stock-dealer, which has
covered some thirty years. has taught
me that prices OF beef TO consumers rise
out Of all proportion 10 what the rise
IN the stock market is. But never has
that been so much the case as il is
to-day. Why, my observation has been
that when ever beef cattle rise one cent
per pound in the market the retail
dealer in meats puts up his pric four
cents per pound. 7 do not know who
makes the increase. whether IL is the
butcher or the retail dealer. but know
that the price goes up that way all
