REEF PRICES ARR CUT..
General Fall in Values Predicted Af.
ter Packers Lop on Ten Per Cent.


3 Chicago.-A general fall in values
and prices of all f~oodstuffs, due to
peculiar trade conditions and not to
the present financial furry, was pre-.
dicted by Edward A. Cudahy; the
packer, in Omaha, where the packing
houses announced a general reduc-
ton of ten per cent. in the prices OF
all meats. Still further reductions,
it was stated, are expected.
Even before Mr.. Cudahy's predic-
ton reached Chicago q slight de-
crease in meat. values was noticeable
in the Union Stock Yards OF this city,
the same condition occurring stimuli
~taneously in other packing centres Of
the country.
In many places an oyersupply OF
cattle in the hands of drovers seek
ing a market for their wares became,
apparent.
THE customary purchases varied
in no manner from the daily average
during the day" declared Edward
Morris. "To my knowledge owners
of cattle have accepted the customary
checks without hesitation. From my
observation Irconid not say that
general fall in prices Of foodstuhs is
coming"
There has been a slight falling off
OF meat values, but nothing of a very
marked nature" asserted j.. Ogden
Armour. sDroVers have been offered
a slightly lower rate for the goods
and will have to accept the present
market conditions"

Revoke Their Licenses Says This
Writer.

A great many suggestions have
been made as to how the reckless
chauffeur is to be controlled, for, af-
ter all, that is really the cruz Of all
friction. Filming me of this type has
proved of little effect, fer so small a
6ne IS has been exacted is Included
IN the expense of the days fun. &
have been an advocate of haprison-
nert instead of fine for cases CT van
ton recklesspess, and / am still an al
vocate cf Imprisonment where the
culurit is either criminally reckless
Or a repeated ofeRder. At the same
time 1 believe that the suggestion OF
l reversible license, put forth fy the
! Automobile Clubs Committee Of Puo-.
&c Safety, is, as a general rrcposi-
ion, the faiyest ali-rsund solution q
the problem. A reFokabie iceEs3-
law would worx both wars. Il wol1tI
saferuard the sowEer, whether lie oG
IF the AFRAID ofhis-chauEeur type or
IF that ether wi1ca ENCOURAGES reck-
less speed. The practical wcrkirg O.
such a plan would be to take bis l.
sense from the arrested ehaaffeurr
which would deprive him OF PROBES
sional standing--and employment
since it is to be supposed that no ogEn-
sr would employ a chauffeur under
such conditions. 1t would also tempo
| rarily deprive the owner CT a driver
sometimes this might work to inc
oz-Ps discomfort, but most times II
would be probably a WeHfesefTeF
rebuke.-0utirg.
