RAILROAD RATES HIGHER
New Tariff Will Become Effective ON
August 1 In This Territory.

few weeks ago notice was given
by the Southeastern railways that an
increase of the rates on meats would
be made into South Carolina territory
from the Ohio and Mississippi river
crossings. This announcement is Of
special interest to Charleston people.
especially the house-keepers, since
there will be an effect upon the mar
ket price Of beef. On August / this
notice, filed with the interstate COM
mission. will be put into effect on the
Southeastern railroads on meats and
all commodities, Of Southern classifi-
cation, from the Western sales mar
kets. The increase amounts to three
cents per hundred on class B, and
two cents per hundred on classes G.
and d. These increases are on pack
Ing house products, grain and flour
In barrels and sacks. On fresh meats
1t Is likely that an increase based ten
cents over the rate on class B COM
modities will eventually be made.
In reference to the influence that
this increase in rates on meat has
with regard to the local market, a
Well known King street dealer was
seen this morning. II have received
no advice" said the market man,
=" from my Western representatives re.
garding this increase in rates, coming
into Charleston on packing house
goods. but have heard the rumor.
The change may have some effect upon
the local market, but just at present
the situation is bright for the consum-
er.. Beef was lowered In price one.
half cent. and lamp nearly two, while
veal remains about the same. The ham
and bacon market has advanced slight
ly in the past thirty days.
"You can Just say" continued the
meat man. that though the market
In Charleston has remained firm, even
eased up for the housekeepers in sew
eral cases. the price of meat from the
packing houses for us has advanced
two cents, besides an increase in the
price and consumption Of ice, a nee
essary adjunct to our business"
Reports from the Western houses
verify the statement that the stock
yards are becoming crowded with
grass cattle, from Kansas and Mon
tana. and this additional stock was
supposed to increase the cattle
enough so as to decrease the price Of
meat. However, the newly arranged
rates on Western beef. Effective on
August 1, will counterbalance this re-
duction in the price of beef and it is
safe to state that the local market will
remain firm during the winter as II
has during the past summer.-Char-
