MEAT PRICES BOOSTED AGAIN,
An Advance From q Half to Five

An Advance From q Half to Five
Cents Pound in New York.
New York, April 6.-Retailers have
again put up all meat prices from half
to five cents pound, and when the
housewife goes to the market she will
find the new scale Of prices in effect
Porterhouse steaks that have hereto
fore been 80 cents a pound will be So
cents, and sirloins that have been %,
will be 80 cents. Round steaks that
could have been bought for % cents
pound last week will be 23.
Mutton will remain the same,
while spring lambs is to be found in
the market in small quantities at S5
cents pound for the rib chops, and
80 cents a pound for the breast for
roasting purposes.
Pork has taken tremendous jump
since the meat prices began to rise
ten days ago, and chops are now
bringing Is cents pound. There are
scarcely any pork tenderloins in the
market, while roasting pork is bring
ing 16 to Is cents a pound
Talks with wholesale dealers de-
veloped the fact that there is not
likely to be any further change in the
prices for month. About the first
of May the cattle raisers of the coun-
try will be able to ship to the markets
some grass fattened cattle and this
Will make the supply somewhat
greater. There are no cornfed cattle
on the farms and ranches to speak
of, and those that the farmers have
are being held back and shipped
gradually so as to get the advantage
of the high prices now prevailing.
The export of cattle is practically
at standstill. Where there were
heretofore thousands of cattle sent
abroad at this season Of the year. the
ships are going across practically
shippers are paying their contract
prices on the meat just the same as
if it was shipped, saying that it is
cheaper for them to do this than to
go out into the markets and buy meat
on the hoof at the extremely hirh
prices now prevailing.

CABINET CHANGES.
10 Follow Retirement OF Campbell.
Zimmerman Are Discussed.

London, April 6.--An informal con-
ference or ministers under the presi-
oency OF Herbert H. Asquith, chancei-
,Ir OF the exchequer, was held prior to
ne commencement of today's sitting
OF parliament and the situation was
discussed In general way. The pre-
nler-eiect asked to hear the views of
MS colieagues relative to the prospec-
I've caplneI changes, now that the
actually materialized. In view of the
lack OF success at the recent elections
the cabinet will be rearraneed so as to
AVOID as far as possible the election
contests made necessary when the
members Of the house Of commons or
holders of under secretaryships are
elected to cabinet rank.

BOARD OF trade. is still a hot fayorite

ments, as Mr.. Asquith will retain the

cess. Should Mr.. Birrell, the chief
secretary for Ireland. be slated for a

tnat John Burns. now president of the
local government board, would be
quite content to replace Mr.. Bfrrell as
mead OF the Irish office. 1t seems quite
likely that Mr.. Lewis Harcourt,N who is
considered something of an American

cabinet lists. The elevation OF

radical complacent enough to give I'D
safe seat to which Churchill could
be elected.
Apart from forecasting the new cab
met. the discussion in the house Of
commons lobby today turned chiefly
on the probable effect of Campbell
Bannerman's retirement on the minis
ter1al coalition. 1t is undisputed that
the ex-premfer's tact and popularity
were the moral bond holding together
the influential but somewhat discord-

SETTING OF EGGS FOR CARNEGIE
Is Spoiled on the Voyage Across the

over the Lucania got such jostling
by the seas that she had to halt at
times to keep the crests from over
whelming her. Meanwhile the en-
bryonic Minorcas were getting into a
condition that promised to make it i'm
possible for them to become natives
of America.
Irving still had hopes when he got
here, but Customs Inspector Rowland
Story, who is a breeder of fancy chick
ems. told him that no alien Minorcas
would ever come out Of those eighteen
eggs because they had been added by
the pitching and tossing of the ship.
The Inspector said that II the trip had
been a few days longer, Irving would
have had merely a large omelet.

TRIUMPH FOR DUP0NTS,
Delaware Will Send an Uninstructed
Delegation to Chicago.

Dover. Del, April 6.-The victory of
the state organization Of the Republi-
can party headed by United States
Senators Dupont and Richardson at
Saturdays primaries, was so over
whelming as attested by today's sum-
mary of the voting that there is not
likely to be any hitch In carrying out
the organization program at the Re-
publican state convention which will
be held here tomorrow to elect dele
cations to the national convention. The
leading feature of the program is to
permit the state delegations to the ma
tional convention to go to Chicago un-
hampered by instructions and free to
vote for any candidate for president.
1t is now conceded that the organiza-
ton has elected 100 of the 100 dele
gates composing the state convention.
The outcome of the primaries makes
it sure that four of the six delegates
to the national convention will be as
follows: y .n Ger
From Newcastle county-Senator
Dupont and Governor Lea.
Kent county-Senator Richardson.
s. Sussex county-Cong gresham Burton.
The other two, delegates will be Sc
lected by the caucus-of leaders prelim-
mary to the convention, which will be
held here tonight. 1t is assured that
T. Coleman Dupont, chairman Of the
RepuDnCdn state Will po Sc
lected as the Delaware member of the
Republican national committee to sue
coed J. Edward Addicks.
The preference Of the national dele
gates for the presidential nomination
are a matter of doubt. The organiza-
ton leaders maintain that they have
no hostility to Secretary Taft, but on
the other hand may favor him, al
though they will not consent to in
structions.
It is understood. however, that the
Duponts and Senator Richardson are
very friendly to Senator Knox (Pa.).
Not much thought has been given to
the platform nor is it probable that 1t
will contain much in addition to an en-
dorsement Of the Roosevelt admins
tration. Another state convention for
the nomination Of candidates for rep
resentatiye in congress and governor
and other state officers, will be held
in August or early September, and
upon this convention will develop the
work Of building a platform which will
express In detail the views of the Re
nublicans of Delaware upon national
and state issues.

Per Capita Cost of Cnicago's Unem
ployed During Winter.

Chicago. April 6.-In the Chicago
board of health bulletin the relief
work for homeless men undertaken
during the winter by the municipal
lodge house is reviewed.
After recalling the necessity Of such
institutions during the cold months on
account of the prevailing conditions,
the bulletin states that the city made
especial efforts to provide places of
shelter and also food for men out of
work, with the following results:
1.-THE Chicago public was pro-
tected against contagion.
"2-The homeless men were kept
clean, healthy and free from suffering.
"3-Some unworthy, idle and drift
ing criminals were forced out Of Chi
cago.
"4-some innately honest but weak
men were shielded from being driven
into crime.
SIT was demonstrated that men
can be sufficiently fed for health and
strength for less than seven cents a
day:
medical supervision can be done for 9
cents day."

Character Sketch Of the Admiral

OF Admiral Robley D. Evans given by

California.
She was accompanied by her daurh-
ter, Mrs. c. C. Marsh. of Washington.

IN command Of all the torpedo boats
and submarines in the navy
You see,'' continued Mrs. Evans,
my husband always responds with
alacrity to the demands of duty which
call him to the bridge. but he is far
less enthusiastic in answering the de-
mands Of that other duty which calls
him to the banquet hall or the ball
room.
He finds dinners and dances and re-
cept1ors very trying after hard period
of duty on the bridge. During the voy-
age around the Horn he has been en-
tirely unable to attend many of the
festivities arranged so Iavishly in hon
or of the fleet. The rheumatism from
which he has been suffering has both
cred him great deal on the voyage
He has been subject to these rheuma-
tic attacks for many years, and so I
am not so anxious about him as though
they were something new.
Il have had recent word from him,
and am thankful indeed to be able to
say that he now is feeling a great deal
better. The rheumatism is rapidly dis
appearing, and he is generally in much
better condition than he was a short
time ago.
Mrs. Evans and Mrs. Marsh will go
first to Los Angeles, where they will be
the guests of the Los Angeles commit
tee which is entertaining the battleship
fleet.
After the festivities at Los Angeles
Mrs. Evans and her daughter will Join
the admiral at Paso Robes later going
to San Francisco.
Mrs. Evans and Mrs. Marsh left for
Los Angeles over the Santa Fe last
night and will be at their destination
