PRICE OF SHOES 60 UP
Too Much Leather Used in Other
Ways Causes Pinch In
Footwear.

A great many people are wondering
why 1t is, with the 10 per cent tariff
removed from hides by he Payne-AIdrich
bill, that the price OF shoes has not
fallen correspondingly, or that the price
of prepared hides, instead of falling, has
advanced. According to M. s. Barnet.
president of the Barnet Leather COM
pany, ana Editor Brown of the Shoe and
Leather Reporter, $50 Nassau street, New
York, this advance il brought about by no
artificial causes. 1t Is simply the result
OF a great increase in the demand with
a ooincident decrease in the supply.
The advance has been tremendous, as
all dealers admit-from z to 20 per cent
above a year ago and from 20 to SO per
cent above two years ago. The ultimate
result to the shoe trade, II is believed,
will be an increase in priee-from IS to
rs cents a pair. probably, in higher
grades. The actual advance in the price
of hides over last year Is from IS to
20 per cent. This Is what Mr. Barnet
has to say of Il after three months care
full observation in Europe;
1.-THE reason of the high prices in aides
is that cattle are raised for consumption
and the demand for leather is constantly
increasing; manufactur srs are constantly
opening up now export fields, which take
so much more leather out OF the market.
There is no prospect OF lower prices in
1910.
THE population Of the world increases
much more rapidly han the raising Of
cattle; Japan and China and other eoun-
tries with their IN populations are
wearing more shoes made Of leather than
at any previous time. 1 found empty
Warehouses; abroad where there should
have been full ones, and more buyers

Regarding the increased demand for
leather in lines other than for shoes
Editor Brown pointed to the quantity
now used in automobiles as a striking
example.
"1n the last three years" he said
that industry has increased more thar
two-fold. Each automobile takes fog

CAU5E OF DISEASE
Iowa Woman Tells Why Ordinary Doc
tors Failed to Cure Her
Rheumatism.
THEY ONLY TREATED SYMPTOMS.
She Got No Relief Until the Cause Was
Removed by United Doctors
Treatment.

Here is an Iowa woman who tells the
true cause why so many doctors fail to
cure sick people, She says tina in her
case they were unable to reach the cause
or give her any satisfaction as to what
was the matter. with her. Too many
doctors are satisfied to treat the symp-
toms, and any fair minded. intelligent
person would know at once, that no dis
ease can be really cured unless the cause
is found and removed,
That is one reason Of the success of
the United Doctors. those expert medical
specialists who nave their Omaha Insti-
tute on the second floor of the Neville
Block, corner I6th and Harvey streets.
They always locate and treat the cause.
Thus their cures are real and lasting.
Such letters as the following are re-
eeived by the United Doctors every day
Dear Doctors: On May 2ath / came
to the United Doctors after suffering
with rheumatism, liver and other com
plants for quite awhile, l had tried a
humber Of other physicians who diagnosed
my case differently and each one gave
me a different treatment, but II seemed
as though none OF them could get down
20 the cause OF my disease. or could give
me any satisfaction as to what was the
matter with me.
When l came to the United Doctors.
the, doctor examined me and told !,
what was the matter with me and how
felt and that he could cure me in a short
time. l at once began treatment and now
feel like a rew woman. Before l cam,
TO these wonderful specialists I had spells
OF rheumatism every two weeks or so
but since l have been taking their med.

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

After resting comparatively quietly
since last Friday. Washington Gas again
today became a material feature in the
local market, a large block OF stock being
taken during the noon session of the
Washington Stock Exchange at prices
ranging from 7Jl: to 1os4. About 4JO
shares were sold, and considerably more
was offered at fractions above a. the
price which obtained last week, but no
offer to take the various lots was forth
coming.
Thomas L. Hume the broker who has
been the central figure during all of the
Gas movement, was out of the city yes
terday, but upon his return TO the moor
today he gave promise that the support
which he has been giving to the stock
will not lag.
Considerable demand has been in evil
dence for Lanston. and several ZINES
within the past few days the stock has
closely approached, though it has not yet
crossed, the mark of Is. 4 snort drive
occurred today, however. and sales were
made on the recedins market at 15*4, 1923
and finally at 15l@.
Washington Railway and Electric. both
common and preferred, was strong
throughout the exchange session. The
sales were not in great volume, but the
prices remained firm.
Much rejoicing is in evidence among
WASHINGTON holders of the stock of Gold
field Consolidated because the Tip" is
out that the pareE. company has bought
outright all of the subsidiary companies,
thus placing itself in a much stronger
position toward Wall street. 1t is pre-
dicted by students of the market that
the stock will Shcw decided advance IN
the very near future.

PROTEST OVER TAX PRINTING
COMMISSIONERS DECLINE TO
GRANT PUBLIC HEARING.
Property Clerk Hargrove Thinks
the Work Should Go to
Globe Company.

Protesting against the awarding OF the
contract for printing the list of sales for
taxes to other than the lowest bidder.
Attorney Charles T. Hendler. in behalf
of a client whose ide nifty is not revealed.
has asked the Commissioners TO grant a
public hearing before final decision is
made in the case. Upon the recommends
ton of Property Clerk NJ. c. Hargrove.
the Commissioners have refused the
hearing.
The bids received by the Commissioners
for printing the tax lists for next year
were as follows: Sudwarth Printing Com
pany. S743.5O; Carnahan Printing Com
pany. s7os.75 Globe Printing Company,
$3.50: Judd & Detweiler. Incorporated
1870: Wilkins-Shery Printing Company
$S57.5O.
Il recommend that the writer tAttorney
Hendler. who asked for d public hearinSl
be advised in substance that after
thorough investigation by the committee
designated by the Commissioners to make
recommendations to award of contract
OF the respective plants of those who bid
to print the tax lists. says Mr.. Har-
grove, 1T was the opinion that the best
interests of the District would be served
by awarding the contract to the Globe
printing Company, whose prices were
slightly in excess of those quoted by two
other bidders. for the reason that in It's
opinion the Globe Printing Company is
better equipped to do this work. and
owing TO the great Importance of getting
the same out on time and In the hands
OF the public by the date set by law, it
was not thought wise to take the chance
by making the award to firm whose
equipment was such as to tax II to its
fullest capacity in order to make deliv-
cry within the time as stated above.
Recommendation Approved.
After the facts as set forth by the
committee had been given full consider
alton by the board of Commissioners
they concurred in the opinion expressed
by the committee and approved its rec
ommendation. and inasmuch as the
Globe Printing Company has been noti-
fled by the Commissioners that its bid
has been accepted. the Commissioners
fail to see wherein any good purpose
would be served by granting the hearing
requested
In a memora ndum submitted to Com
missioner West, Property Clerk Hargrove
have only two typesetting machines
each, while the Globe Printing Company
has six. Because of its larger equip
ment, he says, he recommends that the
contract be awarded to the Globe Print
ing Company.
tinued Mr.. Hargrove, Il beg to say that
should this list not be gotten out on
time ] am advised by the corporation
counsel that it would invalidate any sale
which the Commissioners may make on
account of delinquent taxes of the prop
erty enumerated in the list, and that
this would result in a loss to the Dis
trict OF inward of $fOO 000'
