Wilson Believes.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.-James
Wilson. secretary of agriculture,
agrees with Charles w. Armour, the
Kansas City meat packer, to certain
extent, in the belief that lower prices
for meat food may prevail in this
country very soon. The willy Scot,
however, says merely that meat prices
should drop, and he makes the
further reservation that his view holds
(. only if combines shall not be form
ed TO maintain prices artifcially
Mr.. Armour is quoted in an inter
view Friday at Kansas City as saying
food prices are working toward
lower basis Secretary Wilson said:
"We have had bumper crops, and
meat prices should come down; that
is. if no combine is formed among
the dealers. My views apply to all
kinds of meat.
''The crops have been such that 6
falling in prices should be the in
evitable result. The only tntng that
can defeat this will be that too great
a toll is taken after the products
leave the hands of the farmers ant
before they reach the consumers"

on learning of the decline III other
cities During the first Of the year,
when prices were high, the farmers
