READY RESULTS IN REDUC-
TIONS BY DEALERS

| CHICAGO, Jan. 21.-The movement
| to combat the high prices of meat
spread rapidly today and is assuming
a national character Coincdent with
| the growth of the movement came an
nouncements from Milwaukee and
| Cleveland that the price of meat had
| dropped.
In Milwaukee two retail butchers
| quoted porterhouse steaks at 10 cents
pound, sirloin at the same price
and other meats in proportion. The
wholesale price of beef fell off Is
cents a hundred pounds in Cleveland.
From Denver came the report that
Sam Dutton, president of the Western
Hotelmen's Protective association an
nounced that the proposition of cut
ting down the consumption of meat
would be brought before his organiza-
ton at a meeting to be held here on
January 81.
Dispatches from Baltimore, Milwau-
kee, Kansas City, Memphis, Omaha,
Pittsburg and other cities told of the
: rapid growth Of the movement.
Cleveland, credited with being the
place of origin of the scheme, now has
10000 names enrolled in the crusade
while Kansas City reports that it may
soon have $4,000.
The heads of leading packing hous
es of Kansas City and Chicago refus-
ed to discuss the effect of the move
ment upon their business.
Edward Tilden, president of the Ma
tional Packing company declared to-
night that farmers are to blame for
the increased cost of meat He said
the packer has been forced to raise his
prices in accordance with the raise de-
maded by the farmers or loose money
with the exception of pork" said
Mr.. Tilden, there is nothing in the
meat line so correspondingly high as
wheat, corn and other farm products.
Other things all along the line are
higher than beef"

New York In Line.

NEW YORK, Jan. 21-There was no
indication at a meeting of the Contra!
Federated Union here tonight that a
meat boycott by union workmen OF
New York is in sight On the other
hand, many retail dealers said today
that such a boycott though not for
mally declared, is actually in effect
now. Within the last fortnight their
sales have been cut in half. Whole
sale meat dealers were inclined to ridi-
cule the boycott movement. Represen-
tatives of Swift and company, Morris
and company and the Cudahy COM
pany declined to be quoted. but took
the attitude OF laughing the whole
matter off.
