VARIOUS REASONS ASSIGNED TO
THIS By CHICAGO COMMITS
SION MEN,
Big CROPS IS THE CAUSE
LARGE RECEIPTS OF LIVE STOCK
At THE STOCK YARDS AN
OTHER CAUSE.
J. Ogden Armour Says That the Pub
lie However Must Not Expect A
Sudden Descent From High to Low
er Prices, As the Change Must
Come in a Gradual Manner.
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
Chicago, Nov. 15.-The bumper corn
crop and unusually heavy receipts OF
cattle and pork at the stock yards are
given by Chicago dealers as the causes
of the general decline of foodstuffs
over the country. The decline in the
prices at the stock yards was follow
ed by a reduction on fresh meats and
staples.
Commission men here today pre-
dicted lower prices still on everything
except eggs, which they say are high
and going higher. The following goes
to show some of the reductions here
in the last week:
Sugar, cents this week, last week.
5% to cents.
Flour, per barrel this week, $6.75;
last week, $500.
Pork this week, 16 to % cents;
last week, 20 to % cents.
Lambs this week, 13 cents; last
week 1S cents.
Chickens, this week, 12k cents;
last week Is cents.
Beet this week, 10 cents to IL cents;
last week, IL cents to Fl cents.
The decline since the first Of Oc-
tober is from SO to Is cents on cat.
tie in bulk and the market in general
is so cents lower than it was
week ago. Hogs have dropped from
1S, to $7.S2.
J. Ogden Armour said today the
whole tendency in prices OF stock yard
products was towards lower sched-
ule. He also said the descent would
he gradual and warned the public from
too hastily accepting the belle1 tnat
a drop from the highest to lowest
prices was due. packers prices to
retailers are based entirely on what
we have to pay for live animals,
said Armour. Generally speaking,
prices are lower and l believe they
are working toward a still lower level.
The present situation is the result OF
the enormous corn crop and of the
previous high prices that stimulated
everybody to raise live stock. The
public is betting the benefit of present
conditions and should get further
benefit as the increased supply of live
stock reaches the market.
Recent high prices of meats and
packing house products cannot be at
tributed in any way to the packers
nor to any combination or persons
or firms engaged in the packing house
industry. 1t has been due to conditions
that developed from scarcity and the
high price for corn which is the basis
of supply of live stock.
"Conditions in live stock raising are
bigger than any packers or set of
packers. The packers welcome lower
prices. Our prices are based on what
we have to pay for live stock and the
sooner the people and the world at
large realize that the better it will
be for everybody"

London, Nov. 15.-1'he Earl of Cre-
we, the new secretary Of state for
India, will sail from England in De-
cember to make tour of the country.
The earl has long sought the new post
as he hEs some radical reforms in
store for India. He is going to try
to persuade some of the princes of
India that they can get along without
SO many jewels and the people should
be given lighter taxation. King
George has been informed of this pol
icy and is said to have agreed with
it. Many of the old politicians of
England and the army officers declare
such a policy will only result in win
ming the i'll will Of the princes and
that serious trouble will follow.

EAGLE ATE TOO
MUCH FRESH MEAT

Arthur w. Davis, local manager for
the Armour Packing Company, was
yesterday made a present of the
young, bald eagle which the day be-
fore had been donated to the Plaza
zoo" Mr.. Davis prizes the national
bird much and will care for it as nice
ly as possible. The eagle was given
to the park commissioners, but it
was found that daily diet of fresh
meat had to be provided. The annual
budgets were made up in October
and none of them included diet bill
for eagles, so there were no funds
available unless generous park COM
missioners daily came forward with
the price of daily meals for the bird
Mr.. Davis has charge of several
thousand ponds of meat daily, and
little may be shaved off TO feed the
bird. At any rate, he accepted the

IMPROVEMENT rs IN WELSH OIL FIELD.
Rio Bravo Company Making Extensive
Improvements. &C. 4. Smith Has
Three Wells Pumping,

Work in the Welsh oil field con-
tinues to attract considerable atten-
ton. The Rio Bravo Co., one of the
oldest and most successful concerns
of the field, is making extensive i'm
provemeuts in their holdings here,
which indicates their faith in the field.
This company, it is reported on good
authority, COntemplates the eXpendl-
ture of $25, 900 on their present field
and refinery equipment. They are
erecting cOmmOdiOus cottages for
their day and night men, as we'll as
adding to the comfortable house occu-
pied by their chief of mechanics, S.
B. Culver, at the refinery. Their
further improvements COntemplates
a large warehouse and such other
buildings as may be needed. They
are also now engaged in deepening
one of their wells in the hope of tap
ping the main pool, which is gener-
ally believed to underlay the Welsh
field.
c. E. Smith Of Port Arthur is also
pushing the work on his holdings,
having three excellent bumpers in OPP.

fourth we'll started. Mr. Smith is
sanguin of the ultimate success of the
field and has recently secured some
valuable leases.
The Texas company, whose pipe
line runs through the field, has had a
man in the field good deal of the
time recently, and it is reported that
they contemplate establishing pump
ing station that will handle the ell
tire production of the field.
The Hill Top people, which is also
one of the pioneer companies of the
field, are operating their wells as sue
cessfully as in years past, with no
appearance of q decrease in their
productiveness.
1t is safe to assert that there is
more interest being manifested in the
field at the present time, than there
has been before for several years, and
the general feeling in oil circles is,
that this summer will witness extens.

April FrOStS Instead Of April Showers.

Instead of the April showers that
this country stands so much in need
of, we are experiencing period OF
low temperature, such as has seldom
if ever been known in this section OF
the country before, at this time OF the
year.
Last Saturday the wind began blow
ing from the northwest, continuing
throughout the day and all day Sun
day, from the same direction, with
constantly lowering temperature.
Monday morning the temperature had
fallen to "a degrees, while several
parties reported ice in exposed locali-
ties, and others report their gardens
having shown signs of frost. This
kind of weather is unprecedented at
this time of year, and combined with
the drouth that is being experienced
here, is making this one of the most
backward springs that has been known
for many years.
While there is considerable of the
rice crop planted. there still sremains
large part of it that is not planted,
and the greater part Of that which is
planted, is not coming up. A number
of the most progressive planters have
their ground prepared, but are hesi-
tating to SOW, until it rains, while
others, who have their rice planted,
are pumping water onto their fields,
leaving it there only long enough to
wet the ground, then passing it along
to other fields. in this way endeayOr-
ing to start the grain to growing.
Taking it all in all. the season so far,
has been very iunfavorable for rice,
with no immediate prospects OF
change.
