aided Lower Food Prices.

Washington, Nov. 1S.-Dr Harvey
w. Wiley, chief chemist of the depart
ment of agriculture, has blanketed all
enthusiasm over the lower food prices
by announcing that it was merely
trick of the special interests" to get
a better hold on the market.
"The interests which manipulated
the prices" he said, have temporar-
lily released their hold on our throats
for the purpose of getting a fresher
grip. The so called reduction in
meats is fictitious. 1T is merely de-
nberate manipulation of the market
The prices were fictitious when they
reached the top notch, but they were
arbitrarily forced to that high level
by the interests
"The reduction is not a reduction In
fact.
IF there Is reduction at this par.
ticular time 1t is far from being per-
manent The interests which con.
trolled the market a year ago and
forced prices of meat up to an abnor
NAL level are still in control 1t is
impossible to believe they have sud
denly become philanthropic and de-
cided to give the people square

Chicago, Nov. 1S.-Riots by striking
garment workers broke out anew in
several parts of the city after lull of
several days.
About 800 strikers waited at the foot
of Gault court, in the Italian quarters,
for hours and when the residents, en-
ployed in many instances as strike
breakers appeared to take street cars
for their places of employment the
crowd attacked them. Police from a
nearby station used clubs to break up
the disturbance. Many of the strike

But what do we charge 25 cents
for? For six pounds of chops that

The butchers are unanimous in say

giving out the idea that heavy price
cuts are to be expected either at
