instead of returning to Chicago. She
promised to send her car for me. 1t
was long enough coming, goodness
knows, but If 1t had appeared sooner,
should have gone before you arrived"
Orme understood. The girl had
telephoned to Bessie while he waited
there on La Sale street She had
planned a meeting that would satisfy
him with full knowledge of her name
and place. And the lateness Of the
car in reaching Arradale was unques-
tionably owing to the fact that 1t had
not set out on It's errand until after
the girl reached home and gave her
chauffeur the order. Orme welcomed
this evidence that she had got home
safely
Bessie jumped lightly into the ton

She laughed nervously. He knew
that she was suppressing her natural
interest in the scene she had wit
messed on the veranda; yet, of course,
she was expecting some explanation.

have got into such a muss there at

She did not answer.

They were going eastward again

DEATHS HAND ON THROTTLE,
Believed Engineer Died Long Before
Wreck Occurred.

An Erie, Pa, dispatch says: That
death was at the throttle of the Erie
and Pittsburg passenger train No.
201 when it crashed into a freight
at Dock Junction last night is the
firm belief of officials and the coro-
ner after an investigation today and
a talk with Fireman James Firman,
who is in hospital fatally injured.
According to Firman's story En-
gineer John S. Jones, who has been
a we'll known engineer for forty-five
years, must have been dead long be-
fore the crash, because for five miles
he ran past signals set against him.
The train crashed into the freight
with the throttle wide open, and it
is Firman's belief, in which the Off
Gals coincide, that the engineer died
in his cab some time before the
crash came. No more bodies have
been found in the wreck, and it is
now believed the death list will not
exceed the three reported.

10000 CATS KILLED.
New York Operates Nine Wagons and
Auto Ambulance in Collection.

AUTO ambulance In Collection.
About 100000 cats have been put
to death in New York so far this
year, according to the records of the
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Animals. On the accepted basis
of nine lives to each cat this involves
a sacrifice of 100000 feline lives.
The average daily slaughter is L.
400, and yet the cat-catchers en-
ployed by the society say there is no
perceptible diminution of the avail
able supply. The death of the cap
tured Toms and pusses is said to be
absolutely painless. They are placed
in an immense tank into which IL
Illuminating gas is turned and each Of
the nine lives of each feline is snuff
ed out simultaneously. The society
operates nine wagons and automo-
bile ambulances in the collection of
superauous cts in New York and
Brooklyn.

BEEF SHORTAGE
IS PREDICTED

The Chicago Tribune says: Chicago
will be the principal source of supply
for fat cattle and the country's meat
supply for several months to come. ac-
cording to all analysis of the cattle and
packing industries given by NJ. +. Hor-
Yards and Transit company. last week
In the statement, Mr.. Horrine declares
that the western supply of fat cattle
practically has been cleaned up and the
drought has precluded the possibility of
new crop within several months.
"A remarkable cattle situation exists
in the United States, Mr.. Horrine says.
Until recently all markets were full of
fat cattle. Now the supply situation
shows radical change. Ohio, Pennsyl-
vania and Kentucky have marketed their
crops of fat cattle, and eastern points
are not getting enough good cattle to
supply their local needs.
The character of receipts at Missouri
River points shows the western supply
of fat cattle has been cleaned up which
leaves Chicago about the only place on
the market map of the United States
where buyers can get adequate selection,
and that is likely to be the case for
long time to come.
The present situation had its origin
i'll the drought condition of last summer,
which forced all the regions west and
southwest of the Missouri River to pre-
maturely market young and growing
stock. which was largely absorbed by
Illinois and surrounding States. Then
followed a magnificent corn crop and
splendid winter feeding season, result
ing in abundance OF fat cattle
The supply is lasting much longer
in the country tributary to Chicago than
either east or west. simply because con-
ditions for a year past have favored an
abundance of good cattle in this terri.
tory, and will make Chicago from now
on until the next crop is fed the chief
and almost the only supply point for fat
cattle.
Domestic demand for beef is increas-
ing and there will be a strong and con-
slant demand for beef of good quality.
Adequate rains during the remainder
of the season and another good corn
crop will reveal the shortage of growing
cattle in the country more sharply than
at any time for twenty years, and prices
for both Young and fat cattle must
almost certainly advance materially in
the near future
