BOY SCOUT PATROL
Of ALL NATIONS
FOR THE DISTRICT
Plan to Organize Youth of
China, Russia, Italy,
and Japan.

Clad in the democratic kahk uniform
of the Boy Scout, there will shortly be
roaming the countryside near Washing
ton, Chinese, Russian, Italian, and Jap
anese Boy Scout patrols If present plans
for the formation of national patrols are
carried out.
Col Baron de Bode. military attache
of the Russian embassy, called on OFF,
GERS of the Boy Scout organization yes
terday and asked for information re-
garding the formation of patrols, stating
that the embassy here might take up
the movement with an idea OF enrolling
a patrol of Russian boys.
This afternoon letters will be sent
from Boy Scout headquarters to all en-
bassies and legations, making the sug-
gestion that patrols of the various ma
tiOnalities be formed. There are now
Chinese, japanese, and Italian troops of
scouts in New York. 1t is fitting that
a Russian should take the first steps
in forming the company here as there
are more Boy Scouts in the Cars do
minion than there are in the United
States, and more than in any other nom
English nation.
The rules and regulations for Boy
Scouts are uniform the world over, and
the foreign patrols organized here would
be handled exactly as are the American
boys.
Executive Secretary Z. S. Martin is
Sanguine about the success of this in
teTnational movement and believes that
the embassies here will take up the idea
with very few exceptions.

BEGINS INQUIRY TO
FIX BLAME FOR
INFLATED PRICES
New York Mercantile Ex-
change Members to Face
Charges.

NEW YORK, Feb. 2O.-The broadest
court investigation ever undertaken in
this city, and one fraught with init
mate consequences TO the ultimate con.
sumner, was started before Magistrate
Murphy this afternoon. Sitting as a
committing magistrate, Mr.. Murphy be-
gan an inquiry into the high cost of the
necessaries of life, and II was an.
nounced that, as the result of his probe,
the district attorney hoped to be able
TO bring criminal prosecutions against
a majority OF the spectators in but
ter and eggs, vegetables, meats, and
market Iroducts generally.
The inquiry will last more than a
month.
Today's proceedings were devoted en-
tirely to the butter and eggs phase of
the high cost of living.
The prosecutor told Magistrate Muir
ply that he expected to prove that the
New York Mercantile Exchange fixed
arbitrary prices for butter and eggs
sold In this city; that the law of sup
ply and demand was violated by the
members: that when there was ar
over-abundance /of the product offered
for sale II was bought up by the ex-
change leaders, who fixed the prices
and sent into cold storage, TO be brought
out i'm small lots when II could be mar
keted without breaking prices.

Egg Market Remains
At Standstill, With
Price at 81 Cents

The egg market remains somewhat
demoralized in Washington. with weak
quotations at 81 cents per dozen, whole
sale. Many dealers are refusing to buy
their fun supply today, holding or for
the expected drop in the price to 30
cents per dozen. The retail price stnnds
at 20 cents and IS cents per dozen
The coming of the Lenten season Is
having a decided effect on the mar
ket. az the local demand always in
creases at that time. All tine dealers
are unanimous in saying that the sup
ply will more than equal the demand
Mt that time. as the break in the cold
weather has had its effect in starting
the hens laying.
Legs have dropped from to cents
per dozen, wholesale. within the last
few days, part OF the reason for this
being the fact that every dealel' is buy
ing only the eggs absolutely needed tn
supply his trade, owing to the spas
mOdic action OF the local egg market
Considerable beef is being shown on
the markets along Commission Row.
headquarters of beef there were
quoted as low as cents per pound this
morning.
Prices on live fowls remain firm, but
owing to the thawing weather, the price

.ELG|N BOARD PUTS
PRICE OF BUTTER
DOWN FIVE CENTS
Will Not Affect Washington
Consumers, However, for
Several Days.

The Elgin Butter Board, which met
yesterday afternoon, set the wholesale
price of butter at q cents per pound,
drop of cents per pound, rlvaling
the drop of cents per dozen in the
Wholesale price OF eggs two weeks ago.
Washington markets, which are gov
erned by the New York quotations,
quote the wholesale price of butter at
~ cents per pound, the cents being
The carriage expenses. The retail price
VIII not be affected in Washington,
however, for several days, owing to the
fact that practically all the local deal
erS buy on a weeks margin, SO that
the price here will not fall until most OF
the supply on hand, which Is very
short just now, IS disposed of.
Butter at most markets today Is re-
failing at Ss and 10 cents per pound, al
though Il Is predicted that butter will
be retailing at around IS cents per
pound within the week.
Every indication, dealers say, is that
butter will not be any higher this year
and that more reductions are expected
although in more moderate degree
than the slash in the price yesterday
