MEAT SCARS IN CHICAGO.


Packers Hold Out Little Hope Of
Decrease to Housewives.
Chicago - Meat prices, already a
serious problem for Chicago house
wives. have climbed notch In the
last few days and, according to those
acquainted with the situation, show
no signs Of decreasing. In Chicago

Round steak, 20 to % cents.
Lamb chops (best), 26 to 80 cents.
Pot roast. 10 cents.
Veal outlets, so 10 IS cents.
Pork chops, 10 to I'll cents.
These figures. according to local
dealers, are big advance over figures

HIGH LIVING SCORED.
Luxury Attacked BY Senator Burton
~ Main Cause.

Washington, D. c.. Senator Bur
ton. of Ohio, explained to the senate
his opinions as to the cause of the
present high cost of living. The
manifest and important causes, be
said, were the phenomenal progress
Of recent years, the striking inequali,
ty of this progress in different lines OF
human endeavor and the tendencies to
extravaganza and waste and to dimin-
ish productive energy by large part
of the population.
Neither the Payne Aldrich tariff
law nor any other similar measure
was responsible for the general high
prices" he declared, "for the varia-
tions In prices have been SO very con-
siderable, both in the way Of Increase
and decrease, as absolutely to disprove
any inference that the change in
prices has been due to the tariff of
1909 or to any other tariff act.''
He exonerated the trusts" and
Large combinations of capital de-
claring that a complete monopoly in
any particular article affords chance
to increase its price. but that the
same result is apparent when separate
producers maintain an agreement as
to prices.
Zone of the serious influences tend
ing to increase prices" he asserted,
lis that of price agreements Of vari-
GUS sorts. 1t was one of the purposes
of the Sherman antitrust act to pre-
vent practices of this sort. However.
there can be little doubt that this
practice still continues"
Another device" resorted to to
eliminate competition, he declared,
was that Of hiding behind the patent
right" He referred to recent Su-
preme court decision under which the

quired to buy supplies of certain
