The next step will probably be re-
course to a rigorous policy of recon-

purpose of preventing recruits from

And 1t Is Costing
Something to Live.

New York, June at costs more to
live in this month of June, 1912, than
ever before in the history of the Unit
ed States, except. perhaps, during war
times. Prices were high year ago,
but today they are ON the average
nearly 10 per cent higher yet, accord
ing to trade authority quotations.
Food products are the HIGHEST on
record. Meat, eggs, butter, fish. po-
tatoes, coffee, tea, sugar, salt, mo-
lasses, rice. beans and peas have av-
eraged q per cent. higher; wheat
eorns, oats. Hour, barley, etc, 30 per
cent. higher.
Fruits are the only good things to
eat that have grown Cheaper during
the last II months, but they are still
higher than 1910. Leather products
cost II per cent. and chemicals and
drugs IL per cent. more than year
ago. Textile goods. however, are a
tritie cheaper
The average Increase in food pro-
ducts is nearly 20 per cent, which
means that the housewife must pay
50 to ill a market basket that only
cost her s. 10 fill in June, 1911; in
other words 81 win only buy five
sixths as much as it did year ago.
The biggest advances have been in
meat products-beef &c per cent; hog
products, 40 per cent, and mutton
over so per cent Dealers lay the in
crease to last years poor hay crop
and the general high cost of animal
proyender. Poor crops are also held
responsible for dearer breadstuffs
Economists differ as to the reasons
for the general upward tendency of
all commodities during recent years,
which has been world wide.

ARMS FOR CUBA.
Uncle Sam to Loan 5000 Rifles and
100000 Rounds of Ammunition.

washington. June 3.-The state de-
partment, today, authorized the war
department to honor the application
of the Cuban government for 5000
rifles and 100000 rounds of ammuni-
ton, which are to be used to arm the
volunteers and the guards organized
BY plantation owners to protect their
property against the insurrectos.
President Gomez wanted the latest
type OF Springfield rifles. similar to
the 10000 already supplied to the
Cuban army. When it was found
that such arms could not be sold
without express authority from the
Congress, the Cuban government de-
cided to accept Krag-Jergensen rifles
instead. These are practically new
weapons, which were withdrawn from
the regular army and set apart to
form reserve supply of about 10000.
The weapons will be sold to the
Cuban government at about IS piece,
plus express charges.
Late advices from the American
consul at Santiago are that the sit
