Here's Good NeWS!
Meat Selling Cheaper;
Potatoes Dropping

Here's some good news for the house,
keepers of Memphis and incidentally for
the men who have to supply the where-
with to fill the market basket
Sweet and Irish potatoes are drop
ping fast in price at retail. A NUM-
Der of stores are selling sweet potatoes
at cents pound and Irish at cents,
which is close to the jobbing price on
small lots.
The biggest drop in seen in fresh
meats this week, A dozen or more OF
the cash carry butcher shops are
selling the cheaper cuts Of beef at l21a
to is cents a pound, price that hasn't
been quoted before in Memphis for
three or four years.
Good cuts Of steak run from % to %
cents at these same stores. and ever. a
fine T-bone steak can be bought for
27 to 30 cents. Roasts are about the
same price, and pork and mutton are
at least a fourth less than two weeks
ago Salt meats are about cents low
er.
OF course, If one wishes to telephone
the order, and have 1t delivered, there
are butcher shops and markets which
will deliver the order but the charges
are necessarily higher.
Whether the packers are practclng
their -known~ph philanthropy and re-
ducing wholesale prices before the be-
ginning of a hard winter, or the cash
stores are cutting profits,s has not de-
veloped, but those who pay cash and
carry their purchases home seem to be

u. S. Chief Holds
Up Rifles After

oMSK, Oct. O. (By the Associated
Press Mai Gen Graves, commander
OF the American forces in Siberia, IN
retaliation for the alleged scurrilous
articles published IN a Vladivostok
newspaper and hostile acts of Cossack
chiefs In the far east, has held up
shipment OF t4.000 rifles which recently
arrived ut NladiVostok from America
consigned to the all Russion govern

graph, Gen, Graves. In direct and force
ful language, declares he viii person

paper-@the Golos Rodint-unless rs the
Omsk government does so, He asserts
further that unless the activity OF the
Cossack chiefs Is controlled he will rec
ommend that America refuse to render
further assistance to Russia Gen
Graves says he will retain the arms
until advised MS to what action the
Omsk government proposes to take.
In replying the Omsk government
says In It's view the subject constitutes
diplomatic and not military problem,
which should be approached through
recognized diplomatic channels, and
that the government there awaits Il
communication from the state depart
ment at Washington, 1t says that mot
wishing to formulate any recrimtnations,
It Will not enter into an argument whlcn
might impair the lively sympathy which
ii believes has been awakened In Amer
lea for the cause Of Admiral kolchak," ="
In respect to the holding up of the
shipment of-rifles, astonshment is ex-
pressed by the government that local
trouble In the far east which the gov
ernment regards as an international
problem, and not n purely Russian one
SHOULD impel Gen. Graves to take steps
which might jeopardize n more far
reaching and more vital undertaking
namely, the suppression OF Bolshevism

troops are conducting successful Of

II is pointed out that Cen Graves
course Is peculiarly astonishing in view
of the fact that the rifles were bought

The threatened suppression of the

ceivably be construed as matter. sub
