Grinding Power of Beef Trust.
It Has Lately Raised the Price of Meats 30 Per Cent.
Twenty Men Control the Trade. Four Firms, Back-
ed by Vast Capital, are Able to Manipulate Prices
at Their Pleasure. Forcing up the Cost of Beef.
Jo man, woman or child, or government
can escape the beef trust, or dispute its
power. It is absolute in its domination of
the home; in its ability to compel payment
of tribute to it. The home of the humblest
citizen of the United States furnishes a per-
tinent example of its control of the meat
supply of the country. It has just raised
the price of its product 30 per cent. to
wholesale dealers. That means that the
family fare of the poor man will contain 30
per cent. less meat than it did a week ago,
or meat of 30 per cent. inferior quality.
Apparently, it is a trifling effort, scarce-
worthy to be called a task, for the Beef
Trust to materially control if not entirely
cut off the meat supply of the rich and poor
alike. The poor man will only be better
fitted to describe the power of the trust
than his more fortunate neighbor; yet both
will feel it for the trust plays no favorites.
It treats all its victims alike. Its power
has been culminated, progressive; growing
narrower in membership, vaster in its scope
of operations and influence with each
year of its history.
RAPID GROWTH OF TRUST.
Scarcely a score of years has this trust
existed, with a meagre combined capital of
$5,000,000 at the start, and an income of
$400,000 a year. Then there were rival
concerns, because none of them were called
trusts in those days. But in ten years the
rival concerns were wiped out or ‘‘absorb-
ed”’ thatis the professional term for buying
out rivals, and the Beef Trust became su-
preme.
It is supreme today, composed of four
firms whose membership does not exceed
twenty men. Yet itis doubtful if there
are twenty other men in all the world
whose power is brought so directly to the
homes of every citizen as the power of these
twenty, and the real barons of beef, princes
of pork and sovereigns of sheep.
The four firms of which they are active
members transact a business of $335,000,-
000 a year, divided in about this propor-
tion: Armour & Co., $120,000,000; Swift &
Co., $90,000,000; Cudahy, $40,000,000;
Nenson Morris & Co., $75,000,000.
There is a fifth firm which enjoys rela-
tions with the real trust, closely allied
enough in a business way to justify its
classification with the others. This is the
firm of Schwarzchild & Sulzberger, which
acts as general distributor in New York,
and besides maintains packing houses of
its own in the West. But as it only has a
business of a trifling $12,000,000 a year it
is not rated in the first class.
VAST CAPITAL COMBINED.
The combined income of the firms com-
prising the trust exceeds $19,300,000 a
a year. It is the closest corporation in the
United States, while apparently maintain-
ing independent relations between firms
comprising the trust. Armour & Co. are
the leaders of the trust. All reductions in
the price to be paid cattle raisers and in-
creases in the price of meat to consumers
are decided upon by Armour & Co.
The other firms in the trust accept the
quotations of Armour & Co. Thereis never
any cutting of rates to consumers, no in-
crease in the price to be paid to producers.
Agents of the trust in the cattle-raising dis-
tricts kept down the quotations for beef
when the trust is buying. For ten years
successively there has been a gradual de-
cline in rates which the trust is willing to
pay for cattle.
MANIPULATING PRICE OF MEAT.
Other agents of the trust regulate the
supply of slaughtered cattle, pork and
sheep to wholesale dealers in such a man-
ner as to force prices up. For ten years
successively there has been a gradual in-
crease in the prices the trust demanded for
its product. There has not been a single
reduction in price in any year.
‘‘Lower! Lower! has been the motto of
the trust in buying cattle from the cattle-
raisers.
‘‘Higher! Higher! is the demand of the
agents of the trust for its slaughtered
product.
The control of the supply of cattle is ab-
solute. When a shortage of cattle is de-
sired to force up prices of its slaughtered
product ready for sale the trust does not
buy.
It reports a shortage and instantly in-
creases the price of beef, which increase
must be borne hy the buyers and finally by
the man on whose family table it is served.
There is no redress or appeal from the
mandates of the trust. The man who
raises cattle for the market must accept the
price the trust pays; the man who eats
meat must pay the price it demands for the
product. An elevation in the price of
meat is professionally styled an ‘‘evener.’’
The term originated in 1895, when the
trust advanced prices on its product from
6 to 8 per cent.
The storm of protest from all over the
country frightened the trust spokesman
into an explanation for the unwarranted
increase in prices, which was also an apolo-
gy. The explanation was that there was a
big shortage in the visible supply of cattle.
This statement was repudiated by cattle
raisers, but the increase stood.
This stupendous increase of 60 per cent.
in the price of beef to the consumer has
been accomplished in less than four years.
The first increase of 30 per cent. was never
reduced a cent. although in 1896 there was
no shortage in the cattle supply. On the
contrary, cattle raisers reported an over-
production. But the ‘‘evener’’ stood ; there
was no reduction in the price to consum-
ers, at least in this country.
English patrons of the trust were treated
with greater consideration. The dressed
preduct of the trust was sold in London
and other cities in Great Britain at lower
prices than in the United States, notwith-
standing the increased cost of shipment
and rehandling.
The trust explained this paradoxical con-
dition of affairs with an ease inspired by
apparent contempt for the rights of its
domestic patrons to ask one. The explana-
tion was that the trust was trying to drive
out the Australian beef dealers who con-
trolled the English market and had cut
prices in order to do so. The statement
that better beef was sold in England for
less money than was asked for an inferior
grade in Chicago and New York elicited no
response from the beef trust.
A Hard Nut to Crack.
The statement of Gov. Candler, of
Georgia, that illiteracy has decreased among
the negroes of that state from 85 per cent.
in 1870 to 40 per cent. in 1899, and that
crime has increased among them in about
the same proportion that illiteracy has de-
ereatsd, is a hard nut for the sociologist to
crack.

Japan's Progress.
It is well to note the progress of this
wonderful eastern empire. It has now a
population of about 45,000,000, which is
increasing at a fraction over 1 per cent a
year. The number of foreigners in the
country is about 10,000, one-half Chinese,
with 2,000 English and 1,100 Americans.
Its total area (without recently acquired
Formosa) is 147,655 square miles, which is
10,000 square miles less than California,
and about the size of New York, Pennsyl-
vania, Maryland and Virginia. The popula-
tion is dense. In Central Nippon, which
has more than a third of the total, it is 452
to the square mile, while, for the empire it
is 289. It goes for the saying the science
of government is taxed to care for this hive
of humanity within small bounds. In-
genuity in production and frugality in liv-
ing have their highest development. Its
military and naval strength, in great effi-
ciency, make it the controlling Asiatic
power, second only to Great Britain. Edu-
cation is well cared for and is compulsory.
There are in Japan at this time 30,000
schools, 100,000 teachers, 500,000 graduates
and 5,000,000 pupils of hoth sexes. In all
industries and commerce the progress of
the empire is striking. Foreigners were at
one time influential and gladly accepted as
guides. But the ery now is Japan for the
Japanese, and just as fast as toreign in-
structors in anything can be replaced by
natives it is done. They are self confident
to a degree approaching that of English-
men or Americans. ‘‘They have a feverish
anxiety to acquire and a wonderful capacity
for absorbing knowledge of any kind,”
says Mr. Stafford Ramsome in his ‘‘Japan
in Transition.”” He also holds that the in-
terests of Great Britain, the United States
and Japan are identical in the far east, and
invite alliance to prevent the dismember-
ment of China by Germany, France, Russia
and Italy.
——One of the most dastardly efforts of
the assassin in modern times, was the at-
tempt to kill Labori,the leading counsel for
Dreyfus,as he was about to enter the court.
‘What else could we expect to happen in as
rotten a nation as France? The Dreyfus
investigation proves the governing power,
the army, to be thoroughly demoralized,
and that some of the highest officers were
concerned in the plot to make the Captain
of artillery a victim of their hellish schemes
of hatred. If revolution do not follow, it
must be because the Almighty is reserving
France for a worse fate.
Chestnuts and Shellbarks.
Chestnuts and shellbarks promise a
plentiful crop this year. The chestnuts
were full of blossoms and the nuts are now
to be seen in abundance. The shellbark
trees are loaded in some parts of the
country with a fine big crop, so with good
weather, this favorite nut will be enjoyed
as much as usual.
——Dorothy—*‘'Mamma, if I should die,
would I go to heaven?’
“Why, yes, darling, of course you
would.”
“And if you should die, would you go
to heaven too?’
“I hope so, dear.”’
“I hope so too, because it would be very
awkward for me to be known as the little
girl whose mother is in hell.”’

It is feared that the work of Clara
Barton as President of the Red Cross, is al-
most at an end. This has been known
among her friends and relatives although
they have until now preserved the utmost
secrecy relative to the letters they had re-
ceived from her while she was in Cuba.
Letters received from Miss Barton by her
nephew, John H. Stafford, of Oxford her
birthplace and home during all her early
life, stated that she had retnrned from
Cuba so broken down in health as to be ab-
solutely unfitted for any more active work
at present. She had been not only engaged
in arduous labor during her stay in Cuba,
but had been planning in an elaborate way
for educational work among the chil-
dren of that island, and had cherished am-
bitious hopes in that direction. She inti-
mates that her disappointment in that di-
rection is far greater than any physical suf-
fering that might come to her. Her sister,
Mrs. J. H. Stafford, who has been visiting
her in New York since her return, writes
that Miss Barton has grown old in appear-
ance to an alarming degree since she last
met her, a little over a year ago. Miss Bar-
ton herself acknowledges that her work in
Cuba during the hot season has been more
trying and difficult than any that she has
ever before engaged in. If the truth was
known she is completely broken down, and
will go to her home in Washington under
the most careful treatment. Later, unless
her physician interferes, she will probably
return to her old home to recuperate.
His LIFE wAs SAVED.—Mr. J. E. Lilly,
a prominent citizen of Hannibal, Mo., late-
ly had a wonderful deliverance from a
frightful death. In telling of it he says:
“I was taken with typhoid fever, that ran
into pneumonia. My lungs became hard-
ened. I wasso weak Icouldn’tsit up in bed.
Nothing helped me. I expected to soon
die of consumption, when I heard of Dr.
King’s New Discovery. One bottle gave
great relief. I continued to use it, and
now am well and strong, I can’t say too
much in its praise.” This marvelous med-
icine is the surest and quickest cure in the
world for all threat and lung trouble.

—-The shortest honeymoon and the gquick-
est application for: divorce on record are
reported in the Winfield (Kan.) Courier.
On Monday of last week a resident of Paw-
nee (0. T.,) was married to a young wom-
an of Winfield. It was noticed that the
bridegroom was somewhat under the in-
fluence of liquor during the ceremony, and
when he retired to the room of his bride
he sat down in a chair and at once went to
sleep. When he awakened two hours later
his bride was still with him, but she had
been transformed from an affectionate girl
into an angry and disgusted woman. She
turned a deaf ear to all his apologies and
entreaties, and walked out of the room
and straight to a lawyer's office, where she
commenced action for divorce.
The long twice-around white tie, is
still without a rival for summer afternoon
wear. Many new and charming designs are
on view.
