New York, July R. The' beef true '
baa again ordered the price of its pro-
uoct raiseo. s-ouneen oenui wuuu
for pot roast to 28 cents for porter
bouse and sirloin steaks ia the pries.
Thirty cents will be demanded for tb
latter cuts to a few days, while aver
age beef will cost the dealer 10 canto
a pound, aa against the hitherto pre
vailing price of 10 cents. ,
The high price af corn and the scar
city of cattle are the raaeone assigned
by tba trust for the Increase to prices.
As to why cattle ahoold be any scarcer
now than at any other time no answer
is forthcoming. -.- ------
Retail butchers explain that toe
working people are too poor to buy
beef; that there to a Isascning to the
demand and consequently a raising in
tba price. It Is pointed out. that Pat
ten's corner to wheat bee increased the
demand for corn as an srtiele of human
consumption, and that therefore tba
price of that grain has so increased
that it Is no longer profitable to raise
corn-fed cattle.
The officers of the beef trust to the
Bast arc very reticent to discussing
the condition of the beef market.
When an expression of opinion was
sought from the representatives of the
big Isadora in tba trust, such as Ar
mour's and Swift's, the inquirer was
referred from one official to another.
Finally a vague statement wss made
to the offset that the market waa nor
mal and that existing prices were due
to natural trade condition.
