CATTLE SCARCE: BEEF MUTING Packers and Live Stock Men Appeal for Aid in Fostering Stock Industry. CHICAGO, Aug 2.—The decline in the cattle industry is blamed by Chi cago packers and members of the live stock exchange for the high price of beef, and while other prices are soaring higher than they have ever been, mem bers of the exchange have appealed for aid in fostering cattle growing. "Congress or the state legislatures must enact laws soon for the protec tion of cattle raising in this country,” said President Jones, of the live stock exchange, "or the cattle market will become dangerously tight. The situa tion Is serious. The West is raising little cattle, the market is short and beef cattle are short in weight. There is no question, in my mind, but that the increase in population in this coun try is outgrowing the production of meat producing animals." Prime steers yesterday sold at $9.85 In the market here. englandlot TcTreopen PROBE OF TITANIC WRECK LONDON, Aug. 2.—Efforts to reopen the inquiry into the Titanic disaster failed In the house of commons today.
