BEEF
Unlike Cotton and Silver Contin
ues to Climb Unward-
SHORT 300,000 HEAD
Is the Excuse Advanced bythe
Packers. Failure of the
Western Corn Crop said
to Have Caused the
Shortage.
Chicago, April 11.—The story
telegraphed from New York to a
morning paper that the recent ad
vance in beef was not justified, and
that the big Chicago packers were
making an effort to eontrole the
meat market of the country and
advance prices to consumers, is
empathetically denied by Nelson
Morris, George F Swift, Armour &
Company and other packers.
“The advance in the price of
dressed beef,” said Nelson Morris
this morning is the natural result
of the scarcity of cattle. Already
this year the receipts of cattle at
the four principal points—Chicago,
St. Louis, Omaha and Kansas City
are 300,000 head behind last year’s
record.
Last week the receipts were
000 head short, which is equal to
18,000,000 pounds of dressed beef.
We are 16,000 head short already
this week. The price of livestock is
now $2 per hundred pounds higher
than it was last year, and I expect
to see prices go still higher.
Mr. Swift also denied that there
was a combine among the pack ers
and said the cattle market was 30
per cent higher now than it was
last year, which fact is advancing
the price of beef to consumers.
Manager Favorite, of Philip D.
Armour & Co., said the statement
that a pool had been formed by the
big Western packers to advance the
price of beef was adsurd,lt is scarce
ly worth denying, said he. The
only causes for the high price of
beef are the scarcity of cattle and
the failure of the corn crop.
The latter is, ot course, the
cause of the former. We are not
working for ihe interest of other
packers—that is certain. Besides
it would be impossible to form a
pool of the kind alleged, is desired
so great is the diversity of inter
ests among the Western packers.
Last Saturday’s receipts were
the lowest I have ever known them
—only five hundred head. I do
not know anything abou other
markets, but one has only to use
his eyes to see how things are going
here . ”
DON’T MISS THIS.
Drs. Thompson <t Taylor, the
highest endorsed and most success
ful Eye Glass Specialists in the
United States, are located at Mr.
Trevitt's Drug store No. 331 Broad
St. where they will examine the
eyes of all persons desiring it free
of charge. In order to introduce
the new ‘Castalian lasting Lense”
they will be sold at Manufacturer s
prices and persons suffering from
defective vision should not fail to
give them a call during this week.
Best quality Lenses will be sold

Longed for ’ier Child
New York, April 11.—Judge
Beach, in Supreme Court Cham
bers today, listened to a curious
story. It was of a woman named
Mary Waldburger, who w< nt wrong
in 1890, and when the child « s
born in the following year she had
it baptized and left it with John
Golhke and wife, agreeing to pay
$9 a month for its support.
Two years later she married and
last January, when secure in the
affections of her husband, she told
him her history. He was sorry to
learn of it, but as she had been a
good wife to him he let the past go
and told her to bring the child
homo.
John Golhke and his wife had
bec< me wrapped up in the little
one and would not give it up until
today, when Judge Beach ordered
them to surrender it and told the
mother to pay Mr. and Mrs,
Golhke $75.

TRIPLE SCREWS,
Washington, April 11.—One of
the considerations which influen
ced Commander-in-Chief Melville
iu supplying the Minneapolis with
three screws, which has been rather
overlooked in the contemplation of
her achievements in high spaed
was an enconomical performance
at medium speed, a most impor
tant consideration in a cruising
vessel. Reports just received
from the vessel, which is now at
tached to Admiral Mead's squadron
in the West Indies, indicate that
the calculations of the designer
were w»-ll fiunded and that the
ship is not only veiy speedy, but
also more economical than the
twin screw ships in coal consump
tion,
The squadron started from Trin
idad on March 18 for La Guayra,
and ac-reful watch w<s instituted
on the coal consumption of the
ships, at the cruising speed of 13
knots per hour. M hen they ar
rive at La Guayra it was found
that the Minneapolis had made
the run on 20 tons of coal per day
less than the crack New York.
L°aving La Guayra and when
half way toSan Domingo, Admiral
Vfead signaled his ships to go
■ head with all the speed they
>.u!d make without increasing the
b nler power, which was one halt,
the squadron going 13 knots ai d
to keep it up from 2 o’clock ti 1 J
o’clock. The screw of the Min
neapolis began to run at the rate
of 90 revolutions per minute, she
shot through the squadron, and at
sundown the remainder of the
ships wer» hull down astern. At
o’clock she slowed down to eight
knots, and thou it was not until 3
a. m. that the squadron caught up
with her.

JAPAN
Names The Terms Uoon which
She will firant Peace
CHINA WILLING TO ALL
Save one--Though "Which
One" is not specified. Li
Hung Chang's Cheek
is Reported as Com
pletely Healed;
Washington, April 11 —The ca
ble announcement that seven of
Japan’s eight conditions have been
accepted by Peace Commissioner
Li Hung Chang, is very gratifying
to diplomats here, who have no
longer any doubt that a peace
proclamation will speedily result.
As understood in Washington, the
eight conditions were as follows :
1. Independence of Corea.
2. Cession of Formosa.
2. Cession of Ligu-Tong promon
tory, including Arthur.
4. War indemnity.
5. Admission of machinery into
Cjrnia and permission to foreigners
to establish factories.
• 6. of the likin tax
and an of the system of
transit j ; import.
£ 7. of certain Chinese
rivers *’to cortiigeiMfcfc
Yangtse-Kiang to ChungpKingt
Siang, fromTlankow on the Yangtse
to Siang-Tan-Klang; Kimtipi river
to Ouchow, and Woosung apd its
canals as far as Sue ho v, Hang
Chow. ' < ■
8. Railway privileges and simi
lar concessions to Japanese and for
eign capitalists.
In addition to these conditions
it is believed that certain promises
will be exacted from China, the
terms of which are to remain se
cret. Ihe condition which i f is
thought has not yet been accepted
by Li Hung is that numbered three
in the above, providing for occu
pation of the portion of territory’
known as Regents Sword and the
citidel of port Arthur.
That this would be most stren
uously epnosed by China has all
along been undoubted and it has
be°o predicted that it might prove
a stumbling block of such dimen
sions as to prevent peace, unless
some compromise could be agre?d
upon as to the length of occupa
tion, the Chinese being likely to
insist that it should not be per
manent.
All other conditions except that
of indemnity have been the sub
jects of diplomatic consideration
for many years and all treaty pow
ers are as deeply interested in them
as Japan has been. The United
States has been particularly active
in urging the abolition of the lik
in tax, which is not unl'ke the
octroi of France, though less rea
sonable and less limited than the
French system.
The independence of Corear has
always been a contention, and the
United States has firmly maintain
ed that Corea was to lie treated as
an independent nation, since her
minister at ‘Washington was re
cognized ten years ago.
GREAT INDIGNATION FELT.
London, April 11.—A Central
News Company’s dispatch from
Shanghai says the greatest indig
nation is felt there against the
shippers of the cartriages which
were seized on board the steamer
Yiksang, for falsely declaring the
character of the vessel s cargo.
It is regarded as disgraceful, too,’
that the etistomes officials who ex
amined the cargo should have pass
ed them, and from the fact that
they di<l so it is supposed that they’
are implicated in the affair.. The
owners of the vessel are held
blameless.
English vessels are being strictly
searched, but German vessels are
not. The Yiksang has been taken
to Port Arthur.
LI HUNG CHANG WELL AGAIN.
London, April 11.—A dispatch
from Simouoseki says Li Hung
Chang has completely recovered
from bis injury and will personal
ly resume negotiations with the
Japane-e plenipotentiaries to
day.

NEWGOVERNO3 GENERAL
Has Sailed From Spain And
will Attempt to Quell the
Rebellion The Insurrec
tion Gaining Head
Over The Island
Havana, April 11, via Key West,
F i. —Brigadier General Jose Jim
errez Moreno, chief of the govern
or general’s staff, sailed on the
Villaverde to receive Martinez
Campos, who is expected to arrive
by the 15th.
Campos will land at Guantana
mo or Santiago, and by royal de
cree becomes governor general the
moment he sets foot on land,
avoiding the delay attendant upon
observing the customary form of
taking the oath of office here.
Governor General Calleja will
retire from < slice upon notice of the
landing of Campos and will sail
home on the 20th instant. General
Campos is expected to push active
opentions against the insurgents
in the province of Santiago de Cu*
ba, which is the only section whvre
insurgents are known to be in any
.numbers.
Latest advices place the number
at 3 000, divided into bands of 200
men each. General Bartolo Maa<>
is in command.
The other leaders are Adjutant
General Cespedes, chief officer;
Colonel Estabau Tamayo, Captains
Rabi Perez Estrada, Bello Guerra,
Levis, Capote Suarez Papas, Veg»,
Gonzales Aramburo and Brea.
The insurgents announce that a
syndicate has been formed in the
Uni'ed States to furnish moi • '
forjthe r volution, s
guaranteed from customs receipts
when independence is secured.
Wealthy and influential Cubans
here give no aid to the insurgent
and declare the uprising a mistake.
All three parties here pledge sup
port to the government. The gen
eral belief is that the insurrections
will be short lived.
General La Chambre, in com
mand of the government forces in.
Santiago province, reports roaving
bands in the mountainous section,
but no massing of insurgents and
no rising in other provinces. All
are under martial law. Troops are
stationed at all towns.
Monday a band of forty eight
mounted insurgents invaded Puer
to Prince province and were attack
ed by government forces and de
feated. One leade-, Panchin Vero
na was killed, another mortally
wounded and takon prisoners, and
a woman and chi'd ia a hut killed
by stray balls.
Three of the party who landed
near Baracoa with Maceo, after
killing the captain of the schooner
Honora, w«re captured Monday.
The others fled to the mountains.
The members of the party arrested
Sunday in a supposed attempt on
Jaruco barracks were released to
day, except Pedro Lopez Gil and
Francisco Paz. The others arrested
at Puerto Principe April stb, wera
also released, including Marquis
Santa Lucia.
THE INSURGENTS GAINING GRODNO.
N*>w York, April 11.—The Ward
line steamer Seneca, which ar
rived this morning from Msxican
ports and Havana, says that tt was
learned that while nothing official
could be beard of the progress of
the Cuban insurrection, the up
rising was general throughout the
island and was gaining ground
daily. Everj thing is at high ten
sion among the people and the in
surgents have mere symthizera
than the authorities are willing to
admit.
