sioners Spifltlen, Thomas and McHugh.
According to Commissioner Thomas, who;
Introduced the resolution last night au
thorising .the Inquiry, the principal ibject
Is to ascertain the habits of the firemen

believed to exlt. Aside from the Investiga
tion the committee Is directed to suggest
methods for Improving the condition.

Week from the department after he waa
found guilty of reporting for fluty while
under the Influence of llquot Acting Chair
man Broatch used emphatic larguaae.
"Wo wish to make It ftlaln," raid ho,
"that this board will not countenance in
temperance In the fire department. The
men are paid good wagee by the city and
sober and efficient service is demanded In
return. The board proposes to be very
atrlct In enforcing the requirement that
men must not drink to exces or must
leave the department."
It waa the econd time Weeka had been
tried under similar chargea. William O.
Flood, a man who had served flfty-elfht
day on probation, was dropped after be
ing found guilty of unbecoming comlWt
which Involved accusation of drinking.
Apparently the two cases Induced the
action of tha board In demanding an In
vestigation. "What's the matter with the discipline
of the department?" waa aaked of Chief
Baiter.
"Nothing so far aa I know," he replied.
In response to tha same question Com
missioner Thomas replied with the single
word "booxe."
Charges of being drunk on duty were
preferred against Patrolman William Cul
len, whom. It is alleged, made an arrest
without justification tha other day. Cul
len pleaded guilty, but sentence was de
ferred a v week.
The anticipated order for the closing of

Last Thursday McCllntock waa fishing

RAISE PRECEDES THE STRIKE
Advance bt Two Centa a Ponnd on AH
Grades of Meat.
EFFECTIVE JUST BEFORE MEN QUIT WORK
Packer Deny Com -malty of Intereat,
bat All, Stranaely Ennnah. Charge
More Money 'for Their
! rod net.
Even before the packing trades strlk
was In progress the rackers began to levy
tribute for carrying It on from the public.
Tuesday morning notice waa served upon
local butcher that price on all grade of
fresh meat had been advanced 2. centa per
pound. tThe etrlke began at noon.) Not
withstanding that the packer deny there
In any community of Interest among them
the advance was strangely unanimous, all
houses advancing the price almost at th
same moment.
The excuse offered for the advahce la
that the stocks In the hands of the packer
are very email and they are expected to
run still lower during the strike. During
the past four months, butchers say, th-3
price of beef has advanced from 4 to 8
centa per pound. Cattle that could be
bought the 1st of April for 6 centa and
cents cost today 10 cents per pound, and
some tven higher than that.
During this period the advance lit live
cattle, according to the butchers, has been
only about 1 cent per hundred. But It is
explained that an advance In the price of
beef on the hoof of 1 rent would necessi
tate an advance of 2 cents In the price of
dressed heif. Figuring on this baMs, it la
pointed out that the advance In the price
of beef during the four month should
have been about 2 cent per pound Instead
of 4 or 6 cent.
Ample toek on Hand.
Some of the larger retail dealer have
stocks of fresh meat on hand sufficient to
carry them through the first week of the
strike, but the smaller shops only carry
one or two dnya' supply and depend upon
replenishing their stocks from the packers
from day to day. This being tho case, It
Is expected that the smaller dealers sooh
will be out of business If the strike con
tinues. x
While the packers are claiming their
stocks of meats are almost exhausted, the
butchera assert such Is not the case and
that the packer have been Increasing
their stocks for several daya or weeks In
anticipation of the strike which they knew
waa almost Inevitable. All packing houses
carry quite a stock of provisions at all
tlmea for the reason that provisions re
quire a good time In curing and there must
necessarily be considerable tock In process
of curing at all times, but the packers as
sert that at tho present time their stocks
of provisions are almost depleted and there
can be but little hope of meat from that
direction. Asaerts a butcher, "the butchers
look upon this report like the report of
shortage of fresh meats In the light of a
canard." '
Flh a a Snbstltnte.
When provision and fresh meat are
eliminated from the Hat of edible there ap
pear to be little aolace for the meat lover.
There la still fish left, but this will hardly
fill the bill. On the fish list there Is cod,
mackerel, trout, catfish, herring, halibut
and numeroua other kinds, but tha butcher
will not a!low any satisfaction In the con
sideration of this list, for, says he, when
eveyone turns his attention to fish the
supply will aoon be short and the price
will advance so that the poor, at least,
cannot eat It. Canned, meats are yet to be
had and, the supply will probably. last a
few days, but this line, too, wl'.l aoon bo
exhausted, and then there is nothing in
the meat line left to eat unless some other
mean is found of obtaining frosh meat
than through tha packing house.
Some of the more enterprising butcher
already have begun to figure on passing
the packer by and securing their meat
supply from other sources. They say they
will establish slaughter houses In the sub
urbs and send buyer out Into the country
to buy cattle for them and do their own
killing rather than let their trade suffer
for fresh meat. This action on the part
of the butchera ia expected to meet with
strong opposition from the packers who,
of course, will have their strength with
which to fight their employe very much
crippled by the butchers taking the business
out of their hands and carrying it on them
selves. But notwithstanding the expected
fight which will be made by the packers
tho larger butchers signify their intention
of doing their own killing.

The almost Inarticulate utterances of Mon.
day have changed to Intelligent conversa

of his surroundings. i
While the question of his guilt has not
yet been aeked In a direct manner, yet he
made a tenatlve admission In response to
the question:
"Is this knife (the one he Injured him

your wife and father-in-law T" Th mur
derer rephed:
"Yes, that I the on I used, I carried
the knife with me all of the time I waa

The next query asked was regarding th
connection, if any, between the abrasions
of the man's neck and the eight 'feet of
rope he had when captured.) The rope had
a noose. Zeller said, he h,ad tried to hang
himself, but the knot slipped, in, some man
ner and he failed to carry out his effort at
self-destruction. The marks' "on' the neck
were caused entirely, he said, by the rope.
The inquest over the remains of Zeller'
