Ho Mkelllinml of it I'nitilnn In the Worlcl'i
1'nlr City.
(Hns'lnl I'orn'KiKjiulonro.)
Ciiicaoo, March 10. Chicago will Imvo
plenty of provender wherewith to satisfy
the appetites of bur regular population
nml guests alike during tho World's fair.
There need bo no apprehension on this
score. Very likely tho story told in holy
writ will bo ripeated, and when tho last
Of our visitors liavo left us there may bo
mnny basket fnlH to carry away. Some
timid folk and they have managed to
communicate their apprehensions to tho
outside world have an idea to tho con
trary. Just because tho western Hoods of last
spring played havoo with tho vegetable
crop, just as tho snow blockades on tho
railroads during the last couplo of
month induced a temporary scarcity of
other classes of supplies, nnd becauso,
further, iih a natural result of theso con
dition, there wns an advnnco in tho 1
jiriceH of many article of sustenance
nnd in some case n scarcity in BUpply,
they rushed at once to tho conclusion
that tho prevailing conditions were sim
ply n forerunner of what might bo ex
pected u few months hence. And ho
they aro stocking up their cellars with
barrels of Hour, and big piles of cans of
corned beef, and of canned soups, and
canned vegetable, and loudly boasting
to their neighbor that, so far at least as
their HtomacliH aro concerned, they have
to fortified themselves that they aro cer
tain to be on the safo side from May to
November.
All this is sheer hysterics, sheer non
sense, tho kind of panicky feeling that
no good citizen should i.llow himself or
herself to publicly manifest. Wo are
C-edlng n million and a half of moutha
dally today. Wo may bo called upon to
feed another million in addition beforo
many mouths. And wo can do it. At
least so say tho men who aro tho go
between for tho producers nnd the
retailer, tho commission element that
gather in tho produce and distributes it
nround tho hotel, and tl.j stores, and
tho private houses tho vehicles of com
munication, iih it were, between the fer
tile plain of the cast and the west and
tho people that have to bo fed. These
people may bo supposed to know where
of they speak. And when they declare,
as a hundred strong thoy have declared
to tho writer today, that for tho rest of
tho year Chicago will Imvo plenty to eat
nnd plenty to spare thoy may bo mip
posed to speak by tho book. Nobody, it
is certain, has a better right to do ho.
There will certainly bo no scarcity of
tho stafT of life, neither of flesh meats.
Tho great northwestern country that is
tributary to tho World's fair city, and
which unnually transfers across its bor
ders for foreign consumption hundreds
of thousands of barrels of Hour, and tho
great southwest, that daily sends to our
great stockyards thousands of head of
cattle to bo killed and dressed, and tho
carcasses thereof to bo transported east
ward and theuco across tho water to
strengthen tho bono nnd sinew and mus
cle of our transatlantic brethren, can
certainly bo depended upon to keep tho
Chicago market well stocked. Perhaps
it may bo necessary to limit tho foroigu
supply if tho local demand should go be
yond all expectation, but nt any rato
tho suppl.v will bo hero, and it will not
got boyond Chicago so long as wo want
it and aro willing to go n fraction higher
than tho figure that may bo obtainable
elsewhere.
Nor need wo restrict ourselves or our
visitors to bread and meat. I was talk
ing this morning with ono of tho biggest
produce commission merchants iu the
country, nnd who has just returned from
a trip that extended to Denver on tho
tho west, New Orleans on tho south and
Boston on the cast. Uetwecn his do
parturo from nnd return to Chicago ho
had made contracts for tho delivery of
500,000 pounds of frozen turkeys, chick
ens nnd ducks, 15,000 dozen of spring
chickens and 2,000 tons of gnmo of vari
ous descriptions. Not only this, but ho
hud arranged for tho delivery of as large
a total of frozen fish as he has handled
in Chicago iu tho last fivo years. Uo is
only ono of many in tho same business,
nnd they all agree in tho opinion that
Bupplios will bo plentiful, and that, us a
rule, ordinary prices will prevail, al
though there may bo bouio slight ad
vances for fancy stock.
There is a Philndclpliiu firm that is
holding today in storehouses in this
state and Iowa no less than 2,000,000
pounds of frozen poultry, which will
bo unloaded on Chicago after May I.
Tho prospects for good fishing in Illi
nois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota
nnd other states is better than for many
years, and an abundance of trout, pick
erel, bass, whito fish, piko and porch
may bo said to bo already assured.
It is the same way with green goods.
Reports from sections upon which Chi
cago depends for its early supplies-
Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennes
eeo aro all of tho most favorable char
acter. It is true that potatoes and cab
bage wero at a premium a couplo of
months since, but tho nlonittido of
southern shipments lias restored prices
to a normal basis, and from now on the
commission merchants will huvo all tho
business they can handle. Present indi
cations, moreover, aro favorable to an
abundance of fruit, and Chicago will
got its share, even if some other por
tions of tho country aro compelled to
go with half jiortions.
As a millionaire shipper remarked, and
there is logic iu what ho said: "All tho
country knows that wo will require plen
ty of sustenance iu a solid way between
May and November, llenco everything
will flow this way, especially if we are
prepared to pay a fraction more than
limy bo obtainable elsewhere
As for tho canned goods that aro stored
away in tho warehouses of the various
grocery firms nnd of tho dry good houses
that indulge iu u grocery annex to their
rogulnrbusiiies.s.tho figures that are given
seem well nigh incredible. No such a
stock has ever been laid up in CI icngo
beforo. To revert, therefore, to the it
itml propositi m, it is certain that Chi
cago will lime plenty to eat this sum
mer. A to the drinking tint's atiot'n
