BEEF PRICES TO STAY UP.

Ciiii'AUo, Aug. S. Henry F. llorlne.
statistician and one of the prlc experts
of the Cnlon Stock Yards Company, to
day Issued a statement In which he snya
that the high prices for beef will con
tinue for n good many years at least.
"The only hope for relief," says Mr.
Uorine, "lies with the farmers of the
coin belt, who with Improved methods
of farming and with alfalfa may be
ablo to produce beef cattle profitably
once more.
"Thu present situation Is easily
explained. The drought of 10U9 and
1910 ruined the ranges In the South
west, Mexico and Cunada. This rs
duccd the already deficient supply of
breeding and young stock and caused
a general scarcity of cattle. The ove.--marketlng
of thin steers In 1010 was
followed by ihe overmarketlng of fat
cattle of nil ages from the corn belt
In ItMJ.
."The farmers saved fewer cal"es md
the consequence Is thnt nt the present
time there l very little young stock
lu the country, and wo urn rapidly
consuming what there Is. The runges
thrtitightout the world nro being cut
up Into small farms and tho specializa
tion lu ciops makes the raising of
cattle of secondary Importance. 1 look
for n beef famine In this country dur
ing the next five or ten yenrs. There
nre no moro ranges and no place to
raise the stock profitably."

IMPORTANT NEW WITNE8S
Giovanni Stnnirh Shw Rosen
thal Killed Story the
Polloks Told Jury.
Six more Indictments for murder In
the l.nsenthal enso will bo handed down
by the Grand Jury In a few days. The
new Indictments will accuse Jack Sul
livan, Sam Schcpps, Louis Hosenzwelg
(Lefty Loulo). Frank Mullcr (Whltey
Lewis), Harry Horowitz (Gyp the
Blood), and Frank Clroflcl (Dago
Frank).
Only complete confessions can save
Sullivan and Schcpps from first degree
Indictments.
A new witness, Giovanni Stanlch,
Identified Jack Sullivan yesterday as
tho man lie had seen standing with
the four murderers while they were
filing nt Herman Hoicnthal.
Mr. nnd Mrs. Harry Pollok testified
thnt Schcpps had been a go-between
for Lieut. Uecker nnd Jack Itosc after
the murder.
The District Attorney learned also
that shortly after Lieut. Uecker em
ployed Itose as his gambling house col
iector Hecker had on deposit In the
West Side Savings Hank $3,000, the
maximum deposit liennltted by the sav
ings bank law. It was learned also that
Uecker had told Hose that bis "cleanup"
In four months was tSO.OOO for himself
alone.
Corroboration nf Ito.r.
Much actual progress was made yes
terday In corroborating Hose's confes
sion and statement. Mr. and Mrs. Hurry
Pollok, who were Grand Jury witnesses,
told Tub Sin that they had testified
not only that Hecker had called up
Hose at their house, that Hecker had
sent John W. Hart nnd n notary public,
named Hurgard, to ie Hose, but thnt
Pollok, nt Hose's request, had called
on Hecker at Police Headquarters to
tell Hecker that Hose wanted to see
him.
The session of the Grand Jury yes
terday was the most Important since
the unprecedented night meeting that
resulted In the indictment of Lieut.
Hecker. There were sixteen witnesses
j before the Grand Jury Mrs. Herman
1 P.oseuthal, Lieut. Domlnlck Itellly, Max
i Margolls, Mary Hose, a trained nurso
I, )1()y0(I , lac.,i. lbwe. Mary SloIT

.otto 11. Shultze, Policeman John J.
Hrady, Thomas Smith, head wa'tee nl
the Melropole, and Juseph Clavln. bell
boy nt the Metiopole.
All of the.-Jt- witnesses were railed for
the purpose of securing additional In
dictments lor murder. It was neces
sary lu laying tin; groundwork for six
more liiilIclitit'nlK to present to the
Grand Jury substantially the same evi
dence thai had been offered ngalnst
Licit Meeker. Hut some of the wit
nesses gave Information that was en
tirely new and about us sensational -'is
anything that had previously developed.
Meeker llntl llnnk I. dull.
Not from the Grand Jury proceed
ings, nllhoiigh it is probable that thn
Grand Jury has been apprised of the
J facts. It" was learned thnt Lli
ut. Hecker
bad been making money pretty rapidly
while he was In command of th' Ktroug
arm raiding squad.
The lleuienant and Jack P.ose made
an agreement about a year ago which
was profitable, according to Hose's
story, for both of them. Shortly ufter
Hose began work ns a collector Hecker
began to deposit In the West Sido Sav
ings Hank. Within a few weeks ho had
on deposit there nil thnt could be in
cepted In 0110 account 13,000.
The District Attorney, having heard
that Hecker had four other nucli suv
liigs bank accounts, began nn Investi
gation yesterday to locate these ac
counts. He has already questioned two
officials of a savings bank nnd other
bank olllclals will be subpn-naed. Jack
Hose has already told something about
Decker's savings bank accounts. Hose's
story Is that Hecker had brugced of his
success In getting money.
"1 have cleared up 180,000 for myself
In four months," Hrcker told Hose, ac
cording to the hitter's story.
Save for Stanlch tho most tmpoilant
witnesses before the Grand Jury were
Mr. and Mrs. Harry Pollok, It Is not
known of course what they testified to
Inside the Grand Jury room, but after
they left tho Grand Jury the,' told n
complete story of Hose's stay In their
apartments nt Itlverslde Drive nnd IS7lh

They said that Rose came to their
apartment with Sam Sohepps on Tues

Rosenthal had been murdered. Riw
was III and shaky. Schepps left him 10

all day Tuesday. He had received as

would he all right, hut he wns the kind
