JDl-'FEitS?N I-11'V. 51?.. May *..? 1 r.o existence in St. Louis of uniform ar.d fixed meat prices and the secret rebata in addition to the C. O. D. list, was shown by testimony taken at this morn? ing's session of the Beef Trust Inquiry. -Vitorney-Geiieral Crowe said to-day that the objections raised by the packers' at? torneys at Thursday's session of the Beef Trust inquiry docs not pertain to the validity of the anti-trust law, but only to the law authorising the inquiry. Maurice Prendiville. a St. Louis Union Market meat dealer, was the first witness examined to-day. Prendiville. testified that Armour, Swift, Nelson Morris and Ounahy had a fixed agreement regarding pi ices. ''The packers buy cattle on successivo days," said he. "so that each can buy at his own price. There is very little independent buying in the. East St. Louis ?lock yards. The big packers keep others oat by telling the cattlemen that if they sell any cattle to the independent buy? ers they must sell all to them." "Did you ever get a rebate?" ?was asked of Prendiville. "Four or five months ago I got rebates on pork from Nelson Morris. ?A.t one time the cooler managers told me that they had an agreement not to sell at less than six dollars per hundred. They wi.uld evade the agreement by selling some cents lower." "Is there an arbitrator in St? Louis?" Ci-ked ?\ttorney-General Crowe. ' The cooler managers meet every "Wed? nesday afternoon and form a. C. O. D. list and on Sa'turday they hold another meeting. 1 don't know who fixes prices for them, but they are fixed the last of each week for the week following." "When a man does not sell his cattle in East St. Louis," continued the wit nets, "and ships them elsewhere, thc packers send a dispatch ahead of him instructing the buyers to offer only so lt.tich.", AVilliam Tammo. of St. Louis, formerly city salesman for Swift, testified to a uni? form price at which salesmen of all com? panies were instructed to sell. Tamme said that the increase in the price of meat was out of proportion to the increase in the price of cattle. Ke scia 100 butchers in St. Louis had gone oi:L of business, and that the Mound City Packing Company and tho North St. Louis Packing Company had also re? tired. NEARLY TWO MILLIONS.

It is a curious and interesting fact that no one knows the age af the main building o? the Medical College of Vir? ginia. This circumstance is all the more nota? ble just now since the eyes of the people of the city are now turned to this an? cient institution, because of the finals of one of tha most successful sessions the college has ever held. More of the old time alumni are in the city at present attending the commencement than for years. Dr. W. H. Taylor said last night that he had never seen so many of the alumni here. It is of interest to them and to the public generally to know that no search, however diligent, has been rewarded by the disclosure of the age of the classic structure, which is the main building of this college. The faculty of the college have hunted in every record and asked every person whose age could give them any hope of finding out. Failure has faced them every time. It was said last night th.-s?i nothing had been left undone to get j this information, and yet it had not been j obtained, .attention was called to the remarkable dircumstance 'that this is so when the structure cannot possible ? be more than sixty- years of age. and likely not quite so old as that. Many men are now living who might easily remember events which happened even before that time. Yet all efforts have been fruitless. Tho college was founded as "The Medical Department" of the Hampden Sidney College in 1S3S. . But the struc? ture was certainly not buijt for some? time after this. It is known that the old United States Hotel building at Nineteenth and Main Streets, now the Methodist Institution for Christian Work, was used for some time for lecture-rooms. The next date that is known positively is 1S5*. Because of a disagreement be? tween the trustees - of Hampden-Sidney and the faculty of the medical depart? ment, the Legislature granted a charter to the Medical College of Virginia. But at the time the classic building had been in use some years. One more source of'possible informa? tion is? believed to remain. This is the files of the newspapers of that period These will be found in the State Library. ? member of the faculty said Inst night that he thought, they would be s"arc?)' ? thoroughly with the hope of finding out the date which is so elusive and puzzling.
