Chicago, I, Aug. 10 Notwith standing the dissolution of the Nation- al Packinng Company, the corporate name of the so-called Beef Trust, the price of beef continues to soar to levels attained only'in time of war. That the people of New. York and of the Atlantic States generally will have to.pay an extraordinary high price for beef in the immediate future, trust or no trust, was demonstrated today when prime corn-fed bullocks at- tained In the stockyards the. top-notch Price of 10.10 per hundred weight, price not reached in this market since 1867, just after the civil war. A-three-car lot of heavy black steers, bred by A.W. Bragg of Tuscola, Ilinnois, sold for 10.10 a hundred, the first time in the records of the Chicago market since the war that beef on the hoof, except in the case of prize-winning single animals, has sold as high as ten cents a pound. The same figure almost was touched in another deal, when cattle raised by the eame feeder but slightiy lighter in weight sold for 10,05 a hundred. The high price commanded by the two lots of steers was due, it was sald, to the scarcity of choice cattle and the activity of competitive buyers to get a hola of especially desirable steers. It was predicted, following the two sales, that the price would go-even higher, the reason for which being the scarcity of range cattle. TODAY S MARKETS.
