New York, Oct., 3.—[Special]— The first race of the series for the America cup, between~ the Colum-_ bia and the Shamrock, Proved one of the most oxcitable of any yet sailed for the grea‘ st of all troph- ies, but the boats were becalmed and the race was called off when within three miles cf the finish line, because the time ‘‘mit o ‘er the fif- teen-mile course hau ex ired. The starting gun was fired at 11:12 and the Shamrock appar- ently crossed the line at 11:15 and the Columbia one minute later. At t1:21 it looked as if the Shamrock was about 200 yards ahead, and ex- * citement was intense. Ten minutes later the Columbia crawled up until almost on even terms with the Shamrock, and it looked as if the race would be decidedly slow. Att 11:47, the Shamrock pulled rapidly away from the Columbia, either through a favorable shift of the wind or because of her being a better boat. The Columbia seemed to'be dead, while the Shamrock was a revelation to’ those. who thought her slow. in light air. At 11:55 the Shamrock lead bya quarter of a mile, but there was a calm, and at 4:55 the time limit of All meats in the Kootenays and Probably throughout the Province have been advanced an average of at least two cents a pound, This advance took place yesterday and is the result of a combination of cir- cumstances, : In conversation with Mr. R. D. Blair of the firm of P. Burns & Co., Mr. Blair said:: <* ; “The chief reason for the advance is the scarcity of Stock of all kinds, and especially of beef and pork. The wholesale butchers ‘are paying 35 per cent. more for live beef, pork and mutton than heretofore, and this advance has been going’ on since January. The wholesalers have not made a'cent since then, but instead have had heavy losses. In. of the advance in the cost "ot live stock the whole- salers have been compelled to raise the price of meats to the retailers and the latte haye:been compelled to do the same with the public. “‘The cause of the shortage was ‘|che war and the consequent call, for more pr ns for the Ameri: can.troops, .and- the® fact that all* ‘the young stock had been bought up before this.

Territories little attention has ‘been paid to. the keeping of the ranges, but the farmers have instead turned their attention to the raising of grain. “It is only a short time ago since Ontario purchased hogs and steers in the Northwest Territories and British Columbia. | Now the posi- tions are reversed and British Co- lumbia is sending ‘east,.to Ontario for live stock. . On the coast frozen mutton from Australia is taking the place of the native meat, and the same conditions are prevailing through the province. A year or two agothe Americans began to purchase all the young steers. they could secure in Canada and they have gone on doing it since, until it has become a serious problem where the supply will come from in the near future. ‘:The firm of Gordon & Ironside, of Winnipeg, which is the largest dealer in cattle in the country, has found the difficulties increasing and is not able to fully supply the de- mands made. The wholesalers have advanced the prices from ten to fifteen per cent., and the advance with retailers has been proportion- ate.”” reset it in order that Major Moberly may not be permanently lame. aac od ees At the International.
