Missouri mule trust broken by army supply bid rejection
The government refused acceptance of mule hides for army use, splitting the Missouri mule trade. Desperate dealers in St Louis and Kansas City formed a trust as demand rose and prices jumped, but opening bids showed little difference in price. Hides were sent to Washington and reportedly rejected, prompting a scramble to offload animals at lower prices amid possible intervention. London reports indicate Vienna and Berlin coordination to push for peace through intervention after Spain-U.S. hostilities. Manila situation described as poor with refugees and naval protection for American interests amid ongoing fortifications and defense concerns.
