1t is astonishing how the growth of the
wine business and vineyards In southern
California has reduced the price Of wine all
over the country. OF the ordinary kinds
of wine very little imported wine is sold.
Springfield liquor dealers import the best
quality of California claret or port. the
pure juice OF the grape and unadulterated.

perfection itself, From the famous over
lures with whiCht the entertainment opened,
to the grand scene f'Om III Trovatore,"

steal feast.

which the PIttsburg Papers Claim q Firm
In That City Possess,
The Pttsburg Commercial Gazette, DIS
match and Times all came out yesterday
with an item concerning the purchase Of
90 900 kegs of nails By I. G. Boyle Il Co.,
brokers of that city. That firm recently
purchased 5000 kegs in a lot, and TIE
three papers mentioned above are unani-
nous in the statement that this fetal pur-
chase of 55, 900 kegs comprise the big palt
of nails in stock, and that this fact will
give BOYLE & Co complete control Of ths
market and will exhaust the stock on the
market. and the production, until mex
April, so that q small advance may BE-
looked for.
If these papers know the capacity OF the
neil mills in the Ohio Valley, they would
probably nct hsye made these statements.
Taking the mills included in the district,
between Steubenville and Bsilsire, on both
! ,ides OF the river, and ~. 600 kegs Of nails
would be their production in a run Of three
to four days. When q man or firm wants
to get a corner on the nail market, he vii
have to enter into an agreement with all
the nail mills 10 shut down until he can
bear the market.
