Groceries.

Inc SITUATION varies ubtle IrOm bnab as re-
ported yesterday. The movement is active.
Business has seldom been as lively in grocery
lines as it has been since the beginning of Sep
tember. Canned fruits show an upward drift.
Coffee options. under speculative influences,
keep seesawing. but packages are unchanged.
The effect Of trusts is to force the consumer to
pay about &c per pound more for his sugar than
he would otherwise pay. The few are enriched
at the expense of the many by the Sugar Trust.
The present drift is toward lower level.
