CHOLERA RAISES PAPER PRICES
How II Gets Hold Of Our Leading Lo-
cal Industry.

How 1t Gets Hold Of Our Leading Lo-
cal Industry.
The New York World of last Tuesday
had an article, which is of general local
interest, on the effect of the cholera out
break in raising the price of paper This
article states that there has been a sudden
and sharp advance in the price of an i'm
ported chemical, or chemical-made fibre,
which is absolutely essential in paper-mak
ing What is known as 'bleach, which
has been selling for long time at y to p
cents per pound, and lately at ?! cents. the
World says, cannot be bought today for
immediate delivery at less than 10 cents
per pound. 1t ran up to five or six cents
early last week and jumped to 10 on Fri
day night. No firm dealing in bleach
will sell it for future delivery at 90 to l2O
days for less than 81 to A. cents per pound.
Much of the "bleach'' supply comes from
cholera infected regions in Europe, which
furnishes the excuse for putting up the
price of that portion of it which comes
from uninfected portions of that CONT
nent Another chemical preparation equal
" important in paper manufacturing,
which is imported from abroad, is sulphite
and soda pulp fibre. 1t has gone up in
price from So to IS per ton.
Still another occasion for alarm in the
paper trade is the shutting out of all rag,
brought to the United States from foreign
ports unless fumigated under direction OF
United States officials in the ports from
which they are shipped, and fumigated
once more when landed at an American
port This order from the federal govern
ment has caused a scarcity of rags for max
ing book and writing papers, and has adj
vanced the price OF domestic rags that cal
be used for that purpose fully 100 per cent
-Four million five hundred thousand dollars
to s.. 200, 900 worth OF rags was imported
last year from Europe The result ha'
been the almost universal advance in prices
on the home market in all lines OF bool
and writing papers, and many manufac
turers of paper on which newspapers ar
printed have likewise raised the price o
that commodity.
