Etiquette in India.
London Truth.

Some OF the papers have stated that Lord
Elgin and his successor will confer TO-
gether'' at Bombay when Lord Curzon ar
rives there. The fact is that etiquette re-
quires the departure from India OF a re-
turning ViceroY before his successor lands
IN the country. so that Lord Elgin and
Lord Curzon viii not meet. Lord Elgin is
to leave Calcutta on Jan. 5. and he will be
conveyed IN the Indian marine steamer
Lord Give TO Suez. The same vessel is to
carry Lord Elgin next month on his visit
20 Burmah. Lord Elgin is brought as far
S. Suez at the expense OF the Indian gov
eminent. but from that point he has TO find
bis way home at his own cost, this being
the rule In such cases. Lord Curzon has a
grant OF 5000 for his travelling expenses

The Flour Output.

In the month of November local mills
turned out e6,2O0 barrels of flour, against
30 257 in 1897, S5 359 in 1886, 645O2 in 1895, 50
500 in 1894, Al, 1856 in 1885, and 66,7S3 in 1892.
In October of this year the local mills
turned out s., 955 barrels of flour, 23,755 more
barrels than last month. Local millers
have been troubled of late to get as much
wheat of the grades desired as they could
use, which accounts for the falling off in
the output of November, as compared with
that of October of this year.

The Cincinnati Price Current Of Dec. ],
says: I'm most instances the quality Of
current marketings is good, though proba-
bly, averaging somewhat lighter than year
ago. The active marketing of hogs has
evidently been somewhat influenced by fear
of maladies. which in some localities have
prevailed more or less seriously. The more
confident feeling now existing in regard to
future prices of corn has had something to
do in inducing the movement of hogs at
current prices, and the lack of promise of
early tendency to higher basis. The actu-
al plentifulness of hogs has also been a
factor. The provision market has felt the
influence of the large offerings Of hogs, and
prices of leading articles gave way moder-
ately but at the close are steadier, having
been restored to a position about the same
as week ago. The current belief is that
while there is plentifulness of hogs, there
is not likely to be an inconveniently large
supply in the near future, there being much
confidence in operating on the basis of cur
rent cost. The distribution Of product is
well maintained, and foreign clearances
for the week were liberal, especially OF
lard"
