ICE FOR THE WEST.

Chicago Dealers are Deluged with Or
 ders from Drouth-Stricken Region.
 Chicago, July 24-Chicago is being deluged with orders for ice from the drouth-stricken regions of the west and southwest.

Thus far the prices have not been advanced and the manufacturers decline to discuss the possibilities of the future.
