DROP IN PRICE OF EGGS.
Retailing IN Washington Today at IS
Cents Dozen.

With the present spell of warm weather
the price Of eggs has dropped into nor
NAL channels. They are now retailing at
- cents per dozen specimens There is
such demand at present however. that
the dealers say they do not expect a fur
Their decline.
High prices for eggs were the result OF
the severe winter and the using up Of
the surplus stock held in cold storage.
For while eggs reached the almost un-
precedented retail rate Of - cents pei
dozen, and there was even a strong pros
pect Of prices soaring higher. When the
weather moderated r. hens refined
business. and large shipments Of eggs
were made from the South and West.
Prices remained in the high attitudes,
however, for some time. owing to the
sudden and almost overwhelming demand.
Last Friday eggs retailed at 80 cents.
Since that time prices have dropped alb
ruptly 10 Is cents today
shipping agents stated that the guam
tity Of eggs received in this city last Sat
urday broke all previous records in the
National Capital
The condition of the market at the
present time is such that the usual clas-'
sitcations Of eggs as new laid" and
fresh have been dispensed with. All
the eggs have been shipped here. and all
are IN about the same class.

NEW LIQUOR Law
IS GIVEN APPROVAL
Excise Board Reports to the
Commissioners.
Thinks the Measure Will Cure Defects in
Old Regulations and New Features
Prove Beneficial.

The District Commissioners have re-
ceived from the excise board report on
Senate bill 1902 Ito regulate the sale OF
Intoxicating liquors in the District OF
Columbia. which was referred by the Sen
ate District Committee 10 the municipal
authorities with a request for informa-
ton as to the necessity Of the proposed
legislation.
The Commissioners some time ago
granted hearing to the nu-SaIoon
League and other temperance societies,
who favored the proposed bill which is
similar TO bills introduced at the two last
sessions Of Congress. The report Of the
excise board follows:
The board has carefully considered the
enclosed bill, Senate 1902. TO regulate the
sale OF Intoxicating liquors in the Dis
trict OF Columbia, and is Of the opinion
that its enactment into law would cure
defects in the present excise law and in
trOduce new features which would in a
great measure tend TO perfect a good law.
The board would respectfully suggest
that section OF the bill be amended by
adding after the word sold in line Is
the following words. To be drunk on the
premises Under a strict construction OF
this section If the bill became a law. a
grocer holding a wholesale liquor license
would be amenable TO punishment if he
permitted minor 20 enter the premises
for the purpose OF purchasing groceries.
The bill is intended 10 makeit plain that
minors shall not be allowed in places
where liquor Is sold &c be drunk on the
premises, while the present law does not
prohibit minors from entering saloons.
but makes il unlawful for any one 20 sell
them liquor
