SODA WATER BOTTLES
TO BE 5 CENTS APIECE
AFTER JULY THE lST
COMBINED ACTION ON PART OF
SIX COMPANIES TO PROTECT
THEIR OWN INTER-
ESTS.

The six soda water factories in this
city intend to start business on new
methods after the first OF next month,
having found that they have barely
made running expenses. owing prin-
cipally to loss of bottles. The max
ers have been selling their product to
their customers for 80 cents per dozen.
The bottle containing the product cost
ABOUT so cents dozen. As conse-
uuence II many of the bottles are lost,
the makers must necessarily be selling
their goods at loss.
The loss of bottles has of late become
quite serious one. This in principal
ly due to the fact that japanese hui,
said to contain about thirty-five per.
sons, has gone regularly into the bust
ness of collecting soda water bottles
and selling them back to the soda
water manufacturers.
It Is said that this hui has at pres
ent in stock 10000 bottles belonging
to the Consolidated Soda Water Works
Co, Ltd, 5000 belonging to another
firm and other large quantities belong
ing to still other firms. Besides the
loss of bottles the furnishing of extra
bottles to the dozen and the giving OF
special rebates reduced the price per
dozen TO about "a cents. Estimating
the loss on bottles at 10 per cent and
the furnishing of extra bottle at 10

ed 1850 and closed at 11.90c. The

the result of better cables than ex-

show materially improved condition,
led to realizing and some bear pres
sure. At last nights final, however,
bull support developed, checking the
decline, and when the bureau report
was read showing a less marked inn
proVement than expected prices were
bid still higher up, reaching level
about 7Q12 points. This was followed
however, by a fresh wave of liquida-
ton on the theory that the bureau did
not include the recent rains and that
the government crop report due on
Aug. 3 would show a condition prob
ably equal to last years. But after
closing a portion of the advance, the
market was again rallied by covering
and bull support, closing within a few
points of the best of the day on the
new crop options
old crop net 2O@30 points lower and
the new net COLO points higher. Sales
estimated at $50, 900 bales. 1t was stat
