Of the staff of life will be reduced to the
old 5-cent level. A secret meeting oil
the Boss Bakers Association oil Wash
inpion was held yesterday afternoon,
when. il is understood, decision was
reached to chop of the extra cent on
every loaf OF bread at once. The new
scale, or, rather, the old scale, will be-
come effective Immediately. The reduc'
ton in the price Of bread is the result OF
what amounted to boycott of consider
able proportions against the Scent loaf
This bread has been on the Alexandrls
market but the sales have never been large
The competition OF bakers not in the com
bine is also said to have been an instru
ment 10 causing the reduction. None
of the bakers would say TO what extent
their sales decreased during the time
cents was charged for bread, although
they we're admitted to be large.

that his visit to England would be the

Judge Parker.

E.opus. N. Y, Nov. 9.-Through
with the work and worry of political
campaign, accepting the overwhelming
defeat that came to him with courage
aud fortitude characteristic OF his att
tude throughout the canvass, Alton Is.
Parker spent three hours this morning
clearing up the debris OF four months
work about his villa. Then began the
active management of his farm, de
was cheerful, almost jovia!, aud no one
unacquainted with the man aud the
peoples verdict yesterday would have
known that be had passed through some
great political adversely. Some kilograms
we're received offering condolences or
predicting nomination and election in
1908. To some letters from personal
friends Judge Parker will reply at his
leisure. -,
1t is probable that Judge Parker will
issue a statement bearing on the result
of the election, but it has not yet been
written and will not appear until late TO-
night or tomorrow. To what causes he
ascribes his defeat, whether platform,
men or personalities, no one knows but
himself. Some Of his friends declare
that democrats ostensibly according him
enthusiastic support knifed the ticket
secretly. Others lay the blame upon a
colorlsss platform, but no word OF CEN
sure has vet come from the candidate,
and those who know him best, declare
that he has accepted the defeat cheerfully,
and cherishes no resentment. His plans
for the future, though they have been
discussed, have not been finally settled.
FOR a time, at least, he will remain at
Rosemount in personal charge of the
work upon his estate. Then, he will
undoubtedly begin the practice OF law
either in New York or in Albany, where
he has many friends. A partnership
may be formed, perhaps with David b
Hill, possibly with William F. Sheehani
or with both, maybe, with some one
else. But, while be may not again bt
his party's standard bearer, he will con
tinuo to take an active interest in 1T
behalf and be undoubtedly identified
with its fortunes the remainder of his

Attention was recently directed to the
fact that the Southern Railway Company

is apprehension as to where the decrease
will end. 1t is said that most of the re-
pair work heretofore done here is now
sent to Spencer. This includes the over
hauling Of engines, &c. 1t is believe
by many that eventually but a corporal
guard of workmen will be left here il
order that temporary repairs can bs MADE
