FALL IN PRICES.

The wave in high prices is sub
siding to a certain extent, as is
shown by Bradstreet's tables, COM
piled up to the first of this month.
Compared with the market quota
tions OF a year ago the table shows
an increase in wheat, corn, oats, rye,
barley, eggs, Goldfish, coffee, molasses,
salt, beans, potatoes, hemlock, leath-
er, cotton and it's manufactures,
Ohio and Pennsylvania wool, crude
and refined petroleum, and certain
other commercial staples. On the
other hand, a decline as compared
with a year ago is noted in beef,
pork, sheep, horses, milk, lard, but
ter, cheese, rice, peas, lemons, hides,
union and oak leather, Australian
wool, pig iron, steel billets, tin
plates, copper, lead, coke, nails,
glass, quinine, paper, bay, cotton
seed, and other items. Out of 107
staple articles of general consump-
tiOu taken 1O1 COIh pdl4SOb3 10 GIG
found to be lower than a year ago,
Al are higher, and II are unchanged
The decline from March l to April l
this year was found to average about
IL per cent. During March ~
staples declined, p advanced, and
43 remained stationary
Cotton and cotton manufactures Of
all sorts show the most notable adj
vance, for reasons we'll known. Build
ing materials, silver, alcohol, hoops,
rubber and tobacco also show adj
vances; but as the advance in these
things is due to artificial causes to a
greater or less degree, it is probable
that it will be only temporary.
The advance in cotton is more
likely to be permanent, and
as the decreases are in lines which
enter largely into the usual family
consumption, the combination of in
crease and decrease is one which
should benefit this section. On the
whole, it looks as if the time was
ripe for a decline in the cost of liv-
ing, although that must depend
greatly on the viewpoint taken.
