COFFEE PRICES ADVANCE AGAIN.


Cent Increase To-day
City prices Of package coffee probably will be
advanced another half cent to-day. This an
nouacement was given out yesterday BY leading
5obbers. The price OF Ariosa7 was put up TO
13T5c yesterday and to-day the jobbers expect
10 receive notice from the Eastern houses that
the other brands have been advanced. The only
explanation for the advance is the falling on in
last yeas crop and manipulation Of the market
Tor the raw product
Trade Commission row continues dull on
account OF the unfavoie,ble weather. But the
slow demand for produce is causing any
weakness In this market. Rather. the general
tendency is stronger The price OF kraut was
advanced to 40 yesteriav Oranges and grapes
were marketd up Is 10 50 cents too. And the
price OF onions was advanced Is cents. Poultry
and eggs hold firm at quotations.
