NEW YORK. April 27-The Tribune to-
day says: At a meeting Of the directors
OF the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul held
this week, the question Of the company's
Pacific coast extension was discussed. Ao-
cording to an interest Identified with the
road, the opinion was about unanimous
that the work Of carrying the St Paul
lines to Seattle should not be abandoned
One Of the largest stockholders said, how
ever, that the construction Of the road
would be delayed until reduction in the
cost Of material and labor had been made.
When recently seen, the president Of the
st. Paul company said chances favored the
abandoning OF the coast extension as a
result of restrictive legislation. The Pa
cihc extention from the company's western
terminus at Glenham, S. D., to Seattle and
Tacoma will cover 1.564 miles.

SIXTEENTH VACANT OMAHA

it is between seasons for this vegetable,
but 1t will soon be plentiful, quantities of
and as the quantity increases the price
next week will be appreciably lower. Lem
ons continue to be very high in spite of
the cold weather, but the cause of the ad-
vance Is due to partial crop failure, re-
sultng In the advent of eastern buyers
into the California markets in competition
with western houses.
The potato market will be higher and
high olass grades are becoming very scarce.
Navel oranges continue to rule strong, with
no prospect for any depreciation in value
this season. The next varieties Of oranges
on the market will be the st. Michaels, the
Mediterranean sweets, blood oranges, and
last of all, the Valencias which generally
arrive In time for the trade prior TO the
Fourth OF July. Cucumbers are easier and
lettuce, rhubarb and onions are becoming
more plentiful as the homegrown stun
is beginning to make its appearance on the
market. Some sweet potatoes are being Of
fered, but the supply is limited and they
will be out of the market within few
days and a new supply is not expected Tor
about two weeks. Cranberries are out Of
the market, as the season for this veg
etable is closed. Spanish onions are closed
out for this season, but the Bermudas,
both yellow and crystal wax, are taking
their places in good quantities. Water
cress has arrived, Of home product and at
reasonable prices.
The general volume of the grocery trade
has been unusually good and exceeds the
volume of that of 1906 materially. Prices
on Ie0neu sugar are pIdCtlCdlly lue bdlle
as those of last week, although the San
Francisco dealers have advanced prices %
cents per hundred pounds during the week
This advance affects trade of the western
country as far east as Colorado. Raws
continue firm and shipments during the
last half of April from Cuba sold at an
advance Of one sixteenth The Cuban crop
is practically all harvested and very few
centrals are grinding, whereas last year
nearly all were busy. The drouth In Cuba
still continues and it is asserted, will ma
terially reduce the crop of 1907 and 1903.
The cheese market has remained steady
while continued cold and stormy weather
through out the cheese producing sections
has held back pasturage and stocks Of fall
made goods are nearly cleaned up. Lower
