grocers. butchers, dairymen and cloth
iers are charging for the necessities of

chance of them lowering and still
more the price may double before
spring. Some of the dealers in milk
are already planning to raise the price
per quart from cents to cents. This
is on account of feed being costly, bran
selling at $22 a ton, and hay $3.50 a
ton. At the meat m arket, dried beef
is being sold at 50 cents pound

IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.

General Superintendent H. A.
Boomer, who has just completed his
semi-annual inspection Of the Lake
Erie & Western railway, reports the
property to be in excellent condition.
The road has suffered probably more
than other roads in the West from
trolley competition. Still it's freight
traffic in the last year has almost
doubled in tonnage on the lines wher e
it comes in competition with the troll
ley systems. The passenger service,
which was reduced greatly when the
trolley lines were first opened, has
improved very much ard the earnings
are showing quite a handsome in
crease. The company has under con-
temptation improvements that will en-
able it to repair it's heavy locomotives
which it is now unable to do on &C
count of the limited shop facilities.
The New York Central people are
disposed to treat the l.. E. & w. with
more respect than formerly, as it is
proving more profitable to operate
under it's present conditions than in
former years.

states that Benjamin McKeen, gener-

pleased over the complimentary re-

his jurisdiction. Many miles of new
track have been laid. both the pas
