Commodity Prices stlII High.

The Bureau of Labor of the Depart

report covering the price movements
for the past two decades, or from 1890
to 1901 From this it appears that, in
spite of the financial depression of the
last six months, prices were higher in
most lines at the close of the year than
at the beginning. The average price for
all commodities decreased only a little
over one point for the period. The whole
sale price average reached higher point
in 1907 than at any time during the pc
riod. The increase in the farm group OF
products was the greatest-namely, 1913
per cent. 1t was 4.6 per cent increase for
food, Sc for clothing, "a for fuel, 81
for metals, 40 for building material, 8.3
for drugs, SO for house-furnishing goods
and S for the miscellaneous group.
