 Chicago. Feb. 25-The antclPa'ea advance in the price of tea, coffee and sugar to follow the next meeting of the retail merchants association of Chicago Is justified by present market conditions. according to local whole sale grocers.
 "This years crop of Japan tea is s.00o, 900 pounds short" said the man ager of one concern. This means q shrinkaEe of one-tenth of the normal crop In addition to this fact. 1t looks as if the ways and means committee of the house was going 10 put a duty of ten cents a pound on all imported teas, although all the importers and wholesale dealers in Chicago have sent a formal protest against such a tariff. Tea will unquestionahly advance in price very soon"
 The manager of another house said
 Although this is the dull season In coffee trade, wholesale prices are from a cent to cent and d half 2 pound higher than they were In November and We are looking for further ad- Varces soon. The principal causes for this condition are the agitation for aq import duty on coffee and a 20 Dc? cent export tax which has recently been placed on coffee by Brazil"
