BREAD PRICES GO UP.
Chicago Bakers Say They Are Compelled
to Do It.

Chicago, April 19.-Following in the
wake of the action of Jewish bakers in
Chicago in increasing the price of bread
and biscuits, definite announcement
came today from President Matthias
Schmidinger of the Master Bakers as
ISOLATION that 1 cent and possibly 2
cents will be tackled onto the price of
bread before May 1. After a thorough
canvass of the situation, Mr.. Schmid-
niger declared that bakers throughout
the city face the alternative of charg-
ing more for their product or going into
bankruptcy.
The high cost of -four is not the
of Chicago. Their employees, including
the bakery wagon drivers, are demand
ing more wages More than so bakers
in this city have been driven out of
business within a comparatively short
time on account of the high prices for
materials.
James A. Patten, leader in the big
wheat campaign, remained at his home
in Evanston today and no comment
on the wheat situation was forth
coming from him. The "wheat wiz
ard" is planning to unload more of his
holdings of the May cereal during the
coming week and apparently is un-
shaken in his belief that wheat prices
will continue to go upward.
Flour dealers say the highest price
being paid for flour in Chicago today
is $3.50 a barrel. If wheat goes 2
cents higher, -four will advance to 81
a barrel.
On account of the heavy cost of
wheat -four, many housewives are now
turning to rye flour for home con-
sumption. Since the bull campaign in
wheat began the price of pure rye flour
has not materially increased, the aver
age ranging between $4 and $425 a
barrel Wholesale.
