ELGIN
FORCED TO LOWER PRICES.

CHICAGO, April 26.-"The price of
butter on the Elgin market is going
down to 20 cents declared Thomas
Gallagher. one of the Chicago members
of the EIgin Board of Trade, yesterday,
who left at noon for Elgin with the
avowed intention of smashing the mar
ket and forcing down the price of the
creamery product. The price at which
butter has been kept by the Elgin
board is about 80 cents.
True enough. the price at 2:30 p. m.
was fixed at 90 cents.
Those fellows down there would
boost the price to so cents if it weren't
for the strenuous efforts Of the Chicago
members of the board" continued Gal
lagher. THE New York market quoted
extra butter at 2Sh cents today. Now,
there is no reason in the world why
the Elgin price should not be the same.
The Elgin people say they try to keep
the Elgin price uniform with that of
New York"
