SUGAR co. TELLS HOW
 TARIFF AIDS PEOPLE

According to statement issued is1 behalf of Federal Sugar Refining com pany, .ithree months operation under the new tarifr shows that the con sumner is receiving all the benefit of the 25 per cent. reduction in the duty on sugar Since the new rates went into effect frehners selling price has averaged S.819 cents per pound, as compared with an average price for the last ten years Of 4.S5 cents per pound. The average in bond price of 96 degree test raw sugars for the same period has been cents per pound
 The average price of refined sug3r in other years, when raw sugars were se1lingSin bond at 2.09 cents Der pound, as compared with 2.04 cents now, was 40 cents per pound, in contrast with 3.819 cents per pound during the past three months. It Is. therefore. clear that a saving of .581 cent per pound is being effected by the reduced duty, which, figured on the amount Of su- gar consumed in the United States last year. namely. 3,74S. 1Ss long tons. or S.SS4. .6S1 .s60 pounds, would be equal to $4S. TIA, 708.
 While the 25 per cent reduction in the tariff affords some relief from the exceptionally high rate that we have been 1aboring under, the real benefit to the consumer will come in 1916, .af- ter which a further saving Of some $1OO, ,000, 900 a year will be effected

 The attorneys for the receivers tn- vestigafed the validity of the plr- chase Of the New Orleans, Texas and Mexico. which includes the Browns vile road, and concluded that the pur- chase was Illegal. because the New Orleans line has no direct connection with the Frisco.

EMPIRE TIIEATRE

Upton Sinclairss tremendously dar- ing story Of the beef packing indus try will be shown in motion pictures today at Keeney's Empire theatre. Despite the factfthat the same pie ture is now being shown in New r orlx City at 25s 50 and 75 cents admission. there will be no increase in prices at the Empire. The cast shown upon the screen Is a notable one including the author, MT. Sinclair himself. Geo Nash, former star of 'HThe Gamblers z tsOfficer 666,s and numerous other big New York hits, Miss Gail Kane. at the present time star of Seven Keys to Ba1dpa4e. which is now enjoying an all summer run at the GaIety theatre N c., Robert Cummings popular favoTtte with Bridgeport audiences through his former connection with local stock companies. Ernest Evers and fifty other principals equally well known and a host of supernu1naries.
 No better evidence of the desire of MT. Keeney and his local manager, Waiter Betts to give Bridgeport the very best in motion pictures could be submttted than the securing Of this wonderful picture play in five acts and 230 big scenes
 Mere words cannot express ade- quateiy the sensational and startling scenes enacted The inner workings Of the Backing houses are c1everly descTibed and shown and the hard- ships endured by the unfortunates who are forced to slave there that their families may live are shown by the author who gained his informa- lion first handed; having worked un- der an assumed name in the stock yards for two years gathering all his 1nfDrmatfon.
 The Empire still continues to be the coolest spot in Bridgepork in fact 1t is the coolest playhouse in the en- tire state due to the wonderful coo1= ing plan installed at great expense by MT. Keeney who is deternined that patrons of his theatre shalI be kept conf ortable regardless of expense.
