SUGAR GOES UP
Local Prices Increased by War
Situation.


Topeka housewives have griev-
ance. Right now when the normal
Kansas jelly-making season - COM
mencing. the price Of sugar 10 COM
mencing to soar under the impulse OF
the European war scare. With an
advance half . cont . pound over
the counter in local gro6ery stofea.
and threats OF further advances in
Wholesale prices coming from the big
distributing markets, the outlook ~
indeed gloomy.
In the past week Wholesale sugar
prices have advanced so cents hum
dred, and there IN prospect that the
cost will move up to at least 50 per
hundred higher than it was before
tho war broke out across the ocean.
The explanation u that while the
United States gets its sugar from it's
island possessions. Hawaii. the Phil
ippines. and Porto Rico. and gets It
here without duty, It Is chiefly moved
in foreign vessels. which are being
called in on the seas for fear Of cap
ture by privatiersmens Of the nations
which are involved in the European
mix-up.
Prices quoted today by various To-
cal wholesale houses vary somewhat,
and a furry on the local sugar mar
Net has been developing in the past
day or two since purchasers have
learned OF the increasing cost. At
this season the sales OF sugar are
heaviest OF the year on account of
domestic fruit preserving, and every
grocer in town has been listening to
walls Of distress from his customers,
who are inclined to listen with sus-
picion to his explanation OF the re-
cent increase OF price on the impor-
tant staple Of canning season.
The fret raise went into effect on
Wednesday when a 50-cent raise went
on in the jobbing houses. BY Thurs
day the SO cents had been passed
along to all purchasers at retail. The
prospect held out by the wholesale
men II that within a week another
$3.50 raise will be made effective
everywhere. and that the price will
stay up until q radical change has
come In the shipping situation.
Other Increases.
That the shipping situation will at

cent increase. on the price OF i'm
ported Swiss cheeses has already
been made effective.

matter Of self interest, but was in
spirit Of her obligations under the
terms Of the triple alliance. however
unpopular the war in which she
fought side by side with Germany and
