Why Sardines Are Scarce.

Handlers of foreign canned goods.
whose troubles have been legion since
the European war upset normal trade
conditions, are now complaining of
the frequency with which contractors
abroad break their delivery contracts.
This practice, it was said in local job
biug circles yesterday, has obtained
to a wide extent in the matter of sar-
dine shipments. AS is customary,
firms here contracted with packers in
Norway and other couatries for speci-
tic quantities of the fish. Foreign gov
ernments, however, with agents on
the spot, have been offering the pack
ers much higher prices than the con
tract rates made with Americans, with
the result that the packers in many
instances r yielding to temptation
and jumping their obligations with
houses here. Scarcity of foreign sar-
dues in this market. together with
advancing prices. are the result.

there was where he got into trouble
A policeman stopped him and wished
an explanation. Mr.. Turner thought
the jokes that had been perpetrated
at the show had taken pretty well
with the audience. so he could not be-
lieve he vas being arrested for that.
Being a lawyer and sizing up the
situation, he at once began his argu-
ment for the defense. He explained
that he was no a real negro; that he
had been to a minstrel show and was
taking the shortest way home. Then
the policeman explained that a negro
had been murdered by another negro
IN that vicinity not many days ago and
that the police had been watching for
the offender.
Just why the police thought the me-
gro who committed the murder would
