The remainder or her life was spent in wandering about Europe, the villa of Corfu, which later became the. property of Emperor William, being her favorite place or residence. As the years passed the Empress became more and more ec- centric, and at times her actions pointed strongly toward a. diseased mind. The suicide of her son in 1859 was believed to have unhinged her reason.

WEEKLY MARKET LETTER

The receipts of Island butter are in
creasing. Rather large shipments are
now coming from Hilo.
Select eggs are steady at forty cents.
Poultry is bringing good prices, but
the market is wei supplied at the pre-
sent time due to DE fact, that large
shipments have recently been imported
from the mainland
All kinds of green vegetables are
plentiful now and prices are about nor.
nal. There is especially. good demand
for sweet corn, new potatoes and cab
bage. The tomatoes in the market now
are better than those received for
sometime.
Alligator pears are getting moro
plentiful and of better quality. The
market is overstocked with lines and
prices are low. Large shipments of
vatermelons are coming in from this
island and from Hawaii and the price
has dropped from Sc to &c a pound the
last three weeks. Papaias are plenti.
full and cheap.
Dressed meats and live hogs are the
same as last week.

expects. to open its retail meat market

BY doing this they will get their meat

ccntage added to the selling price OF
goods by merchants to cover losses
from bad accounts. The Division win
employ a first class butcher and win
be in position to fll orders for beef,
veal pork and dressed poultry. As
there is very little mutton raised in
the Islands by small PRODUCERS It Is
not likely that it will be handled by
the Division.
The Division has just received fresh
shipment of .Soudan grass seed which
IL is selling for %, cents a pound in

DORTO RICO SELLERS
L BREAK LOCAL PRICE

New York advices yesterday stat ed
that the break in price of raw sugar
TO 6.O2c followed heavy sales of Porto
Ricos. The sudden change was not un-
expected. A study of the market quo
tations shows that in most cases where
prices remain horizontal at high level
for any continued period the change is
downward when it comes.
Buyers can always hold off lonrer
than sellers This is especially true
in the case of many Porto Rican and
Cuban sellers. They must either dis.
pose Of their crops at a discount to
avoid the heavy expense of storage, or
ship to market whenever cargo space
is obtainable, trusting more or less to
luck to arrange sales while the sugar is
in transit. Much sugar is therefore
" distressed - on arrival and has to be
unloaded at whatever price buyers of
