MARK FOR EGGS

The chief topic of interest these
days seems to be the high cost OF
living, and to those who run may
read, as most interesting figures
concerning the rising tendency OF
fOOdstuffs since the first of October
are shown in the latest statistics
compiled by the Agricultural de-
partment at Washington, from the
principal markets of the United
States. Flour is selling at prices
higher than at any time since the
Civil war. Meat has advanced so
that producers are receiving "a per
cent more than a year ago. Cheese
eggs and butter are bringing high
er prices for this time of the year
than a year ago, San Francisco
dealers predicting 70-cent mark
for eggs. Beans have risen 20 per
cent in a years time, onions SO per
cent and cabbage 40 per sent.
In Chicago, restaurant proprie-
tors have raised the price OF I'll
meat and egg orders S cents, and
the chicken pie that was formerly
purchased for 10 cents now brings
Is cents. New York restaurants
have advanced all prices, owing,
the proprietors say, to an increase
of from 10 to 100 per cent in all
commodities.
Potatoes are regarded as luxur-
les, Jersey potatoes having risen in
year from $1.70 sack to $3.50,
and they are expected to reach Sc
soon. Few of the hotels have ad-
vanced their prices, but many are
adopting the European CONVERT fee
which means that each diner pays
10 cents or more for his seat at the
table.
While the local markets have
been materially affected, yet large
percentage of the Holly country's
products are purchased by the peo-
pie residing as far as 80 miles dis
tant and welcome these fresh pro
ducts as a genuine treat.
The Holly country is rapidly COM
ing into it's own, and may eventu-
ally supply the entire country east
of Las Animas.

MOB ATTACKS NEGRO
ACCUSED OF STABBINC
Janitor, Cut and Beaten, Is Dy.
ing in Hospital.

A mob Of more than 200 men and
women pursued Thomas Willis, negro
janitor at 1900 Lexington Avenue, for
two blocks to 12lst Street and Park
Avenue yesterday evening, hurled him
to the street, stabbed him dozen
times and were beating and kicking
him when police reserves from the East
l26th Street station arrived. The mob
fed, leaving Willis unconscious. He
was taken tc .he Harlem Hospital,
where it was said he probably would
die before morning.
The attack on Willis followed the
stabblng of George Engle, eighteen
years old, of 2155 Third Avenue. Engle
also is in Harlem Hospital with knife
wound in his breast, but he is expected
TO recover. He says Willis cut him.
The trouble occurred when Willis
chased several white boys from in front
of the apartment house of which he is
janitor. Engle saw Willis hurting
stones at the boys and seized him. A
fight followed, in which Engle says he
was stabbed.

Won Falkenhayn Hammer
ing at Passes to Invade
Foes Soil.
KRONSTADT IS REWON
BY TEUTON BLOW
Enemy Has Massed Men
for Desperate Coup,
Bucharest Says.

London, Oct. s.-Advancing along the
seventv-fiye-mile front from Hermann
stadt to Kronstadt, Falkenhayn has
driven the Rumanians back upon the
Carpathian frontier of Pennsylvania
Kronstadt and Szekely-Udyarhely have
fallen into Teuton hands. Virtually
the whole of Southeastern Transyl-
vania has been cleared Of Rumanian
troops.
Bucharest announces tonight that
the retreat was undertaken TO insure
strong defence Of the four passes
leading from Rumania to Kronstadt.
At the same time it is apparent that
Falkenhayn has renewed the offensive
with enormous forces. mostly Germans,
and intends to strike crushing blow
at Rumania from this region.
"All evidence shows that the Austro-
Germans are bringing troops from all
other fronts in order to make a des-
perate coup in this region" the Ru-
manian communication asserts. Hin
denburg's plans for the elimination Of
the latest recruit Of the Entente are
apparently being followed out in every
detail by the man who preceded him as
chief of staff.
Unless King Ferdinand's troops are
in sufficient force to hold the passes
leading into Rumana. the next few
days probably will see the invasion of
that country from the north.
Bucharest states that the Rumanian
offensive has not suffered any cessa-
ton in Southwestern Pennsylvania.
The Rumanians there are reported
pressing the battle in the jul Valley,
near Vulcan Pass. and in the region Of
Caineni and the Red Tower Pass. the
sceno of Falkenhayn's first great vic
tory. In this region the Rumanians
had previously been forced back TO the
border region, so that only a compare
lively small slice Of Pennsylvania re-
mains in the invaders hands. With
the Germans in control of all the ter
ritory between Hermannstadt and Kron-
stadt. it will be extremely difficult for
the Rumanians to cling to their remain
ing positions for long. it is believed
here.
Meanwhile Bucharest reports that
the Russians and Rumanians are stead
ily moving forward against Macken-
sens army in the Dobrudia. Sofia de-
MES this, saying all attacks were re-
pulsed.
On the Macedonian front lull in
the fighting has followed the important
gains made by the Allied forces in the
last two days. The Entente units have
not had the offensive wrested from
them. but their attacks. delivered with
less than their customary vigor. have
all been repulsed by the Bulgars.
An indication Of the extent OF the
British victory OF yesterday in the
Struma is seen in the report than more
than 1900 dead Bulgar troops have
been found on the battlefield.
