WAR MADE 10 GNAlCE
IN BANANA Prices
This Popular Fruit is One
Commodity That Re-
mains Cheap
WHOLESALE PRICE OF
EGGS HAS DROPPED

Hurrahi At last one commodity
has been found that has not changed
in price for a long time. Bananas
do not vary in price" fruit dealers say
and have not changed in price for
many years. Practically every other
commodity has gone up or down and
mostly up.
But the banana, like the humble
brook of literary fame. goes on for
ever" apparently, and remains the
same in price. Someone has attempt
ed to maintain that peanuts also re-
main the same, but who ever bother
ed to count the number of peanuts
in a bag to prove the dealers have
not been taking a few here and there
ever since the present wave of H. C..
l.. began to sweep over the country.
There has been little change in the
price of food products for two or three
days. The wholesale price Of chick
ems and eggs has dropped, but so far
the retailer has made no change IN
his prices. Vegetables are not likely
to get much cheaper, according to
those in a position to know the condi-
ton Of the market.
Large quantities OF food products
are being shipped to Europe and the
demand has created a scarcity in this
country. Little relief is expected in
that line before the Southern crop
of vegetables becomes more plentiful.
Meats are remaining steady, with a
tendency TO an upward move in the
next few days. Tropical fruits are
plentiful and reasonable.

talk OF RECEPTION
FOR Delaware TROOPS

A movement has been started TO give
the Delaware troops now on the border
a fitting reception when they return
home. A person interested in the mil
itia, It is said, will appear before Com-
ell next Thursday night and propose
that a public reception be accorded the
troops upon their arrival No definite
time has been set for the Delaware mil
itiamen to return home.
Tentative plans call for a parade
through the principal streets of the city.
A band will be engaged and the troops
will be met at the railroad station, ac-
cording to this tentative plan. Cover
nor Townsend will probably be asked to
review them.
After this parade and review, the
suggestion is made that the militia
men be given a reception and ban
quet in one OF the big halls OF the
city. 1t is estimated this would cost
from $3.50 to 50 a plate or about ST.
200 for the entire dinner.

Skins FOR LOCAL PLANT
ON BOARD Hudson MARU

Between two and three million goat
skins consigned to American manu-
facturers. many OF them for Whining
ton concerns, were on the Hudson
Maru, which was captured by the Ger
man raider of Pernambuco, and now
at that port under charge of a German
prize crew, according to information
given out here. officials Of the Pyle
Leather Company admitted today they
had a quantity of goat skins aboard
the Hudson Maru, all OF which are
supposed to have been lost. although
no official advices have yet been re-
ceived from the ships agents in this
country
The skins are used in the manufac-
ture OF patent leather. Conditions OF
shipment and insurance on the cargo
practically prevent any serious inan-
cial loss, it is understood.

RECOVERY EXPECTED

Seven men we're burned by a fare
OF powder at Carneys Point plant OF
the dupont Company last night. All
were reported this morning at the
hospitals as being in no danger and
as having passed q comfortable night.
All of the men are burned about the
hands and face, and are expected to
recover.
The names Of the burned men are:

The FIRE started in a mixing house at

probable cause was q spark, It is be-
heved less than two hundred pounds
of powder was destroyed and but little
damnge was done to the building. The
house was equipped with an automatic
sprinkler. which subdued the flames al
most at once.

them being sent To- the Delaware Hos
pital. and others to the Physicians and
Surgeons Hospital
Because the night was cold the work
men had less ventilation in the mixing
house than usual. This was responsible
for an accumulation of gases, which or
dinarily would have passed out into the
open air. The ignition Of these gases,
when the spark was struck which start
ed the fire. caused the injuries of so
many men. most of whom would other

Such additional details as this indi-
eating the typical German thorough
ness with which the raider was pre-
pared and equipped led shipping cir
cles to predict a long chase by Allied
warships before the sea scourge is
cornered.
Certainly she had not been definite

and this despite the fact that a big

patches received today said that the
auxiliary British cruisers Macedonia
and Drama had arrived off Pernam-
buco. The most detailed description
Of the German raider yet given was
revealed by the captain Of the Neither
by Hall, in dispatches from Pernam-
buco.
"I began calling for help by wire
less the moment / sighted the raider"
he said. II kept this up until shot
across the bow of my ship showed it
was useless for me to try to escape.
The raider was equipped with several
machine guns in addition to her can

marines about six meters long, cap
able of being operated over a small
radius and equipped with torpedoes,
dynamite and ammunition.

captain Of the Radnorshire today gave
these new details of his experience

verted one Of her prizes into another
commerce destroyer:

the younger. Among them is the fact
that scrofula and other humors are
most successfully treated with Hoods
Sarsaparilla. This great medicine is
peculiar combination Of remarkably
effective blood-purifying and health

been tested for forty years. Get it to-
day.
