iaus are that is. the median
for date is the middle point In a
scale Of prices ranged in order from
lowest to highest.
In the Civil War the highest point
touched was 216 in January. 1858,
which is SS points higher than the
median for the corresponding month
in the present war, January, 1918, In
April. 1868. the median had dropped
26 points below the high level while
so far as is known. no general decline
in prices preceded the German sur
render last fall. The differences are
however, in general less striking than
the essential similarity, the bulletin
says.
The price fluctuations in certain
specific commodities, however, pres
ent great diversity. In some articles
the Civil war rise was vastly greater
than the rise during the present war
Such was the case with anthracite
coal, lead pipe, sugar. and hogs. The
Civil War rise in cotton was so grea,
that it was not charted. because a
chart drawn to the scale used with
other commodities would be over q
yard high. Wheat. wool and hides
have risen higher in the present wal
than in the Civil War. The course
of prices of iron. wire. cattle, corn
copper, bituminous coal. and potatoes
was not notably different.
