JAMS LOWER IN PRICE THIS WEEK:
SUGAR RECEIVERS, ADVANCES A CENT

/ A slight reaction on the market was
! felt this morning when it was an
no',~ad that Scgar, which last week
dropped 8 dollar per hundred pounds,
today advanced to its former price,
and is now retailing for 1s cents a
pound.
The uncertain condition Of the raw
product, in face of the trouble in
Cuba, it was said, was responsible
for the change. 1t was expressed by
men closely connected with the situa-
ton in Ell Centre, that they were of
the opinion that no great difference
would be noted at the present time, or
during the next few weeks
Jams, which have for the past year
SCARED skywards with leaps and
bounds, can today be purchased at
prices lower than many months back.
The reason, it was said, is that the
present canning season, that has now
reached the apsx. has been able, be-
cause Of the sugar situation,
to can fruits Of all kinds, with sugar
purchased at IL cents per pound.
Thus, the principal commodity down
:he cannsrs were able to throw their
goods on the market at greatly low
cred prices
Another reason, given out account
ing for the decline Of the product was
the fight that has resulted between
the big and little Gamers. Each, in
the face Of the coming decline has
tried to place their goods on the
market at the lowest possible price,
rgardless Of profit, and the result has
been that some have inougurated cut
throat policy, which has resulted in
disaster to them, and profit to the
buying public.

San Diego tonight, for standing in the

Not once has Paddy entered the ring
without his second, who in herself is
nothing short of an expert in the art
Of handling the mitts. Besides being
the boxer Of the family, Mrs. Dillon
could without a coat of camouflage
