PRICE OF CHAMPAGNE
DROPS IN ENGLAND

LONDON. Nov. 9.-Since Chan
cellor Austen Chamberlain intro
duced his last budget there has been
marked reduction I'm the retail sale
Of champagne and cigars in England.
Cigar merchants say that during
the recent months clearances from
bond and importationS from Cuba
have practically been suspended.
The public, il is stated, refuse to
buy az the high prices necessitated
10y the heavy duty and the inha ted
cost of the tobacco.
In 1914 really good Havana cigar
could he bought at 40 shililngs to 90
shillings a hundred but today the
cost is more than five pounds a
hundred.
Wine merchants are a little sur
prised at the decline in the sale Of
champagne, as prices have not been
substantially increased. In many
cases growers have shouldered a
part of the duty imposed by the
bduget In the hope Of maintaining
the English demand.
