Year in the West
low Price of Batter Lessens Sale
of Butterine.
IRICE ON ORANGES GOES UP
Bonlhrm Storm Kerp Buck the
Enrlr Vegetables from Sonth,
hot i'lentV ' Expected
Witlaln n Week.
Trices on cats. suRar and butter, thrco
of the most staple articles ot tho produce
market, havo cill come down In the last
week. Eggs rt now telling at S cents,
butter at 9 cents and sugar Is selling at
twenty-three, ponnds for a dollar. These
are the only' thrtto articles on the mnrket
which reglsterca -drops-In prices during
the lest week. Alat Is the same; coffees,
teas, cheese, fruits and Vegetables are all
about the same, with fruits and vegeta
bles a bit higher In some lines.
According to Al King, manager of Hay
den'3 grocer' department, butter Is
bound to go still, lower, ns are eggs, while
sugar may or inay not decrease. Tho
butter must come down with the open
season, and egi;s always do drop In
spring. Butter W gradually forcing but
terlne off the market with the decreasing
prices. The total sates of butterine dur
ing the last winter wero ji.-obably greater
than during any previous winter. The
high, prices of butter forced people to
buy the lower priced article. Now, how
ever, butter is practically as cheap as
tho better brands of butterine, so that tho
demand for butterine Is almost nil.
The southern storms of the last two
weeks and the late frosts In ' that ter
ritory havo been responsible for a scar
city of vegetables. It probably will be a
Week before the vegetable market will
return to normal conditions. Somo prices
ere up, but they will not remain high
after the market Is readjusted.
Oranges havo taken another Jump ot
tfl cents per box In the wholesale price.
At the present rate oranges will soon
become as high as In past years. Pine
apples from Florida and Cuba should
soon be on the market Other fruits wilt
not commence to como In until later in
tho spring.

Large Qoantttr of Valuable Mer
chandise Htolen from Western
Auto Saien and Manufac
turing Company
A systematic robbery of the Western
Auto Bales and Manufacturing Co., 1714
Bouth Thirty-second avenue, which cov
ers a period of several months duration,
and which involves tho theft of hundreds
of dollars worth of goods, was apparently
st6ppcd Friday morning when Detectives
Dunn and Kennelly arrested II. L. Ham
mock, 3030 Harney street, an employe of
the concern.
A. W. dllman, president of the ffrm,
and also connected with tho Umpire
Motor company of this city, had for
more than a month discovered a con
siderable loss In the firm's stock.
Several weeks ago as the result of the
discovery, Floyd Bailey, foreman of the
plant, was discharged, but a few days
after his going the thefts again resumed
Its normal proportions.
After a careful watch Hammock was
suspected and arrested this morning. In
his rooms a packing box of accessories
valued at 110), addressed for shipment
to . Floyd Waller, St. Louis, Mo., was
found by the officers. .
Bcarcely an hour after the arrest a
telegram was received by Chief of De
tectives Maloney from Chief of Police
W. W, Gordon of St. Louis announcing
tho arrest of Bailey.
President Oilman had little to say of
the affair aside from the fact that a
careful Inventory ot the entire stock was
being taekn In an effort to ncsertaln
the exact extent of the loss, It Is be
lieved by the police that the greater part
of the goods will be recovered from Gt,
Louis where It Is evident that they have
been sent.
In tho meanwhile Hammock wilt be
detained at pollen headquarters awaiting
the return of Bailey from .St. Loulo, v'-ien
a. charge of grand larceny will probaol
be filed against him.
Tho police had been working on th
rase for sometime and until Thursday
evening had made no progress hi the
case. "An outside tip led to the evidence
which resulted directly In tho arreit of
Hammock.
