Dollar Eggs in N. Y.;
* Strike Is Blamed
For Sharp Advance
New York, Oct. 22.—The price of
eggs took a few jumps yesterday,
in the usual direction —upward. At
many retail stores the price a dozen
for fresh eggs crossed the dollar
mark this morning, and the high
level quoted at noon was $l.OB. Many
cheerful predictions were made by
retail dealers that the price for
' "strictly fresh" would climb to
$1.15 before night.
Housewives, foraging this morn
ing for these almost golden luxuries,
found that fresh white Leghorn eggs
were quoted at 9 5 cents a dozen
wholesale and at $1.05 retail. Most
of the retail stores were holding this
figure for the best grade. Storage
eggs were quoted at 58 cents whole
sale and 65 to 70 cents retail, while
fresh brown eggs were 71 cents
i-ad a'O cents retail.
Wholesalers attribute the rise to
the inability of the American Rail
way Express Company to move the
egg supply, owing to the strike, and
they say tha\ the prices will drop
when the supply has increased.

WEDNESDAY EVENING,
COMES TO RESCUE
OF ERZBERGER
Berlin Paper Tells Why the
Money Scheme Was
Abandoned
Berlin, Oct. 22.—Finance Minis
ter Erzberger has been so assailed
since, under fire, be withdrew his
plan of calling in all paper money,
stamping it, and issuing it again,
that the Berlin Political News
Agency comes to his rescue with its
explanation of why the scheme was
abandoned.
The plan, says the news agency,
involved the surender of about 40,-
000,000,000 marks' worth of notes
of all denominations, and of course
was aimed at luring out of their
hiding places the sums that had
been saved up and "put into the
stocking."
The task of enforcing and con
ducting the surrender and the physi
cal work of stamping each of stv
eral millions or billions of bills meant
a great deal of work for which men
were not obtainable.
More important perhaps was the
further fact that for a .quick re
distribution of the money a large
army of guards would be necessary
to escort the new cash to every ham
let and small town in Germany. It
would be impossible to send the
money in any other way, and even
under guard there was danger.
The agency cites the temptation
which great masses of money being
transported freely about Germany,
even under guard, woqld be to the
Sparateaists and the Communists, not
to speak of the average German
with his greatly decreased morale
since the war and the revolution.
The stamping of money and se
curities therefore can be considered
as done away with, says the agency.
Presidents of Three
Cossack States Give
Dinner to Americans
Ekatcriiuxlar Russia, Oct. 22. -
The presidents of the three Cossack
states of Terek, Kuban and the Don

Finds 40,000 Pounds
of Sugar Stored Away
New York, Oct. 22. —Food Ad
ministrator Arthur Williams found
40,000 pounds of sugar tn an up
town warehouse, which he ordered
placed on the market at current
rates.
Williams also unearthed two eases
of sugar profiteering. One was a
ease In which retail grocers charged
that a wholesaler and retailer had
been selling sugar for 20 cents a
pound. This grocer, according to
complaints, refused to sell sugar to
the trade and has been selling It
himself in combinaton with other
commodities.
The second case was a downtown
wholesale house which is charged
with having sold 5,000 pounds of
sugar to soda water manufacturers
in Brooklyn for $l,OOO, in which a
chauffeur was the "go between." In
one deal, it was discovered, 500
pounds of sugar were sold for $98.70,
and the seller refused to deliver the
sugar unless the purchasers took
brown sugar in combination. This
deal netted the seller 22 cents a
pound for the sugar.

Burton Makes Address
to Tokio Bankers
Tokio, Oct. 22. Former United
States Senator Theodore E. .Burton, of
Ohio, told the Japanese financiers in a
speech he delivered recently at a ban
quet tendered to him at the Bankers'
Club, that what the United States
nio3t desired was that Japan should
dj everything possible ' to promote
peace among the nations and "avoid
that spirit of impe-ialism which lias
so disturbed the world.
' What America asks of Japan in
the Orient," he added, "is a fair field
for competition in trade and no policy
of aggression toward other countries.
tVe only ask that no political control or
special privileges shall exclude ns
from entry to the ports and to the
trade of the Orient '
Speaking of the future relations or
Japan and America, Mr. Burton said,
"every interest points to amity, rather
thin discord."
Fortunes in Furs

usual heavy Arctic Ocean ice and
worked their way along the northern
rim of the continent to Banks Band

Over 2,500 furs were stored on
Banks Band alone waiting the boats,
according lo reports brought here.
For two yearn the ice has prevented

a result, the trappers on "the island

SAYS VIENNA IS
DYING TO MUSIC
Austrian Capital Is Victim of
Fast Spenders, Writer
Declares
Berlin, Oct. 22.—Vienna, ever a
gay city, is now more superficially
gay than ever, owing to the illicit
traders who have profited by the
war and now are spending their ill
gotten gains, writes a newspaper cor
respondent from the American capi
tal. Vienna, says one of these writ
ers, is "dying to music." He de
scribed the people as starved and
"morally degenerate." Describing
the scenes In the dance halls and
pavilions and gambling rooms, the
writer says that nearly all the peo
ple demonstrate a desperate demand
for youth and enjoyment and adds
that "this sickly whirl of enjoyment
bordering on self-destruction" pro
duces a frightful effect on the sober
minded people of the city.
Public amusements are provided
in the Pleasure Park and Schoen
brunn, where are given plays for
children, fireworks, alphine dances,
Tyrolese clog dances by Berchtes
gaden peasants, acts from Xphegenle
and band concerts.
One writor says that all of this
striving for amusement is only a
mask for perplexity and inability to
return to older and saner life or. evi
dence of heedlessness and indiffer
ence.
