HOME PRICES ARE GOOD Elgin Board of Trade Riises Stand ard In Anticipation of Heavy Imports, as Offset to Re daction in Tariff. CHICAGO. Dec SO. (Special.) Com mission men and other dealers In but ter and eggs In Chicago declare there hare been no shipments of these com modities from Canada to speak of since the new tariff bill putting them on the tree list went into effect. Some deal ers say thejr expect no heavy shipments -of butter and eggs from Canada at any time of the year, while others declare that not much of this produce will reach this market at any time of the year, because Canada needs it all for home consumption. What little has been received has been sent here large ly as an experiment, it is Bald, and the Canadian shipper received the same price as is paid the American farmer. While there have been no heavy ship ments of butter from Canada, several heavy consignments have been received from other foreign countries. Among these are New Zealand, Russia and Ar gentina. , ' Caaada ot Shlpplas Eft. We have had no shipments of eggs from any foreign country since the new tariff went into effect" said Rich ard J. Coyne, of Coyno Brothers. "We have had two heavy consignments of butter from New Zealand, but they have not been' heavy enough to affect tue price here. There has been Borne butter from Canada, too, but these ship ments were made as an experiment by the farmers of the Dominion. They have received the same prices as paid t- the 'American farmer. I do not know, however, whether they got more for their shipments to Chicago than tliey could have obtained lit the Cana alian cities. I am of the opinion, how ever, that there Is not much. If any uiffeience. Etf? are scarce and ship ments from all directions are nirnt. we have had no Canadian eggs in this market." John W. Ixw; of Warne & Low. and George R. L.inn. of Georgo W. IJnn & Son, expressed themselves along . the came lines. Baiter Conine From Abroad. "Our firm has had no shipments of ggs and butter from Canada," said Mr. Low. "We hava had some butter from i rgcntina. New Zealand and Russia, Tiut not enough of either to affect the prii:e to th consumer or to the pro ducer in this country. There may- be omo Canadian produce In this market next Spring and Summer, but this Is tlio Winter season in Canada, and the Dominion needs all its own produce. Prices there. I understand, are about the same aa in this country." That the Elgin Board of Trade ex pects. a rush of foreign butter to Amer ican markets, was evidenced when on Jlonday the officials of that organiza tion voted to raise the standard of Klgln butter from SI to 9J points. C IL Potter, president of the board, de clared that a reduction of t cents a pound In the butter tariff means that American creameries must produce a better grade to meet foreign competi tion in the markets of the United States. The change affects alt batter (.old on the Elgin call board and all that Is sold under the rules of that In stitution. The board also voted to amend the by-laws, extending Its terri tory from the upper Mississippi states to the entire United States. Butter made anywhere In the country under the new role, complying with the nualltv standards of the board, may be sold on the call board In the future.

Joaquin aimer. OAKLAND, Cal., Dec 20. (Special.) Has the ghost of the poet of the Sierras returned to his home on "The Heights? ' "Yes." declare those who say they have seen the unmistakable figure of the tall poet walking for a moment about the cairn ne built and where, in compliance with his wishes, his aahes were scattered to the winds. At other times these folks say his form has been discerned in the shadows, pausing beside the monument wtrich he built to Fremont, and gazing as If in meditation at the distant Golden Gate. Mrs. Abby Miller, widow of the poet, who is living at "The Heights" with their daughter, Juan its. says that she has many times felt the presence of her husband, although she has not yet seen his apparition. To Mrs. Miller there Is nothing un usual in this phenomenon. Between the rugged soul of the warrior-poet and bis wife she said there existed a perfect understanding, and to them death is not an impassable barrier.
